About Abbie

Hey! I’m Abbie, the newest addition to the Astar family and I’m here to help every single one of you find your fierce again. Like many, I was teased about my weight in high school. I’ve been through tough times and experienced some pretty serious trauma in my life, but the one thing that was a constant as I was becoming an adult… Was how amazing I felt when I was in the gym. I qualified as a PT during Lockdown 2020, after 10 years training experience. I work really well with newbies and gym anxiety, and as a girl with IBS and a million food intolerances, I believe I can teach even the fussiest eaters how to understand, appreciate and enjoy their food again. If you’re a person who likes to know WHY they are doing something, and HOW to do it properly, to help build long term, healthy habits for life… Then I am the gal for you.

Want to see what I’m about? Join me at DanceFIT on Tuesday evenings @ 7pm to feel your fire light within again!

Male or female, I’ve got you covered.

• L2 Fitness Instructor
• L3 Personal Trainer

About ALice

Hi I’m Alice, A-stars apprentice and I am currently studying towards a level 3 personal training qualification.

From a young age I’ve always been an active person since doing dance and involving myself with sports at school.

After recently attending college for 2 years to complete three A levels in photography, history and English, I developed a passion for the gym and exercising. I found myself going to the gym and keeping active whenever I had a free period at college and realised how much I loved it!

Since doing the subjects I did at A level, I always had a vision of being a writer or doing some sort of digital marketing job. However, I realised I wanted a job where I could stay active and be on my feet and that’s when I realised my passion for fitness could be incorporated within my career.

I found myself staying consistent with the gym and wanted to eventually help other people do the same! “Sometimes you don’t always need a plan of where to go, it’s the destination that counts”
