Meet Donna

Growing up in Edmonton, I was an active child participating in school athletics, soccer, baseball, skating and Ukrainian dance.  I lifted my first dumbbell in Grade 11 at our high school gym and joined my first fitness center in Grade 12.  I loved the way exercise made me feel!

Moving to Athabasca over 20 years ago where facilities didn't exist necessitated a change in order to stay active, so I began teaching fitness classes.  It was a great way to stay in shape and meet new people.

As our family grew, I taught out of my home introducing participants to the benefits of strength training with weights.  Then in 1997, my husband and I, opened Athabasca's first commercial fitness center which we ran for 13 years.

2010 led us down another path as we transformed our commercial fitness center into a private training studio catering to individual and small group personal  training.  You could say we've come full circle.

I believe in a healthy balanced lifestyle, and I'm committed to inspiring positive change in every individual that I meet and work with.  I love offering personal service and catering to the individual needs and preferences of my clients.
