Karine Lessard

Highly invested in the field of fitness for over 25 years, I am passionate about sports and a fervent advocate for health and well-being.

My professional journey reflects my passion for helping people achieve their health and fitness goals. As a retired police officer from the Montreal City Police Department, having worked for 12 years in the division of child crime investigations, I can assure you that the desire to help others, listening, empathy, professionalism, and integrity are integral parts of my qualities and skills. I firmly believe that I have contributed to making a difference in the well-being of many people both physically and psychologically, and I continue on this path.

As a certified fitness instructor and personal trainer, I acquired varied expertise in designing and conducting dynamic and motivating fitness classes, covering a wide range of activities such as indoor cycling, military cardio, aerobic dance, cardio step, cardio kickboxing, muscular endurance, etc. Over the years, I have also discovered a passion for Yoga, which led me to obtain my certification as a teacher, recognized by Yoga Alliance. My philosophy is based on the belief that the pursuit of physical and mental well-being is not limited to simple training but constitutes a truly motivating and energizing experience as long as we find what is good for us. My teaching approach aims to create an inclusive and stimulating environment where everyone, regardless of their fitness level, feels encouraged to go beyond their limiting beliefs to discover the pleasure of physical effort at its right intensity and all the physical and psychological benefits.

I have a great capacity for adaptation, which allows me, for example, to quickly modify content according to the level and abilities of the participants as well as the environment.

 My commitment to excellence in the field of fitness and Yoga is reinforced by my continuous participation in trainings and workshops aimed at updating my knowledge and integrating the latest advances in this beautiful Universe of global health.
