About Yasmin Demir

I am Yasmin Demir, Health and Fitness Editor at MyBreezyLife and a certified personal trainer based in North London. I write about fitness, wellbeing, and healthy living for UK women who want practical guidance — not impossible standards, not extreme diets, and definitely not content that assumes you have two hours a day and a gym membership.

Background and Credentials

I studied Sport and Exercise Science at Brunel University London and qualified as a REPs Level 3 personal trainer in 2018. I spent two years coaching women at a North London women-only gym before moving into health writing full time. The questions my clients kept asking — how do I stay active during Ramadan, what can I do at home with no equipment, how do I exercise modestly in a public space — became the articles I needed to write. Six years later, that is still what this work is about.

How I Write About Health and Fitness

I write for real life. My workouts are designed around the fact that some weeks prayer times shift your whole schedule, Ramadan changes everything, and sometimes the most you can manage is a 20-minute walk. That is enough. Consistency matters more than intensity, and any movement is always better than none. I will never tell you to push through exhaustion, guilt yourself for missing a session, or follow a routine that ignores how your body actually works.

Fitness for Muslim Women and Modest Dressers

As a practising Muslim woman who trains modestly, I write about fitness from the inside of that experience rather than looking at it from the outside. My workouts work in a living room, do not require a mixed-gender gym, and can be adapted around prayer times and fasting. The Ramadan content I write comes from twelve years of personal experience maintaining a fitness routine during the holy month, not from a generic wellness playbook.
