H for Helping

Can I safely guide a person with no vision to the top of Mt Cannibal? Of course I can!

If you can dream it, we can do it!

The smile of a girl who just got home from her first 3 day intensive training weekend. I’m completing a Certificate IV in Pilates instructor training through

My brain is bursting with new information after three days spent learning from Miriam and I am blown away by her wealth of knowledge and so happy that I chose this pathway to take my Pilates journey.

Later in the year when I’m fully trained I’ll be delivering Pilates sessions tailored to individual needs, making movement more accessible in West Gippsland.

In the mean time I’ve got loads of homework to do, and that includes 70 hours of teaching practice! Would you like to be a body for me to practice on?

And here comes the pivot….

In January 2024, I started Pilates while dealing with a back injury that prevented me from doing most things and had me considering daily pain medication or injections in my spine. I ended up with neither, but I did acquire a new LOVE!

After completing more than 300 Pilates classes, I’ve taken the plunge and I’ve started training to become an instructor.

I’ve had the pleasure of supporting one of my clients to experience Pilates and I’m dreaming of delivering accessible one on one classes to people with disabilities, as well as instructing the Classic, Strength and Cardio classes that I just can’t get enough of!

Of course I’ll still be available for social support services too.

“It’s been HEATHEReD”

That’s what my client said after we cleaned out and organised her fridge and freezer last week.
We gave it structure, creating order physically and mentally, reducing the stress around planning and preparing family meals and hopefully reducing food waste now that it’s much easier to keep track of what’s on hand.

*this is a stock photo from Canva, because I don’t take photos inside my clients homes. Slide across to see the inside of my fridge instead 😜

Is there an area of your home that needs “Heathering”?

Today I helped a client to have a clean up at home and take a load to the tip.

As I reversed in to the bay I was thinking back to 4 years ago, when I would be so panicked if I had to do this. I really wanted to get better at it so I bought myself a trailer, asked around for tips and just kept practising.
These days I’m so confident that if you open your window right now, you can probably hear me talking about my trailer skills 😂

Lots of people fear this, particularly women. Do you know someone who could use towing/reversing skills? I’d love to help them grow their confidence.

Chat GPT knows I love an adventure. If you’ve got a goal, or even a thought of “I’d like to do that one day” then I’d love to work with you to break down the barriers to make it happen. Whether I’m on my own adventure or yours, I’ll always make sure it’s fun and full of laughs.
