MEET CHRISTINE
Hi, I'm Christine, a fitness expert, menopause coach, yoga and pilates teacher, and Mum of two daughters. I love to share my passion for fitness and sport with others and support women especially on their health journey. Originally from England, I have been living and teaching on the Zurich silver coast for the last 15 years.
I give Personal Training alongside developing the first MenoFit™ health and fitness coaching course for menopausal women in Switzerland. I also teach Pilates, Reformer and Yoga.
As a teenager, I discovered the gym and felt the empowering strength that bodybuilding gave me. Even while pursuing my degree at university, I cherished the discipline and routine that exercise brought. After working for 8 years in the fashion industry, a serious neck problem began to affect my daily commute to London. So I changed my lifestyle, re trained, and pursued a career in health and fitness.
Since then, I’ve taught group fitness classes, worked with students in schools, trained athletes in gyms, supported special populations through rehabilitation, coached endurance runners on mountain trails, and provided one-to-one personal training. Now, in my third decade of personal fitness training, I draw on this wealth of experience to support women in midlife.

Throughout my career I have taught hundreds of women in thousands of classes!
I am committed to delivering the most up-to-date exercise plans and programmes while educating women through their workouts. Women are not the same as men, and their exercise needs differ significantly—changing further as they move through different stages of life.
My aim is to build strong, resilient women, with a particular focus on the menopause transition. I support and educate women through these stages, both individually and in cohorts in the workplace, helping them feel confident and resilient, not only physically but also mentally. Age is a privilege—one that deserves to be met with strength and self-belief.
