Nutrition and fitness training that fits the life you actually live.

Hi, I'm Yolandé. Registered dietitian, qualified personal fitness trainer, and stubborn believer in not making it complicated. I've been doing this since 2003 and I still love it.

If you're tired of plans that ask you to eat boring chicken and bland broccoli three times a day, every day, for the rest of your life, then I can help you.

How I work

Less hype. More habit.

Most people don't need another diet plan. They need a way of eating and moving that doesn't feel like punishment. That's where I come in.

We start with a proper conversation about how you live right now. Then we figure out small, doable changes you can actually keep on doing. I know that the best way to do this is to work with what you like to eat, drink and do, and then see how we can make this work for you.

You leave with a plan that fits your weekly schedule, your fridge, your wallet and your social life.

01

We talk.

An honest conversation about where you are, what's been getting in the way, and where you'd like to get to.

02

We test.

Small changes, properly measured. Real data, no guesswork.

03

We tweak.

We adjust as life changes. The goal is something you can easily stick with for years, not weeks.

About

20+ years. Same passion.

I qualified as a dietitian in 2003 and have been working with private clients, corporates, government, the food industry and the media ever since. I'm based at Virgin Active Foreshore, where I run my consulting and training.

Outside of work, you'll find me experimenting with new recipes, exploring the winelands with my partner, being in nature, reading a good book, spending time with animals or enjoying TV shows and podcasts (yes, you can recommend some to me!)
