About Me
My journey in health and fitness began at just 18, spanning three continents, countless disciplines, and multiple certifications in Fitness, Nutrition, and Sports Therapy. Fast forward 25 years, and I’m proud to run Leo Tribe Fitness, founded in 2016 in Dubai.
What started as a small group fitness class for the community has grown into a thriving hub for women looking to get fit, strong, and confident. Over the past eight years, we’ve become known as the go-to destination for women-specific strength training and HIIT. We also offer mixed-gender functional training and a women-only focus conditioning class.
In the early days, I juggled running classes single-handedly while raising three kids. Now, Leo Tribe Fitness is a team of four dedicated coaches. Together, we deliver high-quality group fitness with the personalized attention of one-on-one training. But we’re not just about workouts. We’re a community—one that empowers individuals to embrace every stage of life with strength, vitality, and confidence.
My passion for helping others stems from my own health journey. Seventeen years ago, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition that forced me to completely rethink my approach to fitness and nutrition. I discovered the importance of strength—not just physical but mental—and how building sustainable habits could transform not only my body but my quality of life. That experience shaped the way I coach today, blending real empathy with science-backed training to help others live their healthiest, strongest lives.
About LEO
I’ve always believed that health and fitness should be a family affair. Raising my kids to understand the importance of caring for their minds and bodies with the right exercise and nutrition has always been a key part of my lifestyle. From pregnancy, through infancy, and beyond, they’ve been an integral part of my journey. Whether it was starting with a mum-and-baby class called Pram Jam, hosting mini garden Olympics, or now training together in the gym or on the track, my family has always embraced this lifestyle as one—a tribe.
The name Leo Tribe comes from my children: Lawrence (L), Evalie (E), and Olive (O). Together, their initials spell out LEO, and with both Evalie and Olive being Leo star signs, it felt like the perfect fit. The lion symbolizes fierce strength, confidence, and leadership—qualities that represent both my children and the values I want to inspire in others. Today, the word Tribe encompasses the amazing community of clients I work with. We all support, motivate, and lift each other up, truly embodying the idea that we are Stronger Together.
Our members come from all walks of life:
• New mums reclaiming their strength.
• Mums rediscovering themselves and prioritizing their health.
• Women navigating peri-menopause, looking to feel strong in body and mind.
• Men seeking an inclusive, non-competitive space to challenge themselves.
• Women aiming for their best shape yet, ready to push their limits.
• Individuals craving a community of like-minded people who embrace healthy living together.
• Anyone tired of BS fitness fads, looking for science-backed workouts and real nutrition solutions.
At Leo Tribe Fitness, we live by a simple principle: We are stronger together. Everyone is welcome here—every body, every goal.
