Veronika

Movement and sport have been part of Veronika’s life for as long as she can remember. She grew up playing competitive tennis and golf, developing a deep appreciation for discipline, performance, and the mental side of sport. Alongside her athletic career, she spent 10 years as a certified tennis coach, working closely with athletes of all ages on skill development, confidence, and long-term growth - an experience that laid the foundation for her coaching philosophy today. Her path into coaching was shaped not only by athletics, but by personal growth and lived experience. Navigating her own challenges with health, identity, and belonging in the gym helped solidify her belief that movement should be empowering, inclusive, and deeply human. With over a decade of experience in the fitness industry, Veronika knows without question that coaching is her true purpose. Veronika holds a Bachelor of Science in Cell and Molecular Biology and Global Health from the University of Toronto, graduating with high distinction. She is a certified personal trainer and has completed DTS Level 1 Coaching, DTS Barbell, DTS Kettlebell, and FST certifications. Her scientific background, combined with hands-on coaching experience, allows her to approach training with both precision and empathy. Her coaching philosophy is grounded in the belief that movement is a gift and a privilege and should never be taken for granted. Veronika is passionate about helping members understand what their bodies are capable of - physically and mentally - while fostering a positive relationship with training. Inclusion, community, connection, and mental health are central to her approach, and she is deeply committed to educating members on how mindset plays a critical role in long-term well-being and performance. As the owner of the gym, Veronika is especially proud to build this community in the neighbourhood where she grew up. Giving back to the community that shaped her is both an honour and a responsibility she holds close. Outside the gym, you’ll find Veronika on the golf course, playing beach volleyball, or spending time with her cats, Chicken and Ella, and her fiancé, Pav.
