Beth’s focus on PD came through her Uncle Tom Isaacs, who founded Cure Parkinson’s. However her approach is very much her own, and her classes are a joy to do. Her unique caring personality is present throughout every session, and as we sat down to chat, her passion to provide the best chance for people to live their best life with neurodegenerative diseases is evident.
Beth’s first foray in to competitive sport was aged two in rowing! Her Masters in Sport and Exercise Psychology, from Loughborough University and eighteen months working in a clinic rehabilitating cancer patients she felt that
“Exercise is a medicine and if it were a pill, it would be prescribed to everyone”.
The Try-Athlon spirit is in real evidence as she tells us “the best type of exercise is the one you enjoy”, and her varied but targeted program is for those with PD and other neurodegenerative diseases like MS!
