A Bit About Me

I truly enjoy helping people to reach their health and fitness goals using holistic principles. Along with Cert IV in fitness, I am also a certified Remedial Massage Therapist, so my knowledge of anatomy gives me an edge with clients suffering from pain and dysfunction.

I have always had a keen interest in how the body works as a whole unit and also when broken down into its individual systems. Food and nutrition were my first passion which I studied a lot for personal interest, then as a CHEK Holistic Lifestyle Coach (level 1). I am now very interested in assisting clients with their weight-loss goals and have added Gen Pop Transformation studies to my list of qualifications.

Learning never ends and I am constantly in pursuit of more knowledge to improve my own physical state as well as that of others.

Melanie worked with us for 7 years as a Remedial Massage Therapist. Melanie quickly built up a very busy successful Massage Practice with us while still maintaining her work as a Fitness trainer. Melanie was extremely hardworking, reliable and a joy to work with. She always behaved in a professional manner and was an asset to the business. Melanie's colleagues and clients were sad to see her go and we wish her well in her new work.

During the past 8 years I have been a client of Mel's in her capacity both as group fitness trainer and massage therapist. I have appreciated her encouragement of my efforts to balance exercise and nutrition, particularly as I am a type 2 diabetic. Mel's outdoor fitness program, which I attended for a couple of years at Coledale, provided for the specific needs of a wide age range. The class was always focused, with a variety of activities and a good vibe among the group. As a massage therapist Mel provided my wife and I her personal attention to the detail of our therapeutic needs.

I have always enjoyed keeping fit and have tried many different gyms and forms of exercise. However I have never been as fit and strong as when I was training with Mel. She is incredibly knowledgeable and qualified in regards to diet/health, strength and cardio training. Mel is patient, caring and non judgemental in her approach to training. She magically empowers you to believe in your physical ability and to build strength and fitness you never thought possible. Mel uses tailored techniques that are proven to increase fitness/strength and wellbeing. Mel quite literally changed my life, through showing me that I was much stronger than I ever imagined.
