Online Personal Trainer since 2008 

Hi, I’m Hilde — founder of Get Active Online and your Online Personal Trainer. 

In 2008, Get Active Online was born from a passion to help others feel as amazing as I discovered I could through health and fitness. Back then, no one really knew what online personal training was — Instagram wasn’t even a thing, and Michelle Bridges hadn’t hit the scene. But I believed in the power of personalised online coaching, and soon, word spread. Clients achieved incredible results, we were featured in national magazines, and I became a regular contributor for Oxygen Magazine.

 

Before I was a fitness coach, my life was very different. In my 20s, I was a pack-a-day smoker, could outdrink most blokes, and struggled with depression. It all changed when I decided to try a 12-week fitness program. I started just to lose a few kilos, but what I gained was a belief in myself and a new way of living that made me feel unstoppable. Fitness became my new drug of choice, and I was hooked on sharing that energy with others. That’s how Get Active Online began.

Over the years, Get Active grew. In 2014, I opened my first Bootcamp and Personal Training Studio in Cairns — a massive success with more clients-turned-family than I ever imagined. In 2017, we expanded again, bringing personal training to older adults with a focus on strength, form, and living vibrantly as we age.

Then life threw me another challenge. In 2021, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Suddenly, everything that wasn’t important fell away. My battle with cancer brought clarity — health and happiness are everything. It also thrust me into full on menopausal symptoms, a whole new set of challenges. I wasn’t ready to accept feeling tired, moody, and battling weight gain. Determined as ever, I researched everything I could to thrive, not just survive.

This experience led me to create The Menopause Diet and Midlife Makeover — programs designed to help women feel incredible at every stage of life. I’m passionate about helping others prioritise self-care, manage stress, and build balanced lifestyles.

The truth is, my strength has come from the amazing community we’ve built — 16 years of loyal clients, many of whom feel more like family. If you’re ready to take charge of your health, I’d love you to join us. Life’s too short to wait. Let’s get started today — and feel amazing together!
