“Thank you so much, Leah! I’m thrilled to hear you’ve felt supported and encouraged in your fitness journey. It’s been a pleasure having you as part of the team and seeing your progress.
How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
I provide my clients with the education, motivation, and personalised support they need to create healthier habits and sustainable lifestyle changes. By designing tailored training programs that suit their individual goals, fitness levels, and schedules, I empower them to stay consistent and progress steadily. Whether it’s weight loss, muscle building, or improving overall fitness, I focus on creating a supportive and enjoyable environment where they feel confident and inspired to push their limits.
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
The secret lies in consistency, hard work, and dedication. It’s not about quick fixes but about committing to the process and staying disciplined over time. Having the right team of professionals to guide you—whether it’s a trainer, a nutritionist, or a support network—can make all the difference. Achieving your dream body also requires balancing physical effort with proper nutrition, adequate rest, and a positive mindset to ensure long-term success.
What do you love most about your job?
What I love most about my job is the opportunity to help people achieve something they initially feel is out of reach. Many of my clients start their journey either disliking exercise or feeling unsure about where to start. Watching them gain confidence, improve their fitness, and even start enjoying training is incredibly rewarding. I’m passionate about making fitness accessible and enjoyable, and I take pride in showing people they’re capable of more than they thought.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was inspired to start my own business because I wanted to take full control over my career and destiny. Being my own boss allows me to work flexible hours, build meaningful relationships with my clients, and create an environment where people feel supported and valued. I also wanted the freedom to implement my vision for fitness training, focusing on education, individualised programs, and creating a positive, lasting impact on my clients’ lives.
Why should our clients choose you?
Clients should choose me because I’m deeply passionate about helping people discover their potential and find purpose through their training. I focus on creating a personalised experience where clients feel heard, supported, and motivated. By integrating knowledge, experience, and a genuine desire to see people improve, I help clients not only achieve their fitness goals but also grow in confidence and resilience, benefiting their overall well-being.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yes, I offer both in-person and online training options to suit my clients’ needs. My in-person sessions are conducted at two locations: a gym in Chatswood and my private home training studio in Bateau Bay, Central Coast. For online clients, I provide customised training plans, regular check-ins, and virtual support through video sessions or communication platforms. This flexibility allows clients to stay consistent with their fitness goals regardless of location or schedule constraints.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
To prioritise client safety I strictly adhere to safety guidelines, including regular cleaning of equipment, providing hand wipes and sanitisers, and maintaining a safe distance during sessions. For clients preferring remote options, I offer online training, which I am certified to deliver as a health and fitness professional. My goal is to ensure that every client feels safe, supported, and confident in their fitness journey, whether training in person or online.
