Wendy La Roche Bio
Born in Nice, France Wendy moved to Australia at a very early age. Raised in Brighton and educated at St Catherine's College in Toorak Wendy graduated as a high achiever moving on to Melbourne University where she completed her Arts Degree.
Wendy commenced her career at prestigious Chadwicks Model Agency working photographic and catwalk assignments in Australia, Europe and Hong Kong including Myer, David Jones, fashion weeks, editorial, swimwear, lingerie and body work.
Wendy is married with 2 children and after their births re-entered the workforce in modelling whilst also studying and achieving a Masters Degree in Marketing. Armed with this knowledge she applied the principles she learned in a specialist software firm once again demonstrating success.
Her passion for fitness never waned and finding it difficult to bounce back took time to revaluate her old habits and develop a new mindset. She found that to achieve balance with such a hectic lifestyle she needed to understand more about her body and more importantly the effects that nutrition has on the overall impact.
Wendy sought reputable advice from an industry expert and with the support of her family, friends and peers was drawn into figure with the notion that "it doesn't need to be hard". With 6 months ahead she made the commitment to do her best and start competing.
Wendy competed in the:
INBA Victorian Titles
WFF Australian Titles
WNBF Australian Titles
FAME Miami
With impressive results leading up to WNBF World Titles:
FIRST - Tall Class Amateur (2007)
THIRD - World Figure (1st and 2nd were Pro's) (2007)
FIRST - Tall Class Amateur (2008)
THIRD - World Figure (1st and 2nd were Pro's) (2008)
In observing other competitors Wendy realised that the hardest task was to maintain peak condition after competing. She realised that adopting a healthy, balanced eating plan to avoid excessive weight gain was going to be critical. Standing 5'10" Wendy's competition weight is 57kgs and her off season weight is 62kgs.
Wendy is constantly asked: "How can a woman working as a full time professional, managing a healthy family environment with 2 very active children still look so great?" The answer is surprising simple. Wendy absolutely loves the journey that she is on and is inspired to help others achieve similar results. So begins Wendy La Roche, WLR.
With her background in modelling and recent achievements in figure Wendy has learned through experience, making mistakes and study what it takes to succeed. The knowledge she has gained can now be packaged as complete wholeness connecting nutrition, mind and physique to obtain balance for life.
Wendy truly believes it is her duty to share her learning with those struggling to maintain their youthfulness and more importantly to frame the future of Australia's next generation of role models.
As a natural athlete and mother of a very impressionable daughter, her theories and methods are all healthy and natural.
