Thank you for visiting my website. I hope you find the information inside exciting and inspirational. My name is Sandi, an online personal fitness coach based in Melbourne, specializing in online fitness coaching dedicated to helping you achieve your health and fitness goals through tailored programs that fit your lifestyle.
My mission is to help people over fifty change their relationship with food and movement to lose excess weight and feel energized, healthy and empowered. We can slow down and possibly reverse the aging process with some knowledge and effort and therefore look forward to an active and purposeful life.
Since I can remember, I have always enjoyed physical activity, including gym classes, tennis, golf, swimming, walking, and gardening.
Becoming a mother in my mid-twenties became a significant part of my life, supporting my (then) husband in our construction business and helping to renovate two properties. Taking care of our four children, working part-time, extended family commitments and friends left little time for my wellness needs.
In 2011 when the youngest was in year 11 at school, I finally found time and motivation to focus on my fitness and health, particularly my weight. Over time, I gradually gained extra weight, leaving me feeling sluggish, out of shape, and low on energy. As someone who loves design and fashion, I longed to feel confident and comfortable in my clothes. That’s when I turned to online fitness coaching to help me regain my vitality and achieve the look I desired.
I knew the weight loss wouldn’t be easy, but I made up my mind with a steely determination to succeed.
I joined a recently opened local boutique gym where I revelled in my trainer’s friendly support and encouragement and new friendships with people wanting to improve their fitness and health.

We very much look forward to our weekly sessions and her bubbly personality.”
“At 56 I never thought I would be stronger and more agile than I have been in 20 years after being with Sandi at Baystyle Bodies for the last year and making an investment in my health. I think it’s been transformational for my general health and mental well-being and gives me greater drive and purpose and I can only recommend the tailored program she has put together for me. Thank you”
"I have been going to Baystyle Bodies for over 3 years now. I absolutely love it's friendly boutique and community feel. The classes are always kept varied and interesting. Sandi is a personable, down-to-earth instructor who wont't push you past your limits, yet will ensure you receive every benefit yoga has to offer in mind and body."
“Sandi is an excellent instructor, whose experience and knowledge translate into her relaxed teaching style. The classes are enjoyable, Sandi talks through each movement and ensures you are breathing correctly. As the classes are small, Sandi gives individual attention, even the smallest adjustment she suggests makes a difference to ensure I gain maximum benefit from each exercise. As someone who’s new to Pilates, I am getting stronger and more flexible. Everyone would benefit from this class, whatever age, fitness level, male or female.”
