M.O.V.E

Where it all began.

The evolution

Do you know what you need to do when it comes to your health and wellbeing, but you are just not doing it?
That question has been at the heart of my work as a health coach for over a decade. And it is what M.O.V.E was built to answer.
For four years I guided small groups of women through an intimate four month journey as their health coach and guide. We met three times a week. We moved together, learned together and went inward together. It was structured around the full dimensions of what it means to be human — the physical, the mental, the spiritual, the energetic.
Breathwork. Grounding. Movement. Learning about our minds and our emotions. Healthy tools and techniques that actually work when you actually use them.
The results were real. The connections were lasting. And what I witnessed in those women — the courage, the breakthroughs, the genuine change — taught me everything I needed to know as a health coach about what women actually need to feel well.

M.O.V.E showed me that the structure works. That when women have community, accountability and the right guidance, they change. Not after one week. After a season.

Oasis is the expansion of that.

Everything M.O.V.E stood for, taken deeper, made ongoing and opened up to more women. More women who know what they need to do. And need a space that holds them while they do it.
Week after week. Season after season. No matter where they are in their journey.

M.O.V.E has evolved into OASIS. An expansion of everything M.O.V.E stood for — taken deeper, made ongoing and opened up to more women.

Moments from past M.O.V.E journeys

What M.O.V.E was

M.O.V.E was a four month group health coaching program for women. Small groups. Deep work. Real transformation.

Inside M.O.V.E, women strengthened emotional regulation, built sustainable wellbeing habits, developed confident boundaries, improved their mental and physical health and reconnected with who they truly are.
The program combined:

* Group health coaching sessions
* Guided movement in nature
* Workshops and integration sessions
* Personal reflection tools
* 1-1 coaching support
* A small intimate community of women

Women left M.O.V.E feeling clearer, calmer, stronger, more self-assured and more energised.
Not temporarily motivated. Genuinely changed.

From the moment I first met Anna, I knew I was in the presence of someone truly extraordinary. Joining her M.O.V.E program has been nothing short of transformative. From the very first session, her... kindness, wisdom, and genuine care shone through.Anna has an incredible ability to make you feel completely seen, heard, and supported, even during the most challenging times. Working with her has helped me find clarity, confidence, and a sense of peace I didn't think was possible.Anna is more than a coach, she is a guiding light, a source of inspiration, and someone who genuinely changes lives. I am so grateful to have worked with her and highly recommend her to anyone seeking guidance and growth.read more

I have recently had the pleasure of undertaking the M.O.V.E program with Anna and cannot recommend it highly enough. Anna creates a space that is safe, educational, spiritual and life changing. 4... months of guided meditation, exploring parts and 1:1 coaching has made me a much better person both inside and out.

My M.O.V.E journey with Anna was incredibly rewarding on multiple levels. Before starting the program, I felt stuck in various aspects of my life and lacked clarity on how to process my emotions.... Through this experience, I gained a deeper understanding of emotional management, which has significantly improved my relationships with family and friends. Physically, I’ve become more active and have adopted healthier eating habits. I highly recommend it.read more

I have just finished the M.O.V.E. Programme with Anna and it has been amazing.From the very first call with Anna I have felt connected and heard.The programme has taught me so much about myself,... how I process emotions, boundaries and how to uphold them. I loved the nutrition module and have made changes to my daily routine that have stayed beyond the programme.Her informative and gentle approach to each module makes it easy to understand and simple techniques and actions to implement.I have loved being apart of the MOVE community and really enjoyed the weekly calls (walks in nature), a chance to learn but also connect with other fabulous women.The course has been so varied and covered many different aspects of emotional, mental and physical health. It has inspired me to learn more.Having been stuck in a negative cycle for nearly a decade Anna has finally helped me see myself beyond that which was holding me back. I feel like I can finally move forward.I cannot rate this course and her guidance highly enough. Do it! You’ll feel supported, held, heard and inspired.Thank you Anna for such a freeing experience. I am excited to see how the next chapter unfolds. I’m manifesting all the way!read more

