Jackie is a Woonona personal trainer. Jackie's love and interest for physical activity began when she was introduced to gymnastics at the age of 5. She trained, performed and competed in Gymnastics for 13 years, coaching for 7 of those years and retired at the end of 2007.
In 2008, Jackie completed her personal training qualifications followed by a Diploma in Fitness in mid 2009. In that same year she was employed at Fernwood and has been working there ever since, first as a member motivator and now a personal trainer.

Another one of her clients was awarded 1st place and has maintained her Personal training sessions with her trusting in her to maintain her health and fitness - something Jackie is proud to do.
Training Style & Influences
With her gymnastics background, a sport which covers every aspect of physical activity; strength, flexibility, balance, co-ordination, agility, speed, power and endurance, my training style is to cover all these aspects over time. I know the importance of working every aspect of the body, both physically - with strength, flexibility etc and mentally - with co-ordination, agility etc.
