Certified Girls Gone Strong Women's Coaching Specialist

Welcome! 
I'm an experienced women's Personal Trainer, coach, and qualified yoga teacher with 14 years' experience helping women of all ages, shapes, and sizes build strength, confidence, and a body they love.
I'm passionate about empowering women to optimise their Fitness, Nutrition, and Mindset to get in the best shape of their life. No fads, no extremes, just sustainable results. 
Specialist in Women aged 35-70 in perimenopause through to post menopause. 

Are you ready to feel strong, confident, and capable—so you can do more of what you love? 

I get it! You're over diets and extreme exercise—they don’t work anymore, and the results have stopped coming. Every time you try, the weight creeps back (sometimes even more than before), and it’s beyond frustrating. On top of that, new symptoms are making life harder, and the flood of misinformation isn’t helping. You're busy, stressed, and struggling to find time to cook nourishing meals—let alone enjoy movement. And when you do manage to exercise, it just hurts.

Coach Wendy Maree Tidal River

You’ve tried every diet out there, but deep down, you know there must be a better way to stay fit and manage your weight—one that allows you to stay active and healthy for life. You want to feel strong, fit, and energised so you can travel, walk on pristine beaches, climb mountains, hike through the wilderness, and spend quality time with your tribe.

 

  • Hit a weight loss plateau?
    Or maybe you just want to check in and ensure you're maintaining optimal health with the latest evidence-based strategies?

​​

  • Have a special occasion, event, or trip coming up?
    You want to look and feel your absolute best.
     

The way you live your life will literally transform when you experience what being strong and fit truly means for you. With newfound confidence—how you carry yourself, how you move—you’ll find yourself rewriting your goals as you step into this new chapter.

Small, consistent changes lead to big, lasting results. With expert guidance, you can finally achieve the results you’ve been dreaming of and create the life you deserve.

I’m an experienced Personal Trainer, yoga teacher, and Women’s Coaching Specialist with expertise in Women’s Health, Fitness, Nutrition, and Mindset.

Together, we’ll develop your goals and create a personalised program that keeps you progressing.

As your goals evolve, we’ll adapt your plan—so you can continue seeing results.

Here are just some of the goals you can achieve:

Through Custom Fitness Programs:
​
GET READY FOR CHANGE TO HAPPEN! 
​

​

  • Defy society's expectations and refuse to fade into the background. 

  • Build strong, defined muscles while reducing body fat—without chasing a 'bulky' look (unless that's your goal!). Instead, shape a lean, muscular physique that makes you feel strong and confident.

  • Strengthen your bones and muscles to counteract frailty and sarcopenia through aging—helping you stay healthy and maintain a strong metabolism. 

  • Improve your strength and fitness for an active life—whether that’s bushwalking, hiking, climbing mountains, or excelling in your favourite sports and hobbies.

  • Enhance your stability, mobility, and overall movement so your body functions at its best.

  • Progress safely and effectively with a tailored program that challenges you at just the right level—helping you achieve lasting results, build confidence, and truly love your body.

  • Learn proper technique so you always feel at home in any gym, ready to tackle your workouts with confidence.

  • Find movement you genuinely enjoy, making it easier to achieve and maintain the results you’ve been aiming for.

  • Boost your metabolism and get better results with personalised strength and conditioning workouts.

  • Counteract the effects of daily life—whether that’s long hours sitting, standing, computer work, or physical labour.

  • Strengthen your pelvic floor and deep core to prevent issues like light bladder leakage.

  • Ditch the ‘no pain, no gain’ mentality. Stop doing workouts that leave you exhausted and sore without results. Train smarter, not harder!​

Through Nutrition & Health Coaching: 
​​​​

  • Tailored Sport & Exercise Nutrition Coaching to help you reshape your body and feel your best.

  • Training is just one piece of the puzzle—nutrition, sleep, stress, and recovery are just as important for sustainable fat loss and long-term weight management.

  • Transform your health using my Hierarchy of Fat Loss and key pillars of well-being.

  • Forget calorie-burning workouts and restrictive ‘eat less, exercise more’ advice! I’ll help you find an approach to eating that suits your preferences and lifestyle—so you can nourish yourself, eat enough, add nutrient-dense foods, and support your training without ever starving yourself.

  • Ditch the diet rollercoaster and finally learn how to lose weight and keep it off—no fads, just sustainable habits.

  • Discover how the right foods can improve your gut health, ease bloating, and reduce discomfort.

