Coaching with Anna has been such a positive experience for me. It really resonated with me when she talked about being the director of your life and managing the various parts or actors. She’s supportive, insightful, and has helped me see real shifts in how I think and approach my life. I’m really grateful for her guidance and growth through sessions.

Working with Anna has been one of the best things I could do for myself and my family. I went to her feeling stuck and unable to show up as the parent I truly wanted to be, and she helped me uncover exactly what was hindering that progress.The most transformative part of our work was understanding how my "inner child" was influencing my daily reactions. Anna provided such a safe, supportive space to explore that relationship, giving me the tools to approach it with compassion rather than frustration. I feel much more grounded and present. I can't recommend her enough for anyone looking to heal and grow. Thank you Anna!!

Anna has a unique view about goal setting that was very enlightening. She was well organized and prepared for her presentation at our InspireHER Women’s Conference. Anna inspired many!

Working with Anna has been a deeply transformative experience. She has a remarkable ability to create a safe, supportive space where I felt comfortable exploring the different parts that make up who I am. Her gentle guidance and insightful questions helped me understand myself on a much deeper level, bringing clarity to areas I hadn’t fully acknowledged before. Anna’s warmth, empathy, and professionalism made every session both grounding and empowering. I’m so grateful for the growth and self-awareness I’ve gained through her coaching.

If you are failing to connect the dots in your life and require the assistance to reconnect the look no further than anna.She is hands down one of the most spiritual and relatable persons i have had the joy in working with, if you look past the opportunities she offers then you will never truly rehabilitate yourself.Anna is my first and more or less only reccomendation I would make if your seeking transformation in your life!

This is my second 5 stars review for Anna - and she definitely deserves more than a million stars.Been with her since April 2025, looking back now, every session is different and all very difficult.I have so much to say and I don’t even know where to start!If you are scrolling through Anna’s website or seeking for validation on how Anna can help you - without a doubt please have Anna to work with you. No words could describe how amazing Anna is in guiding you. There are no words to express how wonderful she is.Thank you again Anna - from the internal Fiona 🙂 See you next sesh!

Working with Anna has been profoundly healing. As a life coach, she has helped me build my own inner support system by reconnecting with my younger self and learning how to meet myself with love, compassion, and understanding.Through this work, I’ve developed the tools to support myself during challenging moments rather than feeling overwhelmed or alone. I’m incredibly grateful for this journey and highly recommend her.

From the moment I first met Anna, I knew I was in the presence of someone truly extraordinary. Joining her M.O.V.E program has been nothing short of transformative. From the very first session, her kindness, wisdom, and genuine care shone through.Anna has an incredible ability to make you feel completely seen, heard, and supported, even during the most challenging times. Working with her has helped me find clarity, confidence, and a sense of peace I didn't think was possible.Anna is more than a coach, she is a guiding light, a source of inspiration, and someone who genuinely changes lives. I am so grateful to have worked with her and highly recommend her to anyone seeking guidance and growth.

I’ve always been someone prone to anxiety, constantly anticipating what’s next. But working with Anna has taught me the incredible value of being fair and grounded—especially to myself. Anna guides you to access a calm, confident place within, helping you step fully into your own power. It’s an empowering journey that has genuinely changed my life.I’m deeply grateful to Anna for showing me how to show up authentically—as myself—and how that authenticity is not only okay but the key to leading myself toward success and true happiness. The treasure I was seeking was never outside—it was always inside me.

I highly recommend Anna Bayliss as a life coach for anyone who is seeking to meet their full potential, to find new direction and an empowered way of being. In her sessions Anna gently taps into the ‘feeling’ behind entrenched belief patterns, by guiding her mentee to reflect upon personal life experiences and relationships, and to better understand how these continue to significantly impact the present. I feel genuinely listened to - which makes me realise how rare an experience that is – and as a result, how convoluted individual thinking patterns can become. My early conversations with Anna have brought me greater clarity, lightness, and a recalibrated personal vision.

