My story

Exercise changed my life — now it's my work

I got into training because of what exercise does to people — not just physically, but their confidence, their health, the way they carry themselves. It's about quality of life. That's what keeps me showing up every day after 16 years.

I know life gets in the way. Family, mental health, not knowing where to start — I've seen it all and I have the tools to work around it. My clients don't just look better. They feel it too.

Questions answered

How much does it cost?

1:1 sessions start at $100 for 45 minutes. Book 10 and get 2 free — that's $83 per session. Online coaching starts from $150 per month. Prices vary by location.

What does a typical training week look like?

Ideally three sessions per week, a nutrition plan, messaging support, biometric tracking and regular progress tweaks. Some clients also have weekly check-ins for technique or accountability.

How quickly will I see results?

Some clients notice changes in as little as five days — water retention shifts fast. For real, visible change, most people start seeing it clearly around the four-week mark.

How do I book a session?

I keep a small client group of 10–20 people so availability is limited. Fill in the enquiry form below and I'll get back to you to discuss your situation and find a time that works.

Do I need a gym membership?

No. If you train at my studio, no membership is required. I also train clients outdoors and at home, so we'll find what suits you.

I have never worked out before. Can I still get started?

Of course. I've worked with hundreds of people from all walks of life, different body shapes and sizes. Everyone starts somewhere — I've delivered over 10,000 PT sessions.

Am I too old for a personal trainer?

Not at all. I stay current on how to train more mature bodies effectively and safely. Age is not a barrier — your commitment is what matters.

Where are you located?

I'm based in Auckland. Send me a message via the form below and we can talk through your training needs. I'd love to work with you.

Are you REPs registered?

Yes, I'm registered with REPs NZ, the industry body for exercise professionals in New Zealand. Visit the REPs website to find out more about what membership involves.
