About Natalie Mendlesohn
Natalie was a high school teacher for almost 10 years. Alongside her job, she has always loved & lived all things fitness - so while she was still a teacher, she took various qualifications and set up fitness classes to help other women move and increase their strength. She had her first child and whilst on maternity leave, built up a solid business of 1:1 clients, which meant she could leave her traditional teaching career and dive head first into being self employed. Now she trains mums online and in person through her fitness programs.
