Welcome! My name is Kristen, and I'm a certified Group Fitness Instructor and licensed Occupational Therapist (OT) who has been working in the field of health sciences for over 15 years. I am experienced in leading a variety of fitness classes, adapting exercises and catering to all levels of physical abilities. 

 

Being both a Fitness Instructor and OT, when I lead classes I make sure participants use the proper form to prevent injury, while still providing a challenge to make sure you get the workout you desire.

​

​

• YMCA Fitness Instructor since 2015, teaching Bootcamp, Toning, Circuit Training, BOSU, and Core Conditioning

• YMCA Fitness Instructor Training (FIT) certification since 2015

• CPR Heart Saver Plus/AED (A+) Certified since 2014

​

My education:

• MSc in Occupational Therapy, McGill University, 2017

• MSc in Epidemiology, McGill University, 2010

• BSc in Health Studies, University of Waterloo, 2004
   

Being a Montreal resident for the past 14 years, I've learned how to adapt to the changing seasons and maintain my activity level throughout the year in order to stay fit and stay well. Join me to challenge your body and stimulate your mind in a friendly and encouraging environment.

Looking forward to meeting you!