I recently completed a life coaching program with Anna, and I can’t express how transformative the experience was. The service is exceptionally well-structured, featuring relatable advice and... practical tasks that genuinely facilitate personal growth.Anna is incredibly friendly, understanding, and patient. Her listening skills make every session feel safe and supportive. The course is filled with life-changing insights and actionable steps that guide you toward positive change.I particularly appreciated the helpful resources provided, especially the workbooks. They are exceptionally well-written and offer easy-to-follow practical steps with measurable goals. The Facebook group was a fantastic addition, allowing participants to connect, share experiences, and support each other through the highs and lows of the journey.The weekly sessions were a game changer, packed with vital information. The option to revisit recorded sessions ensured that I could reflect on what I learned. Anna’s love and care for her clients shine through in every interaction.The one-on-one sessions were invaluable, allowing me to focus on my personal goals and address more delicate matters with compassion and understanding.Thank you, Anna! I am truly grateful for your support and guidance. You made me feel comfortable throughout the course, and your unwavering patience will stay with me forever. I’m happy to say that you were a mentor and now a friend.I wish you all the best in your mission to help others become the best version of themselves.read more

I highly recommend you reach out to Anna; she is a brilliant life coach. She has developed her own resources based on well-researched theory that she not only believes in but also applies herself,... and it works. I was lucky enough to be a part of M.O.V.E. and met a wonderful group of supportive people during the process. When I met Anna, I came in broken, carrying too much, scared of vulnerability, and overwhelmed. During the process, Anna helped me heal. I felt a significant change in myself. I said sorry less. I put my needs first. I felt happiness, and I was present. My language also changed, and I have noticed it flowing down to my kids—who have noticed the shift in my energy. This has all come without giving my loved ones less; if anything, I can now give them more. I notice my needs too, and I create boundaries allowing me to continue to give. I am feeling fulfilled. Thanks, Annaread more

Anna is a powerhouse of knowledge and life experience, her passion and commitment to the M.O.V.E program is obvious in every single session and more. It was such an enjoyable experience and what I’ve... taken away from the program will stick with me well into the future. I’m so grateful for the experience and all the little changes I’ve made are benefiting not just myself but my family too. Thank you Anna, your support is so appreciated. To anyone feeling lost or stuck mentally, physically and emotionally, that first phone call with Anna is a must, she’ll guide you in the right direction. ❤️read more

MOVE is truly a life-changing experience. It did not solve all of my problems in four months; I am not a super model nor have I reached a higher astral plane, but what I have gained is worth so much... more. I now believe, with Anna’s help, I have built a toolkit to survive and thrive on the next part of my journey. Most of all, instead of becoming who I thought I wanted to be, I have been given the gifts of self appreciation and presence. I can now enjoy every second with my young son, instead of over analysing everything. I no longer feel like I am living in the future, in fear of my past and I am very sensitive to times when my behaviour does not align to my goals and values.read more

Anna is one of the most clever and compassionate people I have met.I'm a 64 yr old nurse.For the past 25 yrs I have been trying to find a way to address my life issues and move forward in a... meaningful way."VALUES" BLAH! BLAH! BLAH!...Always struggled with this. Now I know what mine are. I always had "kind of an idea" but now I really know and can illiterate them clearly.Anna delivers her coaching in various ways.The major one is walking in nature whist listening to and sharing infoThe latest cog health stuff I have accessed says moving/exercising whilst listening to educational materialis very powerful.Anna offers 1:1 counselling. I have done alot of this over my life but the sessions I had with Anna just made me feel so much better about me.Connecting with the gorgeous women of my M.O.V.E. experience was lovely.I can only say that if you need to MOVE on in your life...Anna will help you do It!!!Annaread more

Anna helped me fall back in love with life again, she inspired, motivated and pushed me out of my comfort zone when I felt like I was in a stagnant part of my life. She helped me discover what the... true meanings of emotions are and why they are there as well as grounding myself in times of stress. Through her I made connections with other women that I know will last a life time and it is so comforting to know that not only was she an amazing life coach, but an amazing friend whose connection I will treasure forever.read more

