melbourne Bike Fitting, Physiotherapy, strength and Skills Coaching
Hi I’m Gem,
I started Baseline because I know what it’s like to be new to something - excited, curious, and unsure where to start. When I first began cycling, I had no female mentors, and seemed to learn everything the hard way. I made mistakes, I sometimes took the scenic route or suffered through things I now know to be optional (ie ill-fitting saddles and poor nutrition practice). This experience shaped how I approach physiotherapy and coaching today.
With over a decade of riding and racing experience and years working as a physiotherapist in Melbourne, I’ve seen how movement and mindset intersect. That understanding is what drives my approach at Baseline - helping people build strength, move well, and stay injury-free for the long term.
At Baseline, every session is practical and evidence-based. Whether it’s strength and conditioning, bike fitting, physiotherapy for injury treatment, management, and recovery or skills sessions- I focus on giving you the tools and education to feel confident in your body and on your bike.
Whether you’re a cyclist, runner, or recreational athlete, the goal is the same: to help you perform better, prevent injury, and enjoy movement - on the bike or beyond.

Bike fitting built around your body and riding goals.
Because a bike fit isn’t just about chasing numbers. It’s about understanding how your body moves, how your bike supports you, and making small changes until riding feels natural, comfortable, and sustainable.
At Baseline, bike fitting is a conversation between you and your bike. I combine physiotherapy, cycling experience, and real-world riding knowledge to help you feel more confident on the bike, whether your goal is completing Peaks Challenge, racing criteriums, riding longer with friends, or simply commuting comfortably to work.
No matter where you’re starting from, your bike should support the way you want to ride.
Your bike should feel like you.
