Brooke grew up exploring the Gulf Island and the outskirts of Nanaimo. She moved down to Victoria in 2015 to pursue her education at Camosuns’ BSFL program where she graduated as a Kinesiologyst in 2020.
Today, she is the owner of Fernwood Movement Academy and believes exercise is not only a means to achieve fitness but can also take on the form of education, healing, and confidence building. Brooke always takes care to start with fundamentals and leaves lots of room for question asking. Her intention is that you leave feeling better than when you walked in and she achieves this through committed assessment, personalised session building, and room for exertion and fun.
Brooke works with everyone from weekend warriors and teen athletes, to those with autoimmune disorders and complex pain clients. She wants to provide a space where everyone who walks through her door is aligned and working towards their own longevity, their health and wellness.
Her sessions are 50-60 mins long and are often a combination of table work and strength and conditioning. She uses Developmental Kinesiology and Kettlebells to help you towards your goals. You can expect fun sessions where movement is the medicine and education is the driving force.
