Testimonials

"I owe Cristina a lot. She kept me in physical shape through, I think, the most difficult times in my life. I needed a person, and still do, who really wants to know how I am when we workout and adapts the training. I am an aging person and that does not stop her. She knows how to get the best out of me and what I need in most circumstances. Experienced and adaptable, if something does not work, she (we) will try something else. Everything is easier with someone who is in the mood to laugh out loud early in the morning."

Pierre-Yves Pouliot

"I started training with Cristina in 2017 after my knee replacement.Cristina was instrumental in getting my body back to normal. I have a great deal of trust in Cristina as a fitness trainer. She has a vast knowledge of the human body, and she knows exactly how to tweak the exercises to meet my needs.In addition, to breathing exercise, I do weight training, lunges and bridges. I do many exercises to strengthen muscles function and ease joint flexibility."

Testimonials

"I have been working with Cristina for the past year, and it is one of my favourite parts of the week. She listens to your fitness goals, crafts creative workouts - from bosu to bodyweight to burpees, we've never done the same thing twice - and challenges to go further with her incredible positivity. Having her based in the beach is ideal - in good weather, our outdoor sunrise workouts provide an energizing start to the day. If you are looking for a knowledgeable, committed and motivating fitness coach, I couldn't recommend Cristina more highly."

Sharon F.

"Thank you Cristina for your commitment, dedication and caring. I am in the best shape I have been in years. Your knowledge and positive attitude helped me get here. You are a terrific trainer, and I couldn't have done it without you."

Marsha Bronfman

"Cristina is an excellent personal trainer who I recommend highly! She is very personable, knowledgeable, experienced, totally focus on her clients and passionate about her work. I wasn't sure how I'd like working with a trainer as over the years, friends and colleagues had had mixed success with other trainers. When I decided to try working with a trainer, initially I committed to only two months so that I could see how I liked it. Needless to say, many months later, I'm still working with Cristina and I will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. Her training method is superb as she ensures that the training style is one that you're comfortable with and she checks in with you to make sure that the approach is working for you. As well, she is observant and insightful as she spots things that may be causing issues, such as the effect of past injuries. I had been working out on my own for years and have seen the difference working out with Cristina has made. She has introduced me to a variety of exercises that I would never have tried, including ones that emphasize mindfulness. Anyone looking for a personal trainer who is outstanding, will help keep you motivated and is a good fit, can't go wrong if they begin working out with Cristina."

Allison D.

"Cristina has been my personal trainer since February 2017. After years of chronic pain and two knee replacement surgeries, daily walks and other outdoor activities stopped. Cristina's methods have improved my balance, posture and overall movement. I have been going to the gym regularly for years. Cardio was limited to the cycle and treadmill. Thanks to Cristina, I have added more cardio activities. Cristina personalizes each session to meet my needs and particular issues of the time. She has a vast knowledge of the human body and knows exactly how to rid the body of a particular joint or muscle pain. Thanks to Cristina, now I can do planks and bridges and the daunting TRX. Cristina is a true PROFESSIONAL who treats people with great respect. Thank you Cristina. My improved mobility has led to an improved quality of life."

"Since I decided to get fit and healthy 15 years ago I have worked with several trainers. Cristina, by far, is the best trainer I have worked with. She cares about my well-being and works closely with me to help determine what my goals are. She also provides and encourages a routine that is not a "cookie-cutter", one supporting a "tailor-made" workout that is best for me and obtains the desired results. I feel strong, energized and happy after my workouts with her."

James White

"It's one thing to think you know what you want to improve, another entirely to figure out what to do about it. While I'm fit and active and have been doing my own thing at the gym for years - enhanced from time to time by recos from physiotherapists - I realized that accumulated injuries, health issues, and aging required a ground-up rebuild of my routines. Cristina's expertise and keen observations provided insights that changed my workout objectives to focus on posture and flexibility. In addition to introducing me to an astounding variety of exercises and stretches, she patiently and expertly demonstrates, monitors, and gently corrects my technique. Cristina is a wonderful trainer."

John S.

"I am currently 63 years old and have right shoulder issues necessitating annual cortisone shots, an original left knee condition from about 10 years ago restricting my aerobics to low impact, and more recently, right knee issues that have severely restricted my workouts in many ways. Cristina was very professional from the beginning. She wanted as much information as possible for starters, including my doctor's description of the shoulder and knee MRIs plus my physiotherapist's suggested exercises and restrictions. In addition, Cristina contacted my physio with my express permission to confirm what I could/should do and could/should not do. Cristina has adapted each session depending on the state of either my right shoulder or right knee (both of which have been somewhat painful). She is excellent at customizing sessions no matter what the restrictions. She does her homework and makes various suggestions. Most importantly, because it is easy to give up when things are not going to get better, Cristina has encouraged me to keep moving and keep doing whatever exercises I absolutely need to do. Cristina style is gentle, knowledgeable, flexible, attentive and very professional. I would have no hesitation to refer Cristina to anyone, especially those in my situation requiring extra attention, patience and encouragement."

Sara L.

"I started working with Cristina about eight months ago. When I first started my training, I had severe lower back pain. It was so intense; I use to wake up in the middle of the night crying. Currently, I have no back pain, and I have strong core muscles. I couldn't have reached this point without Cristina's help, support and knowledge. Cristina has an eye to which parts of the body need attention. She is also flexible to what emerges for the client each session. She is a great team member with the client. Who doesn't want that! I highly encourage you to team up with Cristina. Your body will feel the change."

My Bio

My fitness journey began when I signed up for yoga. Experiencing the stress-relieving benefits sparked a desire to understand the musculoskeletal system, leading me to pursue personal training. I thrived on helping clients look and feel better. Years into my personal training career, I sought a deeper understanding of the mind-body connection, specializing in mindful meditation. This led me to discover Pilates, a perfect blend of physical and mental strength. I trained with a renowned Pilates school, grounding my practice in the Stott Method's mindful movement and core principles. After years of experience teaching clients with many diverse fitness challenges & goals, I recognized the need to bridge the gap between physiotherapy and fitness, and my latest specialization focuses on Pilates for those recovering from injuries and returning from physiotherapy, enabling me to guide clients on their safe return to fitness.
