‼️NEW COACH‼️
Name: Seraphine Churchward-Isaaka
Ethnicity: Samoan
⭕️What is one thing you love about exercise/training?
The checkout! Lets me escape the world for a bit and literally spend the time focusing on breathing and moving!
⭕️ What do you enjoy about coaching?
PEOPLE! if you know me I’m all about the people! Love seeing people in their element achieving 1% daily. The celebration of difference too, everyone moves different, has different goals whether it be physical or mental and just seeing them shift in whatever journey they set out is a great thing to witness.
⭕️Outside of training and coaching, what is one thing you enjoy doing?
Video calling and annoying my sons who left me and their dad to tackle kangaroo land lol also I love eating and now with an empty nest me and hubby are able to hold out on some good food joints lol
⭕️What does service mean to you?
I love this samoan proverb - “O le ala i le p**e o le tautua” which means the pathway to leadership is through service.
Leadership is service, not a position. We all have the ability to lead but it’s starts with serving our people, whether it be an encouraging word, a physical gesture or just backing them in a path of growth. Service is the inclusiveness of community and giving time and energy into all channels of life.
Also I have posted photos of my mum and late dad who I have been the rock of my value system. Being able to serve them in my life has been such a privilege.
⭕️What’s a full circle moment you’ve experienced?
Full circle moment for me is being able to coach back in a space where some of my fit aiga base their roots! Everything I’ve learnt is from the amazing coaches I have been so grateful to learn from, from the different gym communities I’ve put myself in. So now being able to put some lessons I have learnt in practice if full circle moment for me.
⭕️Favourite lift/movement or exercise?
Love a good sn**ch and clean and jerk 😉
