As I write this … a testimonial of heart felt love and joy at having the opportunity to meet with you via Uplifted Kundalini Teacher Training. Your support in the tuition has been more than 100%… explanations and demonstrations supported every question asked - be they postural, language, literature and technology 😉 But most of all the radiance of love, excitement and passion for life radiates from you. I truly feel the universe placed me under your loving wings as I and many others have learned to spread our own wings. You are an inspiration to me and I am truly grateful. With love

Maria is a great communicator, her teaching is always clear and super easy to follow. She provides a very nurturing experience for all who learn and interact with her and she’s seems to intuitively know what each individual needs and adapts her teaching to help you get the most out of her classes. I love the combination of movement, positive thought, breath and mantra that Maria’s classes provide that leave you smiling Inside and out.
I have had the absolute pleasure and privilege of working with Maria for just over a month and I have learnt so much from her. She teaches in a very gentle and kind way, very clear and concise and it is always fun, with laughter aplenty. I am currently partaking in Kundalini yoga 1-2-1 with her and they are well worth the investment in myself, I am feeling more centered, more connected and also more flexible, at 42 this is so valuable and it has had a knock on effect with my gym training as well as my personal and professional life. Her after care is second to none and any questions or queries I have, she is only a message away, she also uploads the sessions we've had, so I can carry on my practice in my own time. I thoroughly recommend Maria to everyone I know and also to the person reading this. You won't regret it
I been training with Maria for over 5 years now and she is an awesome personal trainer, yoga expert and kinesiology practitioner. We have several sessions per week, usually online and she always runs well thought through and planned sessions. We do a mix of PT to build strength and yoga to support flexibility. Her instructions are very clear and she does the workout with me which creates a feeling of camaraderie and support. She is motivational, always enthusiastic and has a great sense of humour! I feel confident in her expertise and knowledge as a trainer. Her huge depth of experience means she can stretch me without causing injury. She demonstrates things and quickly corrects my inevitable mistakes. She is always cheerful so the sessions go quickly and has an inner kindness that goes way beyond the session providing materials and coaching to help with food, stretching or exercise plans to do in between sessions. I would highly recommend her as an all round practitioner for anyone looking to get in shape or to ease aches and pains. I have had really great results, helping me stay pain free
I met Maria at one of my lowest points in life. She was not only an amazing personal trainer she allowed me to connect to myself again. Maria took the time to get to know me, she listened and heard me like no one else. With various health issues I didn't know if I could train. But Maria took time to create a personal program for me. While weight loss wasn't the goal I shifted so much weight I was carrying, both physically and mentally. Now training in Kundalini Yoga with Maria has further grounded me. She is an angel. I believe her purpose is to allow others to find theirs.
I’ve been having sessions with Maria for about a year, we call every other week. Maria is a great teacher and a supportive figure. She helps me learn how to cope with my emotions and she normalises these feelings. Maria has helped me grow massively since last year. I used to suffer from anxiety but now I’m much stronger and have a much better outlook on life. Maria is a positive influence and has a lot of useful techniques to share. I definitely recommend talking to Maria and learning from her. She will support you.
