| Love your body! |
|
Our health is the foundation of our lives.
Our minds and bodies are linked in a dialogue that can create
health, or disease.
As a mature personal fitness coach with over 30 years experience
in teaching dance and exercise and giving dietary advice, my clients benefit from years of hindsight as well as continued
instructor training and development and a mind-body-soul overview. I specialise in weight loss, people feeling "lazy"
or demotivated to exercise or be fit, and people over 40.
IMAGINE you're creating the best body you can... feeling better, flexible, strong, co-ordinated,
fast, balanced, focussed and relaxed... looking better and less stressed. So worth it!
How I work
In or near South London and Surrey. I'll come
to you, your workplace, or meet in your local park. 1-to-1 or with friends, who will need a separate
fitness assessment.
You'll combine exercise with the power of your automatic unconscious mind to align your fitness
goals - exercise becomes easier, healthy choices more natural and success feels certain and happens immediately.
“In order to change the print out
of the body, we must learn to rewrite the software of the mind.”
Deepak Chopra, M.D.
Introductory
session (90 minutes includes free 30 minutes) involves appraising your health history, current fitness and lifestyle; you'll
set exercise and activity goals, realistic action plans and commit to writing a food diary for a week;
we'll do a mini exercise class/fitness assessment.
Subsequent sessions can be 45, 60 or 90 minutes, or up to 3
hours.
They say it takes 28 days to change a habit: I recommend as many sessions as you can fit in for
the first 6 weeks to get you on the right track and change habits for life!

Marjorie
Ellis Thompson, C3i :
"I first met Kathy when she was doing personal training, prior to her
reiki and life coaching business. She was a great motivator...unfortunately due to job loss and other events, I plunged into
depression. Kathy was the only thing that kept me going. I remember days of total silence, yet Kathy put up with a complete
zombie. Kathy herself has come through a lot of things in life and is one of the most postiive, joyful people I know. She
will enhance your life!"

"Kathy is an inspirational personal trainer. She gets the balance right between carrot and stick - getting you
to work out longer and further than you'd perhaps imagine you could, to maximise the benefits." - David Whistance, Photographer/Finance Director
"The remarkable thing about Kathy's personal training sessions was how adaptable she was. When
I was a pregnant mother, with a toddler, she would alter the class depending on whether we needed to be quiet for the
sleeping child or outside. She was careful to monitor my changing needs as my pregnancy progressed, keeping me wonderfully,
but safely, fit throughout. She even
had me using my children as weights to lift! We both really miss her now we are no longer in London." - Rosalind Whistance
Teenager needed to lose weight and
wanted to start university looking and feeling better about her body than before. She successfully lost
over 5 stone in a year, naturally, and is rightly proud of achieving her new figure and
becoming a lovely shapely young lady with even more confidence than before.
David, IT Consultant:
"I feel in great shape. I
have lost a stone and a half in two months. I feel better than ever and much more motivated in my work. Well worth
the money and effort."
S, City worker:
"The best lesson Kathy has taught me
has been about diet management and she has re-educated my eating patterns - which could be described as high in sugar and
disorganized. She is a great personality, full of light, life and energy and has taught me to fit in exercise whenever
you can, however you can. Kathy is a ray."
Marjorie, Management Consultant:
"Kathy's determined and persistent encouragement really kept me going.
She is herself a remarkable advertisement for sheer grit, tenacity and dedication and somehow manages to transfer these qualities
to clients of all kinds. I strongly recommend her as a trainer, life coach and great all-around human being!"

What you get with
Regular Exercise - A more efficient HEART. With increased activity, your heart muscle beats harder
and your pulse increases. It becomes a stronger muscle and takes and beats out more blood per beat = more
efficient heart. A slower pulse at Rest and with Activity. It uses oxygen more efficiently with its denser cardiac
capillaries; it's bigger; it recovers quicker.
- More receptive
BLOOD VESSELS. When they heat up, they dilate to let more blood through and control blood
pressure. With regular exercise, you build denser capillary beds and pass more oxygen and carbon dioxide - blood vessels
havemore efficient diffusion and are more receptive to activity.
- Stronger
LUNGS. With activity, breathing becomes faster, deeper - increasing the rate and capacity
of both oxygen taken into the blood and carbon dioxide breathed out. Functional muscles working the lungs become more
effective. Lungs become stronger and build denser alveoli beds which increases lung capacity and gaseous exchange.
Lungs recover quicker after activity. You breathe slower and deeper at rest and at exercise.
- Stronger more efficient MUSCLES. With activity, muscles heat up, increasing
their core temperature as more energy is being burnt; size and suppleness increase. Develop more capillary beds, become
bigger and stronger, burns more fuel (calories) even while resting - without changing what you eat and drink. Have a
leaner muscle/fat ratio, healthier BMI (body mass index) and bodyfat %age. Quicker muscle reaction, better co-ordination,
improved nervous system. Improved balance (thinking ahead - when we're elderly, balance and co-ordination
are really important)
- Stronger SKELETON.
With weight-bearing exercise (eg. walking, pushing), stress on your skeleton is increased. Longer term,
it becomes stronger through lines of stress: the cellular, honeycomb formation of the bone builds directionally to suit the
stress lines. The outer parts (priosteum) grow stronger; insertions to bones grow stronger; joints more stable.
More resistant to osteopososis.
- AND ... deeper, better
sleep. Calmer under stress. Look and feel better - skin, hair, nails, teeth, eyes... Fight off colds, allergens
etc. more easily; more efficient digestion. Liking yourself more! Buy clothes you want with the body you've
sculpted. Wear those Speedos/cutaway swimsuit/leather trousers! Get rid of dull, nagging procrastination
that comes with Not taking regular exercise. Less likely to get depressed, sick or diseased, or all three.
More Positive in outlook (all that oxygen feeds the brain, after all), clearer headed. Increase longevity.
Liven up your life!
Hello wellbeing!
MOTIVATE YOURSELF
Think Fit to Be Fit!
Research has proven that if we think fit, we
subconsciously and consciously do things to make us fitter. How does a fit person
think?
Use the stairs instead of the lift
Put
up a notice inside the lift:“Why not use the stairs?”
Walk Up and Down Escalators
Eat a piece of
fruit / drink a small fruit juice with water every couple of hours
to keep your energy levels up,
be mentally alert, boost your metabolic rate, release fat-soluble fats, and stave off hunger pangs in between meals
Take an air break! outside for a few deep breaths of cleaner air and sun Take
a stretch break! reach
for the sky, roll your shoulders and ankles, twist that torso and massage your neck, hands and feet - or somebody else's!
Sip water throughout the day
Drink 8 - 10 tall glasses of clean, still water a day preferably mineral water from glass bottles (work
up to it gradually if you’re not used to it)
PLUS, Drink
one glass per coffee/tea/unit of alcohol (dehydrating substances are often the cause of fatigue and headaches).
Dehydration stops the absorption of fat in the body and elimination of toxins and waste.
Ask me for more than 40 good reasons to drink water…
I'll email you.
