Experience
Certified Personal Trainer with 18 years experience
I was born in North Battleford Saskatchewan and moved to Alberta in 2003. I went to school at Mount Royal College to pursue a career in the fitness industry and in 2005 I attained my Personal Trainer Certificate. I moved to Canmore shortly after to start my career as a personal trainer and fitness instructor.
My passions in life are mountain adventures, being a dog mom, an aunty, snowboarding, working out, yoga, family, friends, and Excel Fitness. Each of these motivates me to live a healthier and happier life.
Excel Fitness was started in January of 2008. It offers personal training, group personal training, corporate training, and fitness classes out of a studio. Fitness classes offered are Boot Camp Strength Classes, Spin classes, Boxing classes, TRX classes, and a touch of Yoga. Excel Fitness is focused on alignment-based movements for any fitness level to keep you safe while exercising. As the owner, I continue to grow with the industry taking courses each year to keep the training at Excel Fitness high quality and up to par with professional standards.
I do specialize in working with injuries and getting you back to feeling your best. I specialize in customizing proper exercises that will best suit your situation. I personally have been through 2 major back surgeries in the past 6 years, and I cannot stress how important it is to be strong pre and post injury.
I also work with clients with Parkisons, MS, cancer, and more. I am passionate about how fitness can help you through your health issues.
