ANICA DOWNING - INSTRUCTOR

I’m so excited to be joining the team at Torque and get teaching!   I am currently doing my last year of school at St Paul’s Collegiate before heading down South next year to study law.

 

Growing up on a farm I have always embraced a healthy lifestyle with a love for animals, the outdoors and a dedication to fitness.

 

My entry to fitness came through lifting weights at the gym before discovering Pilates, and I have not looked back since!  I completed my training in July 2024 and have been working on amazing plans for my classes at every opportunity!

 

I enjoy being able to challenge my body in new ways which weights cannot accomplish and every session I find new ways to push myself. I look forward to being able to share my love for working out with you and help achieve your goals.
