About Me

Sarah Gaddie-111.jpg

​I’m passionate about helping women navigate menopause with confidence, strength, and positivity.

 

At 58, I’m a proud mother of three amazing grown-up children, and I recently became a grandmother to a beautiful grandson. Life is busy, fulfilling, and joyful—and I’m thrilled to say that I’m sailing through menopause feeling in control and empowered.

 

For as long as I can remember, fitness has been a part of my life. Back in the 80s, I was an aerobics instructor.   Remember those thongs and legwarmer days?  Over the years, my focus shifted to supporting women through life’s unique stages. I began teaching postnatal and antenatal fitness classes, helping new mums stay active and confident. Later, I expanded my expertise to children’s fitness, believing in the importance of building healthy habits from a young age.

 

For the past 20 years, I’ve been a certified Pilates instructor. Pilates is more than exercise; it’s a way to strengthen the body, improve flexibility, and find balance in both mind and movement. My passion for Pilates eventually led me to specialize further. I trained as a pelvic floor and menopause coach because I saw the urgent need for expert guidance in these areas—both in my own life and for the women I was working with.

​

I also believe that what we put on and in our bodies plays a huge role in how we look and feel, especially during menopause.  That's why over the last 12 years I've been using plant based, toxin free skin care products and nutrition supplements.  These products have helped me maintain healthy glowing skin and feel vibrant and energised.  By avoiding harsh chemicals and focusing on clean, natural ingredients, I'm able to support my body from the inside and out.  It's a simple yet powerful way to take care of myself, and I love sharing these tools with the women I work with.

 

My Journey: From Personal Struggles to Empowering Women

 

Let me share something personal: like many women, I struggled with pelvic floor issues. I experienced leakage and all the embarrassment and frustration that comes with it. I realized that I couldn’t be the only one dealing with this—and I was right. It’s a topic so many women shy away from, but it’s also one of the most important aspects of our health and wellbeing.

 

Determined to take control of my own body, I embarked on training as a pelvic floor coach. What started as a mission to help myself quickly turned into a calling to help others. I discovered that pelvic floor health is transformative—it’s about more than just stopping leaks. It’s about feeling strong, confident, and in control of your body at every stage of life.

 

That same passion led me to deepen my understanding of menopause. I wanted to empower women to thrive during this phase of life, not just survive it. Too often, menopause is treated like a problem to endure, but I believe it’s an incredible opportunity to refocus on your health, embrace your power, and rediscover yourself.

 

My Philosophy

 

I practice what I preach. Everything I teach is rooted in my own experiences and evidence-based knowledge. I’ve seen firsthand how movement, nutrition, and a positive mindset can change lives, and I’m committed to sharing those tools with as many women as possible.

 

​

My Mission

 

I’m on a mission to help women reclaim their health, confidence, and joy during menopause.

Outside of Work

 

When I’m not teaching or coaching, you’ll find me outside. I love walking my dog by the river or exploring the countryside. Nature is my reset button—it keeps me grounded and reminds me to enjoy the simple pleasures in life.

 

I also love food—cooking it, eating it, and sharing it. Healthy eating doesn’t have to be boring, and I enjoy experimenting with recipes that are both nutritious and satisfying. Whether it’s a fresh salad, a hearty soup, or a homemade treat, food is one of my great joys.

​

I live with my wonderful Partner in Lewes in the UK and we are lucky enough to live part of the year on our sailing boat in the Med, where I run my classes from the deck.
