Barre by Balancing Act has officially launched! T

Barre by Balancing Act has officially launched!
This has always been a dream of mine for many years.
I thought I would give you a little background of how this all happened.
My passion as a young girl was always dance and movement. I danced all throughout my school years. I even considered studying dance at university. But I injured my knee in my last year of school and I was probably a bit scared of going the “non conventional way” and chose to study business and marketing instead.
10 years ago while I was pregnant with our first child and living in Dubai, I decided to study the principals of Pilates and the anatomy of the body. I thought that could be a good back up if I chose to leave the corporate world when I have our baby and pursue my dream.
But moving to a new country, growing our family and a busy life meant that it wasn’t the right time for me. I still participated in all sorts of classes and especially during Covid - I became obsessed with moving my body daily for my sanity. I got into a rhythm of moving my body mindfully, it was like a moving meditation for me. I couldn’t go a day without it.
Last year, I took adult ballet lessons with some friends at my daughter’s dance school @chandlerdanceacademy 🩰 We even had a little part in the end of year dance show. It was so much fun but most of all it reminded me of my passion for dance and movement and how it’s just in me!
Early this year, I finally made the decision to go ahead and take the barre course with the fabulous @themethodnz. Best decision ever!
Once I completed the course, I practised on my lovely friends who showered me with encouraging words and positive energy! I got my confidence up, got that fire in my belly again and now I can’t stop 🔥
I can’t thank my family and friends enough for all the support!
And of course this ties in with Balancing Act’s mission, with my passion for wellness and empowering women to discover or rediscover their strength and confidence.
So I’m now proud to say that I am a qualified Barre instructor and ready to share my passion and energy with you!
For class schedule, check out link in my bio.
See you at the barre 👯‍♀️😊

I’m always so excited every time I pick a topic

I’m always so excited every time I pick a topic for @balancingactnz urban retreats.
I love sharing the knowledge with you and introducing you to my amazing lineup of instructors and speakers.
I’m also usually equally passionate about every theme, but I have to say I might have been extra excited with the last one!
Mindful movement + balance lifestyle is essential to my overall physical and mental health and I had to share all the nuggets of wisdom with you!
Thank you to the incredible Anne from @core__balance. With a last minute turn of events, Anne kindly accepted to teach the movement segment of the retreat, And what a treat it was for us! She was amazing 🤩
Thank you
@katrinabrowne.naturopath who’s depth of knowledge continues to amaze me! She gave us tons of actionable insights!
We had the most wonderful bunch of women, it was so nice to see the energy that a pack of strong women can create!
A huge thank you to the incredible @olyas_kitchen with her wholesome and delicious food.
And to @omyogastudionz for your zen and peaceful venue!

Prepping goodie bags for @balancingactnz urban retreat this Saturday.
It’s filled with wholesome goodies and discount codes from brands I LOVE! ❤️ 🛍️
Thank you to my goodie bag sponsors including @precision.skin @urban_herbalist_nz @goodmagazinenz @katrinabrowne.naturopath
Grab the last few spots from the link in my bio.
See you on the 25th of March (11am 2:30pm) at @omyogastudionz for a morning and early afternoon of HITT Pilates, and a chat with @katrinabrowne.naturopath and myself - kind of like a live podcast with the bonus of you being able to ask anything you’d like! It’s also always a great opportunity to connect. And you’ll get to try some amazing low inflammation food beautifully made by @olyas_kitchen 😋
So much to share! We can’t wait to see you! xx

I’m so excited to share @katrinabrowne.naturopat

I’m so excited to share @katrinabrowne.naturopath knowledge with you this coming Saturday!
Apart from discussing gut health and inflammation, we will also dive into “cycle synching”.
Women are cyclic beings and when we tune into our menstrual cycle — we get a deeper understanding of ourself and your body.
We will be breaking down what foods to eat and how to exercise so you feel your best during each phase of your cycle! And we will understand how women can actually use monthly periods as a productivity tool!
We will also touch on what happens to your cycle in the early perimenopause phase and beyond + actionable tools to keep you feeling good in your body and mind!
Now I know some might think it sounds daunting or all a bit idealistic but once you receive the information, you will realise how empowering it is to know all of this!
Can’t wait for you connect with Katrina and learn more!
See you on Saturday 🌺

It’s funny when I started to get into the wellne

It’s funny when I started to get into the wellness space, I was a new mother entering that early motherhood phase.
Seven months after our first child, we moved to NZ and I craved connection with other mothers but also knowledge.
I was curious about the psychological and physiological changes that come with this phase in our life.
And I noticed many other women feeling the same and craving that growth which is why I created Balancing Act workshops and urban retreats. A space for learning, self reflection and connection.
Fast forward to now, as I am approaching 40 (not quite yet, one year to go 😉) it’s yet another phase!
So with that in mind, I also think of my beautiful clients and their changing needs and concerns.
The beauty of this journey is that we are doing it together and I want to continue giving you helpful insights and tips so you can keep feeling your best as we grow together.
I’m so grateful for the amazing speakers and instructors I have gotten to know over the years and the collaboration between us is what also makes this journey even better.
Check out my latest workshop in link in bio about gut health and inflammation. It’s a goodie 😊 ❤️
