Making memories

We do what we love and we love what we do.


Finding our passion through inspiring others to move their bodies in ways that feels amazing to them is what we strive for in and outside of our classes. The three of us (Erin, Jamie, and Kellie) all grew up being active and movement has always been a part of our lives. We realize this is not always the case for those attending our classes. Our goal is to make fitness fun! Smiles. Laughter. High fives. Games. New moves. That is how we find what movement speaks to us and what inspires us to keep our bodies moving.

Today, we held a free Family Fit workout in Magrath Heights Park (southwest Edmonton) and oh my gosh was it fun!!!! Everyone was invited. Some mamas came by themselves for some kid-free time, others brought their husbands and children, some brought a friend. We had new moms, expecting moms, and weekend warrior moms. It was amazing!! The energy that was created from families moving their bodies, enjoying the fresh air and sunshine, and having fun together was unforgettable. Over 40 adults and more than 30 “littles” came out for this 45 minute workout!! Yes, there was chaos, but let’s be real, sometimes that is when the best memories are made.


After class, most of us headed over to the playground to reward the bigger littles for not running away during the class. We had multiple park-goers inquire about the class and they seemed excited to learn more about Fit Your Life!! That speaks volumes to everyone in our class today! YOUR energy is inspiring others! YOUR commitment to being a healthy role model for your children is motivating to those around you.




Let our children be our reason, not our excuse. Allow our ever-changing motherly bodies to move in ways that feel good. Do this for you!! You are completely and totally worth it.



Thank you for the memories of today!!!

Hello! I am starting this post with a huge thank you!! Jamie and I are incredibly humbled by, and grateful for the beautiful messages we have received since opening up about our journeys through this pelvic health blog series. Amongst your notes, we have found joy in knowing that you are becoming more aware of the changes occurring within your body. Many of you have even sought assessment because of our journey and we could not be more proud of you for doing so. Truly! If you have not read our previous posts in the series, please check out Jamie’s first and second installments as we as my first that precedes this post! Also, I wanted to remind all of you that there are so many incredible women’s health physiotherapists in Edmonton and surrounding area.

We appreciated her approach, and her proximity ...

Pelvic Health Series: Our journey to regaining strength, alignment, & function Kellie - part 3

This has been a humbling journey for me. Not only seeing a physiotherapist for assessment and treatment, but also journaling about my journey through this blog series. Writing about my experience has allowed me to reflect and dig deeper into learning about my own body. My last blog post explained my initial assessment with Bounce Back Physical Therapy and diagnoses. If you didn’t read it yet you can find it here ! I want to now take you on my journey through my “homework”, three follow-up visits, and what being “discharged” means to me. Homework At each appointment – the initial and follow-ups – Jillian gave me a series of stretches, exercises, and tips to implement into my daily routine. As the list grew, I would often feel overwhelmed with how to sneak it all in. What made it feel more manageable was when I remembered our discussion about how it’s okay to be imperfect and really that our goal is to have perfect alignment and engagement available to us. I actually came t...

5 Healthy Tips for the Holidays!!

During one of my last boot camps of 2010 I asked each of my participants to come up with a plan to keep up with their hard work over the holidays. We do not want to ruin your hard-earned results during Christmas, however, this does not mean that you cannot still enjoy some holiday favorites! Here are some tips and tricks to stay fit and not feel any food-guilt over the holidays: 5) Bring a side dish of your own! Offer to your host that you bring a side dish to accompany their meal. Not only are you helping them out with less to cook, but you are offering your family and friends a delicious and nutritious recipe! 4) Use a smaller plate. Sometimes, we do not have choice of what will be served, and we do not have a way to bring our own healthy recipe. By choosing to use a smaller plate, you will eat less and still enjoy all of the delicious food provided for you! 3) Sample, do not indulge. Around the holidays, we are surrounded by cookies, cakes, and all types of delicious treats. So, ins...
