ABOUT
Hello and welcome!

I'm Vanessa La Mothe, an experienced EQF Level 4 fitness instructor based in Stockholm Sweden. I speak fluent Swedish and English, which promotes an inclusive and effective training environment. I am specialised in Group Workouts (specifically aquafitness) which I have worked with professionally since 2010. Training and discipline has been incorporated into my life since I was young, as I had the honour of taking fencing lessons from the Hungarian Béla Rerrich.

I have a formal background education in dancing, now I am also a licensed International Personal Trainer. Since 2010 I have been employed at Vattenhuset in Stockholm, where I teach classes in aquafitness and baby swimming on a weekly basis.

Along side my employment I am excited to venture into the world of freelancing as well, especially during the summer months which brings opportunities to travel and share my expertise.

I'm adept at leading large group classes, but I can also provide more targeted training if you or your team have more specific goals set for yourselves. Whether you're a corporation seeking to give your guests a high quality fitness experience, a sports team aiming for a competitive advantage or an office team, looking to boost your communication and wellbeing or perhaps just YOU alone seeking to level up, my ambition is to facilitate your journey towards your unique objective.

As a leader I am patient, with a stamina that can help assist and drive you through any moments of weakness.


Benefits of Aquafitness

There are multiple reasons to choose exercising in the water. It is beneficial for everyone. Let's not forget how pleasurable it can be moving to the music and experiencing the dynamics of weightlessness along with the resistance of the water. Nobody is excluded as I have additional experience working with pregnant women in the pool and people with disabilities. In addition to leading aquafitness classes on a weekly basis, I have previously collaborated with the Swedish actors: Babygruppen " The Baby Group" where I led water gymnastics for pregnant women, Neuroförbundet (former NHR) and the Swedish National Association for Social and Mental Health (RSMH), where I also led groups in the water. I am currently collaborating with a Swedish organisation known as "Personskadeförbundet RTP" where I provide aqua-classes with the purpose of promoting rehabiltation and mobility.

Benefits of Outdoor training

Training outdoors opens up a variety of possibilities. For example we can train in different terrain. Another benefit of training outdoors is that we have unlimited space to move freely. (More information coming soon)

I've always been drawn to music,

It brings people together.

It gets people moving.

Music is able to communicate beyond words and languages.

As an advocate in the field of wellness, the aspect of mental health should not be ignored. There are so many elements to this and even though I remain professional I want you to know that I care.
