Over the past 16 years she has worked with a range of people from high level athletes to postnatal women, and through her own personal journey with injuries and the challenges of losing weight after the birth of her child, she understands what it’s like to have setbacks.
“I gained 40 kilos when I was pregnant. I was tiny before and it took me forever to lose the weight. I discovered a combination of nutrient deficiencies; my mindset and adrenal depletion were keeping me fat. Once I addressed this and lost my ‘fat story’ after undergoing personal development work, the weight just fell off.”
Kate is a personal training mentor and has trained 100’s of Personal Trainers across Australia, in person and through her online courses.
more detail…
Kate worked in the IT industry for several years and would rise at 4am to go to the gym before work. Working long hours sitting at a desk took its toll on her body and she developed back issues. An earlier back injury flared up and sent her on a personal journey of study and work to try and rehabilitate her neck and back.
She started Personal Training and then bought a massage clinic. Her search for knowledge continued and she spent a year studying anatomy and massaging people, gaining a tactile sense of the body. Kate developed a niche of treating injuries and ran core classes in local gyms also working as a personal trainer. She facilitates her services through face-to-face courses, seminars and retreats and courses including the 12-week challenges and also conducts one on one online coaching.
Kate is a magnetic, encouraging, yet sensitive practitioner, using her broad knowledge base with her understanding of the way the human psyche works, to achieve a client’s health goals. This successful and energetic, single mother of one, loves to work out, relax at the beach and is an avid reader and writer. She loves dance and the opportunity to move her body to any beat from ballet to hip hop.
Kate devours self-development courses, books and talks, enjoys lifting weights, yoga and meditation and is motivated to be the best she can be in life. She lives her passion and is a super active outdoor person who inspires her clients to transform their lives and bodies from stagnancy to vital well-being.
