A Bit About Me
My passion for health and fitness has continued throughout my life. It began on a professional level before there was an accredited course available to gym instructors.
Most of all, I love helping others reach their own personal health and fitness goals.
Special interests include nutrition, resistance training, postural assessment and functional movement, and dance.
In the past I have also gained experience working for medical specialists, and, in the golf industry.
Interests

I have had the pleasure of Gail's services twice - with a third appointment booked for this weekend. On both occasions, Gail has been very professional and has provided me with exercise plans which I can actually succeed with and are even able to complete at home. The encouragement and ease of speaking to Gail, with her layman explanations, has so far assisted me in my weight loss journey, which at 6 months has resulted in a loss of 17kgs.

Gail gave me an assessment and a program at the Wangaratta indoor sports and Aquatic centre. She was friendly,down to earth a day very inspiring. She had great knowledge in offering me advice and encouragement with plenty of options with the vast array of injuries I hold. She provided options to incorporate when I am at work. I was very impressed with her experience, and would highly recommend her.
