Our team

have been working in the field of exercise and health for the past 10 years. I hold qualifications in Advanced Personal Training, Therapeutic Exercise, Strength Training, and Club Management. I am also an entrepreneur dedicated to health, exercise, and community development.

I founded Arche Lifestyle Studio, a boutique wellness studio in Setúbal focused on Personal Training, Pilates, Physiotherapy, and Integrative Health, with the mission of helping people live with less pain, greater independence, and a better quality of life. Throughout more than a decade of experience, I have specialised in using exercise as a tool for prevention, rehabilitation, and longevity, believing that close guidance, supported by science and delivered with empathy, is what truly creates lasting change.

I am also the founder of Setúbal Running Club, one of the largest running communities on the south side of Portugal. It was created with the mission of bringing people together through movement. More than simply organising runs, I believe in creating experiences, meaningful relationships, and lifelong habits that positively transform people's lives.

Alongside this, I created The Collective Pace, an outdoor training concept inspired by functional fitness and HYROX, where physical challenge is combined with teamwork and a strong sense of community.

I believe that leading a team means creating opportunities for others to grow. My work is about building sustainable projects, developing strong teams, and nurturing communities where people feel motivated to take better care of their health, discover and develop their potential, and challenge themselves to improve every day. Movement is simply the starting point; the real goal is to improve people's quality of life.

I am someone driven by purpose. I want my work to have a meaningful impact on people's lives, and I strive to give my best to every project, every team, and every person I have the privilege of working with. I am naturally curious and constantly looking to learn. I question, observe, experiment, and believe that growth happens when we never stop seeking to improve.

I deeply value human relationships. I believe empathy, trust, and authenticity are the foundation of every meaningful connection. I enjoy listening, understanding different perspectives, and creating environments where people feel welcomed, included, and valued.

I also love bringing communities together, creating opportunities for people to connect, and seeing new friendships, projects, and stories emerge—connections that may never have happened without that first step.
