“As a coach, my focus is creating an environment & community where you feel safe & confident. I love seeing our clients progress – not just physically, but mentally too.

It’s so common to only focus on the physical element of training and forget how incredible it is for every aspect of our wellbeing.

I created ReActive Coaching to be more than just a gym, more than just a PT studio. We will help you get leaner, improve confidence & build physical & mental strength & resilience which will help to change your life in all the best ways.”

ISSIE

Meet Issie – Super Mum & Compassionate Coach

Issie is a coach who truly understands the importance of moving well at every stage of life.

After developing sciatica following the birth of her children, Issie discovered first-hand how powerful the right kind of movement can be. What began as a journey to relieve pain and rebuild strength quickly grew into a passion for fitness and Pilates – not just for aesthetics, but for feeling strong, capable, and at ease in your own body.

With a strong focus on core strength, mobility, and functional movement, Issie creates sessions that help clients move with confidence and reconnect with their bodies. Her coaching style is supportive yet challenging.

She believes fitness should enhance your life, not overwhelm it. If you have a specific goal or simply wanting to move with more ease and strength, Issie meets you where you are and guides you forward with compassion, knowledge, and encouragement.
