I’ve always had a keen interest in keeping active and enjoy a healthy outdoor lifestyle. I get huge pleasure from running, cycling and Nordic walking in the Hampshire countryside, as well as open water swimming and getting out on the water sailing my dinghy.
In 2015 I decided to leave my desk job and trained as a Pilates instructor and have never looked back. I love helping people feel great about themselves through controlled exercise, in a social environment and get huge satisfaction when my clients feel the benefits! I now run regular classes around the Winchester area and love the variety it brings.
Sports massage has evolved as a result of this. I was eager to learn more about the muscles of the body, how they worked intrinsically with each other and ultimately to help people with injuries and to realign their bodies. I trained in Level 3 in 2019, Level 4 in 2020, Dry Cupping in 2022 and finally Dry Needling and Taping in 2023. I now enjoy the one-to-one element of getting to know people and discovering how their different lifestyles have a huge effect on how their bodies work.
