Hi, my name is Koren James, I am just like you – I am forty-one years old I have three children, a seventeen year old boy and twins (boy and girl) who are 12 years old and I have all the same pressures that life throws your way with juggling business, family, study etc. I understand that you have a busy lifestyle and things don’t always go to plan - time is of the essence, BUT, I also understand how important it is to be fit and strong and lean to keep up the pace. I can help you achieve your goals so that you can enjoy your family, your health and your life to the fullest.

I have a Certificate IV (Personal Trainer), as well as a Diploma in Fitness (Exercise Therapist), I teach Pilates as well as general Personal Training so my focus is always to incorporate core conditioning in all my programs – the powerhouse or the core (the area between your last rib and your knees) is where all your strength comes from so it needs to be as strong and stable as you can make it. This area is often also where we have the most pain and the biggest lack of muscle tone – I can help fix that! As an Exercise Therapist I can help you with your rehabilitation needs as well, I will work hand in hand with your Physiotherapist, Chiropractor, Surgeon or Doctor to provide you with the very best, carefully designed program to help you to become stronger.

I grew up in a fitness oriented environment where my family always owned a gym (my dad was a body builder) so when I was 18 years old I became what was then known as a full time Fitness Leader in a gym in Gosford NSW (which is where I met my husband Michael – I was his personal trainer!). I have been in the industry in various capacities for 25 years, call me, I can help you.
