Jade McDiarmid

Jade has practised yoga for several years alongside a passion for fitness and endurance sports, including long-distance running, completing two marathons and competing in triathlons. Through her own training, she experienced first-hand how yoga could complement sport by improving mobility, movement, recovery and body awareness. This deepened her practice and led her to complete her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training in Canada in 2025, qualifying in Hatha and Vinyasa yoga.

While living in Canada, Jade also discovered CrossFit and quickly developed a passion for the combination of strength, movement and community that it brings. When she moved home to the Highlands, she was delighted to find CrossFit 57 North and join her local CrossFit community, continuing something that had become such an important part of her active lifestyle abroad.

Jade is passionate about helping people better understand their bodies and how they move, using yoga and breathwork to develop mobility, movement, strength and recovery. Her classes are accessible to all levels, with a focus on moving well and giving people practical tools that complement their training.

When she's not teaching or training, you'll usually find Jade in the mountains, hiking, skiing or enjoying one of the many outdoor pursuits the Highlands has to offer.
