Arciemme Active

Personal, individually-tailored health and fitness programs with face-to-face or online services available. All ages, shapes, sizes and abilities welcome!

I'm Ruth Calder Murphy, aka Arciemme. (R. C. M! )

I'm a vegan and a veteran (age 40 + ) ultra-marathon runner. I'm a mother, an artist, music teacher, and writer and I believe strongly in whole-person well-being. Hence my philosophy of a healthy mind in a healthy body being paramount to all areas of my life and work.

Everyone has the right to discover the joy of being active in their bodies, right where and as they are - and to find ways of becoming the healthiest versions of themselves that they can - and want - to be.

This belief is at the heart of my approach to personal training. It's what it says it is: personal.

Whether you're an athlete wanting to hit PBs in your next competition, or a complete beginner who feels unsure about the best way to pluck up the courage to leave your house for your first ever run, I'm committed to working with you to achieve your short-, medium and long-term goals, without assumption or judgement.
