I trained as a teacher, spent 5 years in media and marketing, quit my job sold everything and moved to Greece. I ran out of money, sailed across the Atlantic, then spent two years working on a super yacht. I've broken both my kneecaps, ended up in a wheelchair, and ran a Marathon. I train five days a week either in the gym, running or a class. I have have two beautiful daughters, a wife and an obsession for peanut butter.

For me, it’s not just exercise—it’s about celebrating our body’s potential and finding joy in every movement. As a mother of two, staying fit and healthy is crucial. It helps me be a better mum, full of energy and positivity. Balancing fitness with family life keeps me grounded and focused. I’m excited to create a welcoming space where everyone can thrive. Whether through group classes or personal training, or your own independent workouts, my goal is to support you on your fitness journey and make it enjoyable. If you see me in the club, feel free to come over for a chat, I'm always happy to help.

I am the Manager here at Anytime Fitness Cashmere. I'm from South Africa and have been living in New Zealand since 2016. I am married to an American, and we have a Kiwi 2 year old boy. I've been in the fitness industry for over a decade now, and love it more and more every day. Fitness is for everyone, it's about you being a part of the journey to becoming a better version of yourself. That is probably my favourite thing about Cashmere, the culture. Everyone is so welcoming and encouraging, members and staff alike. They're all here to encourage and support you along your journey.

"Nothing feels as good as strong feels" You can call me Em! I became a Personal Trainer after I found my love for exercise, through my own personal struggles, and now I'm insanely passionate about helping others get in to the club! My role in the office is to help create the sense of community that I always felt as a member. To me this is the most important part of a gym! I stand by living a balanced lifestyle. I want to help you find your confidence, without giving up the things that you love the most.

I’m passionate about helping people feel strong, confident and capable both inside and outside of the gym. My goal is to help people reach their goals in a way that feels realistic and personal to them, whether that’s building strength, confidence or simply moving with more ease in everyday life. Alongside coaching, I’m currently completing a Bachelor of Counselling giving me a holistic approach to health and wellbeing. I love working with anyone ready to improve their health, and am here to support your journey and celebrate your wins with you.

Everyone has their own reason for going to the gym, but the goal is self-improvement. I used to avoid crowded gyms and train alone, it was when I joined a public gym that I was introduced to supportive friends and staff who helped me push past my limits. This experience changed my perspective and inspired me to help others achieve their goals and build a healthier lifestyle.

While studying at Otago University I gained a Bachelor of Physical Education honours degree majoring in Exercise Prescription, where I focused on physical activity across many medical and health conditions. As a coach I use my knowledge to help you achieve your goals, set up individualised plans for safe sustainable exercise and help you gain confidence in yourself and your ability throughout your health and fitness journey. With nearly 20 years’ experience in exercise prescription and personal training for health, I have witnessed the positive difference exercise can make across all ages and stages of life.
