About Florence

Florence Scheepers is a psychology grad and kinesiology student. She is a certified personal trainer for the Canadian Society of Exercise Physiology, as well, a fitness instructor, and yoga teacher. She loves being outdoors, fine art, and lifting heavy things.

Although Florence was an active kid, a sports injury made even walking a struggle. After slowly recovering for over four years, Florence realized how important fitness is on one’s physical and mental health. She started exercising at the gym and became passionate with leading group exercise classes.

Unfortunately, the lengthily gym sessions, strict dieting, and delivering daily, high intensity workouts to patrons, took its toll. Rather than feeling healthy and strong, fitness had become over consuming and damaging.

Florence started to embrace the joy exercise can bring. Activities such as yoga are now viewed as rejuvenating and stimulating and lifting became a skill to master. As well food became nourishing and fuel to the body. With the new mindset, Florence returned to further her education with ambition to share her knowledge and love of fitness with others.
