KIM
My love for health and fitness has always been part of who I am. Going through school I would try out for every sport just to get out of school work. I was a competitive swimmer training up to 9 times per week, I played competitive touch football and I had a love for cross country. My dream was to become a personal trainer, having the ability to work with people one on one was the ultimate for me, little did I know this dream would come true and I would meet the man of my dreams whilst doing it – yes Mr Beach was one of my clients….
I finished Year 12 at school and dove straight into a one-year full time administration and financial skills course after being advised by my careers advisor that there would be no pathway for me to make my dream a reality and I guess back then Personal Training wasn’t as popular as it is today. In hindsight, he actually did me a favour, being able to gain my administration skills has been the biggest blessing in running my business. After working in administration for a few years I decided to be proactive and fill the void inside of me which was the dream of becoming a personal trainer. I left my job and 100% embraced a 2-year full time Diploma in Fitness which covered every aspect of personal training such as exercise programming, exercise nutrition, marketing, sports specific training, injury prevention and would you believe it I am also a qualified water aerobics teacher! This course was everything to me, I studied hard and finished top of my class, nothing was going to stop me! I graduated and one of my teachers told me to go for an interview at the very first Vision Personal Training Studio and I got the job! So excited. I literally lived at the PT studio and took the work I was doing with my clients very seriously producing some incredible results! The self-satisfaction was HUGE!!
After having my two kids, I wanted to work in the fitness industry, but I didn’t want to work in a gym due to the crazy hours, so this idea was the catalyst in creating ‘Kim Beach’. After 10 years of building Kim Beach I am amazed at what John and I have been able to achieve, it has been the BEST!
Every day my top priority is personal growth, without it you will stay the same! I get excited to step out of my comfort zone and walk the tight rope – yes I will fall along the way which will lead to me to becoming smarter and stronger! Bring it on! x
