Tess is a one of a kind trainer - I don't know anyone like her - she runs well organised training sessions that she tailors to meet everyones individual needs. She is extremely entertaining, flexible and no topic is off limits. She is motivating, refreshing and uplifting to be around, she knows her stuff, and more. After having 3 kids and carrying them around for far too long, I ended up with issues in my hips and lower back. I felt like I was living in an old ladies body. Having had 2 kids herself, Tess knew exactly what was going on and ran classes designed to target these types of problems for women. Her classes are never boring, she is like a book of far too many challenging but worthwhile exercises and the best one liners that will have you in stitches whilst working up a sweat. Thank you Tess, for getting this body of mine up and running smoothly again and for all the many laughs along the way x

I have been attending Tess's classes for over 18 months now, and its testament to Tess's energy, humour and keen interest in the health and fitness of Women that I am still looking forward to my class. Due to my schedule, I can only attend weekly, but I never get bored as Tess mixes it up each week. As a result, I feel more flexible and have built both muscle and inner core strength. Thanks Tess.

After suffering a debilitating back injury 3 years ago, where my spine specialist suggested I try Pilates before surgery, I found Tess. She was aware of my injuries and adapted exercises to suit my limited abilities and pain threshold. It is only due to her that I am now Pain Free, Medication Free and do not require back surgery. Tess knows just how hard to push us so we achieve the best results and the smaller class size makes her better able to assist us individually. I never liked exercise, but I now never miss my Pilates with Tess. She has got me where I am today.

Tess has revitalised my life! Her incredible knowledge and understanding of womens issues is unmatched. My body has tightened and strengthened from her amazing repertoire of specific exercises and her informative and exhilarating classes.

Tess is a highly motivated, inspirational and experienced coach. Her sessions are always well planned and adaptable to each persons ability. She is not just "any coach", but a friend and advisor. I love having her in my life.

I have been going to gyms for years. I'm White lycra tights and G-string leotard vintage. The last couple of years I've found it harder to adapt to the latest exercise "phenomenons". I love HIIT, but can no longer skip, jump on those stupid boxes or do the dreaded Burpee! I want to enjoy my time out exercising. I want my body to hurt (in a good way), I want to see results, but I don't want to pee myself or vomit in the process! Then I found Tess and her Zip Up Your Purse classes! Amazing! She's a pocket rocket, proud kiwi living in Aussie, a mother and a Superhero to her "Birds" that take her classes. Its like Pilates on Steroids! Tess constantly evolves so every session is focusing on a different part of your body. Today was clearly Arse day! I'm almost 50 and have found this program, the environment, the chicks who laugh and ouch with me, is the Best! I highly recommend and salute Tess for looking after the "Birds in their Prime".

My sex life has definitely improved as a result. Thank you so much!
