Eilish Kidd

Co-owner/Kettlebell Coach

I grew up in Tasmania and was educated in Launceston and Hobart. I then went to Art School in Melbourne, where I met a personal trainer who taught me how to work out. This led to my gaining fitness qualifications and, in a roundabout way, led to a trip to Indonesia where I met Miskad in a hotel gym, where he was an instructor.

I then spent some 10 years in Jakarta newsrooms working as a subeditor, editor, and a writer specialising in contemporary art before returning to Australia in 2009, working in gyms, and establishing Artgym in 2015.
