Hello/Bonjour/Hola:

My name is Michelle, and I am the Owner of Beta Strength + Coaching. I’m a Kinesiologist and Gerontologist with national certification through the Canadian Society of Exercise Physiology (CSEP-CPT). I’m passionate about movement - outdoors in nature if possible - and I thrive on teaching others innovative functional fitness.

Playing team sports early on taught me that while I am not the most naturally gifted or talented athlete, there is so much to gain from grit + perseverance.

My approach with clients involves curiosity and resilience: I enjoy learning about other peoples’ experiences and how these may shape our lives and attitudes. I believe that strength training can be delivered with kindness, openness and always with a genuine belief in my clients’ abilities.

Although my area of interest and focus includes: 55+ demographic and athletes of all types - I am keen to work with any individual who wants to learn more about functional strength! My clients have ranged in age, gender and ability - from 15 to 70 years young.

In my spare time, you will likely find me rock climbing, trail running in the mountains or on flowy trails, backcountry skiing, enjoying time near the water, or listening to thoughtful podcasts.

I’m really excited to learn more about YOU - please get in touch if you would like to work with me!

- Michelle LeBlanc, BKin., MA Gerontology, CSEP-CPT
