LESLEY-JANE SMITH

GROUP FITNESS INSTRUCTOR

Lesley-Jane “L J” Smith is a proud Bermudian with a lifelong passion for movement, sport, and community. Active from a young age, LJ grew up as a competitive swimmer, representing Bermuda on the international stage and developing the discipline and drive that still fuel her approach to fitness today. Her love for sport has continued to evolve through years of involvement in field hockey and triathlons, most recently completing a 70.3 Ironman in Texas in October 2025 — a testament to her dedication and resilience.

A busy mom to energetic 7-year-old twin boys, LJ understands first-hand the importance of balancing fitness with real life. By day, she is a qualified accountant (CPA), bringing structure, focus, and attention to detail into everything she does — including her coaching. She has been a committed member of the Waterfront Wellness community for over four years and officially joined the team after qualifying as a Les Mills Body Pump Instructor in December 2024. Having been a devoted Body Pump participant for more than a decade, stepping into the instructor role felt like a natural and exciting progression.

Known for her upbeat energy and love of early starts, LJ is very much a morning person. You’ll find her bringing motivation, strength, and positivity to Waterfront Wellness’s early morning Body Pump classes. Her coaching style is encouraging, inclusive, and grounded in a genuine passion for helping others feel strong, capable, and confident.

When she’s not at the gym, LJ is usually balancing work, training, and family life — proof that consistency, commitment, and a positive mindset can make even the busiest days feel empowering.
