Hi, I’m Yvette, a Trainer and Fascia Stretch Practitioner here at Chop Shop Fort Saskatchewan. Although I’ve been residing in the Fort for nearly three years, I was born and raised in Edmonton. My family includes two elderly dogs (they’re 17 and 11 years old) and a cat. My fitness journey commenced approximately nine years ago. I was overweight and feeling overwhelmed. However, I met a personal trainer who transformed my life. She helped me overcome significant gym anxiety and reshaped my self-perception. Today, I relish being active. I enjoy walking with my dogs, kayaking, yoga, and running (though my knees aren’t particularly enthusiastic about the last one). I obtained my Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) certification through NASM. I thrive on continuous learning and actively participate in as many in-person courses and workshops as possible. The more I acquire knowledge, the more equipped I become to assist and support you! I’m delighted to be working out of Chop Shop, fostering a sense of community and helping others discover the beauty and strength within themselves, regardless of their current fitness journey. If you encounter me around, please feel free to greet me. I genuinely enjoy meeting new people.
