Lindsay May

I have been working as a fitness instructor for nearly 15 years, and my passion for this vocation and the people I work with, continues to deepen. I love spending time outdoors and being active and travelling. New challenges excite me, and lattes make me very happy.

My Sunday

Spending time skiing or wake surfing with my baby girls and my husband.

My Inspiration

Love, and goodness that exists in all of us; the people that have come into my life over the years, continually remind me that we are all human and that we all feel love and pain the same way.

My Favorite Class

YIN yoga, I love the stillness and the peacefulness.

Jessica Turner

Born with skis on my feet (well, almost), movement & sport have always been a part of who I am. After having my first child, I decided to take my love of sports & fascination with the human body, and turn it into a career. I love witnessing someone achieve something they haven't done before; it can be as simple as, nailing their squat form or as big as achieving their goals after months of dedication.

My Sunday

Coffee is always a good start, followed by a morning ski/board on the mountains, wrapped up with a mellow evening with family. In the summer, a run in the trails followed by an afternoon on a lake.

My Inspiration

My mom. She is full of life and open to new experiences & ways of being. She has given me the gift of unconditional love & has taught me that there is always more to learn.

My Favorite Class

Spin yoga, it’s the perfect balance. You push hard, sweat it out and then leave feeling grounded.

Sylvie Allen

I try my best to increase the stoke level in Pemberton; whether it’s coaching mountain bike clinics, training in the gym or sweating it out in class. My goal is to make sure each of your reps is perfect, and to teach you the tools you need to excel at your favourite sport. "You can achieve anything with practice, let desire be your guide".

My Sunday

Get up early, eat a big breakfast, pack a big lunch and go on a ski touring, mountain biking or hiking mission with friends; mountains are my happy place.

My Inspiration

My mom has taught me to stay positive, no matter what obstacles are thrown at me. She has taught me to LIVE life every day.

My Favorite Class

Yoga; I need to chill out a little more often.

Michaela Nelson

Throughout my competitive years as a kickboxer, I was lucky enough to have three amazing coaches. I was trained to believe, that failure was not an option; when I stepped into the ring to fight, I knew my hard work and long hours of training would pay off. My coaches were always supportive and proud of me, no matter the outcome of my fight, which has strongly influenced how I train my own clients; tough but kind.

My Sunday

Spending as much time as I can with my husband and my puppy; drinking coffee, eating brunch and walking/hiking.

My Inspiration

My mom; she is the rock that holds our family together. She has taught me to work hard, be the best that I can be and to never give on my dreams.

My Favorite Class

A demanding circuit or interval class that pushes my limits; I like the challenge.

Frances Moody

I grew up practicing dance and gymnastics, which flowed naturally into a passion for yoga. In the spring of 2015, I completed my 200 hr yoga teacher training with Julia McCabe. My teaching style definitely reflects my dance background; I love inversions and fluid transitions. As a student and a teacher, I am focused on body alignment and proper form.

My Sunday

Spending time at home with my family or hiking and adventuring with friends!

My Inspiration

The Pemberton Valley is filled with so many amazing people who are dedicated to living healthy, beautiful lives. I am thankful and inspired everyday by this amazing community I get to call home.

My Favorite Class

Lyrical dance class.

Hola! I am from Spain and I moved to BC 6 years ago. After years of training in Classical Ballet and dancing to ´Música Latina´, I acquired my Diplomas from the Royal Academy of Dance. I am also trained in Jazz and Contemporary Dance. I have recently completed my Zumba certification and I am currently studying the art of Burlesque.

My Sunday

Sleep in, call my mom, watch a good movie and cuddle with my pug.

My Inspiration

My grandma is and always will be; her free spirit and her strength, will always be with me.

My Favorite Class

Ballet / spin yoga.
