About Grainne
I have over 20 years’ experience as a Health and Physical Education and Dance Teacher and more recently, within the Fitness and Wellness industry. I have taught full-time in Queensland since graduating QUT in 1990 and was fortunate to teach in Dublin, Ireland for the duration of 1995.
During my teaching career, I was a member of the Queensland Board of Secondary School Studies, which included writing junior and senior work programs, monitoring teacher and student standards across year 11 and validating consistency across year 12 indicators and outcomes.
I have also written and successfully taught a Dance Program to students at our local Catholic Primary school. This program was written based on the NSW Creative Arts Syllabus, adhering to its requirements and learning outcomes. I was co Choreographer for two state winning Rock Eisteddfods, as well as choreographer for a number of school musicals, festivals, Eisteddfods and community events.
Since moving to NSW in 2008, I was fortunate to raise our 2 children full time until December 2011. Since then, I have upgraded my skill set and opened my own fitness business, contracting to local schools and various local businesses teaching mostly Dance/Zumba, as well as being an employee of the Wests Balance Fitness Chain. I have also completed numerous accreditations, training and certificate courses with the most notable being recognized as one of only 3 Internationally Accredited Cancer Exercise Specialists in the country.
Currently, I teach groups of adults in rehabilitative aqua classes, Zumba fitness classes and Pilates classes. I am an NDIS Provider and teach 3 groups of adults with additional needs by contracting to community service groups including Lifestyles Solutions and Disability Services Australia, as well as running my own classes for children with additional needs/learning and/or physical disabilities.

I am a passionate, dedicated and enthusiastic leader, teacher and learner. I strive to help students attain a firm belief in themselves and their abilities. My belief is that each individual is unique and deserves a respectful, safe learning environment that facilitates social, intellectual and emotional growth. My point of difference is my warm, effervescent nature and my commitment to my students and clients. I have personally overcome a serious health condition which affords me greater empathy towards those who are battling disease, illness or injury. I pride myself on my adaptability, my relationship building skills, organizational and conflict resolution skills.
All of my classes include warm-ups, skill acquisition and cool-downs. Music is a very important part of my teaching as it helps motivate my clients and adds a sense of fun and enjoyment to each lesson. For me, the most important part of what I do is how my clients feel when they leave my classes. I want them to feel empowered, inspired and to know they are loved and appreciated and am dedicated to fostering self-esteem and a positive body image, especially in children and adolescents.

Her strength, knowledge and humour is shared effortlessly with you. If you feel like giving up or can't get motivated......Grainne will never give up on you. People of all ages have benefited by her training her words her enthusiasm and her love of life.
Grainne is awsome. She gave my daughter a great start in achieving her current career path
Grainne is an exceptionally gifted teacher. I was fortunate enough to be Grainne’s Head of Department for many years. She inspires every soul she touches with her light, and ignites her students’ inner core, leading all to become the best version of themselves that they can be. I can attest to her passion, commitment, tenacity, humanity, caring and commitment as I have seen her change the lives of many. It is impossible to exaggerate the natural and precisely-developed teaching talents of Grainne. Natural gifts polished by experience. She is a rare, one-of-a-kind teacher; an asset and a treasure for all future employers, colleagues and students. Andrew Reid.
I met Grainne when she generously absorbed another zumba instructors classes outside her immediate area to stop the classes folding. It's never easy to step into someone shoes and win over their class but Grainne did it in a seemless, dignified manner showing enthusiasm and empathy. Grainne was prepared to go out of her way to assist where possible and over the years it has been a joy to see her grow and expand her portfolio of qualifications. Her welcoming smile breaks the ice for those knew to her classes. Grainne will be a loss to this community and an asset to her new environment. I am more sorry than I can say to know she is leaving us. Sincerely, Lesley Jordan
I consider the days I have Pilates class to be my favourite days of the week. Grainne is an excellent teacher, her classes are instructive at the same time as being full of fun as well as educational. I never cease to leave a class of hers without learning something new, not only from her teaching style but the manner in which she enables me to learn about myself. Grainne is a very special person and those who know her understand how lucky they are to have crossed paths with her.
Grainne has a wonderful reputation as a teacher in our community. Everyone sings her praises, especially me, very loudly! She has charisma, personality and verve, which is so essential for a dance teacher. She is such a delight to watch! On a personal note, Grainne is conscientious and caring, professional in her manner, always punctual and well-groomed. We are certainly going to miss this beautiful soul, who has enriched our lives.
I have known Grainne for the past 4 years. She is an amazing woman who has always shown me respect and kindness and I couldn’t recommend anyone more highly.
I had the privilege of working with Grainne for 10 years. Grainne was a dedicated performing arts teacher who went the extra mile for her students and the school community. Her dedication included giving up lunch hours, afternoons, weekends and school holidays to assist students who wished to enter competitions or perform in school concerts. Grainne has a rapport with students and earned their trust so that they could discuss problems without fear of condemnation. This empathy extended to her fellow workers where confidentiality was assured. When Grainne commences a new position, she gives one hundred and ten percent until she leaves and I have no hesitation in recommending her for any position she chooses as I know the employer will only benefit from her enthusiasm and professionalism.
Grainne has an incredible personality, is highly professional and knowledgeable. She is absolutely the best!

