With a bachelor’s degree in modern dance, Aileen has had a lifelong love for movement. She has never considered herself a sporty person and fondly remembers signing up for the third grade softball team just to get the cute hat. She's a non-typical fitness instructor who loves moving and being outdoors. 

Aileen taught Aquafit classes for several years, including throughout her twin pregnancy. When she became a parent in 2008, she decided to become a certified Manitoba Fitness Council Group Fitness Leader and Pre & Postnatal Fitness Specialist and bring specialized pre/postnatal classes to Winnipeg in 2009. She benefitted from her own programs through her second pregnancy in 2012.  Her classes focus on the joy of movement and creating connections with each other and our families.  

Aileen is also a self-proclaimed Winnipeg booster, who loves our community and is enthusiastic about making it a better place for us all.  Prior to teaching pre/postnatal fitness, she worked and volunteered for several art organizations.

Her love of fitness, community connection and the outdoors drives her desire to help Winnipeg families stay healthy and strong, all while having a good time!

When Ashley became pregnant with her first child health and fitness took on a whole new meaning. Eating well and getting exercise was no longer about losing weight or looking a certain way - it was about being healthy for herself and her baby.  
 
She joined our Prenatal Fitness class in 2013 and hasn't looked back since. Ashley was a participant throughout her first two prenatal and postnatal journeys, and became an instructor after deciding not to go back to her "9 to 5" in the spring of 2017. Her growing list of certifications include Sport Conditioning, Pre and Postnatal Fitness, AquaFitness and Group Cycle. 
 
She loves the community of like-minded women and parents and when asked if she likes her job, she will quickly answer "yes, because I never feel like I'm going to work!"  Her main goals are for her participants to feel comfortable in class and to challenge themselves safely.  
 
When she isn't teaching you can find her busy with her three kids. Ashley's favourite family activities include bike rides and hanging out at The Forks.

Fitness has been an important part of Hailey’s life as long as she can remember. Ever since she was young, she has loved trying new activities to stay active. Hailey grew up dancing, competing and coaching in gymnastics and rock climbing throughout Manitoba with her family. She has played volleyball, ultimate and even tried cross country. It wasn’t until she had her first baby in 2017 and she attended stroller fitness that she found an activity that she truly felt part of a community. After her second child in 2020, and many more Fit Together classes, she knew this was more than a fitness class for her. She wanted to find a way to continue (without necessarily having another baby), which brought her to instructing!

Hailey is certified through Manitoba Fitness Council in sports conditioning and pre- and post-natal, and is looking forward to expanding her training as she moves forward.  

Fit Together not only helped her with her physical health after having kids but also her mental well-being. This was the major driving force behind her perusing a career in fitness. She is motivated to help other moms keep active and healthy through this transitional time in their lives.

Hailey would love to welcome you to her class soon!

Teaches:  Prenatal Yoga, Postnatal Yoga

Léah  has a degree in Family Social Sciences and has been employed in the Social Work field for the last 10 years. Yoga is another one of Leah’s passions. She is a 200 hour RYT and has taken a number of trainings both locally and overseas. Leah has been teaching many styles of yoga since 2017. Certified in Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin yoga, kids yoga and trauma informed yoga; Léah found her passion for perinatal yoga when she was pregnant with her daughter in 2020. This led her to pursue an 85 hour Sacred Birth Pre/Postnatal Yoga certification to deepen her knowledge and ultimately support and guide other mamas throughout their pregnancies and into the postpartum period. Léah is passionate about empowering people to harness their strength, find ease through safe and dynamic movement/ play, understand and apply effective breathwork and mindfulness strategies, prioritize relaxation and reduce physical and mental pain and stress.  Léah is a strong believer in the philosophy of uplifting and supporting other women and is honored to be apart of their journeys into parenthood.

Léah first participated in Fit Together Prenatal Aquafit in 2020 and down the road joined postpartum Stoller Fitness with her second child in 2024. After experiencing some challenges in the early postpartum days, she found that being in a non-judgmental atmosphere, in an outdoor setting with like-minded moms helped her start to feel like herself again. Leah quickly knew she wanted to grow with this community and help women prioritize their health. She also hopes to create the same sense of connection with others that was offered to her.

Leah loves all varieties of movement, especially dance parties with her two young children and dog Luna.  She also enjoys camping, gardening, cooking, biking, swimming and adventuring around Manitoba.
