Fitness that fits your life

Hi, I’m Kate.

I’ve spent over a decade working in fitness and coaching, helping people get stronger, fitter and healthier — but the longer I’ve worked in the industry, the more I’ve realised that knowing what to do is rarely the hardest part.

Most of us know that moving more, eating well and looking after ourselves is probably a good idea. The difficult bit is making it work alongside jobs, families, social lives, stress, lack of sleep and everything else life throws at us.

That’s the part of coaching I love.

My approach brings together my background in personal training, strength & conditioning and health coaching to look beyond just workouts or food. We’ll look at what’s actually happening in your life, what’s getting in the way and what changes are going to make the biggest difference — without trying to make everything perfect.

A little about my background

Sport has always been a huge part of my life. I played hockey from a young age and went on to represent England internationally, before building a career in the fitness industry.

I have a degree in Sports Science from Loughborough University and have spent more than a decade working as a personal trainer, strength & conditioning coach and educator. Over the years I’ve coached everyone from complete beginners to CEOs, founders and high performers, both in and outside of the gym.

More recently, I trained as a health coach because I wanted to understand more about the bit that sits around exercise — behaviour change, habits, nutrition, stress, sleep and why knowing what we should do doesn’t necessarily mean we do it.

And since becoming a mum myself, I’ve probably become even more convinced that health and fitness need to work around real life — not the other way around.

I still believe in training hard when you want to. I believe in getting stronger. I believe in having goals and working towards them.

But I also believe in walks, holidays, dinners out, a glass of wine, doing exercise because it’s fun and occasionally doing absolutely nothing.

You don’t need to make fitness your whole life to be fit and healthy.
