Bio:
Kirstin’s keen interest in exercise from a young age sparked her love for all sports. Leading a very physically active lifestyle, it’s no surprise that she participated in triathlon at a provincial level.
This motivated Kirstin to obtain her honours degree in Sports Science from the University of Pretoria, South Africa. It was there, during 400+ hours of work experience in prehab and improving athletic performance, that she discovered her potential to positively influence the lives of those beyond the professional athlete spectrum.
Taking a holistic approach to life, Kirstin genuinely believes movement is a medicine that can create change in a person’s physical, emotional and mental states.
Kirstin has a passion for working with clients to provide individualised exercise prescription that is enjoyable for each person. In doing so, she is able to help alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression, and improve quality of life by boosting strength, stability, flexibility and confidence, whilst applying all the scientific foundations of sports science. Helping others keeps Kirstin inspired – there’s nothing she loves more than guiding them to achieve their goals, being part of their progress and putting a smile on their faces.
