“I hadn’t been to a gym in many many years, and had never worked with trainer, when I met Sarah I knew she was a good fit for me- her energy is gold and she shows up 100% as her authentic self.

In the past I had done many home work outs which ultimately led me to under eating and a neck injury. Postpartum and mom life had left me with very little muscle strength and one of my main goals for seeking out training with Sarah was to increase my strength.

Outside of her training expertise, sarah’s deep knowledge of muscle mind connections, the nervous system, nutrition and overall wellness were an added bonus of working with her.

Sarah created programs that were trailered exactly to my needs and had me build muscles I didn’t even know existed. When I first started working with her there were muscles I could not even engage but with consistency and her support the muscle mind connection was created and I could feel my strength building- little did I know she would be teaching me how to deadlift in a few short months of working with her. Sarah was flexible with my programming so on days my nervous system needed some TLC we were able to take training outside to the sunshine and focus on overall movement. Sarah moved me away from focusing on the numbers on the scale and towards how my body composition was changing and how my body felt.

With Sarah’s support, I can navigate the gym confidently and push myself to do things I did not think possible.”

“I've known Sarah for probably 12 years or so now. Over the years, she grew into a female inspiration, especially in fitness and later in personal growth. Sarah was my coach online pre-pregnancy and I really loved her training and nutrition programming. She is absolutely in tune with her clients needs, goals and will work to tweak and improve the plan if needed along the way. Sarah is incredibly knowledgeable in so many things wellness and beyond and for me was also a mental health ally to help keep my anxiety and well-being in check throughout my programming. I would recommend Sarah as a coach any day and wish I lived closer so that she could be my in person coach!! “

“I met Sarah a few years ago after having my third baby! Covid really did a number on my gym routine that lead me into a hole of not wanting to go to the gym. I reached out to Sarah about my goals & set backs and how I wanted & needed to do something ASAP!

She took that plea and kicked it into high gear right away, set up a plan for inside the gym, outside the gym & included guidance on my eating habits. She even took it beyond by checking in on and off hours and created a relationship that I can lean on for my physical goals & mental goals.

Sarah is an absolute asset to have in your life in and outside the gym and I can not tell you how much she made my quality of life better and more enjoyable. She sets you up for a lifetime of confidence & knowledge.

Thank you for all that you do even when I say I don’t like you after a set”

“What began with wanting a coach to help change my physical appearance, turned into finding a coach, a mentor and a friend with Sarah. Over this past year she has provided new perspectives and insight into my physical capabilities through strength training, mobility work, working on stabilizing muscles, warm ups and generally helping explain the “why” behind how the body works. Beyond that, Sarah has always placed an importance on mental health and checking in with yourself. She helps teach you how to reflect on yourself and your behaviours and is always understanding, adapting programs when necessary to support the season of life someone is in. Training with Sarah has helped me place importance on treating my body and mind holistically, managing stress and emotions through journaling, yoga, meditation and more. Sarah is a powerful, inspiring and tremendous person who treats you with grace, humanity and kindness. I would recommend her to anyone looking to understand their body and mind in a very well rounded way.”

“I had been casually strength training for a few years when I decided I wanted to work with someone one-on-one to customize my training and nutrition. I had done plenty of template workouts, meal plans, and group training programs, and decided I wanted to be more dialed in. That's when I started working with Sarah. I loved that she took the time to learn about my experience and comfort levels with fitness, that she had a lot of experience with a wide variety of training styles and sports, and that she was actively expanding her knowledge of nutrition, psychology, and pretty much anything related to the human body.

Sarah is great with helping set health and fitness goals, track progress, and stay accountable. But she never shames and is the most chill, compassionate person you will come across. She takes a very realistic, no bullshit approach to her coaching while making you feel incredibly supported, cheered on, and understood. She has helped me think through challenges in my career, personal relationships, and probably most importantly, my own mindset.

One of my memorable moments with Sarah has been her coaching me through my first powerlifting competition. It was a goal I had held for over two years but had stalled on mostly because I was so nervous to not do well. Sarah gave me a realistic schedule and lots of nutrition advice to lead me up to my special day, and then she went above and beyond by volunteering to be my handler for the day. She sacrificed her Saturday and drove over two hours roundtrip to support me through all my nerves and adrenaline. I'm so proud to say that we nailed my first meet and I placed first among all women, and I say "we" because I know my performance was directly tied to Sarah coaching.

If you're looking for a coach who will get to know you as a person, who can help you through fitness, mindset, and general life challenges, Sarah is your coach.”

“I had the privilege of working with Sarah for over a year and her commitment, expertise, and unwavering support throughout this time was nothing short of amazing. From day one, Sarah's attention to detail in her video reviews and personalized approach to training have significantly enhanced my form and confidence in the gym.

What truly sets Sarah apart is her genuine concern for my mental health. She recognizes the connection between physical fitness and mental health, and consistently offered encouragement during my most challenging moments. Her positive reinforcement and belief in my potential have not only improved my performance in the gym but have also promoted a different outlook on how I evaluate my mental state and listen to what my body needs.

I cannot recommend Sarah enough as a fitness trainer to anyone seeking one.”

"I can confidently say that Sarah has been the best influence on my fitness journey. When I moved to Carleton Place and felt lost in terms of maintaining a consistent gym routine, I reached out to Sarah through Instagram and have now been training with her for a year!

From day one, Sarah's patience and genuine approach stood out. Her ability to tailor each workout to my specific need/energy level ensured that I never felt overwhelmed or discouraged. She built me amazing programming that I could do on my own and she gave me the structure I needed to not feel lost in the gym. She consistently provided constructive feedback, corrected my form, and motivated me with genuine care. Her ability to balance being both a motivator and a friend is truly commendable.

Beyond her expertise as a personal trainer, Sarah's warm personality and sense of humour made every session enjoyable. She not only pushed me but also created an environment that felt like exercising with a great friend.

If you're looking for a personal trainer who is not only knowledgeable and skilled but also patient, genuine, funny, and willing to adapt to your unique needs, I wholeheartedly recommend Sarah. She will not only help you achieve your fitness goals but will also become an incredible friend and ally in your journey towards a healthier and happier life."

I met Sarah about 7 years ago. We were coworkers at the time, I was just beginning my fitness journey and she was powerlifting. It was Sarah who inspired me to lift heavy and even though she wasn’t my coach at that time she was always there encouraging me, giving me tips and feedback.

After suffering an injury I wasn’t able to powerlift. I had to ease my way back into the gym but I felt lost and unsure of where to start. I reached out to Sarah for her help and guidance, she tailored a program that would rehab my injury and build strength.

Sarah provided me with consistent support, always willing to listen and give help with my training, nutrition, and emotional support.

Thanks to Sarah I feel confident under a bar again, my body feels better, and I feel stronger. I am able to enjoy lifting again. I couldn’t have asked for a better coach for my recovery!

Her passion for fitness and knowledge of body mechanics, nutrition and women’s bodies in particular, really sets her apart from others in the industry. Sarah not only helped me get back into the gym, but completely shifted my mindset. With her support each week, I found the motivation and consistency I was missing before. Unlike other programs I’ve tried, this has become a true lifestyle change, not just another workout program or diet fad. I'm stronger, healthier, and more confident than ever, all thanks to her expertise and encouragement. I highly recommend Sarah if you're ready to make a real change!"
