“Anna is by far the best trainer I've had. Active my entire life, including undertaking classes with CrossFit for several years, nothing compares to the one-on-one training I've had with Anna. A true Kinesiologist, she's knows how the body functions, how to bypass injury and increase movement and build strength. I've been told by three different surgeons I need a hip replacement (and I do), but the training with Anna has increased my flexibility and strength, reduced pain, and delayed my immediate need for surgery. As anyone with an injury or disability knows, physical impairment can cause a blow to our sense of self - training with Anna has given me hope for a pain-free future!”

"I have been training with Anna for nearly two years, and the experience has been transformative. Anna’s flexibility in scheduling and personalized approach makes each session welcoming and motivating! With a strong focus on mobility and strength building, I’ve not only regained my confidence after my car accident but also surpassed a lot of my fitness goals. Anna has consistently pushed me to do my best while ensuring I feel supported and encouraged. I highly recommend her for anyone looking to elevate their fitness journey! 💪"

"I have been working out with Anna for almost a year in Cloverdale and I can't see myself ever stopping! I originally found Anna because I wanted to correct some poor posture habits that were leading to un-fixable neck pain, and after seeing her 1x per week for the last 9 months, my pain has almost resolved entirely. She's now been working with me on developing more power and strength in my golf swing :) If you are looking for a trainer who is safe, educated and also just so fun to be around, look no further! I 10/10 recommend Anna to all of my friends and colleagues xo"

I've been working with Anna for over a year and the journey with her has changed my life. I used to hate the gym, and I really thought that if I couldn't get into it with someone straight up coming to my house to work with me, then I would be a lost cause. What I learned from working with Anna was that I had multiple ankle and shoulder injuries that had not healed well and lacked the confidence and knowledge to work out safely and effectively. Under her coaching, I've really grown to love the gym! I am stronger, have better balance and posture, and am even working out on my own because of the stress relief and other physical and psychological benefits -- and I'm looking and feeling better than I have in years! All of this is because of Anna's unique combination of motivating skills, ability to meet people where they are at, to challenge them safely and help them build confidence, and her kinesiology background has been huge in helping me build the right movement foundation to really expedite my progress. I'm a changed woman for sure, and will forever be grateful for Anna helping to turn around my relationship with fitness! Thank you Anna!

"As a former high performance athlete, I struggled with the transition out of a high-intensity fitness routine. I didn’t understand how fitness could be stress relieving or help lower health risks - I just thought that people worked out to only lose weight. Anna’s extensive kinesiology and fitness knowledge taught me that fitness has lots of healthy benefits toward everyday life and she helped me along every step of this transition process. Anna has made me feel very comfortable with stepping outside of my comfort zone in the gym and encouraged me to try new exercises that are fit for my goals. I really liked that she worked with me to create a programming routine designed to help me achieve my goal of being strong and maintaining my muscle mass. Finally, Anna is a fantastic role model for women looking to start or continue on their fitness journey. She is super supportive, kind, hard-working, and encourages the best in everyone!"

"Anna is motivating, knowledgeable, and she makes me feel comfortable giving 110% effort even on new exercises because she is so good at showing and explaining the movements. I currently workout with her 1-2 times per week at The Firm Athletica on west 7th avenue. It’s one of the nicest fitness labs in Vancouver. She even has an app where you can do home workouts and record your reps, heart rate, and also nutrition. Thank you Anna! "

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Anna for almost a year, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable and skilled in all aspects of fitness and training, but she also has a gift for making each session fun and enjoyable. Anna's ability to tailor workouts to my specific needs and goals has been impressive, and she always take the time to explain the ‘why’ behind every exercise. On top of that, Anna is just a great person to be around—friendly, encouraging, and easy to talk to. Training with Anna has been a game-changer for me both physically and mentally!

"Anna is an amazing personal trainer! She has changed the way we feel and think about working out. She is respectful, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. She adjusts workouts on the fly to better mesh with what you are able to do in the moment. I am so glad that we chose Anna to help us on our fitness journey."
