About Kathy

My personal interests have always revolved around personal health, movement and human biology. In my own search for personal health and wellness, I had the opportunity to learn new  skills and therapies that have made a huge difference in my life. Now I get to live and work that which I am passionate about; anatomy, physiology and biochemistry, lifestyle health, and personal development.

 

My journey of heath awareness began in my first year of uni - a unit called 'Pollutants and Toxicology' by Dr Peter Dingle.  I don't know why it motivated me so strongly, as I was healthy and strong - but I really wanted to live my life 'healthfully'.   I also did a unit under Dr Peter Newman (Populations Resources and the Environment) which prompted a lifelong interest in sustainable living.  While I no longer work in the sciences - these studies really honed my interests and research skills - which hold me in great stead now :).

 

I have had the opportunity to learn from many fantastic teachers - Tom Myers, Paul Chek , Mary Bond, Robert Schleip, Kevin Frank, Caryn McHose, David Vendetti, Lou Benson, Nicky Knoff, James Brian, Santina Giardina-Chard - OMG soooo many fantastic teachers I would not expect anyone to know - and yet all at the top of their respective fields.  But with all my travels to learn this stuff - I have always loved returning to Perth with its slower pace, beautiful clean skies, awesome climate and genuine people.

 

I have a strong sports history - As a child/teenager I was addicted to athletics and horses. In adulthood it was netball, indoor and beach volleyball, masters athletics, running, yoga, martial arts and boxing. Oh - and I was a classic gym junky for many years :). But now days I am a little less gung-ho 😁

 

My other main interest is personal development. It goes hand in hand with this work because unhappiness reflects in our body, lifestyle, work and relationships. We are complicated creatures and this endeavour is a life long process.