I started training with Maria to loose some weight and to also help with my back problems. Maria found I have a saco iliac disfunction “very tight hips” my strength & fitness improved so much in a short space of time using the EMS machine. I felt cured... more energetic & looked better. Maria’s tips on nutrition is outstanding she would send me texts of what I should & shouldn’t be eating too. Maria always goes that extra mile to help, she always did my measurements & stretches me out at the end of each session. I very much appreciate the help & advice in recommending me to an osteopath. I have become stronger, leaner & have much better posture. Maria is fun, caring committed & inspired myself to do a personal training course. I would 100% recommend Maria to train you & change your life
I met Maria in March 2016, 17 months after the birth of my daughter Amelia. My husband who is a Physiotherapist recommended her as he knew I was keen to work with a female trainer who had had children (and maybe understood the challenges I was facing!) Following an informal chat over coffee (well Maria had a water) at my home, I quickly decided that I liked the idea of Maria’s holistic approach and we got to work immediately. My personal goal was to lose some weight, get trimmer and get stronger. I kept a 24hr a day food diary which involved me sending Maria pics of everything I ate and drank – I found this particularly affective as a way of self- managing my food intake but it also allowed Maria to see what I wasn’t eating/drinking. Every Thursday morning I had a PT session which started with calculating my body fat. This was a game changer for me! Instead of getting hooked up on losing weight (which I have fixated on since my teenage years) my focus was reducing my body fat. Maria developed a training programme for me which incorporated weight lifting. This introduced me to the concept of building muscle not in terms of getting bulky but re-shaping my body. And over a period of 12 weeks I saw a remarkable change in body shape; shoulders and arms more defined, thighs more toned and bottom perkier! I have found Maria to be incredibly supportive, motivating and always honest. In a nutshell Maria has completely changed my approach to exercise and nutrition. I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone who is looking to improve their fitness and lifestyle.
I trained with Maria for at least half a year and absolutely loved it! There were a number of reasons for this: • Maria uses a holistic approach to wellness. Maria didn't just look at excercise, but she carefully examines your diet. Moreover, she doesn't have a 'one-size-fits-all' approach to diet and excercise schedules, but she makes sure to tailor things to your body type and also explains the "why" behind every training/diet decision made, which greatly helps with motivation and understanding. Over and beyond her great expertise in the diet/exercise field, Maria is trained in numerous holistic wellbeing practices which are a magnificent addition to tackle any stubborn or difficult issues. • Maria is an incredibly friendly and positive person and it was always a lot of fun training with her. That said, even though we became friends over time, Maria always stayed professional and made sure I pushed myself hard during sessions. • Whenever I had an injury or struggled with something, Maria would work around these issues and tailored my training program to what my body could output at a given time. • Maria is extremely supportive and genuinely cares about her clients achieving their goals. Maria always supported me through hard times, and I could see that she genuinely cared about me as a human being, making training a lot more fun and really inspiring me to work hard. • Maria is a fantastic role model and practices what she preaches! 🙂 I can without a doubt recommend Maria as a health and fitness specialist and wish that she was still in South Africa so that I can continue training with her
I've been working with Maria for 5 months and have seen unbelievable results during that time. I have never felt stronger or healthier. Maria is passionate about fitness and it shows through the energy and enthusiasm she brings to every session. Her friendly personality creates a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere. She makes each workout challenging, creative and most importantly, fun! She also places a high value on correct form and technique with each exercise. She motivates me to push past my perceived limits to get results. If you are serious about changing your life for the better, Maria will lead you every step of the way.
I am 62 years old. I had a back operation 5 years ago. I have been living on anti-inflammatories and fisio therapy ever since because of my back causing spasms, stiffness and pain. After joining Maria’s classes everything changed. I have not been for fisio and hardly ever take anti-inflammatories. Maria taught me the importance of exercise. The way of eating she prescribes is healthy and easy to follow. After detoxing you have amazing energy. Maria believes in and has a passion for her work. Her knowledge and willingness to go the extra mile and then some is to be commended. I can recommend Maria to young and old – you can only benefit from her knowledge, her sincere interest in your specific needs and her lovely personality.
I wish to thank you for your sharing your knowledge, encouraging, belief, positivity and down to earth attitude in helping me reach a point I didn't believe possible. I originally asked for your help to reach further weight loss as I had been visiting the gym regularly and reached a plateau. Upon contacting you and you asking what I wished to achieve you mentioned more expertise advice that you could provide me, not just weight loss, but to achieve high fitness and health levels, all of which you knew were possible. I have to admit I was slightly narrow minded in your ability and quickly learned of your experience and your knowledge after our very first session. You diagnosed my back issues, understood my sciatica issues. You had empathy in my hip tightness, and understood my strengths and weaknesses very quickly, all in the first session. You noted quickly, when we met in subsequent sessions if I hadn't undertaken my "homework" exercises! Your help with reeducation me about food and the misrepresentation of food in the media has been an eye opener and how I now, never felt like I have missed out or deprived with food. I still enjoy eating out and alcohol but make small adjustments and better choices. I have never felt this good about myself for many years and have the confidence that this will continue and my new habits will continue. My sessions with you will also continue as this is not an end, but a continuous education in becoming the best me I can be with the tools and information I have. Thank you Maria for sharing your knowledge, positive attitude, ability to relate to us who are in need of improvement, but unable to know where to start, to make the first small step.
