Testimonials from clients working with Alexandra
"I've been training with Alex for over 2 years. The changes in my body and mindset as a result have been profound. I'm so much more aware of how I move and how I hold my body, and I can respond to changes more effectively. My flexibility has improved a lot as well - I can touch my toes!
When I started training I ached all over and got out of breath after virtually each exercise, but my fitness level has massively improved. I actually enjoy running now, and I *never* thought I would say that. Alex has taught my how to run for longer and still keep my body light and relaxed.
I do a variety of different things each week - it doesn't get boring - it ranges from cardio to flexibility, to muscle training, to body movement. I don't miss going to the gym at all - when I do go the exercises there seem basic in comparison to what we can do in a natural environment.
My favourite exercise by far is tree scrambling, I love swinging myself from branch to branch in a tree. At the beginning I lacked the strength to go more than a couple of branches, but now I almost just flow right around the tree.
It still feels like the beginning of a journey - the more I learn, the more I find that there is more to learn and master, but it is a great journey and I have a great guide."

"I started working with Alexandra in late Feb this year [2015], and in the short few months have seen massive benefits in my fitness as well as general well being!
Her promotion line.. go from complete shut down to fully functional was designed for me, and I can say with confidence she delivers on that promise!
I had a lot going on when we started working together, and was resorting to stress eating to cope, going speedily down a vicious cycle where my fitness and general well being was concerned.. it took Alex a while to shake me out of that, but she adjusted her approach to suit my needs, ie – to suit my then fitness levels and also using language/messaging that would appeal to me and inspire me to go along with her suggestions!
I find myself fitter, more able physically, more in control generally, and more inspired to make wholesome choices, with nutrition in specific but my whole lifestyle in general!
I like the mix of 5 elements that she brings to her coaching the most – and I find a lot of coaching tips she gives me to help push my boundaries physically could apply to life in general, just as well.
So, all in all, a great 360 degree experience built on that symbiotic link between physical and emotional health.
Through our interactions on the 1:1 coaching as well as reading all the materials (blogs, fb posts, videos/webcasts), Alex shares very generously, I have also learnt the relationship between seemingly unrelated things causing the aches/pains and injuries.
I am learning how to use my body with greater awareness so as to help existing injuries and prevent any in future. I like that her approach is built on building knowledge and awareness of ones body and its use, and making small changes to get long lasting transformational results.
Another interesting learning for me has been how much I enjoy the outdoors. While I have always liked green open spaces, I never thought I would enjoy training outdoors.
I started training with Alex in Feb, through relatively cold weather and on an early morning slot, so I had my share of reservations on that, but I am happy to share that I have loved it more with every session.
It has helped build my resilience and hopefully given me something I could continue with going forwards, on my own!
She also actively builds and nurtures a community of like minded, interested folk through her social media activity – and I have found motivation through that community as well!
All in all, highly recommended!"
