TARAFIT · STORY
I am a licensed personal trainer and certified nutrition consultant under the Slovenian Fitness Association.
My story? It began long before my career in fitness.
At the age of 12, I became seriously ill with anorexia nervosa and was hospitalized twice. Through treatment and working on myself, I felt a strong calling to help other girls so they would not have to go through the same experience.
At 15, I therefore began studying the human body and nutrition more intensively and started working at my first gym. I first worked as a group fitness instructor, helped people with training on the public gym floor and also worked at reception. During this period I earned my first group-fitness instructor licence.
Later, I continued building on those foundations and earned Les Mills titles as an Advanced GRIT Instructor, Elite Body Pump Instructor and Elite CORE Instructor.
Elite titles are rare and difficult to achieve, as they combine training expertise and presentation skills, placing you among TOP international instructors and enabling mentorship.
At 17, while still in high school, I also obtained my personal trainer license from FZS. Later I additionally got certified as a nutrition consultant.
I believe that continuous education is ESSENTIAL for quality work in the fitness industry, which is constantly evolving.
This year, as a trainer with 14 years of experience at 29 years old, I am additionally studying kinesiology for trainers.