Anna is absolutely incredible. She is kind, patient, and genuinely supportive. She has been helping me through a very difficult time in my life, and her guidance has made such a difference. I feel completely comfortable with her, like I’ve known her for years. I truly couldn’t speak more highly of Anna and will continue seeing her. I’m so grateful for her help XXDelzy

I had no idea how disconnected from myself I was until I started working with Anna. I was at a point of life where I felt stuck. Her gentle and insightful guidance helped me get out of my head in go inwards to process old feelings and emotions which were preventing me from moving forward. I feel lighter, clear headed and ready to move forward and onwards in my life!I highly recommend Anna to anyone feeling stuck or needing guidance for the next step in their life. She creates a warm and supportive space to help navigate your thoughts in.

Anna has been a fantastic life coach, not only for my work life - which was my initial goal - but also in my personal life and relationship.From the moment she responded to my website enquiry, Anna’s genuine care and kindness stood out.During my sessions I really felt that Anna was fully engaged and interested in helping me get the most of our time together. I have struggled to feel this connection with others that I had sought help from in the past.After my first session I felt like I was on a high for days just because of the weight that I felt had been lifted from my shoulders. I was able to openly share with Anna the hurdles that I was feeling at home and at work, and she showed me reasons that were leading to me feeling like that, and how we could work to overcome them.I highly recommend Anna to anyone who feels they’ve hit a mental roadblock or just need a reset.Anna’s support is thoughtful, reassuring, and practical, and she provides tools you can take with you long after the session. I’m genuinely grateful for the positive impact she’s had, and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to others.

Working with Anna has been revelatory. Through her deep wisdom, generous warmth, and intuitive guidance, she draws on many different modalities and her own unique experience to help you make meaningful shifts—not just in how you approach life, but in your actual life. Anna isn't just a coach—she's a guide and a healer whose kindness and insight help you access places in yourself you didn't know were there. She has an extraordinary ability to help you distill your core values and actually live them, while uncovering parts of yourself you didn't even know existed. Whether you come to her seeking productivity strategies or deeper transformation, Anna meets you where you are and shows you what you actually need. I'm so grateful to have had this experience working with her!

I have recently had the pleasure of undertaking the M.O.V.E program with Anna and cannot recommend it highly enough. Anna creates a space that is safe, educational, spiritual and life changing. 4 months of guided meditation, exploring parts and 1:1 coaching has made me a much better person both inside and out. Xx

I had been seeing Anna since mid April this year.Before my first session, I even doubt that “will this work?” or “I bet that this is going to be the same”, but I gave it a try anyway.In my first 5 minutes in my first session I was still “not too sure” - but the rest of the session had literally crushed my doubts. I knew that I had made the right decision and Anna is very professional in her area and work.Every session with her I gained more clarity, more insight about myself and everything else - and I could never achieve it if I were to do it by myself.Recently there was a period where I almost give up (yes, this journey is a difficult one!), but she never forced through and validate my feelings. She continued to help and guide me in unfolding all events. In our last session couple days ago, I could finally break through this barrier and I finally feel like I am now at “another stage”.I highly recommend Anna if you need help and I believe that it will never be a wrong decision to have her in guiding you.Looking forward to see Anna in our next sesh!

If you had asked me a year ago if I had trauma and emotional scars I would have said “yes, but I’m fine now”. I had no idea how much pain and sadness I was carrying with me until I met Anna Baylis.Anna is calm and gentle in the way she speaks. With every session I felt safe as Anna guided me on my journey with support and kindness. As Anna lead me through this journey I always felt I was in an emotional safe space with no fear of judgment or shame. I have only been seeing Anna for 6 months but she has helped me completely changed my outlook on life, love and positivity for my future.Thank you Anna.I can now look forward with strength and confidence in myself and I know you will always be there if I take a step backwards and need to talk.I wish you an abundance of personal and professional success.God bless you.

We had the privilege of having Anna run a support group session at Think Pink and the experience was incredible. Anna has a truly special ability to hold space, she creates an environment where people feel safe, seen, and genuinely supported. She connected with the women so naturally and guided them through meaningful reflection with calm, grounded energy.Her presence allowed the group to open up in such an authentic way. The conversation flowed effortlessly, and the feedback from the session has been overwhelmingly positive. Many of the women commented on how much they took away from the experience and how deeply they valued Anna’s insight and gentle approach.We can’t thank her enough for the impact she had in such a short time, and we’d welcome her back in a heartbeat. Highly recommend Anna to anyone looking for guidance, connection, and an uplifting space for personal growth.Thanks again Anna!

