#THELIVINGROOMYQL
The Living Room helps free you from the noise that has clouded the health and fitness industry for so long.
Our goal is to focus on what the body can achieve NOT what it looks like.
We want to take up space, change the narrative that is on repeat in our minds and in our society and explore positivity and confidence.
Our 12-week coaching program focuses on progress over perfection in our workouts, our nutrition and in our habits. We celebrate the wins and learn from the struggles.
I provide you with the coaching, accountability and support YOU need to finally start living your life.
A little bit about ME!
My name is Melissa, although most people call me Coach Mel. I am a wife, a mom of four (yep, four) and a certified personal trainer.
After having my third baby in 2015 I struggled with body image and self confidence. At this time I fell in love with fitness and how it made me feel. I dove in with both feet and immediately got certified through CanFitPro and have been coaching group fitness classes in Lethbridge, Alberta ever since.
Coaching people and journeying alongside through the highs and lows has become my absolute passion. Nothing fills my cup more than pushing people to believe in themselves and love themselves as much as the world does. Watching people accomplish things they never thought possible and seeing their lives change because of their efforts is such an amazing thing to be a part of. Helping confidence grow, watching self worth shoot up through the ceiling and seeing it snowball through every aspect of their life really fires me up.
Recently I stepped out of group coaching to take my own path and start my own business. The further away I get from the industry the more and more I see how one dimensional and flawed it is.
We are worth so much more than weight loss and a small body. Our lives have so much more value and importance than our weight or dress size. We are more than our "after photos"!
My goal is to help people focus on what their body can do, how it performs, what it needs and how it feels. To help people finally feel confident, free and focused on what REALLY matters.
I believe in my program. I believe in the method. I believe in you. If you are ready to start believing in yourself again, click the button below to schedule a call with me.
