Running your fitness business from home

Running your fitness business from home

This is Claire and her business is Westside Workouts with Claire and she has a group of local clients that rely on her for our fitness. We went from the hall to the park, but as restrictions increased we had to stop. So we encouraged her to send us videos so that we could support her business and stay fit. Here is Claire in her backyard with her dog Belle and baby are close by. Soon we will be back in her classes again in person, but for now this is how we all do it.

At Women’s and Children’s Hospital Adelaide for a Covid 19 test, Mother's Day eve 2020

Our local GP would not see my child unless she was Covid 19 tested and shown to be negative. We couldn't celebrate Mother's Day until the result came in but we roasted a chicken anyway and once it came back negative her grandparents were able to come for dinner! A nervous day where the Covid threat became real for our family.
