Hi, I am Laura, the owner of Drop It Like A Squat.
I am an Online Coach who has helped hundreds of women over the last few years to feel FITTER, STRONGER & HEALTHIER.
I also run my own Women's Bootcamp sessions every week in my local area in Southampton.
If you are stuck in a rut with your health and have no idea where to start... you are in the right place.
I can help you!
There are so many Fitness Trainers & Online Coach's these days so I know it is hard to choose which one to go with.
The main thing that sets me apart from others is that 'I GET IT!'
I am a busy Mum of 2.
I live and breathe the tantrums, mum guilt, the constant overwhelming feelings, the exhaustion, the lack of time to yourself, sleep deprivation and all the crazy emotions that come with motherhood.
No pre/post natal fitness course or years of experience within the fitness industry, can give you the insight on how to tackle a fitness journey when you are a Mum.
Unless you are living through mum life, you just don't get it.
I understand the struggles, the constant barriers, the never ending changes in routine, so I will always RELATE, LISTEN and EMPATHISE.
There is no judging if you skipped your workout because you were up all night feeding or couldn't make bootcamp because you had a bad day with the toddler!
I am here to help you, work with you and overcome the hurdles, using my own experience of juggling mumlife and 'healthy' life!
At Drop It Like A Squat, I am here to help you build a routine which works for your lifestyle.
Fitness doesn't have to be complicated and you definitely don't need a gym membership to get in shape and feel good.
I take the thinking out of it for you.
I keep it simple and achievable.
I don't give up on you no matter how many hurdles are in the way.
I thrive on helping women feel their absolute best and am here to help as many of you as I can.
Whether you want to join my community bootcamp sessions or commit to an Online Coaching plan, I will welcome you, educate you and get you to where you want to be.

"I’ve used Laura’s 121 coaching after I had my second baby. I absolutely loved the way she completely gets mum life and how hectic it can be juggling children, sickness and working.
Laura’s not a quick fix, she teaches you a way to manage day to day life and creating good habits and watching your every move via her amazing app making you accountable. It’s so easy to use. I couldn’t recommend her enough, us mums need to look after ourselves too!"
"I started online coaching when my baby was 9 months. I came across Laura on Insta and didn’t have any idea what to expect, I just knew I had no clue how to carve out the time to build back strength and shift the pregnancy weight with no time and a baby who was not sleeping!!
Laura has been so easy to work with, encouraging (honest when needed!)and flexible. She’s made it simple (short home workouts and follow alongs) - that’s what clicked for me. A lot of weight came off but for me the biggest thing has been the shift from using exercise purely to lose weight to genuinely enjoying it for my mental health. Mum life can be tough! Thanks Laura."
"I have known Laura for around 10 years after working in the leisure industry together!! I have always worked shifts so I could never attend her bootcamps. In March 2023, I had my first baby and then Laura started buggy bootcamp in the 6 weeks holiday. I thought perfect I can finally join in!! I have loved attending these classes. It’s a really good way to start the week.
Getting back into exercising after becoming a mum was hard but Laura was so kind and lovely and made me feel welcome and excited to continue!! Me & Penelope love our Monday mornings at bootcamp!!"
"Laura is just who I needed in my life! From bootcamp, buggy bootcamp, PT, nutrition advice and online PT I love them all.
I’ve been using Laura for about 5 years now and I find it so beneficial for my physical and mental health. She’s so easy to get on with and is great if like me you aren’t a fitness guru!
She caters for pregnancy and I’m now in my second pregnancy while training with her and she has been amazing at tailoring exercises to suit my body’s needs. 100% would recommend Laura to anyone and everyone!"
"Just over a year ago, I was unhappy with my weight. Pre-child I would be in the gym 3-4 times a week but post-child, I didn’t have time to commit to gym sessions and so I lost my fitness and put on weight. I saw Laura’s online coaching and thought I’ve got nothing to lose, so DM’d her. I have literally not looked back. 12kgs down and I am fitter, stronger and slimmer than I was in my 20s.
Laura is an amazing coach - a mummy to two boys herself so gets the juggle and the struggle! She has been so refreshing to work with - always about the encouragement even if you’ve temporarily fallen off the wagon!! I cannot recommend her highly enough - get involved, it will change your life ⭐️"
"Boot camp has changed my outlook on exercise. Since giving up Ballet at 21 I have not committed to any exercise just dipped in and out of classes, but after covid and having my son, I decided I needed to get back some me time and I joined Laura’s boot camp.
Started with 1 a week barely being able to use 2kg and now I go 2 times at least and lifting more 💪🏼 not only has it changed and improved my fitness but I have made some amazing friends by going.
Laura is the most caring coach I have ever met but also pushes you in the right places to hit your goals!"
"Bootcamp gives me space to breathe and clear my mind and I so desperately needed it today. So thank you.
Bootcamp is one of my constants, each week and it's very important to me. Love the bootcamp family and everything it does for us. I am very grateful to have you and bootcamp."
"Laura’s bootcamps got me back into fitness and enjoying exercise again after having two children around 7years ago! They are suitable for all fitness levels, fun and it’s great to be outdoors!
Laura’s online coaching is great for focussing on your goals and keeping you accountable. Laura ensures targets are realistic and achievable. Laura is supportive, understanding and knows her stuff!
Would recommend Laura to anyone who wants to reach a goal, feel better about themselves or just get moving more!"
"As a zumba instructor teaching twice a week and getting closer to 40, i felt like I needed to do something else to help me get fitter and stronger, as i have always struggled with my upper body strength. Boot camp with Laura has been the best thing I've done.
Everyone is friendly and the class is welcoming and always a mix of different work outs, which I really enjoy! Such a lovely group of ladies, no pressure, can take things at your own pace and adapt if needed and you leave feeling happy, sweaty and extra calories burnt after lots of laughter too"
"I love the flexibility of the classes, the Monday morning buggy bootcamp means I have a good workout whilst my toddler has fun, playing, joining in or just eats snacks on my mat! But also I can join the evening classes and take time out for myself too! Laura is so kind, understanding and knowledgeable! We love bootcamp!
Thank you!"
