Charlene Casey Wellness (online)
The Monaghan LEO “Leading Light” for this year’s event is Charlene Casey, Founder and CEO at Charlene Casey Wellness, Castleblayney.
Charlene began her fitness career in 2006. While studying for her degree in the University of Ulster, Belfast, Charlene spent her evenings and weekends pursuing her passion for fitness through trainings and workshops. What Charlene believed to be her pastime, evolved into her true calling and a most successful, rewarding career.
In 2010, Charlene opened her first fitness studio in her hometown, Castleblayney, County Monaghan offering Spinning, Circuit training, Cardio box, Zumba and Rebounding. After reoccurring injuries, stiffness and repetitive strain, Charlene turned to Yoga & Pilates to help undo the effects of many years of excessive exercise and back to back classes. Charlene discovered that these methods would help improve and maintain fitness while supporting her long term physical health.
Now a fully qualified Pilates & Yoga teacher, Charlene is passionate about correct alignment and technique by maximizing every exercise with proper muscle activation and engagement. Her skilled approach encompasses strength, flexibility & mobility.
When Covid 19 hit face-to-face classes were no longer possible. Charlene had to pivot her business quickly and showed great resilience during a difficult time in business. She has taken steps to drive the business forward and became more adaptable, innovative and successful. Charlene transformed the delivery of her courses and classes to an online platform with the help of the Monaghan Local Enterprise Office using the Trading Online Voucher and now offers a range of programmes to a significantly increased catchment area. She has members from all corners of Ireland and even in the USA!
