MEET YOUR COACH
Professional dancer.
Former Team GB gymnast.

As a former Team GB gymnast and professional dancer, structure, discipline and training have shaped almost my entire life. From training and competing internationally at a young age to performing professionally around the world, I was always working towards something. There was a schedule to follow, a standard to meet and a clear sense of who I was.
But I also know how difficult it can feel when that structure suddenly disappears. During the periods between performing contracts, I struggled with feeling directionless and no longer recognising the version of myself outside of dance. I still had the drive and desire to achieve more, but I didn’t always know where to channel it without rehearsals, performances or someone else creating the plan.
My own transformation became about far more than changing my physique. It meant finding something to work towards again, while understanding why I put so much pressure on myself to perform and achieve.
I didn’t need to lose my discipline or lower my ambitions. I needed a way to channel them into the life I had now, without believing that anything less than my old training schedule wasn’t enough.
That experience is why I created The MERAKI Method. I coach women who are used to pushing themselves and want something meaningful to chase: greater strength, a more defined physique and pride in what their body can do. We work towards it with a clear plan, honest feedback and progress you can measure.
Whether you’ve left the studio or still perform, your work ethic has a place here. Let’s give it a goal.

BEYOND THE STUDIO

A goal, a coach and a standard to work towards. You want that sense of purpose back in your training.
Random workouts aren’t giving you the strength or definition you’re working for. You want a plan that progresses as you do.
You don’t need to train for eight hours a day for your effort to count. You need challenging sessions you can follow consistently in the life you have now.
THE MERAKI METHOD

Progressive overload built for dancers. Challenging sessions centred on compound lifts, focused accessory work and clear technique standards. Know what you’re working towards and track your strength week to week.
Fuel like an athlete to build the body you’re training for. Practical nutrition guidance to support strength, recovery and your physique goals without restrictive food rules.
Honest feedback, weekly check-ins and clear expectations. Learn to use your discipline consistently, work through all-or-nothing thinking and treat recovery as part of your progress.

No. MERAKI is built for driven women from dance, gymnastics and sport, whether you’ve stopped performing or still train and perform. If you want structured, challenging strength training and honest accountability, we can discuss whether coaching is a good fit.
There are different coaching packages. We’ll discuss your goals and the support you’re looking for, then I’ll explain the relevant options, what’s included and the cost before you decide.
Tell me when we speak. We can discuss what feels difficult about tracking and whether an approach focused on habits and meal structure is a better fit. We’ll talk honestly about the support you need and whether this coaching is right for you.
