- About
Chris (67) and Leisa (57) are outdoor fitness coaches specialising in strength, injury prevention and longevity for over-40s in Port Stephens. They've been helping people move better and stay strong for 20+ years, with a safety-first approach born from their own health challenges.
- Experience
20+ years. Chris and Leisa have been helping people in Port Stephens move better, stay strong, and avoid injury for over 20 years. In 2022, both underwent significant health challenges that reshaped their training philosophy.
