about me and my coaching
I’ve been in the fitness industry for over a decade, starting out as a fitness instructor on the gym floor before moving into one to one personal training. At the start of 2024, I took the leap to launch my own personal training business.My passion lies in helping people discover a way of training and living that supports them in becoming fitter, healthier, and being active without extremes or quick fixes.In 2014, I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. This has made me appreciate the role exercise plays in maintaining health, strength, and independence, while also teaching me the importance of balance and sustainability.Through my Everyday Strong Coaching, I work with clients both in person and online. This isn’t about shortcuts. It’s about creating lasting lifestyle changes, finding approaches that work for you, and doing things differently to achieve long-term results.

Client Testimonials
I am currently an online client of Karen’s. I would highly recommend her for anyone hoping to start their fitness journey. My first call with Karen set the tone... she listened to what I wanted, took into account the time I had to work with and worked out a programme for me which we have continued to build on every month. I’ve gone from going for the odd walk to working out in the gym 3 times a week, walking and even starting to jog. I can’t believe who I am now! I love feeling stronger and like I’m doing something positive for myself. Karen checks in every week with you and is always encouraging.Deirdre ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I wanted to start increasing my fitness and strength, I knew I needed help to start me out on this journey (I was a complete gym beginner) that’s when I got in contract with Karen. I explained my aims and some concerns I had with some health issues. Karen took all this on board and designed a plan for me. We had sessions in person, and she sent home sessions through an app. All very accessible for even a beginner like me. Throughout our time, she would always be monitoring and adjusting the levels we moved on to. Karen also provided a comprehensive menu plan (nothing too drastic) but again very maintainable.
I’m so glad I decided to get involved with Karen to help me kick-start my journey. As a beginner, I feel her expertise and enthusiasm really have given me the drive to keep up strengthening journey moving forward. Thanks Karen!Gemma ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Karen is a very experienced and knowledgeable PT. She has adjusted my weekly plan based on my running and triathlon training volumes and really personalised my exercises taking into account specific areas of weakness. I have really seen the benefit to my running and triathlon performances this year. I really enjoy working with Karen and I know I can easily speak to her one on one if I have any issues I want to chat through.Becky McGrath ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
An excellent personal trainer with a wealth of knowledge and experience PT programs - well structed, challenging and enjoyable.Michelle ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Not only is Karen a fantastic PT she is also a beautiful person with buckets of empathy and ambition for her clients, she is a powerful mentor and going to Karen twice a week is the best investment I have made in my health. ÁineAine Mc Grath ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I genuinely feel very blessed to have Karen as my Personal Trainer. Having an autoimmune disease it’s very easy to blame that for not moving, working out, or all the bad habits that had crept in. Karen has listened to me and my needs and tailored my workouts to suit my ability. Karen understand both the good and bad days and is there for great tips and advice. I’ve learned different dietary habits and I’m feeling stronger and fitter week by week. I never thought I’d say this but... I look forward going to the gym each session and seeing the results and settling into a great routine. This is all down to Karen’s experience and understanding. I’m really looking forward to progressing to online personal training with Karen. I’m thrilled with my wins to date and really excited to achieve my goals and being a better, stronger fitter version of my. Thanks so much Karen.Sandra Barry ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Love training with Karen because she makes a personal training plan to help build you up and make you feel comfortable working out even when you’re a beginner like me. The sessions are then followed up with a weekly workout plan that’s easy to follow and keeps you on track and accountable. Highley recommended training with Karen, she’ll get you to reach your fitness goals and you’ll have fun while doing it.Nicole Server ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
