Throughout her life, Jana has been obsessed with helping people move better in their body. 

Jana has worked in the health and movement field for more than 25 years as a group fitness leader, personal trainer, Pilates fusion instructor, and University sessional lecturer. Her clientele has included all ages and phases of life (from 4 to 90+ years) and a wide range of abilities (from post-rehab to pre-professional athlete).

Jana obtained a BSc in Kinesiology and an MSc in Medicine. Her studies provided her a deep practical and theoretical understanding of the benefits of movement and the consequences of inactivity. Her approach to working with clients fuses together her educational and practical experience to focus on improving their strength, mobility, stability, function, and overall quality of life. 

Through years of intensive track and field training, competitive rowing, outdoor adventures, four pregnancies, and various injuries, Jana has experienced how bodies can change and have different needs throughout one's life. With this broad experience, Jana meets her clients where they are at, physically and emotionally, to provide the guidance and support they need to reach their goals.

When not in the studio, you will find Jana with her husband and four children, spending as much time as she can in nature, connecting, adventuring, relaxing, and having fun. This love of nature guides Jana and she strives to inspire and empower her clients to do the same.
