Fitness & Nutrition Coaching

I have been working with Laura for several years now. When I first started, I had constant aches and pains, especially in my knees. I found simple tasks like, climbing stairs, bending over, and getting up off the floor, both painful and difficult. So far, I’ve lost 27 lbs and have kept it off, I don’t find simple tasks difficult and painful anymore, and on top of that I am doing things like, running, which I never thought possible at 66 years old.

I contacted Laura with the intention of reaching my fitness objectives and improving my level of fitness. She was able to put me on the right path to success. Laura gave me the time, coaching, and guidance on how to improve my physical talents in everyday practices. She assisted me in making corrections to my diet and workout regimen, enabling me to get the desired outcomes. Laura inspires others, embodies excellent leadership qualities, and is skilled at helping her client’s realize their own potential. She encourages leading a healthy lifestyle that is consistent with one’s individual goals. All things considered, Laura is a coach who, by virtue of preparation, listening abilities, and upbeat demeanour, is able to establish a deep connection and bond with her clients. In terms of me personally, she was able to recognize my shortcomings and strengths and came up with strategies to help me improve in each.

Before I started training with Laura, I was gaining weight, frustrated with yo-yo dieting, lacked energy, and the constant pain in my shoulders was debilitating. I had 3 major falls over several months, which left me struggling with simple daily activities such as lifting plates out of the cupboard and getting a shirt over my head.

Laura was very supportive, patient, and listened to my concerns. She created a program that was specific to me. She helped me break bad habits, and a bad relationship with food. She was very knowledgeable and educated me on nutrition, and helped me build a healthy, balanced lifestyle.

Since training with Laura, I have lost 27 lbs. I no longer have pain in my shoulders. I can lift my grandbabies overhead, and get up and down off the floor to play with them. I have more energy to complete day to day activities, and my mood is a lot more positive. My balance has improved significantly. I can now do the full progression of Tree Pose easily!

Through my fitness journey I have gained confidence in training, and in my relationship with food. I am more relaxed at parties, family dinners and holidays. I have the knowledge and tools to navigate these experiences so I can enjoy them at the same time as working towards my lifestyle goals. I can have both now, it is no longer one or the other. Over a year ago I wouldn’t have imagined that I would accomplish all that I have, and I couldn’t have done it without Laura.

I cannot believe how strong I have become in such a little amount of time. It’s motivating on its own to see how my increased strength has positively impacted my day to day functioning. I have also seen a big change in my stomach area that running and yoga never fully achieved. Laura’s programming is challenging and creative. I cannot say enough about the changes in body.

I have been working hard with Laura as my coach since June 2020. I am a full time working mama of one. When I started with Laura I made it clear that time is precious, and I have been able to consistently complete three (sometimes four) workouts a week since starting my fitness journey.

In the middle of the pandemic I was looking for something more challenging with my workouts, as well as some accountability. I knew Laura was coaching online and I reached out because I’ve witnessed her transformation over the past couple years and I was just in awe with how much she’s accomplished. I spoke to Laura about the areas I wanted to work on and she created exactly what I wanted; challenging workouts that I could do at home while building strength in areas I had never put much effort into before. Laura has been amazing to work with. She is unbelievably intelligent and knowledgeable about the body and what the client specifically needs. She’s so positive and a great motivation when you need it. I am now lifting weights that I never thought I would be able to, I am completing core exercises that I would never think of on my own all while improving my cardiovascular health. Daily tasks are easier to complete, while having more energy than before. Laura has been an absolute pleasure to work with and I can’t wait to continue to work with her.

My biggest takeaway from working with Laura has been a massive sense of personal empowerment. I understand the power of my daily habits and have been able to get out of unhealthy loops I was in before. I have the understanding around food, movement, and healthy lifestyle that have me feeling like I can conquer whatever goals I set for myself.

Laura has been so supportive and inspiring to work with. She really took the time to understand who I am and helped me level up my mindset so I could break through plateaus that I have had for years!

I can’t say enough good things about working with Laura. I am so glad I took the leap to start!

When I started this journey with Laura, my goals were simple, lose 15 lbs, improve my fitness level for the open, and reduce my risk of CVD and diabetes. What I wasn’t prepared for was the surprises along the way.

My sedentary work from home life in the basement wasn’t offset by my 3-4 days at CrossFit. Adding a simple walk every morning set my day off right. My age doesn’t define my fitness level. With good nutrition, mindful recovery and hard work, anything is within grasp. Deadlines and stress impacting my sleep and nutrition. I’ve learned various tools to help restless nights and not reach for comfort foods when I’m exhausted. A weight loss deficit doesn’t mean doing without because there will always be that birthday, holiday or celebration. So yes, I could enjoy and indulgence and still keep my goals in check. I’ve learned which foods aid in recovery, reduce inflammation, and which provide me with performance power.

The end result? 25lbs lost since last August, and surprising myself with an all RX Open performance. I can’t wait to see what this year brings. Thank you Laura - I’m so grateful for your support.

Over the years I’ve developed a very unhealthy relationship with food. Since working with Laura, she has completely changed that for me. Not only will she help you reach your goals, she will also teach you the tools and strategies needed to maintain a healthy lifestyle. It was amazing to have a nutrition coach that really individualized her programming to best suit you and help you overcome any obstacles along the way. Her passion from fitness and nutrition is truly inspiring and gives you that extra kick of motivation you’ve been looking for. I couldn’t recommend Laura enough!
