Registered Kinesiologist & Movement Expert
...because Movement is Power
I have been absolutely blessed that my ‘job’ has given me such an amazing opportunity.
I’ve met thousands of people, from all walks of life, and helped them on their journey back to the activities they love.
And the best part? I absolutely LOVE what I do. I am more passionate about movement, and alignment, and biomechanics now than I was when I first graduated, over 25 years ago.
Movement is Power my friends.
And you should Never Settle.
A Little History
I discovered Kinesiology as a high school runner when I was receiving treatment for knee pain that was holding me back from training. I loved the idea of Kinesiology – studying and applying the science of human movement. So my future was created by my bad knees!
I obtained my Honors Bachelor of Science Degree in Kinesiology from University of Waterloo and started on the journey that I am still passionate about.
I discovered that I had a real eye for analyzing movement and seeing asymmetries in the body.
And as I worked with patients to correct movement and alignment problems, I could see – and more importantly, they could feel – the changes this made not only to their bodies but to their life.
I continue to this day, even with decades of experience, to work on my evaluation skills and corrective exercise programming.
It’s an absolute thrill working with patients, figuring out how their body is compensating and creating corrective exercise strategies that help them feel better, move better, and reach their best potential.
But it’s a lot of work, don’t get me wrong. The patients I work with have a strong desire to achieve.
That’s why I work within 3 Specific Patient Pathways.
