Christie prides herself on being positive, enthusiastic and motivating, catering to their individual needs in a fun and supportive environment so they feel fitter, stronger and filled with a sense of achievement.

Christie created Active Soul nine years ago alongside the realisation that all too often Mums put everything else ahead of themselves – and while this has to happen sometimes – it’s easy to completely lose sight of their own needs. Over the years, Active Soul has evolved to provide a holistic approach to women’s health, fitness and wellbeing, offering classes that cater specifically to individual needs regardless of where Mums are at on their fitness journey.
Christie is passionate about Mums looking after themselves post-pregnancy and runs a monthly course at the Parents Centre in Birkenhead educating New Mums ensuring they ‘reset, recover, restore and realise their new potential as they move to embark on their post natal fitness journey.
As a new Mum herself, Christie understands that being a Mum can be a juggling act but has an empathetic and special way of reminding all of the mums she works with that in taking time for themselves, rebuilding fitness from the inside out and enjoying a workout, they will be better equipped to deal with everyday life both physically and emotionally.
Active Soul is all about community and Christie organises two annual charity 5K events that bring people together while raising awareness and funds for chosen charities.
Just one more way Mums can get out there, moving and feeling better for it!

Huge thanks for all your help getting me back to exercise and helping with everything post babies! You’re great and so knowledgeable.

Never thought I would see the day where I looked forward to exercising! Since meeting you I’ve been able to do that and I’m so grateful. Thank you for all the motivation.

I loved that I could take my baby to the classes as I didn’t have any family in Auckland to assist with childcare. Everyone was so friendly and I could get into fitness whilst being there for my little girl. I loved it and looked forward to going every week. Although I no longer have babies, I still go to Active Soul. Christie is fantastic and really supportive of what everyone’s personal needs and goals are. I don’t live on the North Shore but it’s worth the drive over the bridge to be part of Active Soul.

I love your classes and it was just the kick in the butt I needed to get me going. Thanks for being such a great motivator and friendly leader.

Christie is the most amazing trainer, both one on one PT and in the group classes. She has created a wonderful community of smart, passionate and inspiring women who share great laughs while working their butts off!

I have been going to Christie for nearly 2 years which is hugely impressive by my exercise standards!! She has kept me motivated, (I have done the same thing twice in the whole time), doesn’t let me quit,( turns up on your doorstep if you don’t make a session). I have had a damaged Achilles and RSI and she adapts the exercises to suit. I get to start my day with a great bunch of women who inspire me and have become friends, especially Christie who despite my grumpy moods at 6 am puts up with me and I am lucky to call her my friend.

I have been training in Christie’s group once a week for the majority of a year and love it! I have never been a runner and am starting to feel like one thanks to her groups. She is so down to earth, fun and pushes really hard for awesome exercise goals. What I also really love is that it is so kid friendly I have the option of taking my son if I need to. Highly, highly recommend.

I think Christie is one of those ‘once in a life time’ people who can support you to turn your life around and be the person you want be. Thanks Christie, you’re amazing.

I’ve been training with ‘Active Soul’ for 2 months and have seen amazing results in that time. Christie is passionate about fitness and it shows through the energy and enthusiasm she brings to every session. Her easy going, friendly personality creates a comfortable atmosphere for me for me to train in and she makes each workout challenging, creative and most importantly, fun! Christie places a high value on correct form with each exercise and motivates me to push past my perceived limits to get results. As a result, I have increased energy, my balance and flexibility has improved immensely and I feel stronger and healthier. Thanks Christie, you are the best!
