Dee SimpsonFitness Specialist

    biography

    As a zealous, life-long adventure traveler and volunteer – with overriding passions for helping others and anything active in the great outdoors – Dee leapt into her fourth career, as a fitness professional, at a time when most are slowing down! For the decades previously, she ran two very successful film-production companies, was an award-winning documentary film maker, a university lecturer and a medical illustrator in South Africa, France, Canada and her native Britain.
    Continually ‘Walking the Walk’, Dee had the audacity to run her first marathon at 61 years young – winning in her age group and qualifying for Boston. This instigated a commitment to use her age, enthusiasm and boundless energy to train, motivate and inspire others to succeed – often far beyond their goals. So who says you can’t teach an old dog new tricks!?
