I had no idea how much stepping into that hoop (and often hanging precariously upside down) would change my life! Alayna has an incredible way of gently nudging you out of your comfort zone while making you laugh at how awkwardly graceful you look in the process. She’s helped me achieve things I never thought possible, and honestly, it’s been the most fun I’ve had in ages.
Alayna, you are freaking amazing. Thank you for the last six months of strength, sweat, and laughter.

I definitely wasn’t expecting to receive a diagnosis or make any of the changes I did when I first came to you and I am so grateful to see how far I have come in just 6 months. You have been such a positive light and I have genuinely looked forward to every session learning from you. You have helped me make massive changes that I have struggled to target my whole life and I can confidently carry on from our sessions with hope that I am going to continue growing. After dealing with so many health care professionals that have not seemed to really care or listen to me at all, I appreciate all of your listening and just being totally real throughout.

The session with Alayna gave me some total gems to experiment with. One simple change has seen me sleeping through the night since starting it! She gave me a list of supplements to trial and some scientific information about hormones and cycles (she's deeply qualified). With so much misinformation out there, it was fab to not spend time researching without even knowing if what you're reading is correct. It was great to be able to speak to someone who knew about women's health, HRT, hormones and nutrition in a session tailored for me and my needs. She delivered it with care, compassion and knowledge. Highly recommend.
