Been training in fitness/ bodybuilding since 1997 with
training partner
hippy (Stephen Stewart) trained at gym called McShanes
until it got blew
up, then moved to phoenix gym (Andy McIvor) where I
currently train when I
can in between looking after the two children (Ashtyn
7 and Drew 3).
I train 4 times a week, shoulders and tri’s,
back, legs, bicep and chest I do
abs most evenings. I’m no longer doing fitness
due to a back injury (prolapsed disc) but hope to take
a year out and come back to do class 2 figure and win
lol!
I’m doing toned figure as a stepping stone to
the Trained Figure this year (2006).
I am also a qualified NABBA judge, having shadowed
quite a few before moving
into the bigger comps... this year I am helping run
the fitness event at the
NABBA Worlds and judging the fitness too.
I have been a professional dancer for 20 years and
just recently retired I
was a cage dancer on the club circuits in north and
South Ireland , but
have backing danced for many famous stars including
Tina Arena , Natalie
Imbruglia on ITV and worked along side the likes of
Rod Hull and Emu the
Stiltskin, etc... I have done a lot of TV work here
at home including shows
and documentaries. I was also first girl to fight on
Sky television and have fought a lad too, and I won!!!!
I bring a bit of life and fun in all the shows especially
back stage, never
being too serious or stressed, I'm a bit brain dead
and your typical blonde
at times but I'm also cheeky, feisty, funny, and a bit
of a twit but sure,
doesn’t someone have to be?
