As a physiotherapist and fitness leader, I can honestly say the human body never ceases to amaze me. I have always been fascinated by what our bodies can accomplish if we just set our minds to it. I have my mom to thank for my love of exercise. I started doing her fitness classes at a very young age in church basements and community halls. She also got me into tennis, which I played for more than a decade at a national and international level.

At this point in my life I consider every moment I have to exercise a real treat. I have 3 very small children (including twins) and work part time as a private practice physiotherapist. For me, exercise is just as key to maintaining optimal mental health as it is to maintaining the physical health! I truly love teaching fitness classes. My goal when I teach is to help my participants enjoy their workouts as much as I do mine, and recognize what a gift we are giving ourselves by making the commitment to exercise. . Whatever your reasons for exercise, you can be confident it will help you in every aspect of your life.