I completed the M.O.V.E course in December of 2023 after reaching out to Anna earlier in the year. My concern finding a coach was making sure I found one that I clicked with. After our first chat, I... just knew she was the right one.Where I started before M.OV.E: 😩- Mental health struggles- No love for self- No compassion for self (self critic)- Afraid to fail- Easily giving my power away- Beliefs of being a bad mum- Not keen to ask for help (like to do things on my own, rather than "put others out")- People pleaser- No understanding how to set boundaries let alone hold them- No goals and passion for anything- Loss of myself after traumatic event and after kids- I would suppress my emotions to not feel or show others "weakness"- Fear of vulnerability- Not strong enough- Focused on the past or futureIts safe to say with that list I needed help, reaching out to Anna was the biggest blessing I could've asked for.After M.O.V.E:😁- Starting to love myself again- To love waking up in the mornings- To be unapologetically me- Letting my walls down- Understanding of boundaries and how to set them- Define what I value and set goals that I'm excited to do- PRESENT, such a big one I learnt!- Learning about emotions, and allowing myself to feel.- My communication and overall aura was different to my family/friends and especially my kids.- Met some amazing M.O.V.E women which honestly shaped my journey. They were my rock without even knowing it.The list could go on for ages...Why Anna or why M.O.V.E?❓- She speaks from the heart not through a tick and flick of a book.- She relates, through her own experiences.- She is kind, compassionate and truly cares. Everything you would want in a coach and in a friend.- She has created a community of men/women that are vulnerable enough to tell their own story and empower each other. 💪- M.O.V.E will give you all the tools you need to make that change in your life that you want and deserve.My only advice for anyone ready to sign up... be FULLY immersed in what the program has for you. I promise you, you won't regret it. ❤️Thank you Anna, for everything. You have changed my life in so many ways. I have gained a life coach but also a life long friend. ❤️read more

Earlier this year I completed Anna’s MOVE program and my life is in a completely different place. I went from being debilitated by Long COVID symptoms and completely disheartened about how I can... accomplish everything I want out of life while being so restricted in my abilities. Not to mention how lost I felt about my career. Anna worked with me on long suppressed feelings from my childhood and even in that fist 1:1 I felt a shift in how I saw my future. Anna helped me separate myself from the symptoms I was experiencing so I can eventually let them go and not internalise them making the chronic condition permanent. The ladies in the MOVE program were also a great source of support for life’s ups and downs. We all cheered each other on and shared tips on how to achieve our common goals. Finally to topics discussed in MOVE were a great summary of how to lead a healthy life - both physically and mentally. While I have come across most of those topics before in my own journey to healing, going over them in a structured and intensive way was a great way to ‘reset’ my life course. By the end of the program I had achieved some huge life milestones including getting engaged to the man of my dreams and us buying our first family home together. I advocated myself with my doctors until they found a plan forward to manage my symptoms. Which allowed me to have more energy and accomplish career - related goal. A huge thanks to Anna for helping me through a difficult time. I’ll always be grateful.read more

Thankyou Anna! The last 4 months have been awesome! I have grown into a better version of myself thanks to your guidance and the support and openness of the other men in our MOVEM group! I... particularly enjoyed the relationship workshop, my partner and I took away so many positives from that. Our connection is deeper and stronger than ever.Thanks again to you Anna, and my fellow MOVEM men, I feel like I have gained 6 new brothers and a wonderful sister/friend/mentor/coach for life.read more

There are so many positive things I could say about Anna. She shows genuine care and interest and is one of the of the most authentic people I've ever met. Anna makes you feel comfortable to express... yourself and your feelings which, as a male, can be difficult and something I had difficulty doing in the past with therapists and other health professionals.I began individual coaching sessions with Anna in February 2023 as I was wanting more out of myself, my relationships and life in general. Despite me taking some time to open up and be vulnerable, Anna showed extreme patience during our sessions and always encouraged me that I was on the right path.I came to Anna having been on anti-depressants for nearly 10 years and she suggested that they may have been a blocker for my emotions and she was right. I successfully weaned off them over a period of a few months and was able to start to feel my emotions again and work through some deep seeded beliefs and issues.I was also fortunate to be a part of a men's only group which Anna ran over a period of 4 months. This program consisted of regular in person and zoom sessions with 6 other men where we were coached on feelings, relationships, values, mediation, fitness and nutrition and other important areas in our life.As a result of attending both individual coaching sessions and the men's coaching program I am more in touch with my feelings, have a better relationship with my wife, am more comfortable in my own skin, more confident, aware of what I value most in life, have formed healthier habits and overall am happier with life.Anna is a truly remarkable coach and always shows up for you and validates your feelings.I feel very privileged to have found Anna and will definitely utilise her in the future for further coaching.Thanks for an amazing experience.read more

Anna has a way of working with people that makes you feel instantly comfortable, seen and understood. Her approach to coaching is empathetic and non-judgmental, while (gently) calling you out on the... patterns and behaviour that are holding you back from your fullest potential.I participated in Anna’s last round of M.O.V.E, and saw positive changes in my life from the very first week. Anna helped me step into my true self, in a way years of therapy never has. She motivated me to put words into action, and is now a welcome voice in the back of my mind on a daily basis, pushing my to make choices based off my values, and to continue to learn more about myself.Anna has been a catalyst for so much growth in myself, and I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to work with her!read more

