Our Story
Discover the story of Shine Studios from how it all began to where we are today.
Meet Jacqui Chudleigh
Founder of Shine Studios
I was maybe just like you so I completely understand how you’re feeling right now.
I was never into fitness and wellbeing. In fact, I used to joke that if I could lie on one of those toning tables that lift your legs up and down, that would do me! I tried it all.
Every latest craze.
Every latest diet....
... I tried everything.
Some things worked for a while, but then I got tired and low on energy, and all the weight piled on again, plus a bit more.
I was stressed, tired, anxious, and without releasing it, was peri-menopausal. Then I had an alarming medical diagnosis.
After a year of treatment, I started getting myself together.
When I say, a year of treatment, that didn’t just involve medical treatment. It was the ‘treatment’ I gave to myself.
It was a complete change in mindset, that has been lasting and complete. I spent the year, in between hospital visits, reading, researching and taking courses. Not in the ‘condition’ but in mindset.
It is these mindset techniques that I now bring to my clients.
As a result, I then started enjoying fitness, for probably the first time in my life. I lifted weights, I cycled, I ran.
I did it all.
And I enjoyed it.
Losing weight was just a by-product of feeling so amazing!
I never weigh myself, and actually do not possess any scales at home. I used to jump on them every morning, which added to my negative mindset.
Not any more!
Leaping forward many years, I became a Personal Trainer and Nutrition Coach and a specialist in Peri/Menopause/Post Menopause Fitness, and Pelvic Health.
And more recently I have expanded the team at Shine Studios to include male and female health & fitness coaches offering a wealth of experience and a passion for offering lifestyle transformations for 40+ men, women and also couples who want to work together with accountability to make healthier choices in their lives.
“I can understand where you might be right now, because I was there myself. I know how you might be feeling about the whole ‘exercise thing!”

“For far longer than I care to admit, I’d been sick and tired of feeling tired…We are talking years, not just a few months or weeks! My get up and go had got up and gone…a very long time ago. Fortunately I made a decision to contact Jacqui.
After just a few weeks, I can honestly say that I am totally transformed. Mind, body and soul….I feel good. I have energy all day long, every day. I no longer feel tired. I drink more water. I breathe properly. I eat more healthily. I look forward to exercising, I sleep better, I am much stronger and I feel rejuvenated. Contacting Jacqui was the catalyst for me to make all the changes I needed to make. I am so grateful to have found my mojo again.”