Maria is the best personal trainer I've ever had, having used various others in the past she is the only one I saw results with. Maria's knowledge is mind blowing, whatever she tells you to do listen and you will achieve exactly what you want. She's a lovely person and makes you feel so comfortable. Would honestly never use another trainer.
I have known and worked with Maria for a number of years. She has an incredible aptitude to health and is armed with evidence based advice and tips to support peoples health goals. A professional and holistic approach to health that will support your habits and fulfil your goals in a healthy way. Absolutely recommended!
Initially, before starting with Maria, I was a little dubious about how much difference anyone could make to me especially being pretty unfit and a fan of food. My Wife had been training with Maria for a few months and was getting on really well so I thought I’d give it a go. It was a steep curve initially and hard work, but very quickly I noticed my overall fitness improving week on week. The most noticeable improvement was to my stamina and fitness while Playing Roller hockey. This involves a lot of stop/start sprinting and suddenly I wasn’t struggling to sprint and could play much longer without getting fatigued. With Maria’s help, advice and daily food diary emails both my wife and I started eating much healthier along with the fitness training. This is when I noticed the weight start to shed and noticed the effect of the training more. Maria has a great wealth of knowledge ranging from fitness to food & nutrition and much more. Maria is very professional and always seems interested in getting the best out of the training for you, focusing on technique to help make the training as effective as possible. The training is always hard work, but I look forward to each session. Another great thing is that the training is varied, it’s not just the same old thing week in week out. Overall Maria is a great personal trainer, always friendly, helpful and above all delivers results (if you put the effort in yourself!) I would recommend her to anyone.
After practicing different types of sports for many years, a work out in the gym was never a real focus and I never really knew what I was doing with the weights. Therefore, decided to sought professional advice and I have been having training sessions with Maria for the last 6 months, which have proved to be very beneficial. Not only is Maria reliable, knowledgeable and professional, she is also a good motivator and provides a good structure for each session to meet objectives set. Overall I have definitely noticed a difference in stamina and fitness, which adds to my wellbeing. I appreciate the effort that Maria puts in and recommend anyone to try a session.”

I have known Maria for a year now. All the conditions in my life were ready , and being one of lives mysteries I was guided to Maria when I most needed. Without actually knowing , and through well lead Kundalini yoga , Maria has been actively shaping my spiritual development. Along with my daily meditations and kundalini yoga I have clarity in the way I process my thoughts and a calmness arises within to deal with what life throws at me. My body is free of any negative energy. I put this wholeheartedly down to the breath work I have learnt and have practiced for so long now. Along with a good diet I feel healthy mentally , spiritually and bodily. Our knowing and trusting personal friendship, and teacher pupil friendship has grown. Whilst in class and concentrating on each posture Maria talks us through the Kyas. Each class has a theme. Kundalini yoga , for me , brings out a wholeness that we all possess and this permeates through in to my whole day to day existence. I hope this is also having a positive effect on everyone I meet. With the radiance kundalini yoga fills us with - (I see this in Maria and feel it within myself) I see the true beauty of life once more. I can recommend Maria and really looking forward to her Kundalini workshop on the 7th November in Norwich
Maria I feel so blessed that you have been our support teacher...your love and dedication to each one of us given each of us the confidence to grow into our true identity and potential. The family you have nurtured like an adoring mother equipped us with the tools to fly the next. I feel that our wings are spreading and we are ready to join flying the heavenly skies with joy and love in our hearts. This is the love you have surrounded us with and I am deeply grateful to you and the entire team for this training. Totally remarkable experience.
