Ati Md Yusoff

Ati has always been active. Since young, she’s been doing track and field, played netball and loved Zumba. Although active, her weight has been up and down. After her third child, Ati tried to go back to her pre-pregnancy weight but found it difficult. Eventually, she started going to the gym but felt at a loss of where to start. 

This is when she started to learn more about weight training and high-intensity training. Soon, friends started to approach Ati requesting for her to train with them. As a result of the joy she received from training with her friends, she decided to attain her personal training certificate. 

Ati notices a lot of ladies have difficulty with low confidence and don’t dare to go to the gym alone. In this she found her passion; helping women to be more active and healthy and at the same time, building their confidence.

Sashini is an ISSA-certified personal trainer and has qualifications in pre- and postnatal and menopause GGS. She is experienced in strength training, yoga and zumba!

“I have always been very active and energetic. I love dancing, exercising and outdoor activities. I strongly believe due to the combination of exercises I did, such as yoga, pilates, strength training, swimming and walking, I had a relatively easy pregnancy. Postpartum, I had more difficulty losing my pregnancy weight, though. It took me one year to lose 15kg. This experience helped me to connect even better with fellow mamas, help them to have realistic healthy fitness goals and support them throughout their journey.”
