"When my mother went through menopause she told me that her body does not feel like her own anymore. I had heard that same sentence from multiple of my postnatal clients as well. That's when I knew that I had to do something about that. That is my passion and why I am here." (Liz)

Liz has been with me through varying stages of my life, helping to heal my slipped disc, strengthening my core through Pilates which therefore meant I could be pregnant pain free! Getting me in shape for my wedding, fixing my shoulder and giving amazing massages too! I am fitter stronger and pain free because of Liz’s incredible guidance and knowledge" - Laila
