Metabolic Health for Women
ONLINE WORKSHOP BY KIRA SUTHERLAND & LARA BRIDEN
WORKSHOP STARTS 8 AM, SEPTEMBER 29TH
The knowledge shared in this workshop is primarily designed for health and wellness practitioners and students, however, we believe it also highly useful information for any woman who wants to better understand her body, hormones, and her health; so we welcome anyone who wishes to enrol including general public, personal trainers, athletes, fitness enthusiasts and health coaches.
“I am 100% happy that I attended. I felt really motivated and stimulated, for me as much as my clients. The research was translated into do-able actions. Thanks so very much for excellent information presented beautifully.”
Jane Hutchens
Naturopath, Lecturer, Writer
“Thank you! I found the course structure and materials very useful. There were clear slides on everything but I especially found the slides on weight loss, circadian rhythms & nervous system particularly valuable.”
Lindsey
Nutritional Therapist
“I found the deep dive into the finer details of perimenopause/menopause very valuable. I also appreciated the little tips and tricks to take into clinic.”
Jacqui Cooper
Dr Chinese Medicine & Acupuncture
“This training really refined the thoughts I already had in regards to insulin sensitivity in the over 40 population and I'm more confident to try out some fasting options both personally and professionally.”

KIRA SUTHERLAND
Sports Nutritionist, Naturopath, Lecturer
Kira Sutherland is a Naturopathic Sports Nutritionist to some of the world's best athletes. She also lectures and mentors upcoming practitioners in the field of sports nutrition, and offers online courses for supporting athletes, trainers and sports enthusiasts how to nourish the body to achieve peak performance and fitness.
Using her 25+ years of clinical experience she has combined her knowledge of Naturopathic medicine with education in sports nutrition to create a truly wholistic approach to optimising performance for athletes and those striving for optimum health - especially women. Having lectured both within Australia and internationally on all things Naturopathic and sports nutrition, she is passionate about teaching people to take care of their bodies for the long term, not just treating them in the present moment. Kira believes that the role of a practitioner is to empower and teach clients to take care of themselves, to give them as much knowledge as possible.
“You offer such a depth of research based knowledge together with interesting cultural and social perspectives in your course. The information shared has given me greater confidence with treatment recommendations, was helpful for my own health and sports training, and reinforced knowledge I have in the cycle coach area of my work and helpful information for the menstrual education sessions I offer.”
Sharon Woolley
RN/IVF nurse. Naturopath. Certified Cycle Coach.
“The whole webinar was a great dive into honouring female physiology and how we can best educate/help our clients to harness their best out of their bodies. As we were going through the material I was thinking about certain clients and how I could apply what I was learning to each of them. You two are a power-couple of knowledge and each of your passions for women's health compliment each other so well. 10/10!”
