What DediKate Rural means to me!
DediKate Rural is all about connecting women like you and I through exercise. It’s for rural and regional women, and all those who love our down-to-earth approach to fitness (city girls welcome of course!). We focus on how exercise makes us feel, how it energises us and what we can achieve when we look after ourselves. Being a farmer's wife and a Mum I know first hand how hard it can be. But exercise saved me! I refound my self identity, felt good about myself again and gained confidence through short 20-30 minutes workouts at home.
Kate x Founder, CEO, HIIT + Strength Trainer
"Rural and/or Mum Life is busy. But exercise is not a luxury, it's fundamental to being human. We all deserve time to exercise and look after ourselves!"

Anna - Alexandra, NZ
“I have been a DediKate member for a few years and I love it! It is a game changer with my energy levels, mindset and daily productivity, and it's especially great in the summer where I am especially time poor. I’m looking forward to committing to DediKate Rural … hoping a few friends will join me too"
Brooke - Tamworth, NSW.
“I’ve been a DediKate member for almost a year and haven’t looked back. I am travelling Australia with very little fitness equipment. I didn’t think the variety and effectiveness of one platform was possible but it totally is with DediKate. I'm really looking forward to DediKate Rural, I know the trainers and online community will encourage, motivate and inspire me to tackle the challenge. Let’s do this!”
Emily - Tarras, NZ
"I've been a DediKate member since the first lockdown in 2020 and it has carried me through many phases of life. I love the adaptability, flexibility and variety of the workouts to suit my body on any given day, in any location and HUGE bonus I can do it from the farm, around bubs and don't feel like I'm missing out on the gym. I find the challenges give me motivation knowing others out there are doing it together and also take out the guesswork of what workout shall I do today."
Nicola - Karatha, WA
“There’s so many things I can think of that are amazing about DediKate. The supportive community, the endless choice of workouts at your fingertips, the trainers and their down-to-earth real life vibes (cats, kids, phone calls, impromptu guests ) I’m definitely a visual person so I’m looking forward to having the DediKate Rural chart on the fridge and and challenging myself to some different workouts.I'm a Kiwi living in Karratha WA. I’ve been a member on both sides of the ditch."
Martina - Martinborugh, NZ
"I joined DediKate during Move for Mental Health week which gave me the motivation to get back in to exercise and has transformed my mental health!! I love how you can pick and choose different workouts if you need a quick pick me up or a long relaxing session. I look forward to continuing to improve my fitness and strength with DediKate Rural!"
Rosie - Wakefield, NZ
"I have been a DediKate member for years, with different levels of commitment as time has gone on, but I love that I continue to get motivational emails and challenges to uplift me when I am in a funk! I am looking forward to the DediKate Rural challenge connecting me with likeminded people, taking my much improved fitness and strength to the next level and to falling back in love with myself."
Sarah - NSW
“'I have been a DediKate member for a while now, I am so thankful for DediKate and how it has been able to support my fitness journey living remotely. It means so much to me, and I know to so many other women!! I am excited to get started on DediKate Rural and to also support other rural and regional women to keep active!"
