About

Before I introduce myself, I want to ask you a question. Are you a mum, regardless of your child’s age, who is struggling to find time to move forward on your health and fitness journey?

If you answered yes, then I'm your girl!

My philosophy is that health and fitness should be a part of your life. It isn’t a specific nutrition plan, it isn’t limiting yourself or doing things that you don’t want to do and most importantly it isn’t about taking yourself away or limiting what you can do with your family.

How it all started

HI, I’m Nikki, owner and trainer at Body 4 Mind Connections. I have worked as a qualified fitness professional in the Fitness Industry for over twenty years and before Body 4 Mind Connections, I ran a successful dance and fitness studio for 9 years.

My interest in training mums peaked when I fell pregnant with my first child. Undertaking qualifications in post-natal training, it became evident to me that our bodies go through a lot while producing and delivering the loves of our lives – our children.

After having my second child I found myself 20kg heavier than I wanted to be, dealing with unrealistic expectations of how I should be (whether those were in my head or portrayed in the media), busy in a way I have never been before and struggling to find time to get to scheduled exercise sessions because the children needed to sleep, eat or frankly, were just too hard to juggle that day.

I needed flexibility with my training, but also accountability. Someone making sure I was putting in the work but allowed me to do the work at a time that suited me. This is when my third baby, Mum-Me Fit Time was born! Online training that provides flexibility to train whenever and wherever it suits you. This soon evolved to include face to face training and with this, a strong sense of community.

One of the most common things I hear from the women I train is that they feel so much better after exercise. I felt there needed to be more emphasis on the connection between body & mind and in 2022, I rebranded my business to Body 4 Mind Connections.

My mission is to educate women to thrive in their health and fitness and to help them to feel the best version of themselves.
