10 things you may not know about Alkalign Instructor Pauline:

 

+ I was born and raised in small town outside of Toronto, Canada, eh.

 

+ I have lived in three different countries; Canada, Singapore and the US.

 

+ I love the outdoors: hiking, skiing (snow or water), snowshoeing, running, cycling, gardening, snowmobiling, spelunking, kayaking, canoeing and boating.

 

+ I met my husband on a ski trip, before I learned to ski.

 

+ I worked as a Senior Buyer for Sony Music Canada and met artists such as; Celine Dion, Ricky Martin, Avril Lavigne, even sang Christmas carols with TRAIN.

 

+ I have a cottage in Northern Ontario and I love it for; sundowners, a good book, great people, fantastic food, watersports and fishing at dusk with my boys (including my husband).

 

+ I have over 100+ family members on my mother’s side of the family. It starts with 10 brothers and 5 sisters. I’m happy to do the math with you any time.

 

+ I’m not keen on heights but have done some “cliff jumping” and “pier jumping” into lakes with my boys during our summer trips.

 

+ My favorite place I’ve traveled so far is Thailand and I’d go back without hesitation. I’ve swam with a baby elephant.

 

+ I love music and will often dance while no one’s watching; doing the dishes at home, while clients are in prone or hip tilts seat work, or even in the rain.

It Doesn't Have to Hurt to Work

A NEW, 2-week FREE program we are offering to any and all who want to get off the hamster wheel and try something that 1) works and 2) you will enjoy in the process. No more beating yourself up and spiraling the shame drain thinking you have to do more and be more. We embrace a philosophy that it doesn’t have to hurt to work. The extremes aren’t sustainable. Be kind to yourself. Be kind to your body. Slow, steady and sane wins the race of life. And we are here to help you along the way.

Hi! I’m Erin and my passion in life is helping others feel better by helping them get out of their own head. So much of our relationship to food and fitness is a reflection of deeply rooted beliefs that were imprinted on us at a very early age. These beliefs drive all sorts of behaviors, many of which are not good for our physical or mental health. I know this first-hand. As a former calorie-counting cardio queen I played right into all the toxic messages about what it meant to be “healthy”. That all changed when I hit rock bottom. Since leaving my corporate career in 2009 I have been fully committed to shifting the narrative and helping people experience better physical health by unpacking unhealthy beliefs. My biggest inspiration are my two young daughters, who I hope to raise in a household that openly illuminates and addresses the misinformation instead of adopting it.
