About this episode

NEW PODCAST EPISODE! On The Sofa with British Mums - Episode 12 with Janine Roach from Grit DXB!

 For this episode, Emma & Sophie from British Mums are joined by the very inspirational Janine from Grit DXB!

 Janine shares her fitness journey with us, how she set up Grit DXB, her aspirations and how she’s trying to help people with their fitness journey – no matter their goals. We loved how passionate Janine is about creating healthy habits for your future rather than a focus on aesthetics.

If you’re looking to try out a new fitness class, get yourself down to one of Janine’s amazing classes (the first one is free) – you might even see our Soph in there, as she’s been doing Grit for 5 years!

We hope you love this podcast as much as we do; email us your thoughts and ideas at podcast@britishmums.com.  

Follow Grit DXB on Instagram and DM to sign up for your first free class: https://www.instagram.com/gritdxb/.
