Chelsea is the owner and Head Coach at Crew Training. Her passion for helping others realize their full fitness potential has led her to take the leap and open a fitness studio where all our welcome and all will be encouraged to become the best, strongest versions of themselves. When Chelsea left the small town of Maple Creek (where she grew up), she ventured off to Lethbridge College to pursue her Diploma in Exercise Science. 14 years later, Chelsea continues to be inspired by those that she has the opportunity to coach and train, and is ecstatic to have the opportunity to lead the way in creating a supportive, effective and fun community within the CREW Training Vault. One thing she wants everyone to know, is you CAN do it, and you do NOT have to be in 'shape' to join a fitness community, like CREW. Take the hardest step, and walk through those doors - we got you from there! See you soon!

Kara was born and raised in Medicine Hat, and has always had a love of fitness. After figure skating until she was 13, she dabbled in other types of fitness, but wasn’t until she had her first born in her 20’s that she fell in love with group exercise. A few years later, she found Crew and hasn’t looked back since. After being a Crew member for over 300 classes, she knew that she had a calling to be a coach and inspire to discover what they are capable of, similar to the experience she has had herself. Kara is a now a Certified Personal Trainer here at Crew, and if she’s not coaching you will find her sweating it out alongside the 5 or 6am Crews; most likely lifting as heavy as she can, with perfect form of course! Kara is a wonderful addition to the Crew Coaching Team and we hope you get a chance to try out one of her workouts soon!

My love of fitness started in the days of the grapevine and Hi-Low impact aerobics, I was never a team sports player, but dabbled in gymnastics. I find running and lifting weights a great way to maintain my mental and physical health. The challenge of learning a new routine and picking up a heavier weight got me interested in leading classes in the early 2000's. I have trained in many fitness areas including aquasize, spin, kick boxing and kettle bells. I currently hold my AFCLA Group Fitness Certification and completed the Resistance Training certification two years ago. In 2018 I completed my Masters in Leadership through the Royal Roads University. My love of running has led to participating in fun runs and obstacle races, sometimes even talking my family into joining me (they don't let me plan the family activities anymore). I love the variety of the Crew classes and the sense of community both in the studio and with other local businesses. When I am not at the gym I work as a manager in a non-profit agency and relax by walking my two dogs and hanging with my family.
I was first introduced to group fitness in my early 20s. I joined a group fitness gym and over the years, started to see my body get stronger and my confidence grow along with it. After my kids were born, I was encouraged by a friend and fitness leader, to get certified and start teaching classes. In 2015 I got my Group Fitness Certification through the AFLCA. In 2016 I also got my Pre and Postnatal Fitness Certification through Fit4Two. I started teaching both Bootcamp and MomFit classes and my love for fitness kept growing. In 2019 I also became Certified in Resistance Training through the AFLCA. I love participating in classes as much as I love coaching them. You can often find me participating in classes when I am not teaching. I look forward to continuing to learn and grow in this industry and expand my knowledge to become a well rounded leader. I look forward to coaching you in class!
