Hi!

My name is Tanya and I am all about nourishing performance.

 

I believe in using a holistic approach to your sport performance, wellness and lifestyle goals. As a certified fitness professional and Registered Holistic Nutritionist, I believe in functional movement workouts, nutrition that supports all your activities and efficient use of your valuable time.

My journey has taken me on many paths to get here. I started out as an overweight smoker who wanted to embrace a healthier lifestyle but didn’t know how to start. My aha moment came when I was cheering for a college friend at the finish line for her first half marathon. I was so amazed at the different types of people who were accomplishing this amazing challenge and at this point in my life I wouldn’t even run for the bus. But this was it, I was so emotional about their accomplishment and I wanted to feel that myself. So, I put out my cigarette and had my friend write me a learn to run program and on to a new path I went. Since that day in 2005, I have changed my lifestyle from overweight smoker to an Ironman triathlon finisher.

My next path was to certification in strength conditioning and triathlon coaching. Since 2014, I have trained runners, triathletes and people who just wanted a healthier lifestyle. After 5 years of successful coaching and many personal and client goals achieved, I realized the missing component to enabling my clients and myself to reach our desired personal best performance was nutrition. That brought me to completing  a holistic nutrition certification from CSNN and I now nourish performance through effective and innovative training methods, whole food nutritional support and lifestyle strategies.

It wasn’t a simple journey with many bumps on the road. I’ve experienced challenges from overuse training injuries, hormone imbalances, digestive disasters and disappointing sport performances. What I’ve learned from these challenges is that I still love to train and race and that I want to support others on their fitness and performance journey, so they didn’t have to experience the same struggles.

Given the right knowledge and guidance you can overcome challenges and reach your goals. I can help you get there.  Contact me and let’s chat about how I can help.
