Meet Amy,
Amy is a mum to 3 gorgeous, polite and very energetic boys! So, she has her hands full already however last year through all the chaos Amy gained her qualification as a Group Fitness instructor and we snapped her up straight away!
Amy's background is in education. She has taught in primary classrooms in Goondiwindi, Toowoomba, Dalby and Rockhampton before starting her family. She majored in Health and Physical Education as she believes encouraging young people to be active and involved in sports promotes a lifelong love of physical activity. Amy is now completing her Personal Training certificate as adult fitness training can be more flexible around her growing family.
She is currently running the mum's classes in Highfields and will do the occasional class in Toowoomba.

Meet Rio, she is a mum to 3 children, 1 boy and 2 girls and 2 very old Mini Fox Terriers. She has worked for 20 years in the community Aged Care industry and is extremely passionate about people staying fit and strong no matter their age.

In 2017 she decided to make a drastic change to her working life and obtained her Personal Training qualification. This was one of the most rewarding things she said she has ever done. Originally a Brisbane girl, she moved to Toowoomba in January 2020 and now enjoys the quieter pace the beautiful inland city offers.
