Angela has experienced a life of challenges, one in particular that now see’s her empowering hundreds of people around the globe to take control of their health, never give up and never let go of their dreams.
With too much to live for, Angela fought for a second chance, a chance that has now changed the lives of many. Her infectious personality is nothing but inspiring while she claims that fitness can be the anchor that grounds you despite all the surrounding noise. Not only will she deliver the physical benefits of health and fitness, she brings people together throughout her community to share a more creative and mindful reality.
- “Educating people on how to take control of their health via nutrition and exercise is critical.”
- “Encouraging people to love and accept their body while also being the very best they can be.”
As our world evolves, our lifestyles change and demand can take it’s toll. With a wealth of knowledge, Angela understands the importance of reduced stress, positivity, controlling anger, healing imbalances that cause disease and introducing qualities of calm, harmony, self-healing and meditation. Angela is creative in making an impact on community and driving individual’s goals towards healthier lifestyles.
ANGELA'S STORY
With a personal interest in weight training and keeping fit, Angela completed her Cert 4 in fitness allowing her to work as a personal trainer. She found that women were looking for “something”, they weren’t sure themselves of what it was that was missing.
“Women crave vitality, inner balance, emotional and physical strength. Pounding themselves at aerobics classes or weight training session’s simply wasn’t working for many”.
Angela also began to research other forms of gentle exercise discovering Qigong in many different forms and styles. It’s here she discovered the book “The Healing Art of Qigong” by Master Hong Liu. With all her wisdom and experience, Angela thought this was not what she was looking for or needed. Little did she know?
How She Survived
Her passion for fitness and a desire to understand the concept of total well being not only meant that Ange was able to gain complete control of her life, it meant that she survived against all odds.
On January 28th 2006, Angela Larose was diagnosed with cancer, the prognosis was devastating, not just for Angela, but for her entire family and closest friends. After numerous attempts at regaining composure, she set out on a journey, a journey which became so personal and full of choices, one choice in particular which was to fight for her life and believe in herself. She became emotionally strong throughout her mind and body and over time developed an incredible strength which not only surprised herself, but the medical team she had worked so hard and so closely with. Her focus was detailed yet simple, her recovery unexpected!
Her instincts had told Ange to take her health into my own hands, and at this point at the very beginning of her fight is where she turned to the book she had earlier discovered, the ‘Qigong’ book. She began practising ‘The Eight Golden Exercises’ also known as ‘Ba Duan Jin’, for thirty minutes, morning and night. Qigong instantly began to calm her mind, increased her Qi while giving her that strength her body needed throughout her journey of healing and transformation.
Now, a firm believer in the combination of Qigong, traditional Chinese medicine, good nutrition, meditation, exercise and a positive outlook, she knows it is these vital things in life along with one very talented surgeon which saved her life and now plays such a critical role in the lives of so many others.

Why Mat Pilates?
I have been a Pilates Instructor for the past 10 years. Completing my certificates for Mat I and Advanced Pilates with Studio Pilates. Since completing a Reformer Pilates Certification a few years ago.
Mat-based Pilates – this is a series of exercises performed on the floor using gravity and your own body weight to provide resistance. The main aim is to condition the deeper, supporting muscles of your body to improve posture, balance and coordination
The five basic principles developed by STOTT Pilates are breathing, pelvic placement, rib cage placement, scapular (shoulder blade) movement and stabilization and head and cervical (neck) placement.
Along with the seven principles of
- concentration. - centering. - breathing.- control.- precision.
- flowing movement. - isolation - routine.
Pilates is a safe and effective method of rehabilitation and exercise that focuses on muscular balance, improves strength and flexibility.
The health benefits of Pilates include:
- improved flexibility
- increased muscle strength and tone, particularly of your abdominal muscles, lower back, hips and buttocks (the ‘core muscles’ of your body)
- balanced muscular strength on both sides of your body
- enhanced muscular control of your back and limbs
- improved stabilisation of your spine
- improved posture
- rehabilitation or prevention of injuries related to muscle imbalances
- improved physical coordination and balance
- relaxation of your shoulders, neck and upper back
- safe rehabilitation of joint and spinal injuries
- prevention of musculoskeletal injuries
- increased lung capacity and circulation through deep breathing
- improved concentration
- increased body awareness
- stress management and relaxation.
Session Times
Pilates caters for everyone, from beginner to advanced. You can perform exercises using your own body weight, or with the help of various pieces of equipment.
A typical Pilates workout includes a number of exercises and stretches. Each exercise is performed with attention to correct breathing techniques and abdominal muscle control. To gain the maximum benefit, you should do Pilates at least two or three times per week. You may notice postural improvements after 10 to 20 sessions.
Pilates is best achieved by attending consecutive sessions.
In 10 sessions you'll feel the difference, in 20 you'll see the difference,
and in 30 you'll have a new body.
