Hi, my name is Sandy and I was born and raised in Georgetown, Ontario.

I have been a fitness enthusiast for as long as I can remember. I took a leap of faith during COVID to leave the corporate world and to follow my passion to become a fitness coach. It's the best decision I ever made!

Why I took the leap?

My goal as a coach is to ensure that anyone that comes to my class feels safe, comfortable and leaves feeling better about themselves physically and mentally. I know how intimidating it is to walk into a gym and to do something that is out of your comfort zone. Age, gender and fitness level is not a barrier, it's an opportunity to shine. I'll be there every step of the way to meet your goals no matter how big or small. We all have an inner athlete waiting to come out. I want to help you prove to yourself that "You Can". 

200HR Certified Yoga Teacher

Certified Pilates Teacher

Beginning my journey nearly 15 years ago, I was first introduced to prenatal yoga and quickly came to see and feel the benefits.

Shortly after my oldest son was born, I sought after and found an amazing teacher that continued to expand my belief that yoga can not only change the body, but the mind also.  Fast track to 2017 when I decided to complete my 200 hour Yoga Teacher Certification with Michelle Cormack, owner and founder of 5 Elements Yoga and Pilates Studio.  

To say that this forever changed my life would be an understatement.  Since completing my training, I have taught at several studios and fitness centre's and continually look for ways to build on my knowledge by taking various workshops and obtaining certifications to better offer clients and students an array of options for their practice. 

As a mom to two busy boys, I can appreciate the time you carve out for your practice and am honoured to share it with you! I am excited to be joining the SO Fitness family and look forward to helping you enjoy learning, moving, breathing, and connecting on your mats!

I’ve been coaching small group fitness for just over 3 years now. Started out with kickboxing fell in love with the community and it grew from there. 

When I had a chance to become a coach, I jumped on the opportunity and haven’t looked back since. I do this because I love seeing the growth in individuals and celebrating every success big or small. 

Personally I love circuit styles of training and lifting heavy objects. Cardio is my enemy but I’m always up for an obstacle race or doing a couple burpees with a class if it means you going to the end of that timer.

I’m beyond excited to join the SO Fitness team and am looking forward to see everyone not only succeed but push past their own expectations. Lots of high fives to be expected!
