Hi! I’m Mandy. I’m a Certified fitness trainer, nutrition coach and Strength and Conditioning Coach. I am also an ERYT-500 Yoga Instructor. I’ve been working with bodies in motion my entire professional life. My passion though, is where pain meets movement.
Movement isn’t just something we do when we want to get fit, it’s the pillar upon which our lives are built. When pain disrupts it, life becomes very small.
I am a perpetual student. Not only have I mentored with some of the most prominent pain science educators in North America, I also spend time each year studying anatomy in the cadaver lab. I read research weekly. I learn from each and every client.
I am also someone who has a chronic pain issue. I practice what I preach, and it has allowed me to live without limits.