My M.O.V.E journey with Anna was incredibly rewarding on multiple levels. Before starting the program, I felt stuck in various aspects of my life and lacked clarity on how to process my emotions. Through this experience, I gained a deeper understanding of emotional management, which has significantly improved my relationships with family and friends. Physically, I’ve become more active and have adopted healthier eating habits. I highly recommend it.

I have just finished the M.O.V.E. Programme with Anna and it has been amazing.From the very first call with Anna I have felt connected and heard.The programme has taught me so much about myself, how I process emotions, boundaries and how to uphold them. I loved the nutrition module and have made changes to my daily routine that have stayed beyond the programme.Her informative and gentle approach to each module makes it easy to understand and simple techniques and actions to implement.I have loved being apart of the MOVE community and really enjoyed the weekly calls (walks in nature), a chance to learn but also connect with other fabulous women.The course has been so varied and covered many different aspects of emotional, mental and physical health. It has inspired me to learn more.Having been stuck in a negative cycle for nearly a decade Anna has finally helped me see myself beyond that which was holding me back. I feel like I can finally move forward.I cannot rate this course and her guidance highly enough. Do it! You’ll feel supported, held, heard and inspired.Thank you Anna for such a freeing experience. I am excited to see how the next chapter unfolds. I’m manifesting all the way!

For anyone seeking profound self-discovery and positive change, I wholeheartedly recommend Anna.Thanks again.All the best.Eitan.

I recently completed a life coaching program with Anna, and I can’t express how transformative the experience was. The service is exceptionally well-structured, featuring relatable advice and practical tasks that genuinely facilitate personal growth.Anna is incredibly friendly, understanding, and patient. Her listening skills make every session feel safe and supportive. The course is filled with life-changing insights and actionable steps that guide you toward positive change.I particularly appreciated the helpful resources provided, especially the workbooks. They are exceptionally well-written and offer easy-to-follow practical steps with measurable goals. The Facebook group was a fantastic addition, allowing participants to connect, share experiences, and support each other through the highs and lows of the journey.The weekly sessions were a game changer, packed with vital information. The option to revisit recorded sessions ensured that I could reflect on what I learned. Anna’s love and care for her clients shine through in every interaction.The one-on-one sessions were invaluable, allowing me to focus on my personal goals and address more delicate matters with compassion and understanding.Thank you, Anna! I am truly grateful for your support and guidance. You made me feel comfortable throughout the course, and your unwavering patience will stay with me forever. I’m happy to say that you were a mentor and now a friend.I wish you all the best in your mission to help others become the best version of themselves.

Anna is a powerhouse of knowledge and life experience, her passion and commitment to the M.O.V.E program is obvious in every single session and more. It was such an enjoyable experience and what I’ve taken away from the program will stick with me well into the future. I’m so grateful for the experience and all the little changes I’ve made are benefiting not just myself but my family too. Thank you Anna, your support is so appreciated. To anyone feeling lost or stuck mentally, physically and emotionally, that first phone call with Anna is a must, she’ll guide you in the right direction. ❤️

From the moment I spoke to Anna I felt completely comfortable and at ease. The tools she has taught me throughout each session have helped me phenomenally in overcoming the emotional trauma I had within for many many years. I finally feel free of that emotional baggage that I have dragged alongside me for so long now. She’s given me the techniques to use to overcome not only the now traumas but for any future challenges that come my way. She helped me in making peace with my past to allow me to see the strength I have and be truely happy within. I have been in the mental health system for years from therapists, counselling & psychologists. Not even the meds they so quickly handed out compares to the progress I made in the sessions iv had with Anna. A short time with Anna I have learnt 300% more than any of the help i tried to reach out to. Anna teaches you the tools and guides you through digging deep to be able to get to that core issue.Instead of just talking over and over about the same problem, she is able to help you make peace with the past.If you are someone with any kind of emotional trauma, I 100% HIGHLY recommend Anna, her talents In helping you heal and her teachings in the tools to take charge of your own mind have saved me and set me free!!! I cannot thankyou enough Anna! I will have these tools with me for life to always return to when in times of need!!Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou 🙏🙏

Anna has been incredible to work with.I’ve had plenty of ups and downs throughout my journey with Anna. She’s has taught me skills to deal with these situations and understand emotions.

