I am an independent Certified Personal Trainer new to Vancouver!! I moved here in September 2014 from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, where I offered private, semi-private and small group training sessions from my home studio. As a personal trainer I work hard to provide my clients with the knowledge, support, & motivation to reach their fitness goals. I always strive for effective, efficient, challenging but fun workout programs. My job is to listen, teach, coach and push you to be best you can be!!! I offer a non-intimidating, comfortable, enjoyable environment. Sessions are designed based on the individual clients needs, but I enjoy a functional approach using body weight exercises, a wide variety of free weight options- TRX’s, kettlebells, stability balls, bosu balls, medicine balls, barbells, dumbbels, agility ladders, cable pulleys, and many multi-functional movements. When working with a new client I always start with a Consultation. This is a “Meet & Greet” type of appointment where we get to know each other. I collect important information such as past & present fitness level, past & present health conditions/issues/concerns, general lifestyle and eating habits, what your present fitness regime looks like, what your goals are, and overall, how I can help you reach those goals and achieve and improved level of fitness and health. From here we develop a program that fits into your schedule while achieving maximal success.

** It’s important to find the “right fit” both for the client and the trainer. I greatly respect our time together and want everyone to feel their time is being spent wisely and optimally. If I feel there is another qualified trainer that can better fit your goals, I will let you know. Areas of Specialty

Time by the ocean is time well spent ✨

It takes effort to venture off and leave the house (especially now with a little one in tow). And you know, some days it is nice to just stay at home. But with a little effort come reward! I’ve never regretted a decision to get outside and explore.
What adventures are you going on this weekend?

Hike in the photo- St. Mark’s Summit.

I don’t know about you, but most days I don’t feel overly “motivated” to workout. And that’s coming from a personal trainer! Haha. But instead, it’s the actual workout itself that fuels my motivation. Usually after about 5-10mins I get into the groove, I feel better mentally and physically, I feel energized and more happy.. and THAT is what fuels my motivation to keep going.

So the next morning when I’m lying in bed thinking “man I don’t want to get up and exercise”…I remember how good it feels and if I just get up and get going I’ll feel so much better than had I stayed in bed.

I also really try to listen to my body. Some days it IS better to stay in bed or take a day off.
I go by this 10-minute rule…if I don’t feel better after 10mins than I can call it a day. If I’m exhausted and totally worn out, after 10mins I won’t feel energized, I’ll feel completely drained. That’s the sign that my body needs rest versus stress. In which case I’ll throw in the towel and call it done. But more often than not after 10mins I feel great and that drives me to keep going. 😊💪🏻

Would love to hear your thoughts on this! Let me know in the comments below.

30 min workouts are where it’s at! So doable to squeeze in 30mins vs 60-90mins. And if you use your time wisely those shorter workouts can still be super effective. Here’s my latest workout video - Lower Body & Core

What an unexpected beautiful morning complete with sunshine, eagles, seals and baby smiles ☀️ 🦅 🦭👼🏻

11/08/2021

Exploring trails in our new backyard

Every part of me wanted to just stay inside and watch TV all day, but then we would have missed out on…..

• seeing Weston’s eyes light up in curiosity as we walked through the forest
• breathing in fresh mountain air
• feeling that sense of peace, tranquility, awe & wonder that nature brings to your soul
• the beauty of giant, moss covered trees, eagles soaring high in the sky, quiet, pristine lakes, even salmon and seals swimming upstream

…..and then we got to return home, cozy up together under the blankets and watch TV…😉

So get out there my friends. 9 times out of 10 it’s always worth it ✨🙌🏻🍂🌲

I love playing in the rain!!!! HA NOT Really. Not when it’s been raining for days…or should I say weeks….with no end in sight. But I’m committed to getting outside everyday. It’s plays a huge part in my mental well-being. And I will say it’s a lot easier with some good quality rain gear like the awesome waterproof jackets & and pants from and the rain cover for my stroller. Keeps the little guy dry, warm, comfy and smiling 😊 I’ll just put on googles next time 🤪

Comin’ in Hot!!!.....hahah more like comin’ in as slow as I possibly can🤣 but hey...I still rode over it!! . “Bobsled” at Mt Fromme is an awesome run! Nothing technical or intense, just Fun and flowy! My kind of riding! 🤙🏻 . Thanks @endlessbiking for the rental and @clanthier1 for always being supportive, patient and riding the same trail over and over again 😆 . . . #learningtoride #northvancouver #mountainbiking #outdooractivities #trysomethingnew #getoutsideandplay #pacificsoullifestyle

Fitness Friday! Upper & Core combo exercises!! Try 3 sets of 20, or 3 sets of 60sec intervals.

Fitness Friday!!! Plank Jack - Jumping Jack Combo. This is a super fun cardio move that works your whole body! Try adding it to your workouts this weekend. OR! Next time you’re feeling sleepy at the office...bust out 10 of these bad boys! That’ll get the juices flowin’! But please... take off your heels and don’t rip your suit pants!! Haha 😉

Fitness Friday!! Another cool resistance band exercise- side steps! This move is more challenging than it looks! Great for working outer thighs & glutes & building endurance in the lower body. Start with 10-15 steps in each direction & build your way up! Also a Nice addition to circuit style workouts! Great piece of equipment to have at home or take on the road!

A beautiful way to start the morning! Whether you have 10mins, 20mins or 30mins, there is no better way to begin your day than some flowing stretches, gentle movement and meditation. This will Energize your body, fill your cells with oxygen, calm & centre your mind and expand your heart with gratitude. ✨💕🙌🏻 Have a glorious day everyone! . . Ps- stay tuned for A new OUTDOOR class I’ll be running this summer! “Flow into Friday”- 6:00am -7:00am Fridays in Coal Harbour, Vancouver. . . PSS- if you look closely that’s an eagle in the tree behind me! 🤩🦅

Fitness Friday! One of my favourite exercises is a Straddle Jump Burpee combo! It’s a full body movement and fantastic for working inner thighs, core and upper body! Not to mention it gets the ol’ heart tickin’. Try adding it between a strength training circuit for 1min duration or do a Tabata- 20sec on/10sec off x 8 rounds. 👊🏻

Fitness Friday!! Here’s one of my favourite exercises: side stepping plank with sandbag pull through!! Super challenging for your core, and great for upper body. 😁💪🏻 . Tips: Try not to rotate the hips as you pull (anti- rotation), keep abs engaged & watch any sagging in the low back. Tucking your tail under slightly will help! Keep pressure through your arms and hands to keep upper body active & prevent collapsing through your shoulder blades. SMILE 😃 .
