Hi, I’m Lilian! I’m a health advisor and my mission is to help people maintain/improve their health through natural nutrition and exercise.
I’m a mom of a young toddler and together with him, my partner and cat, I live in the hills of Luxembourg since almost ten years.
I studied biotechnology, because I’ve always had a great interest in natural sciences and the human body. Life can take funny turns as I ended up working in the financial sector for 8 years. After these years I’ve become certain that corporate life is not the life for me. So I’ve returned to my initial interest and current activities: sports & nutrition.
I help with your individual request for nutritional advice and have much experience in vegetarian and natural/organic nutrition. I have the following degrees:
- Natural/organic Nutrition Advisor with Sonnevelt Opleidingen
- Macronutrients & Overnutrition with Wageningen University
- Micronutrients & Malnutrition with Wageningen University
- Nutrition & Cancer with Wageningen University
- Nutrition and Lifestyle in Pregnancy with Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU)
During my pregnancy and after birth I realised there’s a very limited offer for sportive women moms (to be) and barely any guidance for sports during these times. That’s where I want to help, to make these women feel confident in exercising and maintaining a good overall health. Next to training people with various goals, I offer pre- and postnatal sports classes. I have a good knowledge about changes and complications that can occur during pregnancy and birth and use this for professional guidance in personal training and group courses.
I want to make sure that also pregnant women and new moms can keep exercising during pregnancy and after birth. Taking away their doubt whether the exercise they’re doing is good for them and their baby. I have the following related degrees:
- Fitness Trainer with AALO Opleidingen
- Small Group Trainer with AALO Opleidingen
- Licensed PowerMama Coach with PowerMama
- Registered in the EREPS (European Register of Exercise Professionals)
About PowerMama®
A training programme for pregnant women, women who gave birth recently and women with pregnancy related complaints. During the programme women will work on strength, stability, flexibility and endurance. All important muscle groups are treated and there is extra attention for specific muscle groups such as the pelvic floor and the core.
After the programme the participants have a good basis to do sports themselves, know what to look out for and what the “red flags” are. The aim is a healthy pregnancy and recovery of the mother and a good start for the baby. Next to the training, the participants will get in touch with other (expecting) moms, they get support from this, they can ask advice and share experiences with each other. This way the mothers get stronger, fitter and more resiliant, physically and mentally.
- The PowerMama Programme is recognised by the Dutch Ministry of public health, welfare and sports and is proven to be effective
- It’s the only programme that combines functional training with theoretical knowledge about pregnancy and postpartum recovery
- PowerMama Coaches are well educated with continues training
- PowerMama works closely with pelvic floor kinetherapists, midwifes and other experts