I’ll look forward to continuing my journey and developing other skills.Thank you so much

MOVE is truly a life-changing experience. It did not solve all of my problems in four months; I am not a super model nor have I reached a higher astral plane, but what I have gained is worth so much more. I now believe, with Anna’s help, I have built a toolkit to survive and thrive on the next part of my journey. Most of all, instead of becoming who I thought I wanted to be, I have been given the gifts of self appreciation and presence. I can now enjoy every second with my young son, instead of over analysing everything. I no longer feel like I am living in the future, in fear of my past and I am very sensitive to times when my behaviour does not align to my goals and values.

Anna is one of the most clever and compassionate people I have met.I'm a 64 yr old nurse.For the past 25 yrs I have been trying to find a way to address my life issues and move forward in a meaningful way."VALUES" BLAH! BLAH! BLAH!...Always struggled with this. Now I know what mine are. I always had "kind of an idea" but now I really know and can illiterate them clearly.Anna delivers her coaching in various ways.The major one is walking in nature whist listening to and sharing infoThe latest cog health stuff I have accessed says moving/exercising whilst listening to educational materialis very powerful.Anna offers 1:1 counselling. I have done alot of this over my life but the sessions I had with Anna just made me feel so much better about me.Connecting with the gorgeous women of my M.O.V.E. experience was lovely.I can only say that if you need to MOVE on in your life...Anna will help you do It!!!Anna

Anna helped me fall back in love with life again, she inspired, motivated and pushed me out of my comfort zone when I felt like I was in a stagnant part of my life. She helped me discover what the true meanings of emotions are and why they are there as well as grounding myself in times of stress. Through her I made connections with other women that I know will last a life time and it is so comforting to know that not only was she an amazing life coach, but an amazing friend whose connection I will treasure forever.

One of the best things I did in 2023 was connecting with Anna and I am really grateful for the support Anna has given to enable me to really know and understand myself. Anna has really shown me how to see myself clearly and compassionately, understand my drivers (good and bad) and to make conscious choices. I highly recommend Anna's coaching services!

Earlier this year I completed Anna’s MOVE program and my life is in a completely different place. I went from being debilitated by Long COVID symptoms and completely disheartened about how I can accomplish everything I want out of life while being so restricted in my abilities. Not to mention how lost I felt about my career. Anna worked with me on long suppressed feelings from my childhood and even in that fist 1:1 I felt a shift in how I saw my future. Anna helped me separate myself from the symptoms I was experiencing so I can eventually let them go and not internalise them making the chronic condition permanent. The ladies in the MOVE program were also a great source of support for life’s ups and downs. We all cheered each other on and shared tips on how to achieve our common goals. Finally to topics discussed in MOVE were a great summary of how to lead a healthy life - both physically and mentally. While I have come across most of those topics before in my own journey to healing, going over them in a structured and intensive way was a great way to ‘reset’ my life course. By the end of the program I had achieved some huge life milestones including getting engaged to the man of my dreams and us buying our first family home together. I advocated myself with my doctors until they found a plan forward to manage my symptoms. Which allowed me to have more energy and accomplish career - related goal. A huge thanks to Anna for helping me through a difficult time. I’ll always be grateful.

Before my time with Anna, I was lost and unable to move forward and progress in many areas of my life, I also struggled to understand and process my emotions in a healthily way. With Anna’s caring and gentle guidance, I gained the confidence to make choices and seek opportunities that aligned with the life I wanted and the person I wanted to be.Thanks to Anna, I feel like I’m now creating a happier and more fulfilling life for myself.

I highly recommend Anna to anyone feeling lost, stuck or unsure about where they are in life.

