I always knew I wanted to be a teacher, I just didn’t know what form that would take. So at first, I thought my calling was to become a schoolteacher. After two years at the University of Caen, I realized I was meant to teach and empower people with knowledge, just not from behind a classroom desk. I wanted to combine my love for teaching with my passion for movement. That led me to pursue my diploma at the CREPS of Dijon, where I graduated as a certified personal trainer in 2013. I spent several years coaching clients in France, helping them reach their goals through fitness and nutrition. When my husband and I made our big move to Canada in 2017 The Fitness Ann’Venture was born. It started small, a few at-home sessions and bootcamps in the back of a supplement shop called BondNutrition. I later became a certified boxing/kickboxing trainer with "30 Minute Hit" and worked with a local gym specializing in one-on-one training. Then when COVID hit in 2020, and everything paused long enough for me to notice what was missing. I had been focusing on the fit part, for myself and my clients but I had neglected the deeper meaning of health. That realization was the seed for what is now The Holistic Ann’Venture, built in the summer of 2021, on three core pillars: Fitness, Nutrition, and Wellness.
