“I use to train with Katie long before she was a PT. Katie has always had a passion for health and fitness. I recently moved back to Newcastle after having my first bub. I didn’t need to look into other gyms, I knew exactly where I would be training. Katie has 2 kids of her own and fully understands the journey a woman’s body goes through during pregnancy and beyond. Katie also understands the challenges of juggling parenthood and exercise. I have really enjoyed training with Katie again. She challenges you in a safe and respectful manner and motivates you to achieve your goals. Highly recommend Atomic Fitness.”

“Katie is absolutely amazing. Super friendly, highly professional. Expert knowledge of how to individualise programs to cater for a variety of needs, wants and injuries. Katie is patient and motivating. She always touches base with every participant at least once or twice or more every lesson. She provides concurrent and accurate skill feedback and encourages you to keep going when you are ready to stop.
