Welcome to Anchorage Health & Wellness Studio

A space for real people navigating real change— calm, steady, and supported.

You’re navigating big changes—maybe you’ve just had a baby, you’re moving through perimenopause, or you’re simply done putting yourself last. You want to feel better in your body, but the usual gyms, diets, and online programs haven’t quite hit the mark. They feel impersonal, overwhelming, or just not made for you.

I see you—and you’re in the right place.

I’m Dani.

Mum of three. Navy veteran. Personal Trainer. Sports Nutritionist.

Based in Little Bay, NSW, I support people through some of life’s most transformative stages—from pregnancy and early motherhood to postnatal recovery, over-55s health, and everything in between.

Before this chapter, I was in the Royal Australian Navy, thriving in a high-performance, high-pressure world. But after becoming a mum, everything shifted—my body, my identity, and what I needed from movement. I couldn’t find a space that got me. So I created one.

Anchorage Health & Wellness Studio was born from the belief that wellness should meet you where you’re at—not where someone else thinks you should be.

Who I’ve worked with

I run my studio where clients feel acknowledged, supported, and empowered—whether they’re returning to exercise, starting fresh, or simply wanting to feel good again.

  • Elite female athletes

  • Older adults referred by their GP to rebuild strength from the ground up

  • Men and women are rebuilding confidence and learning to listen to their bodies

  • New parents in some of Sydney’s most renowned mums & bubs classes

A Few Fun Facts About Me

  • I’ve played rugby union at a national and international level

  • I’m a mum of three—so if I can squeeze in a workout between nappies, snacks, and daycare runs, I’ll make sure you can too!

  • I’ve mentored young women one-on-one to support successful Naval careers

  • I believe in strong coffee before sunrise, progress over perfection, and I’m all about real talk, real results, real support

Why I Created Anchorage

I created Anchorage Health & Wellness Studio because I knew I wasn’t the only one craving real support—without the intimidation, the pressure, or the BS.

Anchorage isn’t just a name.

Just like a ship finds safety in anchorage during rough seas, our studio is your place to pause, rebuild, and regain strength, calm, steady, and supported.

We’re here to ground you through life’s changing tides —whether you’re healing, growing, or simply trying to find your way back to yourself.

Today, I help clients reconnect with their body and confidence through tailored personal training, nutrition guidance, and a genuinely supportive approach to wellness.

Whether you’re a new mum, well over 60, or somewhere in between, I’m here to guide you safely, sustainably, and with compassion
