I'm Joanne, but most people call me Jo, and I'm a Pilates instructor at TODAY Fitness. I am passionate about holistic health and wellness, and I spend a lot of my free time working on my health, including monthly colonics, daily meditation, walks in nature with my two dogs, and many other activities.

I fell in love with Pilates after my first lesson a few years ago and have been obsessed with it ever since! Being a full-time business owner and part-time instructor can be stressful at times, and I'm sure most of us can relate to being overly busy in our daily lives. I like how Pilates is a full-body workout that won't leave you exhausted or burnt out. It will not only help you gain strength but will also help with overall flexibility and improve your posture.

My goal is to create a fun and welcoming environment where you will leave feeling stronger, more confident, and, most importantly, smiling! So, the next time you visit Today, check out one of our Pilates courses and come flow with Jo!

“Compound lifts to long distance runs, I believe every aspect of fitness can be beneficial”

My aim is to encourage holistic practices that will improve your quality of life. I personally love all types of exercises from power lifts to long distance runs. I have learnt so much about myself and others in the health and fitness industry. I have personally made the weight loss walk, losing a total of 40kg within 10 months. It took discipline, determination and sacrifice. Helping someone that is aiming to better themselves each day has been the most rewarding role I have experienced.

I’m Jemimah. Like the doll from playschool- not as pretty; but significantly funnier.

I absolutely live and breathe fitness (weightlifting, boxer & Ex-Cheerleader) (however, can enjoy a doughnut or 16). I got into fitness at quite a young age, as I grew up constantly struggling with obesity for most of my child and adult life. No matter how large I was, I still consistently trained hard.

I am currently a counsellor, specialising in trauma and relationships. I’m also studying a Bachelor of pharmacy. I have previously studied medical science degree and absolutely love the medical, pharmaceutical & psychology industry I am in.

Working here at TODAY fitness really assists in tapping into the fitness passion I’ve always had sitting there,  that needed to be explored through actually working in the industry and helping people in any possible way I can.

Yes, I am here as a professional, however, there is always a time to humble down, not communicate like a salesperson & rather see if I can help you & meet YOUR expectations. So, please come for a chat if there’s any assistance at all you require!

As a dietitian and exercise scientist, I am passionate about sharing my love of food and fitness with those around me. My goal is to empower clients to develop positive relationships with food and exercise - it brings me great joy to see others feeling strong and confident in their bodies! Because every client is unique, I focus on tailoring my approach to the individual, finding what works best for them in order to achieve their specific health and fitness goals. My goal is to build each client’s self-efficacy by providing them with the knowledge and skills to make positive and sustainable changes in their lives. However, I understand that self-improvement isn’t always easy or straightforward - throughout the process we will work together as a team, with support and motivation through the tough times in addition to celebrating your achievements (big or small!).

I believe that food is nourishment for both the body and soul - it is something that brings people together and a unique love language! This is why I’m a strong advocate for ‘everything in moderation’ - I love trying new foods and being able to enjoy ALL foods as part of a healthy and balanced lifestyle, particularly when sharing a meal with family and friends. If I’m not spending time with friends and family, it is very likely you’ll catch me in the gym chasing some PBs or zoning out for some stress relief!

I genuinely care about others, and nothing makes me happier than assisting someone in having a positive, confident, and strong experience.I am extremely grateful to have had the opportunity to work in the health and fitness industry for the past ten years. My drive and passion have enabled me to expand my knowledge and positively impact others on a daily basis.

I believe that health should be viewed holistically because the mind and body work in conjunction. To truly excel and live a healthy life, it is critical to understand all aspects of health.

When housed within a healthy body, the Mind possesses a glorious sense of power – Joseph Pilates.
