Helping women over 50 become fitter, more confident, and more fabulous than they were in their 20s and 30s.
I'm based in Bayside Melbourne and I've been working in the wellness industry for over 12 years. My passion is women's health — specifically helping women become healthier, happier and more confident, looking and feeling their absolute best.
My particular focus is women navigating major life transitions — whether that's menopause, recovering from illness or injury, post-natal recovery, or simply a point in life where you're ready to put yourself first. Through a holistic programme of motivational exercise, nutritional education and lifestyle change, I help women regain strength, confidence and vitality.
I had a weight problem as a child, teen and young adult. Because of this, I lacked self-confidence and my quality of life suffered. Over the years I tried various diets which didn't help, and took up walking and aerobics which improved my cardiovascular strength — but not the number on the scales.
After following a dedicated fitness and nutritional programme, I lost body fat and became fitter, leaner and more self-confident. I became a Health and Wellness Coach so I can share these programmes with other women and help them become the best version of themselves.
I've created a programme that not only includes a body-changing regime, but also incorporates mindfulness training. By maintaining your focus through Qi Gong, breathing exercises and visualisation, staying on track becomes far easier. Towards the end of the package I also include consultations with professionals in cosmetic and styling services.
Most of my programmes are delivered online, but for Melbourne and Sydney clients I also conduct face-to-face sessions.
Each programme is individually designed around your specific needs, goals and lifestyle — because no two clients are the same.
Personalised programmes made especially for you. One-on-one and small group training sessions from Gina's private studio. Each 45-minute session is designed for your specific needs and interests — 30-minute sessions are also available. The studio features the Power Plate Pro 5, the only vibration platform certified as a Medical Device, which accelerates results and is ideal for clients managing joint issues or menopausal health.
Bringing all the good stuff together. According to the WHO, wellness is "a state of physical, mental and social well-being." Exercise and good nutrition are only two parts of the puzzle. Gina addresses other areas of your life to achieve a well-being state and promote healthy ageing. Mindfulness training reduces stress levels through meditation, breathing practice and Qi Gong.
Qi Gong is an ancient Chinese exercise that incorporates the use of the breath and physical movement to bring health and physical wellbeing. Mindfulness is incorporated into Qi Gong, making it particularly beneficial for people suffering from stress and anxiety. Online sessions available — suitable for all ages and abilities.
Nourish your body with great healthy meals. Perhaps incredibly important for good health and vitality, what you eat is one of the core pillars of the programme. Gina provides practical nutritional guidance to help you fuel your body well, manage your weight, and feel energised every day. Eat well, feel fabulous.
Gina designed a special program for my particular goals and needs. Over the years that I trained with her, I gained strength and confidence.
Gina is a great motivator and that is why I have been training with her for more than 8 years!
The results speak for themselves: increased strength, improved diet and a happier me!
I finally feel like I have someone in my corner who genuinely understands what my body needs at this stage of life. Gina's approach is unlike anything I've tried before.
Gina has been a Personal Trainer and Wellness Coach for over 12 years. She began her career at Fitness First's prestigious Bondi Platinum Club in 2006, then opened her boutique studio The Body Project in Bondi Junction and Paddington. After relocating to Melbourne in 2014 she trained clients at Goodlife Health Club, Port Melbourne, and is now operating from her studio in Bayside Melbourne.
