“Simone has changed my life in such a positive way in a very short time. I am 27 with a hip dysplasia and have been struggling with chronic pain and fatigue for around 4 years now. I have tried every type of therapy under the sun which has not helped so, I am so grateful to have finally found Simone at Body In Sync.
Simon has changed my diet, added the correct supplements and trains me every week to help eradicate the inflammation and tired brain that I’ve been suffering with for all this time. And that she has done!! I finally feel like I’m on the right track to getting back to a pain free life and am so excited to continue to watch the progress that comes to my body and mind. I highly recommend Body In Sync as this is not your average personal training experience, this is an all-rounder body, mind and soul healing journey. Thank you, Simone! ”

“I have been seeing Simone for 1 year now. It has undoubtedly been the best investment I have ever made for myself, health, and well-being. After years on my own trying all types of eating patterns and fitness regimes nothing was moving. I decided to go to a professional. I was a little skeptical as I thought what can she do that I can’t? Simone assured me on my first visit she could help me. After following a plan tailored just for me, after only 3 weeks I saw change. After a year I have achieved my desired healthy weight. As a result, it has alleviated other health issues. It has also taught me great self-discipline and given me more self-confidence. My body has reset to its healthy weight. Even after a recent 10-night holiday of enjoying cocktails and dining out every night my weight remained the same. I am extremely happy and grateful to Simone and cannot recommend her enough.”

“I came to Simone wanting to improve my fitness and strength. However, from the first meeting it became very apparent that there was a whole lost that needed to be worked through to ensure I could maximise my body’s capabilities and to thrive. Since then she has systematically been adjusting my posture, working on my breathing and ensuring the whole chain through my body does what it is meant to do, resulting in less stress and more energy, strength and fitness! She is incredible and really knows her craft. She understands everyone is unique and tailors every session to what my body needs at that moment. It’s not a cookie cutter approach. 5 stars!!!”
— Matthew Linnecar
“For a decade I had been living with pain and debilitating symptoms every day. Simone was able to pinpoint the exact issues I was having and after 2 weeks I no longer had pain and many of my other symptoms were gone or reduced. I now know what is like to have energy and clear head for the first time in so long! I didn’t realise the impact fatigue and brain fog was having on my life doing daily tasks, being a wife and mother, until it had improved. I still have ways to go for a full recovery but I have improved so much in the last 6 months I look and feel like a completely new person! ”

“I was in a personal crisis when I discovered Simone’s genius. I was working out 5-6 times a week, but without much understanding of what I was doing and I created some major issues for myself. I was losing function of my legs, I was in immense back pain and I didn’t know why. In my session, Simone read me like a book. The intense pain began to reduce from our first session together and then the road to recovery and beyond began...
I’m becoming fitter, faster, stronger, healthier and more flexible than ever before. I’ve discovered so much wisdom on how to work out properly that I never knew before. What I’ve learnt with Simone I’ll take with me for the rest of my life.
This has been a wonderful investment of time and money and Simone has been a delight to work with! If you’re looking for a high level health and fitness consultant, Simone can take you where you’ve never been. Her unique combination of wisdom, insight and skill sets position her to get you results that other’s will never get for you.
I highly recommend her amazing and diverse services!”
— Benji Alexander
“Before seeing Simone my immune system was low, I was catching infections easily, I was fatigued, had headaches, my mood was all over the place and was experiencing bloating. After changing my nutrition and starting exercise again I feel amazing. I’m no longer experiencing the symptoms I was before. Highly recommend Simone.”
— Nina Thomson
“Simone has provided me with a complete wellbeing programme fusing diet, lifestyle advice and a constantly changing fitness programme that keeps me conditioned with a well balanced body. Besides enjoying twice weekly 1 to 1 sessions, I seek her advice on all aspects of my health and wellbeing including personalised diet and treatment protocols as required. Simone is a caring passionate practitioner with an amazing depth of knowledge. Simones ability to both explain, demonstrate and teach her programs is truly exceptional and I can’t recommend her highly enough. I now have great awareness and tools enabling me to enjoy a great life with a wonderful sense of vitality and wellbeing. ”
— Albert Slack
“I have known Simone for over 12 years - firstly as my personal trainer and then seeking her expertise as a nutritionist, and natural medicine practitioner.
Unfortunately for me, Simone moved away from Auckland, and my training sessions came to end. I still contact her whenever I need advice and assistance for health issues and have sought her help several times over the years with great success.
Most recently, I have needed her help for the ongoing and frustrating symptoms of menopause. A visit to the doctor and conventional medicines had not helped and were just masking the issues so I turned to Simone.
What I always find with Simone is that she listens, asks questions and provides a treatment and lifestyle protocol which is suited to my individual needs. In my personal experience when I follow her protocols and advice I always get very positive results.
You can’t put a $ figure on good health and I would not hesitate to recommend Simone as someone who looks at the whole person and goes the extra mile to get great results. ”

