About

Heather firmly believes that an active lifestyle is the cornerstone of physical and of mental wellness. A movement enthusiast from a young age, she has been active in sport and fitness for most of her life.

She confidently believes that the more you understand about how to move your body, the stronger and more resilient you can be.
