Welcome to Healthhub

Fitness That Fits Your Life!

If you want to feel stronger, fitter, and more energised without the pressure of a traditional gym, you’re in the right place.

Healthhub was founded by Sally and Jacqui, two passionate health and fitness professionals dedicated to helping people feel stronger, healthier, and more confident in their everyday lives. Both are Level 4 qualified (degree equivalent) and bring years of experience, knowledge, and a genuine love for the industry to the Healthhub community.

Since launching in 2010, our goal has always been simple: to make fitness accessible, effective, and fun for everyone, no matter your age, experience, or starting point. From Pilates and Legs, Bums & Tums to Outdoor Bootcamps and Beginner and Older Adult classes, we wanted to provide high quality, enjoyable fitness classes for our local community.

When the world changed during COVID-19, we adapted quickly by launching our online studio, Healthhub VIP.  This allowed our members to stay active, connected, and supported from the comfort of their own homes. We streamed live classes daily and built an on demand library, helping our members keep moving and stay motivated during a challenging time. Many even said it was “the fittest they’ve ever been!”

Today, Healthhub offers the best of both worlds. We continue to run our popular face to face community classes while also providing flexible online workouts through Healthhub VIP.

I was never particularly athletic at school and was often the one skiving off PE or getting lost during cross country runs! That all changed after I left school and discovered aerobics. Why wasn’t this taught in schools? I’m probably showing my age now, but I was always at the front of the class in my leotard and never missed a session.

This soon led to circuit classes and eventually the gym. I started to love exercise,  not only how it made me look, but how it made me feel. My passion was group classes, and I tried everything: Boxercise (while travelling in Australia I even trained at Joe Bugner’s gym), Jazz Dance (I was terrible at it, but still loved it), Thai Bo, Kickboxing and Step, to name just a few.

It felt like a natural progression to start educating myself in something I had become so passionate about. I went back to college and gained my qualifications in Gym Instruction, Circuits and Exercise to Music. From there, there was no looking back. I began teaching and continued gaining further qualifications along the way, including Pilates (which I particularly love now), Personal Training, GP Referral, Aqua classes, and Training for Older Adults. More recently, I have also achieved several Level 4 specialised qualifications, which are listed below.

No day ever feels like work. I get great pleasure from delivering personalised classes and making a real difference in people’s lives, whether that’s improving their fitness, strength, independence, or posture. I love seeing the positive changes in those who attend my classes, and I receive wonderful feedback from those who join online.

Moving online changed my life. How amazing is it that I can deliver a class to you in your own home? There’s no travel, no gym politics, and you still achieve the same great results. I get so much satisfaction from seeing people’s progress, it truly feels like a Healthhub family.

I never stop learning, and I will never stop helping people achieve their goals. I’m also lucky enough to work alongside my business colleague and best friend, Jacqui. We have so many ideas and exciting directions for our company. We’re like yin and yang, and that balance is what makes it work, long may it continue!

Health and fitness have been part of my life since my teenage years and now, in my sixth decade, I’m loving it just as much! Mornings are my favourite time to move.  Whether I’m exercising indoors, training outdoors, or walking my dog, movement really sets me up for the day.

Exercise gives me energy, lifts my mood, and helps me feel calm and focused. I truly believe that age is no barrier to feeling your best, both physically and mentally, and that it’s never too late to start.

With over 20 years of experience in the fitness industry, I’m a fully qualified Personal Trainer and Fitness Instructor dedicated to helping others lead healthier, more fulfilling lives. Sharing my knowledge and supporting clients as they grow in strength and confidence is one of the most rewarding parts of my work.

My own fitness journey began in my teens, trying everything from Judo and Horse Riding to Aerobics and Tai Chi. Over time, I discovered Strength Training and Pilates, which became lifelong passions. I even continued exercising right up until a week before giving birth to my children.

My husband always encouraged me to teach fitness, but at the time I lacked the confidence and life was busy with two young children. Eventually, I took the plunge and qualified in Exercise to Music, Gym Instruction, and Fitness Pilates, the start of my career in the fitness industry.

Since then, I have continued to expand my knowledge with qualifications in Pilates, Personal Training, GP Referral, Older Adult Fitness, Pre and Postnatal Exercise, and Exercise Following Stroke (Level 4).

I enjoy creating simple, effective exercise programmes, both online and face to face, designed to help people build strength, stay motivated, and feel their best. I believe fitness should fit into your lifestyle: it should be accessible, enjoyable, and built around realistic goals so that it becomes something you can sustain for life.

Sally and I have known each other for many years, so working with her feels completely natural. She is not only my business partner but also one of my closest friends. We bounce ideas off each other,  support one another, laugh a lot, and genuinely have fun along the way!
