Virtual Personal Training: A Journey

Welcome to Sunrise!

Let's start off with basics! My name is Chelsea and I am a Kinesiologist and Clinical Exercise Physiologist based in Saskatchewan, Canada. I started Sunrise as a way to reach women around the world who may have issues accessing gyms due to either confidence, knowledge or accessibility issues. I have always believed fitness is a very personal experience and can truly be influenced by so many other factors in life. By working with a personal trainer who is skilled in not only body mechanics and physiology, but also interpersonal relationships, habit forming and overcoming barriers, you can truly see growth within yourself.

I have known my whole life that I wanted to work in the fitness industry. I have a bachelors and a masters degree in Kinesiology, and also have worked as a fitness instructor for 4 years and currently work full-time as a Kinesiologist. I grew up playing sports and earned my love of movement from there. I want to inspire others to be more physically active and to more their bodies more often, even when it feels like there are too many barriers!

I offer online services including program planning, personal training sessions and sessions targeted at new moms! I have chosen this path because I know that there is a gap in fitness which is focused on helping women feel safe and confident! Notice how I have not mentioned 'burning fat' or 'losing weight' at all? This is by design because I believe exercise should focus on function and feel, not look. If your goal is to lose weight, that is great, but I would ask this next, once you reach that goal weight, what is the plan to continue? My own experience has been that once I achieved my goal weight, it was not enough, and I realized that it never would be so I shifted my mindset towards function. Instead of how do I want to look in 50 years, the question became: what do I want to be able to DO in 50 years?

I know it can be scary to think of doing something outside of your comfort zone, but how else will you grow and continue to progress in life if you don't put yourself out there? It will take time, but all things that are worth doing will take time.

Now What?

The message is clear, it's time to make a change, the only question is: are you ready for it?
