As a former high-level swimmer and avid cyclist and runner, fitness is my lifestyle. Six years ago, I exited an expatriate finance career and appreciate the demands placed on busy professionals. I understand the importance of a holistic focus on health, well-being and life balance and look forward to helping you achieve that balance.

Ten years ago, I embarked on a fitness journey with the goal of transforming my lifestyle for the better. I firmly believe that a healthy body leads to a healthy mind. Helping others find happiness and feel confident in themselves is a passion of mine. I believe that feeling good is crucial for success in life. My approach to a healthy lifestyle encompasses more than just weightlifting; it includes stretching, proper warm-up, nutritious eating, and adequate rest and sleep. My goal is to assist others in realizing their full potential through hard work and balance in all aspects of life, reducing the risk of future health issues.

Growing up between North and South America allowed me to diversify my knowledge, values, and to truly appreciate the sense of belonging to a community. My passion for science guided me to my studies in Food Nutrition and Health at The University of British Columbia. Although I have trained in martial arts from a young age, leading an active lifestyle did not come naturally to me. I understand the intimidation of beginning one's fitness journey, the frustration of plateauing on progress; and appreciate the physical and mental wellbeing that comes along with meeting and setting new goals. I believe a comprehensive and dynamic approach is key to creating a consistent exercise habit that will generate long term results. I am here to facilitate a fun and welcoming environment where we can work towards your goals!

Coming from India, the land of diverse culture with deep-rooted spirituality, I have a zealous drive for inculcating health, wellness and spiritual growth into my everyday life. In turn, I find myself always striving for a wholesome balance of these elements. At Anytime Fitness, I am constantly growing in the journey of becoming the best version of myself while looking and feeling good. With an attitude driven by community-building, my goal is to have a positive impact on lives around me by focusing on happiness and wellness as part of who we are. Let’s be happy and fit!

I was an athlete most of my youth, playing competitive sports for 7 years before committing to fitness for over a decade now. Academia diminished my capacity to pursue sports, but I remained committed to fitness, an avocation I became passionate about. This profound passion illuminated an entrepreneurial spirit and long-term aspiration: ownership in the fitness industry. I realized that if I could maintain my dedication to my fitness journey, I could harness that discipline to venture into the world and accomplish any goal I set my mind on. My personal narrative is not an isolated journey, but rather a narrative I aspire to share with a broader audience. The transformative potential of fitness can catalyze positive change in the lives of others, unlocking their fullest potential and further enriching their existential experience. Be it fitness or not, it is my fervent hope that every person uncovers a unique source of empowerment that guides them toward their most authentic selves.

“The greatest wealth is health” is a principle that I strongly believe in and adhere to and hoping to encourage everyone to invest in. My background in the pharmaceutical business gives me a complete understanding of the value of health and wellness. I have a Master's degree in Business Administration that had led me to acquire the necessary skills and understanding to offer and ensure that everyone feels supported and informed on the immense importance of wellness and that their needs are met in a timely and professional manner. Here at Anytime Fitness, I am dedicated and committed to creating a supportive, welcoming, and inclusive environment for those who enter our doors.

Working in the fitness industry for 5+ years gives me a passion for not only achieving my own goals, but supporting others to achieve theirs too. With losing over 50 lbs in my own fitness journey, it makes me happy to see others not only starting their fitness journey, but reaching and surpassing their goals as well. My advice is to always focus on one step forward, because next thing you know you’re 10 steps ahead. Discipline in one area of your life leads to discipline in all areas of your life.

After pursuing a career riding racehorses in England, I became interested in other areas of the sport including rehabilitation after injury. I found the best training to be powerlifting so joined the Anytime Fitness family as a member a few years ago. Since then my love for this gym has only grown, and after moving here end of summer 2023 I’m delighted to have fallen into place as a member of staff here. I’m now able to balance my interest in horse racing and specific athletic fitness while prioritising health and longevity. It’s such a joy to work in a place I’m so passionate about and I hope I can bring something new to the fantastic team and members here!

I’ve spent over 15 years in the health and fitness industry, both as an athlete and in my line work. I’ve been very fortunate to work with people of all ages and athletic backgrounds, including Olympic athletes, varsity teams and new fitness enthusiasts helping them achieve their fitness goals. My career as a Physician and Specialist in Sports Medicine allowed me to work over 10 years as an On-Field Team Physician for the “Pumas” Major League Soccer Team in Mexico City where I learned the importance of injury prevention through proper training and technique. My focus is to motivate, inspire and encourage you to reach and surpass your health and fitness goals!

My enthusiasm for coaching others to discover their full potential in fitness and health, led me to personal training. Intensive coaching for competitive basketball, weight training, boxing and dirt biking taught me that having a coach who pushed me beyond my limits and outside of my comfort zone was necessary for my fitness and personal growth. True enjoyment and achievement are best achieved with a coach who genuinely cares about your progress, keeps you consistent, holds you accountable and will never give up on you, even when 'you don’t feel like it.' We will identify your dreams and I will challenge you to push through your limits to achieve them. My focus will always be on your progress, confidence, energy, health and both mental and physical strength! If you want to have fun while feeling your unstoppable best, then you are in the right place!

I'm Coach Stevi, CPT, CSPFNS, and I have been in the fitness industry for 10+ years. I started my own personal fitness journey in 2006 after struggling with my own health for my entire life. Determined to take control of my life, I did (and continue to do) the self work necessary for change. Self work and taking control of our health and fitness is a harrowing, confusing and often lonely task. This is why I made it my life's work to help others in their own journey. My specialities include functional movement, lifestyle and habit coaching, nutritional work, fat loss, bodybuilding and confidence coaching. Hope to see you out on the gym floor!

My time spent in the healthcare setting has given me the knowledge and expertise to help people live a happy and healthy lifestyle. I believe that nurturing your body through a balanced diet and a suitable exercise regimen is the foundation for overall mental and physical well-being. As someone who had to work from the ground up, I know how difficult this can be to do alone, and I hope I can make it easier for you every step of the way. A sustainable routine is key, but making informed choices is difficult when we are constantly bombarded with contradictory advice from the fitness industry, making it even harder to get started and stay consistent. With a background rooted in anatomy/physiology, bodybuilding, as well as scientific research, you can trust me to provide you with evidence-based information that will cater to your needs, help you to stay on track, and get you to your next level!

I specialize in working with individuals 60 years and up, on strength retention, mobility and improved daily physical function, as well as prevention of disease and cognitive decline caused by physical inactivity.

I’ll motivate, teach and push you toward success, guiding you every step of the way.

I grew up in England, Spain and northern BC, and have always been athletic, driven and competitive in many sports including soccer, football, snowboarding, badminton and even a little ballet. Working as a chef for many years in a high-paced kitchen, the gym was always a place I could go to unwind, de-stress and clear my mind. I fell in love with the gym and especially the community here at Anytime Fitness False Creek, so when I decided to switch careers it just made sense that this would be the new path. I’ve been an ACE certified personal trainer since 2021 and I enjoy working with everyone including people new to the gym and experienced lifters alike.
