FERNWOOD Fitness believes in a balanced lifestyle that includes an abundance of nourishment, exercise, wellness, good friends, and self-love. <\/p>\n
Established by Diana Williams in 1989, Fernwood was born from her interest in weight training and the physiological and metabolic impact it can have on the female body.<\/p>\n
Lee Squire, owner of Fernwood Ballarat, is one such woman that has gone from strength to strength since joining the national network in 2000 as a group fitness instructor. <\/p>\n
\u201cFernwood Ballarat opened its doors three decades ago in May 1994 and we can\u2019t wait to celebrate our 30th birthday in May this year,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cDriven by being accessible to any woman, Fernwood aims to empower women to shine in every way.\u201d<\/p>\n
2024 will also see Lee celebrating her 21st year as the owner of Fernwood Ballarat it all began by her lifetime love for dance ad movement. <\/p>\n
With more than 43 years of extensive fitness industry experience and 18 years in the corporate world purchasing Fernwood Ballart felt like a natural progression to become the new owners of Fernwood Ballarat on the 17 October 2003.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat a journey it has been since 2003! So many moments and memories!\u201d Lee said.<\/p>\n
