Life & Body Moves

Putting my focus face on 🤓

As a personal trainer, dance & mindset coach going through perimenopause myself, I sometimes struggle with the idea of how a coach is “supposed” to look.

For a long time, being fit meant looking lean, ripped, having visible abs… and honestly, my idea of what “healthy” looks like has changed over the years.

Now, going through perimenopause, my body is changing. And yes, sometimes I overthink how I come across.

Do I look like a personal trainer?
Do I look like a dance coach?
Am I representing what people expect a coach to look like?

But then I remind myself:

There is no “average” personal trainer.
There is no “average” dance coach.
There is no “average” mindset coach.

We are all different.

So let me introduce myself:

I’m not your average personal trainer, dance & mindset coach.

I’m a woman going through perimenopause myself.
I experience the changes, the struggles, the doubts and the frustrations too.

And maybe that’s exactly what makes me a better coach.

Because I don’t coach from perfection.
I coach from experience.

I understand that being healthy isn’t about looking a certain way.

It’s about feeling strong.
Moving your body.
Taking care of yourself.
And learning to embrace the body you’re in — even when it changes.

So yes… this is my focus face. 🤓

And this is me.

Showing up. Moving forward. And helping you do the same. ❤️

Life is faith, family, fun, food and fortitude

Besides teaching and coaching dance, I also give small group training and personal training in functional fitness at
Most people are not acquainted with the term functional fitness.
In the Netherlands we have a saying: "Wat een boer niet kent, dat eet hij niet!"
People have the tendency to be reserved with the things they do not know, nit even touch it.
But functional fitness is the foundation of every every day movement.
Every day movements are imitated, like lying on the floor and looking for something under the bed and to get up again is imitating a burpee, picking up a box of the floor and stand up straight is called a deadlift, etc.
So this makes functional fitness not an unfamiliar term.
This is the reason why besides dancing, functional fitness is a good thing to do. You also build up strength, mobility, flexibility and you also release stress, but other muscles and tendons are being addressed.
This makes it a whole and one system.

When will you come and follow a functional fitness class or a dance class?

Drie (3) weken geleden gaf ik samen met de 1ste dansworkshop - Back to Basics- van een reeks.
Naar aanleiding van deze workshop, wilde een deelnemer een personal danstraining volgen.
Het gestelde doel van de deelnemer: "Eén te zijn met het lichaam, body Flow!"
Alles begint bij het fundament, zonder fundament stort alles in.
Dit is deelnemer's review na het volgen van de personal danstraining (thank you)🙏🏾
" Niet streng zijn voor mezelf, door gedachtes hoe iets moet zijn beperk ik mezelf. Niet in paniek raken, stap voor stap rustig oefenen zoals nodig. Als je het eenmaal hebt, dan kan je versnellen. Vanuit eigen basis leven, geen act.
Wanneer je aankomt bij de studio, niet met je zware rugzak naar binnen komen (lading van de dag, etc.), laat het los en geef het moment voor jezelf."
Dancing is more than just steps, it's more than a movement💃🏽, it’s a lifestyle💞

STAY TUNED FOR THE NEXT WORKSHOP!🤓
