More About the Coach
As an athlete, Kelleigh developed a love for hard work on and off the fencing strip but also learned the hard way that hard work can only take you so far if you don't treat your body right. Faced with knee pain for a number of years and discouraged by a lack of results from conventional physical therapy approaches, it wasn't until she found coaches that were able to teach her to move better that her knee pain began to dissipate.
This experience shaped the way she coaches her clients and athletes: focusing on helping people move better while building power, function, and resilience.
Born and raised in Ottawa, Canada, Kelleigh now lives in Calgary with her husband, Alex. Kelleigh and Alex also spent a major part of their careers in the New York area from 2013-2020 where they worked and trained at elite fencing clubs, learning from experienced coaches and training with nationally- and internationally-competitive fencers. In the meantime, Kelleigh also began her career as a Strength and Conditioning Coach, interning at two world-renowned gyms and earning her ACE, CFSC, and CFAC certifications.