I have known Gráinne for at least the past 6 years and worked along side of her for a good part of that time. Gráinne is the quintessential professional, pushing herself to give participants the whole experience down to the very fine details. She is thoughtful, thorough, with an attention to detail that is to be admired. But more than any of that she is an exceptional human being with an amazing outlook on life. I wish her all the very best in future endeavours. I am deeply sad that we are losing her to our community but would like to recommend her services to anyone that needs assurance of Gráinne's work. Just be careful, her presence is addictive.
Grainne has so much love in her heart and she is amazing at everything she does .
Grainne Myles is one of the most inspirational ladies I have ever met. Against all odds, she made a positive out of a negative and built a wonderful business from her own experiences to help others. I have used her knowledge on numerous occasions to pass on positivity to others. Grainne is one hell of a lady, and anyone who meets her would benefit from her friendship, we will miss her.

0423386156Grainne’s empathy and ability to feel what it’s like to walk in someone else’s shoes drives her compassion and ultimately her desire to do good by other people. From this place she is absolutely one of the most trustworthy people I know. I have been able to personally depend on her numerous times and she has always been there
Her ability to connect to others and understand their needs, then access a vast amount of knowledge in her chosen area of expertise gives her the ability to inspire success in others.
Always been trustworthy and upstanding female in any community lucky enough to have her!
Would be a complete asset to any business or person!You won't find anyone more committed, caring & compassionate than Gràinne. She's gifted with a natural intuition which helps her to know exactly what each individual needs.
A rare gem.I have known Grainne Myles for 20 years. I first meet Grainne during my last year of studying at Queensland university of technology. I was posted to the local high school where she worked and was placed under her professional care for my final prac. During this time she allowed me to explore my craft and also shared and showed me valuable skills and techniques which have served me well in my own career as a facilitator of dance and drama in the Queensland education system, in both primary and secondary. I value her professional opinion and still seek and draw on her advice 20 years on.
Grainne is wholistic in her practice. She invests in the people’s wellbeing first and foremost. Content is a given, she thoroughly plans and delivers with aptitude and confidence. Grainne is successful in working independently and interdependantly.
Over the years I have know Grainne she has grown professionally and personally. Through the milestones of life, marriage children, moving from state to state, changing career paths, her diagnoses of breast cancer and beating it. She has always remained positive, her determination and resilience is phenomenal.
Grainne has been successful in all areas of life. I believe this success comes from both her positivity and empathy. She is a outstanding communicator.
The question shouldn’t be would be “Why do I recommend this person to the other Superprof members”. The answer is simply “why not?”
Trust me, you don’t want to miss out on the energy and expertise of this amazing, talented women-Grainne!
I have known Grainne for years, she is a geniune caring person who is very well trained and knows what does and doesn't work.
She is very helpful and will go to great lengths to make sure you are getting what you need.View more recommendations