Thankyou Anna! The last 4 months have been awesome! I have grown into a better version of myself thanks to your guidance and the support and openness of the other men in our MOVEM group! I particularly enjoyed the relationship workshop, my partner and I took away so many positives from that. Our connection is deeper and stronger than ever.Thanks again to you Anna, and my fellow MOVEM men, I feel like I have gained 6 new brothers and a wonderful sister/friend/mentor/coach for life.

There are so many positive things I could say about Anna. She shows genuine care and interest and is one of the of the most authentic people I've ever met. Anna makes you feel comfortable to express yourself and your feelings which, as a male, can be difficult and something I had difficulty doing in the past with therapists and other health professionals.I began individual coaching sessions with Anna in February 2023 as I was wanting more out of myself, my relationships and life in general. Despite me taking some time to open up and be vulnerable, Anna showed extreme patience during our sessions and always encouraged me that I was on the right path.I came to Anna having been on anti-depressants for nearly 10 years and she suggested that they may have been a blocker for my emotions and she was right. I successfully weaned off them over a period of a few months and was able to start to feel my emotions again and work through some deep seeded beliefs and issues.I was also fortunate to be a part of a men's only group which Anna ran over a period of 4 months. This program consisted of regular in person and zoom sessions with 6 other men where we were coached on feelings, relationships, values, mediation, fitness and nutrition and other important areas in our life.As a result of attending both individual coaching sessions and the men's coaching program I am more in touch with my feelings, have a better relationship with my wife, am more comfortable in my own skin, more confident, aware of what I value most in life, have formed healthier habits and overall am happier with life.Anna is a truly remarkable coach and always shows up for you and validates your feelings.I feel very privileged to have found Anna and will definitely utilise her in the future for further coaching.Thanks for an amazing experience.

Anna has a way of working with people that makes you feel instantly comfortable, seen and understood. Her approach to coaching is empathetic and non-judgmental, while (gently) calling you out on the patterns and behaviour that are holding you back from your fullest potential.I participated in Anna’s last round of M.O.V.E, and saw positive changes in my life from the very first week. Anna helped me step into my true self, in a way years of therapy never has. She motivated me to put words into action, and is now a welcome voice in the back of my mind on a daily basis, pushing my to make choices based off my values, and to continue to learn more about myself.Anna has been a catalyst for so much growth in myself, and I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to work with her!

Anna has a beautiful, down-to-Earth AND inspiring approach to her coaching. I have been working with Anna for the last couple of months and have experienced monumental shifts in my life. I was experiencing a very difficult time in my life when i started the M.O.V.E. program with Anna and now I feel lighter, calmer, more connected to my emotions and clearer in my decision-making. My relationships are more easeful and I am finding joy in places I never expected!I have so much gratitude for Anna ✨️❤️

Strange start to my happiest experience. I observed Anna’s car (with her business details on it) and it was like a weird light bulb got turned on in my head. I felt compelled to go to her even though id never heard of a life coach before.I called her and made an appointment and committed myself to two sessions. Was I sceptical, confused about my compulsion and dubious about the effectiveness of this course of action? - definitely.When I met Anna I found her be very intelligent, caring, inspiring with an uncanny ability to delve into my sub conscious. We conversed like we had known each other prior. She has a very easy going nature and is so easy to talk to.Whilst talking to me she extracted information from my past (that I had blacked out and wasn’t aware of) that was grossly affecting my current day behaviour/thinking/persona and everything in between.I’ve had multiple sessions with Anna now and I am clearly a far better person who is no longer affected by a lot of major crippling events in my past.I am a completely different person now (a change for the better I should add), I now know what affected me, how it affected me and how to interpret any other behaviour of mine (what’s the behaviour, how I feel, causation, analysis and how to move forward).To say Anna is my saviour is not an understatement. I recommend her services to everyone. She brought me from a troubled, mentally confused/affected individual who was not operating on all cylinders to a happy, pleasant man who is now a much better person and I love love love life in general. This result is good for me and those I interact with.So I say to you, if you need a life coach (remember, I didn’t know I needed one) you must/should give Anna a call and make an appointment or you’ll be doing your self a disservice.Alan Gosland.

Anna is one unique life coach. I have had an incredible experience with Anna. She creates her sessions to suit your needs. Everything Anna guided me with, is unique. I have had many therapists, but none come close to how Anna conducts her sessions. She is very encouraging. There are no words to describe how amazing Anna truely is!

