Hello!

Thank you for visiting Active Women Australia. I created this website becasue I was a little weary of the women's fitness and health magazines available. Certainly there are a couple of great sport specific mags available, but I was a bit over reading articles about how I could lose five kilos in five days or eat tomatoes six times a day and reduce my cellulite (ok, I just made that one up, but you get the idea!).  I wanted to read REAL stories about REAL women doing REAL activities. I wanted REAL tips and I wanted to know more about activities that didn't involve doing squats at the gym. I couldn't find it so I decided to create it!

My name is Dianna. I live in Toowong, Queensland, Australia. I don't have any pets but I have 3 bicycles (a Merida road bike (full Ultegra SL), a Merida Dual Suspension mountain bike and a bright pink Fuji Absolute 3.0 flat bar road bike). I also enjoy running and the occasional triathlon. I currently coach water polo and also have a cycling coach qualification. 

My hope is that this website inspires and empowers women to lead an active and healthy lifestyle.

Disclaimer
I don’t claim to be an expert nor do I practice everything I preach (for example, really enjoy wine and cheese in quantities that would not be considered "in moderation"). Sometimes the articles are just my humble opinion on a matter. I am in no way qualified to be giving medical advice nor am I a qualified health professional.  Take it for what it is. Many of the articles are contributed by professionals, but even in those cases, only the authour can attest to the accuracy of their advice.
