OWNER AND TRAINER 

With 14 years of experience in the outdoor group fitness industry, it's been so rewarding seeing so many member's health and fitness improve over the years!

My love of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu has earned me a purple belt and I have a passion and experience in boxing and weight training.  With all this varied experience, I love to mix things up so our members are always challenged and never bored!

I look forward to seeing you down at the park soon! 

TRAINER

I've been in the fitness industry for over 35 years now.
I started off teaching aerobics, then moved into National presenting, lecturing and competing all whilst still working at various clubs across Melbourne.
I was personal training for many years then moved into the magic world of  Pilates .
I love seeing the progression and achievements of our clients with the challenges of stability, mobility and anything else I present to them.
The group support, encouragement and motivation of each other here at BOF keeps me wanting to give the best possible classes that I can.
Wrap all that up in a big ball of fun and what's not to enjoy. 

TRAINER

I have a love of the outdoors - the fresh air, the sunshine, the ever changing conditions of the natural, outdoor environment. What I love even more is in helping other people achieve their  personal fitness goals in a group outdoor fitness setting.

That's me in the photo following my passion for long distance hiking and

trekking, which has in turn lead me into the outdoor fitness industry. 

I've loved every minute of working with Charlie down at the park, especially

in helping people move towards fitness goals they might had thought were not

possible for them, then seeing the satisfaction they get from achieving

those fitness goals! 

TRAINER

I worked in Public Relations in Russia for 6 years, spearheading campaigns for some of the largest pharmaceutical brands. However, from my first Zumba class, I knew that fitness provided the kind of connection for mind and body I craved.
After becoming a licensed Zumba instructor my passion for working out then took me to the Australian College of  Sport and Fitness where I completed my certification III & IV to become a qualified group fitness instructor as well as a personal trainer.  As a qualified Pilates instructor I am cultivating a holistic approach to health, I strive to help members master healthy habit change, breaking down internal and external barriers standing between them and better health.
I utilise my own personal experience and knowledge within the wellness industry and I have the ability to help individuals detect and correct imbalances in the body’s energy to boost performance and general wellbeing. I enjoy a mixture of Pilates combined with resistance weights based training. My sessions will push you physically and mentally, make you hurt in all the best ways whilst making you realise what you are capable of!