I am very pleased tp provide an endorsement for Anna. She is a great coach and helped me to understand so much about myself.Her style and manner are ideal for this role: understanding, non-judgemental and interested in teaching in a non-intrusive manner.Anna's work with me developed the connection between body, mind and the sub-conscious leading to powerful changes in the way I view myself and the manner in which I engage with the world.First rate.Very rewarding to meet and work with her.

I do not hesitate to recommend Anna and her services. Patient, professional and very knowledgeable, I loved working with Anna and have consequently felt empowered to make significant changes that have improved my life and perspectives. Give her a try! You won’t regret it.

I’ve been working with Anna for the past 3 months and I’m really enjoying the experience. I wasn’t sure what to expect with life coaching but Anna put me at ease instantly. I’ve tried a number of different weight loss programs in the past but I’ve not been able to stick with them - self sabotage always sends me back to the start. Anna is helping understand why I do this and open up my thoughts to change 20years of destructive behaviour. It’s hard work at times but incredibly rewarding. Over the past few months the coaching (surprisingly) has improved my work and personal relationships. I’m still a work in progress but i know I’ll reach my goals with Anna’s support.

6 weeks with Anna vs 16 years with councellors/psychs, Anna wins hands down🏆. Professional, to the point and results driven based upon your own custom goals. Everything I needed. Thanks coach!!! 🙏👍

Anna’s coaching is life changing, when I came to her I felt depressed and stuck and like there was nothing to look forward to, and she gave me a safe space to express my feelings, and guide me along a path to feeling like I matter, learning about emotions and self-soothing and it gave me the spark I needed to really engage with my life again. If you are thinking of working with her, just do it – you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

To say that Anna gave me my life back would be an understatement, she has given me a brand new one and helped me become someone I never thought I could be. There are no words to accurately depict how grateful I am that I found Anna.

I would highly recommend Anna Baylis as a life coach. Her experience as an Olympic athlete, successful business owner, author and mother enables her to draw her expertise and skills from a vast array of life experiences. Her approach is kind gentle inclusive and passionate to create a difference in the lives of her many clients.

I met Anna in 2020. We were both TCI students at that time. Anna offered to be my coach. I accepted. I was in distress over different troubles in my life. Anna used her wisdom, intuition, and life skills to coach me. She kept me on track and would gently draw me back to the subject at hand if I took off on what I call a rabbit trail during a coaching session. Anna has a vibrancy, a joy in life, and insight that helped get me through some very rough times. She helped me with goal setting, and patiently led me to to get me throughsome murky waters in my life. She helped me to find an inner peace, and to start believing in my self.Anna is gifted as a life coach and as a health coach. If you choose Anna as a coach you will not regret it.Respectfully,Dana KellyCalifornia, U.S.A.

Anna is amazing. She has really helped me find myself and deal with my life issues.

Michelle Lewin

I first started seeing Anna for personal training as I wanted to improve my strength and fitness. From there I had some life coaching sessions which were incredible as Anna helped me get through some anger issues I had been carrying. I also joined her M.O.V.E program which not only connected me with some wonderfully understanding ladies but it also helped me get in touch with my emotions and to be able to express them. There is so much more to what Anna does, that it is impossible to describe how caring, non judgmental and intuitive she is in just a paragraph or two.

RJ Ly

02:38 24 Feb 22

Anna is a kind and nuturing coach. Working with her has been transformative for me and I have really loved being a part of the M.O.V.E. community. Anna's caring, generous and fun spirit make it so easy and comfortable to work with her.

I would like to publicly thank Anna for taking me on as a client and to strongly recommend Anna to anyone who may be considering her services.As a person with a highly sedentary lifestyle, I had procured (over many years) various injuries caused by a lack of physical fitness and general poor condition. After some initial medical intervention, which got me able to move again, Anna has become central to my longer-term recovery and rebuilding strategy. Our sessions have shown continuous improvement over relatively short periods of time - this has been extremely important in maintaining my motivation.To anyone considering personal training, I highly commend Anna to you

I had one to one mountain biking coaching with Anna as I wanted to improve my skills. Anna gave clear, concise advice and was really encouraging. I’ve been riding difficult tracks since then and can feel the improvement already. Thanks Anna!

