Inspiring an active lifestyle through adventures in the Scottish outdoors
A philosophy founded on shared fun and adventure
We started Beyond Fitness to share our love of the outdoors and to encourage others to get active in their local hills, forests and beaches and discover the benefits for themselves. Staying healthy doesn’t have to be a chore so come and explore the stunning Scottish countryside and kick start a more active lifestyle.
We offer a range of adventures from fitness retreats in the Trossachs National Park, guided cycling tours on the best roads Scotland has to offer and regular beach fitness classes and personal training in East Lothian.
Meet the team
Kim
Kim was involved in sports from a young age and started skiing on holidays at the age of 5. After finishing her first season training as a ski instructor, she decided to make a career of it and is now based in Verbier, Switzerland during the winters.
During rehabilitation of a serious knee injury in 2016, Kim developed an interest in injury prevention and fitness, which led to her qualifying as a sports massage therapist and personal trainer.
Alongside skiing, Kim enjoys surfing and climbing, and you will find her running the fitness sessions at our retreats.
Alex
Alex grew up in Scotland where as a child he would regularly spend his weekends hill walking with his family. This sparked an interest in climbing which led to him spending some time in the Alps as a late teenager, before successfully summiting Mont Blanc aged 18.
This passion for the mountains has led Alex to live and work in the Swiss Alps as a fully qualified ski instructor in the Winters.
Alex is a qualified Mountain Leader, with ample knowledge and experience of the Scottish highlands and will be heading up the outdoor excursions at our escapes in the summers.
