Depending on your budget I can offer a range of packages or a one-off consultation to help you start to take steps towards achieving your sporting goals. Consultations can be carried out in person or via Skype or FaceTime.

As required I can carry out food diary analysis, provide education and tools to help you make changes towards your goals and provide resources such as shopping lists, meal plans and menu plans.

Testimonials

William Sichel - World Champion Ultra Runner

"[Rebecca] has produced successful nutrition plans for some of my races in extreme environments as well as for more routine road races. She actually listens to her clients and then produces intelligent, practical and individualised advice that can be used in the field."

Harsharn Gill - Ultra Runner

"I sought [Rebecca's] expert advice, and worked closely with her to formulate a new strategy to meet my nutritional requirements. It was an overriding success, and I haven't looked back since... I would wholeheartedly recommend her services."

Dre Israel – Backcountry Snowboarder / Owner at Fresh Tracks Verbier

“Rebecca has helped me way beyond expectation. She has put in an enormous amount of time to help me achieve my goals and has clearly shown me not only her expertise in the industry but also how passionate she is about it. I am now fitter than I’ve ever been, eating healthily, and able to spend more time on the mountain doing what I love doing without exhaustion.”
