Those interested in honing a holistic view to health and wellness can visit www.cristionaaston.com for more information, or to book a consultation.

“I have been training with Cristíona for the past two years and in that time have had such a great time doing some seriously punishing workouts. After having twins my core abdominal strength was shot to bits, my posture terrible and I felt very inflexible. Through the HIIT sessions and by targeting the all important glutes I have gained a lot of strength and improved my wellbeing greatly. Our sessions are always interesting and varied… with great results. Cristíona is reliable, energetic and an excellent teacher.” – Claire, mother of two

NATURE KINDERGARTEN

PRE-SCHOOL WITHOUT WALLS  

The Park Academy’s Nature Kindergarten is nestled in a small forest on the estate and provides a “unique classroom where the walls change colour every day and the ceiling is a kaleidoscope of hues of blues, whites and greys.” Modelled on forest school principles, “children explore their environment as well as their own capabilities”.

“Being able to “risk-assess” is another vital skill which…will help children not just to be ‘school-ready but life-ready’. Our children develop skills such as confidence, self-esteem, a love of learning and a ‘can do’ approach to life.” – Sarah Quinn, Education Coordinator, Park Academy Childcare.
