Tina

Tina is a 65 year old, semi-retired, very active woman- I’m always seeing her marching about the area; she always looks like she’s a woman on a mission! 

She has a lot of grandparent duties with her 3 pre-school age grandchildren – it’s hard work!

But she wants to be able to continue this for as long as possible 

She regularly attended group classes at her local gym and online 

However;

 She was frustrated with the lack of progress

She felt at a loss on how to improve but without causing injury

 She wanted to receive some proper feedback

It’s been so great to see Tina’s confidence with the equipment and in her own body grow each week

She’s felt more able to push herself that little bit more; knowing that someone is watching and knows her specific injuries

She’s only ever used a particular KG to go overhead and NEVER went beyond this, even though I knew she was capable 

Eventually, a month later, she felt ready to give the next KG a go 

She did it no problem, no injuries and she’s been unstoppable since!!

She’s learnt that:

doing it with others is encouraging

She’s not the only one with injuries!

It feels much less like a chore when you’re enjoying it

Having someone there just to watch and advise has made all the difference

She’s more capable than she thought she was

She now leaves each session with a spring in her step and can’t wait for the next one! 

It’s been amazing to be part of her journey, what a privilege! Great stuff Tina, what next?!
