I have been doing a weekly circuit class with Sue for around 7 months now and am still really enjoying it.I love that the class is different every week and the way Sue tailors every exercise to suit the individual. I took part in one of her Punchfit classes and thoroughly enjoyed that too - I was surprised how aerobic it was. I am feeling much fitter and stronger and have lost kilos and centimetres that just wouldn't budge before. Thanks Sue!

I have thoroughly enjoyed being part of Sue’s circuit classes for over 5 years. Previously I had not been keen to join a gym environment but I find her home setting and with Sue’s gentle and knowledgeable coaching, it has been very enjoyable. Sue is always studying further and doing courses to further her knowledge in all aspects of health and fitness. She treats each person individually regarding previous injury, fitness level and what they are comfortable with, adjusting the program as needed. The equipment and environment are clean and comfortable and the small group company is friendly and fun. I have found it a good balance of cardio/toning & strengthening of core. Sue has always been willing to share advice or follow up on any concerns or with extra information by email outside of class. She has always been very flexible and concerned for the well-being of each client.

Sue, thank you for your faith in me and encouragement these past two months. You have helped me believe this new world of exercise could have a space in it for me. One year later ... I've been coming for a year now and every single session is different - I don't know how she does it!" I also found ChiBall class to be beautifully soothing and full of grace.

Sue is a Godsend. Not only am I now exercising after a lapse of 15 years or more, but I am actually enjoying it. I am spreading Sue's virtues to whoever will listen. In the few sessions I have done, the classes have all been slightly different and I've lost 1.5kg which I have been battling to do for too long. Thanks Sue

I always feel energised after a PunchFit class. A group class but it feels like your own personal training session. Sue checks individual techniques and suggests improvements. (Unlike another fitness club I trialled, I was not even asked if I had boxed before).

I am a client of Sue's and have no hesitation in recommending her. Sue has given me the motivation and commitment I need to achieve my fitness goals. Attending a weekly session with Sue keeps me on track and focussed to do other fitness work on my own. She is friendly, approachable and passionate. Her professional knowledge and dedication to me is very reassuring and Sue always makes a positive difference to my day.

I have had chronic lower back pain for a number of years now and I was amazed, after attending my first ChiBall class with Sue recently, that for the first time in a long time the pain in my lower back seems to have disappeared – despite lifting my young 2 year-old granddaughter. Sue is a very inspiring, thoughtful and caring Personal Trainer who is always looking for the best way for the people in her class to fulfil their fitness goals. I also attend the Circuit Training classes and find them excellent. Thanks Sue for your ongoing support and encouragement!! I look forward to doing more ChiBall and Cross Training classes with Sue and continuing to improve my flexibility, strength and fitness.

Thank you Sue! You are one of life’s true treasures! You are such a gentle, thoughtful and sensitive teacher with a wonderful sense of humour and a joy to be around!
I used to hate exercise before I came to you! I’ve tried other gyms hoping no one would notice me down the back feeling like a total clutz!!

My experience in your ChiBall Class, Pilates Class and Friday exercise classes have ALL been so positive.
Thank you!

Thank you Sue, for the wonderful Reiki Session.  I had no idea what to expect.  It was so relaxing and peaceful.  And even though my eyes were closed I was so aware of the serene environment overlooking the trees, hearing the birds, and the lovely smells of incense.  The perfect package.  I would highly recommend you to anyone considering trying this practice.  Thank you so much.

Fitness at TopMarx is fun and a great thing to do after a long day at school.  It gets me motivated to keep healthy and fit.  TopMarx has given me an opportunity to socialise with friends that also come as well.

I recently attended one of Sue's ChiBall classes and thoroughly enjoyed the different type of exercise and look forward to doing another soon. The mixture of dance like movement, yoga and meditation makes you feel great and like you could cope with anything. Definitely a class to do if you have finally decided to find some 'Me' time!

Sue is fabulous! The fact that we have a lot in common running a household of five (mainly boys) and being passionate about fitness and health is only the beginning. She sets me up for the week, keeps me motivated and best of all tells me what to do! She also has lots of faith and is always positive and happy. Thank goodness for our weekly sessions! Thanks Sue!

I have enjoyed my Pilates sessions and have really got a lot out of them. It was nice to do something for myself each week and it felt good to be choosing something that would make me strong and healthy. Thank you.

I have been going to Sue's classes for over a year and I have been really pleased with my progress. The classes have helped with my other sports as they been focussing on strengthening my core. Sue brings great variety to the sessions from boxing to cardio to weight training. Every session is different and I always leave the class feeling that I have had a great workout.

I have been coming to Sue’s studio for a couple of years now.  I cannot express enough gratitude to Sue for all she has done for me.  I have attended Personal Training, ChiBall, Fire ChiBall Yoga and Pilates classes (in different combinations over the years).  Sue makes each person in the class feel unique and valuable.  She inspires and encourages just by the way she is.  I feel stronger and fitter than I have in decades.  I hear Sue’s words echoing in my head each day as I go along my business (exercise or daily challenges): "I am strong!" Yes, I am strong Sue.  Inside and out.  Thanks to you!!

After my first evening ChiBall class I had the best sleep I've had in a couple of years. I found the class to be totally relaxing and rewarding. It went beyond a good night's sleep as the following day I felt extra energised, centred and ready to take on the world. I look forward to feeling the benefits of my weekly ChiBall class - thanks for sharing it with us Sue!