“I joined Body In Sync with Simone in November 2021 and it was the best decision I’ve made in regards to my health, fitness, and wellbeing. My goal was to restart my fitness and wellbeing after a couple of stressful, full-on years. I thought I was eating relatively well and keeping active but my weight and energy levels seemed to stay the same or improve for a short time only. After chatting to Simone over the phone I made the decision to make the change. Simone was amazing. She wasn’t judgy, making an effort to get to know me and finding out what was going on. Following a thorough consultation, she offered a personalised programme that worked on kick-starting my journey to better health through a holistic approach. Simone combined nutrition specific to my needs alongside an ever-changing workout program. This is all done while encouraging positive mental health. It can be as simple as reading my mood when I turn up and making adjustments to include yoga or pilates, mindfulness or breathing techniques. In the past I have had trouble with my form with specific exercises but Simone guides me and ensures I am training safely and accurately. She has incredible patience! She also listens if I have anything going on with my body and recommends nutritional supplements or dietary changes I can make to alleviate the issue. Simone has an incredibly kind and calm nature. I feel very lucky to have stumbled across her online and have no hesitation when recommending her as an holistic personal health practitioner. My whole mindset towards nutrition and fitness has changed. I am eating well, physically fit, and feel better than I have in years. Thanks, Simone!”
— Rachel Carpenter
“Simone has been my personal trainer for nearly 2 years and I am not overstating it to say that she has made an enormous difference to my overall health and wellbeing. I work in an office and sit at my desk most of the day and I felt that I was losing muscle function and strength. Simone has turned that around with her unique blend of strength training, pilates, ballet exercises and yoga techniques. No routine is the same and is specifically designed by Simone for maximum results. This is a totally different and superior experience than joining a gym.
But Simone is much more than a personal trainer, she is also a qualified nutritionist and provides advice about diet, supplements, health issues, lifestyle and emotional wellbeing. She has become a good friend and I value her advice on all of these things. She is passionate about what she does and she gives her total commitment to ensuring the best possible results. I am grateful for the care and attention she gives to my health.”
— Chris Hunt
“Simone has literally changed my life. From being tired all the time, grumpy, fuzzy-headed, depressed and overweight, I was lucky to get through the day without four coffees and a “nana nap”. I thought that was normal, and that most people were like me. Since meeting Simone, I have learned so much, and shed 14kg through a healthy eating plan and safe, enjoyable exercise. For the first time ever, this has not found its way back. I have been encouraged to take responsibility for my future well-being in a way that is manageable and incremental, and now I can happily reject foods I used to crave.
I feel great, my skin looks and feels better and my body is more toned and flexible than it was 20 years ago. Simone’s knowledge of nutrition and how this affects the body is extraordinary. This, coupled with her professional exercise training makes her one of a kind, and I feel very lucky to have found her.”
— Liz Welch
“Wow! Simone thank you so much for giving me my life back. Your ability to see the individual and not just a new client shows the real talent you have. I was sceptical at first that taking supplements was going to work but my faith in you has shown great results and I now feel and look better than I ever had. Having been overweight all my life I now can proudly say that not only have I lost nearly 20 kilos but almost more importantly I have kept the weight off for 8 months. This may not seem a big achievement but to me it is huge triumph because by now with any other programme I would have lost weight but 8 months on it would all be back plus a few extra kilos. If you are ready to commit to change your habits of a lifetime and claim back your life then Simone is the person to see.”

“I first went to Simone for weight loss in 2008. She stood out from all the other trainers I had seen with her unique ways, customising her clients workouts, having fun and offering helpful, supportive advice and correcting technique. No 2 workouts are ever the same. To call Simone a Personal trainer and Nutritionist isn’t enough. She’s my life coach, fitness/exercise guru, holistic nutritionist and friend. She always takes the time to listen, is caring and always dedicated to helping me achieve my personal goals. Seven years on despite an old knee injury I have shed 16kg and kept it off, she has helped me to redefine my body shape, gain strength, flexibility and boost my self confidence. I have a completely new and different approach and outlook on life. I engage in making healthy and positive choices for myself and my family. A holistic combination of diet,exercise, supplements and a positive outlook on life totally supports my emotional wellbeing and helps me to cope with whatever life throws at me. It is an exciting and rewarding journey that brings abundance on all levels and just keeps evolving. I thoroughly recommend her to anyone seeking change.”
— Tracy Adams
“I initially sought Simones help for a recurring Candida problem which Doctors were unable to successfully treat and resolve. After following Simones nutritional programme and taking the prescribed herbs and nutritional supplements I was finally cured. She has been and continues to be my go to person for myself and my family for nutritional advice and supplements on all things. At that time I also became a regular exercise client of hers. I love my fitness sessions with Simone. Every session is different and personally tailored to my needs. One on one training ensures that each exercise she gives is performed correctly, ensuring the best outcome with exceptional results. I never get bored, I feel healthy, look well, and have a super tight toned body. She is a one stop nutritional, exercise, health and well being guru.”

