About ME

Hi, I'm Christina. My favourite thing in the whole world is to explore beautiful places from sea to sky, and know that my body can get me there.

My fitness journey started just like yours. About twelve years ago, I decided I wanted to lose some weight, feel fitter and look more "toned". I started running and doing abs at home, but at this point, the gym was way too intimidating of a place. I didn't know what to do, so I didn't go.

WELL, it didn't take long to realize that this tactic was getting me nowhere,  so I mustered up the courage and got my first gym membership. In the beginning, I would stick to what was comfortable- the treadmill and the "women's" section. I slowly built my confidence up from there and started to lift weights. Soon I was falling in love with not only how strong I was getting, but also with how the way my body looked became less important than how it felt. Over a long time, I got more comfortable in the weights section. Now it feels like home!

I started hiking and spending more time outdoors about seven years ago- I fell in love with it almost immediately. I was reaching these incredible places that just made me think, wow, I got here with my own legs! The new confidence I had in myself was incredible and the feeling of pushing myself farther than I thought I could made me feel invincible. I was able to TRUST myself and the resilience of my own body and mind. I've been able to try so many new things that I used to thing were impossible or crazy.

I literally could conquer mountains. 

Having accomplished all this, I wanted others to feel it too. I became an ACE certified trainer to help others reach their body's full potential and become strong, confident and empowered inside and outside of the gym. A healthy and balanced lifestyle is key to getting the most out of our bodies and to feel great. Everyone can benefit from feeling fit, healthy, and strong. My goal is to help you get out into this beautiful world and feel strong and confident with whatever challenges you want to overcome in life.
