I am a Gardener for the Wellington City Council looking after amongst other things Waitangi Park and the Michael Fowler Centre. Hobbies include golf and mountain biking and hanging out with the family at the Nix. I started spin classes soon after joining the gym in mid 2011 and after a year or so of Saturdays with Carol she told me I should be up on stage leading others, plus I love being on a bike. I started teaching late August 2013.

I enjoy inspiring newcomers and pushing regulars to strive for their best in an energising, encouraging and fun environment.

After battling a knee injury and not being able to play netball for over a year, I have worked hard on rehabilitating my knee so that I am able to compete at a top level again starting December 2015. I have been seeing a Personal Trainer not only to help with my rehab, but also to motivate me through a variety of different sessions. With my trainer I have seen great improvements to my cardio fitness and an increase in my strength – something I didn’t think was possible. 

Combined with my PT sessions and working at Exodus for over 5 years, I now have a great knowledge of exercise and how it can benefit my lifestyle.

Give me a call to find out how exercising can benefit your lifestyle too.

I am a fully-qualified personal trainer and competitve body-builder and have been teaching group fitness programmes since I was 17 years old. I am still just as passionate about the fitness industry today as I was back then! I have been with Radical Fitness International for past 4 years, and during this time have become a Master Trainer in Power, X55, Oxigeno, Ki Max, Figth Do and UBound which means that I now train people to teach these programmes.

The main highlight for me would have to be becoming a National and International presenter in these programmes, and getting the opportunity to share the stage with Radical Instructors from around the world.

I am currently teaching Power and BoxCircuit at Exodus, so if you want to experience a great muscle-toning, calorie-burning workout then come along and share my passion with me!

Tiffany wasn’t always a “gym person” but this was in large part due to not having any clue about what to do in the gym!

Now she trains up to 5x a week and she loves weights training! She has been seeing a Personal Trainer for the last 8 months to achieve her goals of being able to do 10 pull ups, increase the size of her upper body and develop her glutes. Safe to say she is just about there and very happy with the results so far and will soon need new goals to achieve!

Whatever your reason for getting fit, Tiffany can help guide you in the right direction to making your fitness goals a reality!

  • Pilates

Qualifications

  • Exercise Science and Therapy for Weight Training
  • Pilates Certified

After a major back injury in 1985 I pursued knowledge to improve my own mobility.

My previous experience in dance and competitive sport inspired my knowledge to broaden.

I am qualified in Exercise Science and Therapy for Weight Training Programming both land and water based, Group Fitness Classes, Massage, Equipment and Mat Pilates.

I have been teaching Stott Pilates since 2003. I was privileged to have Carla Hayes, Head Instructor from Stotts Head Pilates Studio in Canada, to inspire and train me through an intense course of Principals incorporating all forms of Equipment and Mat Pilates.

Through personal experience I believe Pilates has a place to help the seasoned athlete improve and prevent injury. To inspire those new to the health and fitness circle help with body mechanics awareness and to set up good exercise practices.

I am constantly growing my knowledge for improvement in the Health and Fitness Industry. I am highly motivated and have a passion to pass on an array of health improvements from people I have found to be an inspiration.

I look forward to meeting you in my classes.
