About Kim

With a wide range of qualifications—including advanced resistance training, pre- and postnatal fitness, exercise referral, and lower back pain specialism, Kim supports people with diverse needs and experiences. She works with clients managing conditions such as arthritis, osteoporosis, hypertension, joint replacements, and persistent pain, offering thoughtful, adaptable coaching that meets you where you are.

Kim’s work goes beyond the gym. Through her collaboration with the NHS, she has delivered inclusive, weight-neutral fitness support while also educating healthcare professionals on weight stigma and its impact, advocating for more compassionate, evidence-based care.

Her approach to movement is varied and joyful. Alongside strength training, Kim is a yoga instructor specialising in accessible yoga for bigger bodies and diverse communities, and is also qualified in Burlesque Cardio and Twerk After Work, because fitness should feel empowering, not punishing.

As a self-described “neurospicy” mum to a teenager, Kim understands that life is busy, unpredictable, and far from perfect. That’s exactly why she’s built Body Image Fitness the way she has: a space where you can show up as you are, feel safe and supported, and build confidence in a way that fits your real life.

We’d love to support you in building strength and confidence in a way that feels positive, supportive, and completely tailored to you.

weight neutral personal training

During personal training sessions, you’ll have a calm, private, and supportive environment, ideal if typical gym settings feel intimidating or overwhelming.

Every session is grounded in a weight-neutral approach, meaning the focus is on improving your body image, strength, cardiovascular fitness, and mental wellbeing, without emphasising intentional weight loss.

Personal Training sessions are held in Heaton, Newcastle upon Tyne

My confidence has grown
Thank you for a great year at BIF, without even noticing my confidence has grown so much! I would never have started my own business this time last year and I put it down to my change in mindset which you totally kickstarted. I am so grateful for the non judgemental support and love my weekly workout with you - who knew I could enjoy exercise?! 😂 Honestly it’s so fab to have a cheerleader in an industry that I didn’t used to fit into. I’m very grateful x x x

Game Changer
I really enjoy my personal training sessions with Kim! I was never that coordinated or liked PE in school, so I’ve always ruled exercise out as being “not for me”. Working with Kim has enabled me to redefine what exercise means for me, and it’s allowed me to feel capable, stronger and have more energy. Kim is such a badass, she gives me the confidence to challenge myself in a caring and non-judgemental environment - I’d recommend Body Image Fitness classes and/or personal training to everyone, it’s a proper game changer 🥰

Whole-heartedly enjoy fitness
It is coming up on a year since I started personal training with Kim and Body Image Fitness, and here are some of the outcomes I’m experiencing: ⭐️ I can lift heavier things than I could before ⭐️ I feel more energetic than I did before ⭐️ My knees complain a lot less about going up and down stairs ⭐️ I can’t remember the last time my back hurt ⭐️ I have loads of fun exercising in a range of different ways ⭐️ My self-punishing messages about exercise and food are quieter than they’ve ever been ⭐️ I have made new friends ⭐️ I have, for the first time, experienced really, wholeheartedly enjoying exercising but without the added pressure of “you must always build to more”. A lifetime of punishing messages is being healed. ⭐️ I have enthusiastically gone out on a cold November evening to do PT when I could have been home with the cat On that note, I’m off for a hot bath! Come and do PT with Kim. It’s not like anything else out there.
