Testimonials

    "Reflecting on my time before I started working with Nicole, I 

    had low confidence and felt like investing time and money in 

    my own well-being was extravagant. Since starting my coaching 

    with her, I have experienced a sense of structure and support 

    that has created calm on the days when I train with her. 


    There is no judgement if I am having a bad day; just gentle 

    redirection and achievable prompts that help lift me out of a 

    funk. My biggest challenge was finding the time to workout, as I 

    work long hours. Nicole has been a great accountability partner 

    and has helped me maintain consistency in my training, achieving 

    results I never thought were possible before. 


    I have a much better mind-muscle connection when training and 

    have achieved some sweet definition as a result. I have gained a 

    greater understanding of my body and how to fuel it correctly. I 

    now know that it's not all about lifting heavy and doing cardio; 

    slow, deliberate movements and mind-muscle connections are 

    much more effective. The holistic approach to wellbeing has also 

    made a big impact, being the happiest surprise in my journey with 

    Nicole".

    "Before meeting nicole I had no self confidence in the gym, discomfort in my 

    body, incorrect knowledge around diet and training and bad form. 


    When I tell you that Nicole has literally saved my life, I mean it. She has 

    completely transformed the way I view training and created the most incredible 

    safe space for me during our sessions. I feel confident, strong and knowledgeable. 


    This will be the best money you ever spend on yourself. Nicole will transform 

    you in more ways than you will think is possible. The things you learn and 

    discover with her are FOREVER and the way you take care of your mind and 

    body will allow you to show up in all other areas with more power, energy and 

    confidence. 


    Her never ending self development and education always amazes me! She has 

    soo much depth and sooo much to teach you".

    "Nicole is an incredibly skilled personal trainer. She knows how to train you

    to get the results that you want. She is super professional in her training and

    programming and takes the time to plan out your program to deliver results,

    not just decide on the day what random circuit you’re going to do to get a

    bit of a sweat, but not a lot of results. 


    I have an honours degree in exercise science, and have been an athlete for 

    many years, but Nicole has helped me gain more muscle than I’ve ever been 

    able to on my own, and in such a short period of time. I’ve also really appreciated 

    the holisic view Nicole takes on with her clients. 


    She understands that your hour in the gym is only a tiny part of your day and 

    what makes a healthy you. Sleep, stress management, gut and hormone health 

    are equally, if not more important in the results that you’re going to get, and she 

    guides you in where to go if you need help in these areas."

    "Nicole is an amazing personal trainer! When I saw her how dedicated she

    was training another client, I thought YES! She is the one I've been exactly

    looking for! She is kind, always with a beautiful smile, amazingly professional

    and dedicated, and funny! 


    I had a great time with her in the gym and I got the best result. I was quite 

    surprised that I don't feel lazy anymore for going to the gym! The most important 

    thing is that now I believe in my own strength which I couldn't earn without 

    Nicole's help."

    Nominated Nicole for Up-and-Coming Personal Trainer of the Year award

    2021


    "From a standing start, Nicole has walked into the Personal Training industry

    and stolen the show. Within 12 months Nicole has carved out an enviable

    high-end niche market and has captivated the hearts and loyalty of all who

    train with her. Nicole’s exceptional professionalism, passion and dedication

    has seen her rapidly establish herself and one of the most sort after trainers

    both within our facility and indeed our 300 strong national PT team."

    to have Nicole as my PT. She is very professional. 


    The train plan is personalized and scientific. I can feel and see more muscle

    health too.

    "Nicole is the real deal. I absolutely love her integrative mind, body and spirit

    approach to health, fitness and personal development.


    Since I began working with Nicole early this year, my outlook on my training

    has transformed for the better. Nicole has a wealth of experience and has

    helped me improve my form, execute new movements, step outside

    my comfort zone and unlock my strength potential (I have hit multiple

    new PB’S!!!)!


    Nicole also deeply appreciates that health is our greatest asset, and it has

    been so valuable to have her support and guidance throughout my

    journey both inside and outside the gym.