Strange start to my happiest experience. I observed Anna’s car (with her business details on it) and it was like a weird light bulb got turned on in my head. I felt compelled to go to her even though... id never heard of a life coach before.I called her and made an appointment and committed myself to two sessions. Was I sceptical, confused about my compulsion and dubious about the effectiveness of this course of action? - definitely.When I met Anna I found her be very intelligent, caring, inspiring with an uncanny ability to delve into my sub conscious. We conversed like we had known each other prior. She has a very easy going nature and is so easy to talk to.Whilst talking to me she extracted information from my past (that I had blacked out and wasn’t aware of) that was grossly affecting my current day behaviour/thinking/persona and everything in between.I’ve had multiple sessions with Anna now and I am clearly a far better person who is no longer affected by a lot of major crippling events in my past.I am a completely different person now (a change for the better I should add), I now know what affected me, how it affected me and how to interpret any other behaviour of mine (what’s the behaviour, how I feel, causation, analysis and how to move forward).To say Anna is my saviour is not an understatement. I recommend her services to everyone. She brought me from a troubled, mentally confused/affected individual who was not operating on all cylinders to a happy, pleasant man who is now a much better person and I love love love life in general. This result is good for me and those I interact with.So I say to you, if you need a life coach (remember, I didn’t know I needed one) you must/should give Anna a call and make an appointment or you’ll be doing your self a disservice.Alan Gosland.read more

I’ve been working with Anna for the past 3 months and I’m really enjoying the experience. I wasn’t sure what to expect with life coaching but Anna put me at ease instantly. I’ve tried a number of... different weight loss programs in the past but I’ve not been able to stick with them - self sabotage always sends me back to the start. Anna is helping understand why I do this and open up my thoughts to change 20years of destructive behaviour. It’s hard work at times but incredibly rewarding. Over the past few months the coaching (surprisingly) has improved my work and personal relationships. I’m still a work in progress but i know I’ll reach my goals with Anna’s support.read more

I first started seeing Anna for personal training as I wanted to improve my strength and fitness. From there I had some life coaching sessions which were incredible as Anna helped me get through some... anger issues I had been carrying. I also joined her M.O.V.E program which not only connected me with some wonderfully understanding ladies but it also helped me get in touch with my emotions and to be able to express them.

The four pillars of M.O.V.E

Movement

Movement has always been a fundamental part of my life. It allowed me to develop body awareness, maintain physical and mental health, connect with my heart and feel invigorated and alive. I experienced some of my most challenging moments while moving through my athletic career, and they helped me grow. My most creative moments arise when the energy of nature flows through me, regenerating, healing and inspiring me.

Movement improves organ function, boosts immunity, strengthens the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, increases bone density, tones and strengthens muscles and releases endorphins, providing energy and mental clarity. In the M.O.V.E sessions we got energy flowing, engaging all the senses while connecting with nature and each other.

Movement improves organ function, boosts immunity, strengthens the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, increases bone density, tones and strengthens muscles and releases endorphins providing energy and mental clarity. In the M.O.V.E sessions, we got energy flowing, engaging all the senses while connecting with nature and each other.

Outdoors

Nature has always drawn me in. I feel most at home, most connected and most free to when we are outdoors. Our current way of life has distanced us from nature keeping us indoors, depriving us of sunlight and fresh air. In M.O.V.E we returned to our roots, learned from and in nature, and healed through grounding, breathing, being present and engaging with all five senses.

Variety

Variety is the spice of life. It keeps us engaged, motivated and fosters genuine growth. Often we find ourselves trapped in monotonous routines feeling stagnant, unmotivated and uninspired. In M.O.V.E we infused variety into every session expanding awareness, igniting creativity and engaging the mind, body and spirit through a change of locations, a range of topics and mindfulness exercises.

Education

In the M.O.V.E sessions we embarked on what I call Education for Life exploring the Tree of Life together. Values, beliefs, nutrition, emotions, purpose, routines, rituals, boundaries, relationships and so much more. This comprehensive exploration equipped women with the insights and awareness to make choices that aligned with their values and reflected the person they were becoming.

Loving yourself, letting go and looking within. Learning the importance of emotions, how to release the energies they store in our bodies and how to remove the blocks from our past to allow energy to flow freely.

M.O.V.E has evolved into Oasis

Everything M.O.V.E stood for is alive inside Oasis, and it goes further. More depth. More consistency. More connection. An ongoing community for women who want to keep doing the real work, season after season. If you were part of M.O.V.E, thank you. You shaped what Oasis has become