Welcome to the Home of Deep Healing, Radical Self-Discovery, and Embodied Transformation.
Not the version shaped by anxiety, burnout, or survival mode—
But the vibrant, clear, connected being that lives at the core of your true self.
If you’ve tried therapy, workouts, diets, spiritual teachings, or self-help books and still feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unfulfilled—
It’s not because you’re broken.
It’s because you’re being called deeper.
Years ago, I was down, anxious, in pain, had rare illnesses, and emotional confusion. I felt disconnected from my body, my joy, and any sense of purpose. I didn’t know how to be me—let alone thrive.
But that breakdown became my breakthrough.
I stopped chasing fixes and started listening to my inner wisdom. I healed from the inside out—physically, emotionally, energetically—and in doing so, I reclaimed my life.
Now, I supports others do the same.
Mind. Body. Spirit. Energy. Emotion.
What I offer isn’t just another wellness trend. It’s a grounded, intuitive, and integrative approach that blends:
✔️ Kinesiology & Energy Medicine
✔️ Kundalini Activation
✔️ Nutritional Therapy
✔️ Breathwork & Somatic Release
✔️ Holistic Personal Trainer
✔️ Sound Healing, Reiki, Colour Therapy
✔️ Meditation & Nervous System Regulation
Every session, every program, every offering is tailored to you.
Because true healing isn’t one-size-fits-all.
You were born with a powerful, intelligent body and a radiant soul.
It’s time to reclaim both.
You deserve to feel strong, clear, and fully alive in your body. To drive this beautiful machine you were born to ride—with confidence, joy, and inner peace.
Whether you’re seeking healing from anxiety, trauma, illness, low energy, or emotional overwhelm—or you’re simply ready to live with more purpose, clarity, and freedom—this is the path back to you.
I support people of all ages and stages—teens, mothers, creatives, executives, elders—because healing isn’t about a demographic. It’s about a desire to feel better, live deeper, and come home to your truth.
My clients are seekers. Survivors. Sensitive souls and spiritual warriors.
People like you who are done with surface-level solutions and ready for something real.
I don’t just treat symptoms—I help you decode your body’s messages and release what’s been holding you back, so you can rise with vitality and purpose.
This is where fitness meets frequency, science meets spirit, and your story transforms into your strength.
You don’t need fixing. You need remembering.
You don’t need permission. You need reconnection.
And you don’t have to do it alone.
Together, we’ll uncover your deepest truth and activate your highest potential.
🌿 Let’s begin.
Because the life you were born to live is calling—and you’re ready to answer.
With over two decades immersed in energy medicine, holistic fitness, and mind-body wellness, I bring a deeply intuitive and multidimensional approach to healing. As a Holistic Personal Trainer, Nutritionist (specialising in supplements and Phytobiophysics), Kinesiologist, and Certified Kundalini Yoga Teacher, I don’t just support physical health—I help you unlock your full energetic, emotional, and spiritual potential.
Whether you come to me through fitness, fatigue, emotional burnout, chronic illness, or the quiet inner whisper that there’s more to life than what you’ve been living—every path leads back to the source: your true, radiant self.
I work with those who are ready to break cycles, shift belief systems, and embody long-lasting change. My work isn’t about short-term fixes or surface-level results. It’s about sustainable transformation, nervous system regulation, deep alignment, and reconnection with the truth of who you are.
This journey isn’t linear, and it isn’t formulaic. It’s deeply personal. Together, we find the way that resonates with your soul—a path that aligns your physical body, emotional heart, and higher self. One that stands the test of time.
Because the truth is:
🌀 You are the answer you’ve been seeking.
You are the healer, the guide, the power behind your own transformation.
And this work? It’s just here to help you remember that.
