Our Trainers

As a master fitness instructor, I have an extensive background in fitness with over 20 years of experience as a personal trainer, fitness director, and specialty fitness business owner. I’m certified through the accredited National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and have been a member of both the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA). Additionally, I have been certified as a TRX instructor.

Continuing education is extremely important to me as you can never learn enough about the human body!  So far, I’m proud to have collected these three advanced specializations to help me better serve my clients:

• 1) Corrective Exercise Specialist (CES)​ – A CES specialization enables me to help you reduce injuries and imbalances in your body 
• 2) Performance Enhancement Specialist (PES) – A PES specialization enables me to help you improve your athletic performance
• 3) Weight Loss Specialist (WLS) – A WES specialization enables me to help you lose fat and manage your body weight
  

In addition to these three important specializations, I’ve completed numerous courses in nutrition, senior training, SAQ (speed, agility & quickness), core & balance training. 

Through all of my years in the fitness industry, I have definitely learned what works and what doesn’t, which will help you get in the best physical condition possible in the shortest amount of time.  And I like to keep the workouts fun and exciting by incorporating sports-related exercises into your fitness regimen.  My philosophy is that if you’re having fun…you’ll be more motivated to be consistent, push harder, and therefore achieve ultimate results! So whether your goal is to lose weight, build muscle, or just be in the best shape of your life—I have the qualifications and experience to make it a reality!  

I am a certified personal trainer, holistic health enthusiast, and nutritional aficionado. I have an educational background that includes weight training, anatomy, physiology, nutrition, as well as a lengthy personal history of physical fitness ranging from recreational activities to marathon preparation to sport-specific training. My training approach is driven by a longstanding passion for helping others, and an eager readiness to meet clients where they are at in their fitness journey. My primary mission is to empower you to take control of your health, and equip you with the skill-set necessary to achieve your goals!

With an educational background in psychology, nutrition and personal training, I truly value the importance of approaching each client’s unique situation from a holistic perspective. I am passionate about meeting individuals where they are at in their wellness journey and helping to overcome common barriers to health and fitness. I consider myself a lifelong student, relentlessly seeking new knowledge via a variety of courses, books and podcasts. Assuring that my clients feel well supported, informed and safe is of upmost importance to me and I take pride in putting in the work to do so. 

When not at the gym or local yoga studio, I enjoy hiking, gardening and most of all, spending time with my husband and two young daughters.
