Hi my name is Rachel Skilling. I’ve been in the fitness industry for 13 years. I first completed my Cert 3 + 4 in Fitness when I was 22 to learn about how to become a fit and healthy adult. I became addicted to helping my friends and family with my new found knowledge and from there I stepped into running a small personal training business. I’ve had the pleasure of working with women of all ages and stages of life, paralympians, professional athletes and children. I’ve even been lucky enough to travel internationally to run fitness retreats.

During covid I studied Pilates. I needed something to help my mind during lockdown and I found it right there on the Pilates mat. Not only then, but during pregnancy I found the movement kept me well and feeling my best. Pilates saves me from body shaming and to love my post baby body, it brings me my inner peace back after a hectic day and shows me that you can do some pretty amazing things with some practice and consistency.

In my studio, I blend my knowledge so that my clients can practice a Fitness/Pilates fusion. I believe this is where our body’s find the most benefits. I enjoy helping others find joyful movement. I love providing challenge and celebrating the wins. I encourage others to think with another perspective.

Hi there, my name is Michelle Allen. I’ve been a healthcare professional for over 34 years, and for the past 14 years, I’ve immersed myself in the world of massage therapy and various allied health modalities. Along the way, I’ve had the privilege of learning from incredible mentors and working alongside inspiring colleagues.

I’m deeply passionate about understanding how stress impacts the body, and I’m convinced that embracing self-care is essential for a vibrant, healthy life. I strongly believe that at different stages of our lives, we require different therapeutic approaches to meet our evolving needs.

To me, being a great therapist isn’t just about mastering techniques or continuously expanding knowledge—though both are crucial. It’s also about bringing genuine intention: a heartfelt desire to help someone feel better, restore balance, and improve their overall well-being.