  • Take control of cravings for inflammatory foods that leave you feeling sluggish, affect your insulin sensitivity, and contribute to unwanted weight gain.

  • Emotional eating and cravings aren’t about willpower—learn to make space for your emotions instead of reaching for food, because dieting won’t work until you heal from the inside out.

  • Reduce stress, improve recovery, and get the quality rest and sleep your body needs.

  • Thrive through peri/menopause with confidence—let go of what others think, set boundaries, and prioritise yourself.

  • Start looking after YOU—body, mind, and spirit.

  • Cultivate self-love and self-care in a way that feels right for you.

  • Find balance and harmony so you can feel vibrant, energetic, and strong again.

  • Break old habits that no longer serve you and create a lifestyle that supports your goals.

  • Sleep better, feel more relaxed and less stressed, and rediscover your spark.

  • Make movement a natural part of your day—even with an office job.​

Through Strong Beyond 50 Online Classes:
​

​

  • ​Get fitter, stronger, toned, and lose fat with fun online fitness classes specifically designed for Women Beyond 50.​

  • Workout in the comfort of your own home or caravan, using dumbbells and bodyweight.

  • Reduce fat and improve muscle tone so your body looks and feels amazing.

  • Stay strong and fit so you can enjoy life (without those nagging aches and pains).

  • Make the most of your time—no more wasting hours on exercise that doesn't work.

  • Get stronger and fitter so you can spend more time doing the things you love.

Coach Wendy Maree absolutely amazing! She has changed my life, one powerful, inspirational woman. 

I reached out to wendy just after the new year kicked off looking for someone to help me lose the weight I had gained during my pregnancy (bub was 3 months when I first contacted Wendy) I had never had personal training ever before so I was feeling very anxious on top of feeling mentally, emotionally & physically defeated (those feels that most mummas get even though all my kids eat, sleep & are physically well).
 
I just was living my days doing everything for my kids & partner & just hiding out inside my home when possible ashamed of how I had let myself go. Well Wendy made me feel so extremely comfortable from the moment I walked into her home gym. From learning the correct way to use gym equipment, learning breathwork & setting a good work out pace, to learning nutrition & making the area of my workout a safe zone for myself to just be me!
 
Wendy has given me so much of my life back. I feel confident! I feel healthy! I feel so good where I am at with my head space & most importantly I feel like I am a better mother, partner & person within myself. I will always be so grateful to have crossed paths with the beautiful Wendy. My day to day life was literally crumbling like bread crumbs with anxiety & it was so unhealthy for me. I have taken every bit of advice & encouragement this woman has given me & continued to reach for the stars. I feel amazing, thankyou Wendy for being my number one cheer squad! thankyou for being my daughter's little bestie while I could focus & put 100% in to the time I spent with you. Thankyou for all you have put into me. I highly recommend this lady to anyone ready to make time for themselves & have someone not just be a coach but someone that will take the journey with you.

Wendy has a wealth of knowledge specifically focused on women, their bodies and training needs. She’s thorough, kind and trains you in a way that you can feel and see yourself getting stronger but without feeling exhausted and overworked.
 
I loved every session I had with her; group based and 1:1. Wendy also worked alongside my ‘cardio’ trainer to format a plan that complimented my strength training so we were all working towards the same goal. I’d LOVE to train with her again but distance see’s us hours apart.

Caroline


I have just finished an 8-week program with Wendy and can highly recommend her for a number of reasons:

- a very reasonable cost for what she provides
- a lovely environment to train in- willing to go the extra mile to make programs work for her clients.
- friendly and helpful
- passionate about strength training
- Takes the time to understand what you are trying to achieve and takes that into account when constructing a program for individuals.
- last but my no means least, Wendy knows her stuff!

I was fortunate enough to have 1:1 training with Wendy. She gently coached me through the correct way of doing the training. No matter how many times I would forget what a particular exercise entailed, she very patiently coached me through it each time.


If you’re looking for someone in the area, do contact Wendy.

No - thank you. Without our catch ups I would still be a mess. I feel healthier than I have for years. 

Pauline

Wow, Matilda and I are loving our training sessions. Great program with a great trainer. Thanks Wendy

Larissa

I'm not keen on posting a photo of myself like this, but I am keen on supporting small businesss. So if you are looking for a new personal trainer, or looking to get back to strength training again after a long time like me I highly recommend trying out a session with Wendy.
