My Story

Hi, I'm Kirstie, the face behind Loud Fitness. If you'd have told young-me that she would one day be a fitness instructor, she would have laughed! As an exercise-phobe for most of my life, it was a surprise when I stumbled into a group fitness class and fell in love with it. The music, the laughs, the encouragement and the acceptance. It all just clicked and a new obsession was born. I crept my way from the back to become an FRD (front row diva) and took the plunge to become an instructor myself in 2017.

​

Within 18 months, I had certified in 5 Les Mills programmes, completed my yoga teacher training and had a few freestyle classes under my belt too. I was teaching back to back classes most evenings on top of my day job... That's ADHD for you! I used to say "I'll teach anything except spin and dance". But then, many years later, I saw RockFit on TikTok... a dance fitness class to rock?! My little metalhead heart swelled... A fitness class to my favourite music?? I had to be a part of this... even if it meant dancing!

​​

So I took the plunge and certified in a dance fitness class! Anyone who knows me will attest to the fact that I am not a dancer, but what I lack in finesse, I make up for in passion. It's the same with my yoga-based ZenRock classes. I am not the most flexible person out there, but I will guide you through what to do to get the most out of your bodies abilities. When you come to my classes don't expect perfection. What I can promise you instead is laughs, enthusiasm and a judgement-free space to let loose.