    Nicole upholds kindness and compassion in everything she does. She is

    personable, passionate, intelligent, and incredibly inspirational. I LOVE

    connecting with Nicole every week and highly highly recommend her as a

    personal trainer."

    "I have been working with Nicole for little over a year now and not only have

    I had a complete transformation physically but she has helped me develop

    new life style changes which have helped me mentally. 


    Before I started working with Nicole I was going to the gym with no

    structure and no idea about what I needed to do to get the results I was

    after. I don’t think I would’ve gotten the results I did without her, she pushes

    me to my limits and has helped me grow my confidence within myself

    which is more than I ever imagined."

    "When I initially started training with Nicole, I had one goal in mind:


    building my glutes. I had no idea training with Nicole would benefit me in

    so many aspects, both mentally and physically.


    Nicole is amazing in everything that she does. She is motivated and

    hardworking, and her positive approach to life is an inspiration to those

    around her. Her energy is infectious. Regardless of how many questions I

    ask, she always has an answer. On the rare occasion that she doesn’t, she

    dedicates time to thoroughly researching my query and comes back

    to me with a detailed explanation.


    The benefits from training with Nicole are not only felt in the gym, but

    also in my day to day life. She has taught me the art of mental resilience

    and which steps to take in order to get ahead in life. With Nicole, nothing

    is unachievable! Together, we have hit PBs and through always knowing

    when to push me to my limit, she has shown me that my body is far more

    capable than I previously would’ve thought. In summary, I am so grateful

    for everything Nicole does. There really is no one like her. If you are seeking

    to build strength, both mentally and physically, train with Nicole!!!"

  • Sophie Healey


    "At first I wanted to train with Nicole with one goal in mind – to gain muscle

    so I could gain a feminine athletic physique (#bodygoals)… Little did I know

    that training with Nicole would positively impact SO many aspects of my

    life and consistently be a highlight of my week! Nicole’s holistic approach to

    wellbeing quickly informed and motivated me to adapt a growth mindset. I

    quickly succeeded goals in not only my health, but also my overall happiness,

    my social relationships, my nutrition, my work-life, and she also encouraged

    a more loving outlook towards myself and my training. Within the gym, I went

    from feeling overwhelmed to confident in how to lift safely and efficiently to

    achieve many strength and aesthetic goals, the results have been incredible!

    I love this new life where I have the skills and attitude to continually improve.

    Without Nicole I don’t know where I would be! While training, Nicole takes

    care of EVERYTHING. She intuitively knows when I can lift heavier or harder,

    when I am capable of challenging myself with new exercises, or when we

    should focus on technique (p.s. my technique is pretty immaculate now!).

    She is always one step ahead, and every second of the workout is utilised to

    maximum extent. I come away from every session having learned new cues

    and skills while also having many laughs and fun while doing it. Nicole has

    become an important person who I value very highly in my life, and as a

    trainer, and her professionalism, extensive knowledge of bodies (and brains!),

    kindness, intelligence, holistic guidance, and inspirational energy is one I will

    forever cherish. She really is the best of the best! I recommend Nicole to

    anyone looking to gain new skills or improve their outlook on life :)"

    "I have been training with Nicole for a little over 3 months now

    and I can honestly say that the effort Nicole puts into her clients

    to achieve their goals is head and shoulder above the rest.


    The comprehensive health plan Nicole sets just makes sense, and

    I call it a health plan and not just fitness oriented, she takes a

    holistic approach to ensure everything is in check to maximize

    results, not just exhausting oneself in the gym.


    I personally sort out Nicole to help me get back to my athletic

    physic. After reading about her approach and experience with

    aesthetics I knew she would be a good for for me.


    Nicole is always on time, always prepared, and extremely efficient

    on the gym floor (I get through more in 30mins with Nicole then

    I have in a 45min session with previous personal trainers).


    Easily the best trainer I have worked with."
