Angela moved to the Blue Mountains 19 years ago, leaving behind her corporate career for a healthier and more balanced life. The move allowed her to refocus and indulge her passion of fitness and movement, helping others incorporate it into to their lives. Consequently, Angela has helped a large number of people throughout the greater Blue Mountains over this time, either through her fun classes or through bespoke one-on-one programs that address their specific needs. Highly critical of the ‘one size fits all’ approach that the fitness industry tends to promote, one of Angela’s greatest passions is in empowering women at all life stages and tailoring movement to meet people where they are at.

Sarah has always loved to move and even as a young adult she grew to appreciate and study both artistic and scientific ways of looking at the body. She has worked as a performer and professional musician, and commenced her Pilates instructor journey back in 2003 at UTS. Since then she has continued to expand her qualifications and learning into all aspects of Pilates, allowing her to work with people of all ages and abilities.

As one of Australia’s first barre instructors, Sarah also introduced this fun program to the mountains and it is one of her most popular classes at Fit and Fabulous. She is also a fitness trainer and pre and post natal instructor.

Over the last two decades Sarah has worked at several renowned Sydney Pilates studios, and continues to instruct in Sydney, whilst also running her own Pilates business.

Sarah built a solar passive designed mud brick home in the upper Blue Mountains and lives there with her husband, two children, two budgies, a three-legged rescue cat, guinea pigs and a dwarf rabbit.

Tania has always had a passion for movement and fitness. After working in the outdoor education industry for a few years, she entered the fitness industry as a group fitness instructor in 2005.

Her curiosity about why people had so many different postural issues led her to an interest in the Pilates Method. The discovery of Pilates changed her approach to fitness because it involved a mind body connection and a deeper connection to the muscles that support our structure.

She has studied and taught Pilates internationally and the thing she enjoys most about teaching Pilates is the creativity that comes with catering for clients’ different needs and seeing people getting stronger and as a result, happier and healthier.

Tania and her young family (and her dog) settled in the Blue Mountains several years She enjoys spending her time being active outdoors and enjoys trail running, bushwalking, camping and rock climbing.

Vanessa a big believer in moulding your movement practice to fit your body and your needs, and thinks there is so much more to be learned and enjoyed when there is permission to play and explore.

In her classes, there is no expectation, nor particular way that anyone needs to move, breathe, feel or think in their practice. Instead, there is simply an invitation to explore movement and breath in a way that fosters introspection and the joy of reconnecting to self. Whether it's your first yoga class or you've been practising for years, her hope is that you'll leave your practice feeling nourished, refreshed and rested.

Vanessa has been sharing yoga in the Blue Mountains for the past 5 years since moving here with her husband, their dog and their chickens to be surrounded by nature. She enjoys spending time at the dog park, going for hikes and caring for her many, many house plants.