Sally Castle

The best thing I ever did was go to Anna not only has helped me with my fitness but she has become important to me as someone who listens without judgement and genuinely cares for her customers. Recently went on a retreat with Anna and it has helped me make some very important changes to myself. Taking care of me I can take care of my family. And you taught me that Anna Bayliss.. I highly recommend Anna if you are looking to change your life for the better.

Despite having had help from a psychologist and trauma counsellor and completing a counselling degree, I hadn't realised how much emotional pain I was still holding onto 40+ years later. Working with Anna allowed me to go back, without needing to talk about the actual events, and to determine whether I wanted to get rid of or change the events. Changing them was so freeing as was finding ways to forgive myself and others. I feel as if I have put down all my emotional baggage, ready to run freely through the fields of life.She has an amazing presence that makes you feel safe, understood and empowered to make the changes to move on freely.

Anna is a positive, encouraging influence, not just during training, it also filters through to my life in general. I love that training is semi outside and not in a commercial gym, this makes the environment feel warm and welcoming.

I have been seeing Anna at Fitgurl for a few years now and I’m thankful that I found someone who will be there to push me through the good, bad and the ugly times. Anna is my sound board, an amazing strong person when you need that push and I also classify her as a great friend. Anna makes you feel comfortable and always makes sure your ok.My daughter who has had an injury is now seeing Anna who is working with her physio to help her be injury free.I would highly recommend Anna to get you moving again in the right direction.

Justine Martin

I’m very thankful for finding Fitgurl and working out with her 3 times a week.. Anna’s attention to detail is amazing. The friendly group of clients and environment is all that makes it so enjoyable.. Looking forward to the upcoming retreat for a mind and rebalance.

Anna's group fitness classes are just what I need. She always keeps up to date with our fitness and health progress. The female only atmosphere also makes it less uncomfortable and you have a sense of sisterhood. Highly recommend.

Maryam Ali

11:02 01 Aug 18

I love Anna's all-women group class. We have so much fun that it feels much "easier" to get through a workout than it would slogging it out in the gym (but I'm sure we actually work harder). Anna uses interval training, and her creative ideas for variations of different exercises seem endless, so it's impossible to be bored. Anna herself is really down-to-earth, kind, and caring - she motivates without being a drill sergeant, and keeps a close eye on technique to make sure you're doing the exercises correctly and safely. Her gym is outdoors, which I was initially skeptical about but it's been great to get out in the fresh air, even over winter - it makes you realise that our weather is not always that bad! Kids are welcome to hang around if need be, so that makes it really easy for homeschooling mums, school holidays, or expected/unexpected days off school.

I have been training with Anna just a little under a year now in the 2-1 training situation. Anna really caters for both our needs individually which is great. Anna has a vast knowledge which really shows when she is training you. Would highly recommend!

My fitness has increased dramatically since training with Anna. We always have a lot of fun while achieving our goals. I highly recommend Fitgurl!

Dillon Bonham

Anna is amazing! Seriously, what trainer actually joins in and works out with you. She makes working out enjoyable. She also educates me on correct techniques, what to eat pre/post workout. In the year that I trained with Anna, she was always positive, she was always flexible and she helped me reach my fitness goals.

Milli Vun

01:31 18 Aug 17

Anna is a high achieving, responsible and driven individual who strives to reach goals. In recent years she has taken a great interest in nutrition, permaculture and other health issues which complements her training expertise, as this area benefits her clients to succeed in better quality fitness levels and personal growth. She has helped me set up my own probiotics, Kombucha and Kefir, which has benefited my gut health and subsequent immunity. Anna is an exceptional athlete, a past Olympian mountain bike rider, World Ironman competitor, and accomplished tennis player, so she has all the experience to offer her clients optimum coaching, nutrition advice, fitness training and competition at many sporting levels.

Anna Clarkson

Anna offers small groups sessions which is helping us be dedicated to being bridal party ready! Anna knows how to make you sweat, even when it's minus 3 outside. Trust me.
