We are ALL BUSY these days, whether you are a busy mom and/or a busy business professional, decide to take the time...build a strong lean body, with a plan for your goals, age, needs and wants. It's about LIFESTYLE.
I don't work out the way I did in my 20's, and why would I want to? Things change, and so should our workouts and our food choices.
Born in BC, Christina has lived and trained clients in Victoria, BC; Valencia, California; and now Kelowna, BC. Always interested in fitness, nutrition and the human body, she studied Human Performance, Exercise & Nutritional Science at UVIC, along with Psychology. Forever a student, this is truly my passion.
Most of us share the same challenges: life, family, stress, hormonal changes... all things that can potentially derail us. Here is the thing, YOU are the creator of your own story, decide it's time to change your health, and allow me to guide you, that's what I DO BEST.
For those that would like a bit more history. While attending UVIC, Christina learned a ton while working with a Doctor and Psychologist at a Medical Weight Loss & Wellness Clinic. A few years later she took a position as the Wellness Director of a well known Fitness Chain. She supervised eight wellness clinics, for nine years before deciding to start her own business in 1993. She has never looked back.
After recovering from two car accidents, Christina became even more inspired to pursue a career in health, wellness and corrective exercise. "The combination of yoga, pilates & strength training has changed the way I see fitness. I wouldn't be running around having so much FUN hiking and skiing at almost 57 without this combination!"
Exercise is Medicine
Christina is genuine and relentlessly positive. Her specialty is working with those during the 40+ Hormone Years' and Beyond. We all want lasting results. Learning how to outsmart the 40+ fat cell, or any fat cell for that matter, comes down to what we eat (nourishing whole food), how we workout (safe, smart, efficient workouts) AND how we find balance. That formula varies for each individual, It's absolutely doable and SUSTAINABLE. Who doesn't want to get fit, lean and simply FEEL GOOD?!
