My Story
When I was young I drove my parents crazy converting everything in the barn into exercise equipment. I would rather read anything about weightlifting and fitness than what I needed to for school. It became very evident that this was going to be more than an occupation, it was going to be a lifetime passion. I was fortunate to have some great mentors from the fitness world that gave me a respect for the history of strength, yet also challenged me to discover what is new and provoking. I spend my days sharing my passion with all kinds of wonderful people...my life is great!
My Fitness Philosophy
Your happiness is your health. The world is best experienced with high energy, low pain, and high function. Physical activity is a source of great joy; find your motivation and stay active.

I later moved to California to be closer to my family and became a Les Mills and Zumba instructor in 2011 and have been working as an instructor since then.

My Story
I grew up in a small town on an Island in the Pacific Northwest. Naturally, I have always been drawn to outdoor activities and sports. Since I was a child, I participated in all sports ranging from snowboarding to baseball. I am currently
certified as a Personal Trainer and a Performance Enhancement Specialist by the highly respected National Academy of Sports Medicine. In 2010, I received a Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise Physiology from San Franscico State. I believe the key to my success as a strength coach has been the ability to understand each person’s individual goal and challenges, whether they are a CEO, stay at home parent or an athlete. Knowing what motivates and inspires my client's specific goals, allows for a successful design program with a variety of exercises specifically designed to keep them engaged and on the path to success.
My Fitness Philosophy
I believe that health and exercise should never feel like a chore, but rather something that you should look forward to in order to keep your mind and body as healthy as possible for yourself and loved ones, while enjoying everything life has to offer.

My Story
I trained for and won my first bodybuilding show in 1987, and went on to represent Team Canada at the IFBB Hawaii International Invitational contest. Twenty years later, I was on Team USA and turned IFBB Pro, which was a dream come true for me. I have been an athlete all of my life, but strength training has made such a difference in my life and physique.
My Fitness Philosophy
I found nutrition to be the missing link for success in achieving your fitness goals, so I became certified in nutrition. No matter what level you’re training at or what goal you’re reaching for, I believe in four things: nutrition, strength training, cardio and hormonal balance. I believe in incorporating fun, innovative and effective training techniques that fit into my client’s daily lives.

My Story
When I was a kid, I always knew that whatever I was going to do, it was going to involve helping people. Initially,I wanted to step into the field of psychology or medicine. As I’m soon coming to realize, college might not be the path meant for me. At an early age, I fell into a crippling addiction, leaving me severely underweight, and bearing a number of health conditions. A little over two years ago, that all changed when my father introduced me to bodybuilding. My mindset shifted, my habits changed, and I felt an overwhelming hunger for knowledge pertaining to building muscle and nutrition. Pushing myself in the gym every day had lit a fire in me that I hadn’t seen in years. It soon became very clear to me that helping people achieve their health and fitness goals was what I wanted to do.
