Today we returned to the studio with Christopher Marlowe's #EdwardII! With a mighty cast, this growing and slashing mood board, and the queerest Renaissance D.R.A.M.A ever.... I think it's going to be a bloody, gorgeous process!

If you listen closely… after sweep no. 4 there’s a quiet little “yessss…” 😅
That’s the moment I finally gave him a wobble after a string of failed attempts.
A small victory… but I’ll take it 💪🏻😂
Me carrying my small dictator through life. ☀️🐾
He runs the schedule, sets the route, distance, and expects full devotion.
Honestly, fair enough. 🤍

Seven years ago, I picked up the keys to our first house - a proud single parent moment.
For Finn and me, it’s held everything: the juggle, the graft, the doubt, the laughter, the quiet and the celebrations.
It’s our little slice of haven. A place that’s so much more than bricks and mortar. A place of stability and independence. A daily reminder of our resilience and ambition🏡

Sarah’s been training 1-2-1 with me for just over a year now.
She first came through my Boxing Bootcamp classes…
Then decided to give kickboxing a go 👊
After completing my 12-week beginner course and catching the bug, she stepped into 1-2-1 PT — and hasn’t looked back since.
Watching her go from complete beginner to absolute ninja over the last 12 months has been awesome.
Here’s what she had to say…
“A year ago, I didn’t recognise myself. Not just how I looked, but how I felt.
Weak, sluggish, unmotivated, unchallenged.
So I decided to try something that scared me — kickboxing.
I had one goal — to feel like a Power Ranger (minus the Lycra 😂)
At first it felt awkward… but there’s something humbling about being a bit shit and getting things wrong (a lot).
It made me feel young and alive.
I felt stronger. More flexible. More coordinated. More energised. More confident.
More resilient. More certain of who I am.
I stopped feeling small… and started feeling powerful.”
This is what it’s all about.
Not just looking better — but feeling stronger, more confident, and more like you again.
If you’ve been thinking about starting, but not sure where to begin…
Drop me a DM and let’s get you moving 👊
