Gareth became a fully licensed Acupuncturist (Lic.Ac) after apprenticing under highly regarded acupuncturist, Gerad Kite, in the Worsley style of Classical Five-Element Acupuncture. Since graduating, Gareth has been working in private practice in central and west London.

She says “my ultimate vision is to cut through the layers and self-limiting beliefs which are holding people back from being proud of themselves, from turning their goals into realities. Let’s stop talking about it and start doing! To know that I can make a difference is my kind of happiness… what’s yours?

Lauren is a fully qualified Level 3 Personal Trainer who is continuing to study corrective exercise and behavioural change techniques.
Prior to this she spent 10 years working in marketing for global brands until it took it’s toll on her own health and well-being. At this point she decided to turn her passion for exercise into a career.
Lauren is usually found outside doing something active or signing herself up to random challenges like ultra-marathons but equally has a very realistic approach to nutrition and exercise. Lauren encourages people to exercise for how it makes them FEEL – rather than how it makes them look.
She says, “It doesn’t take hours in the gym to benefit from being active, you can exercise anytime, anywhere for as long as you want. There are so many health or diet books out there overcomplicating everything and I just want to make being healthier more accessible to everyone. I aim to inspire people to be more active day to day, and I’m a great believer in knowing small changes can go a long way”
