Hi everyone! I just wanted to share an update on what programs and training I am offering in the community this year. Things have been really busy this last couple of months!

I am continuing to teach Gentle Fit at the soccer dome. This is a program we started at Core Fitness close to ten years ago and it is still booming! This group continues to amaze me and really keeps that ‘Core vibe’ alive, where we welcome everyone, have zero judgement and just have a ton of fun getting fit!

I was thrilled to be asked to do an off-season dryland training program this past summer where we had over 20 young athletes participate! That has also lead to doing in-season dryland for 3 hockey teams this fall/winter which has been a blast to get back into this side of training again.

One of the newest programs I am leading is called ‘Strong and Steady.’ This is a program for people with Parkinson’s disease or other mobility challenges. I recently took some courses on working with this population and it has been a great learning experience for me, and extremely rewarding to see some improvement in people enrolled in this program.

I continue to teach Gentle Yoga weekly which I love, because I think everyone can benefit from yoga!

Finally, I am Personal Training in people’s homes and doing personal programs online. I work with a lot of women over 40, helping them navigate these challenging years through peri-menopause and beyond, but I also work with young athletes, seniors, and everyone in between!

I miss Core Fitness every single day. But I am so grateful that I can continue to do these programs in the community and work with so many amazing people.

I am renting out 5 different facilities and packing loads of equipment with me everywhere so I sure would love if someone would open a facility I could train in - just putting that out there!

Feel free to message me with any questions about these programs.

Take care and keep moving! ❤️

Good times!