“When you look back at your life direction, you will be able to identify some key decisions you have made that significantly influenced the path you took and the ensuing quality of your life. Five years ago I decided I had to lose weight and get fit and stay that way.
My strategy was to enter the New York marathon. I lost 27kgs, and completed the marathon. Just to complicate it, I have a lung condition that gives me about 35% normal capacity. I have run 3 marathons since. The only reason I succeeded is the decision I made to engage Simone. A passionate, talented and results focused professional nutritionist and a totally commited and highly effective fitness trainer. Thank you Simone.”
— Owen Nash
“Simone delivers professional personal training of the highest order, based on her expert knowledge of the physiology of exercise. She knows exactly how to design training sessions that are tailored to my needs and ability. The sessions are designed so that I can get the maximum benefit from the exercises, without injury and, more importantly, so that I will want to show up for the next session. I have been training with Simone for almost 2 years. I am never bored, because the training sessions are never the same. If, like me you are a woman of small build and getting older, you owe it to your bones to get fit and do some weight training. Don’t imagine that you can do it on your own - you can’t. Unless you are super woman, you need expert help. I can’t recommend Simone enough.”
— Nicolene Du Toit
“I thought I was a relatively fit and healthy person with a reasonable diet and exercise regime despite a really busy lifestyle with work, travelling most weeks overnight, a family and mortgage etc...In reality I was feeling frustrated that I just couldn’t achieve my desired outcomes even with my best efforts. On recommendation I sought Simone’s help. She changed my diet taking into consideration my life style, health goals. I started working out with her every week and eight months later I had lost 8 kg and 3 inches off my waist. I am fitter, more energetic, stronger, more flexible, have greatly improved my posture and am achieving run times better than 10 years ago. If you really want to achieve outstanding results and realise your personal best then look no further. I thoroughly recommend Simone.”
— Ian Welch
“I have never meditated as I thought I was incapable. I could not imagine sitting still without contemplating my next move. Simone’s Yoga Nidra (Restorative Yoga) was amazing and has already made a difference to my daily stress levels. Next thing will be Yin yoga classes - anyone interested?”
— Lynette Hendrikse
“Simone is my one stop shop for nutrition, personal training and mind/spiritual wellness. I’ve lived in the UK, Middle East, America & NZ and have never known such a highly accomplished expert in ALL of these fields. Simone’s knowledge is outstanding and her passion speaks for itself. Best call I ever made, cannot recommend her highly enough! My partner & I are also loving her restorative yoga sessions on Saturday mornings - our favourite part of the week. Thanks for changing everything for the better Simone!”
— Caroline Brown
“I used to be tired by 3pm and craving coffee to keep me going. I had tried everything to loose weight from Jenny Craig to the latest craze, any diet that offered a glimmer of hope.
After bumping into a friend one day, I was amazed at how great she was looking and she told me she was seeing Simone an inspiring holistic nutritionist who had corrected her vegetarian diet, sort her health issues so she could loose weight and was training with her twice a week to shape, tone and strengthen her body. So I made an appoinment, hoping that maybe this time I would be able to achieve results too. At my initial visit, Simone diagnosed me with adrenal fatigue, a leaky gut and a candida problem. It was a relief to finally have some answers instead of being told I just needed to rest. Six months on, following her advice, I have lost 10 kilos, don’t crave coffee anymore, I feel alive and my health has vastly improved. Also my fitness and strength after seeing Simone twice a week to get my body back in shape has been amazing. The entire diet for my family has changed, we are so much more aware of the right foods to eat and no take responsibility for what we put into our bodies. What started out as a means to loose weight has been a journey, which has changed my life. The advice and encouragement Simone has given me has been motivating, inspiring and incredibly supportive. Simone has provided me with the skills I now use to look after my family, my relationship with food and the environment in a new and positively healthy way.”
