Hi, I’m Shadé, the trainer behind PunkFitness!

I created PunkFitness for the people who don’t always see themselves in typical fitness spaces.

Maybe the gym feels overwhelming.

Maybe fitness culture has made you feel like an outsider looking in.

I understand how intimidating it can feel to take your health into your own hands, or to look at your goals and think they are impossibly far away.

Having lost 110lbs / 50kg, I know first-hand what it feels like to be lost and self-conscious at the gym, and when it comes to not knowing what to do to put yourself on track. That’s where I come in :) I aspire to help people feel strong, capable and confident in the gym.

My approach focuses on sustainable progress, consistent encouragement, and strength building, without the pressure to be perfect.
