My Movement Mentor
We are passionate about helping clients to manage their health, wellbeing and independence with exercise designed to suit their goals and physical/medical conditions.

Education and empowerment are key to helping a client understand their condition and how to use movement to better manage it. This knowledge provides a solid platform to ensure safety, confidence and empowerment.
​
We ensure that a client feels ownership of their goals and we provide the knowledge, support and encouragement for them to succeed. Every client is unique and therefore every prescription is personalised.
