JESSICA CRAWFORD


Most mornings - at 6am, you will find me dancing on a bike- in a dark room, surrounded by the most incredible – AMAZING people. The energy created in this space feels like PURE magic- I am so inspired by the commitment, hard work and sweaty smiles that wake up to KICK ASS while the world is still sleeping.
​
I fell in love with fitness in 2004. In November 2004 I completed my BCRPA certification in Personal Training and finished my BCPRA Group Fitness Certification in 2005 - I was hooked. I couldn’t wait to make my mark in the fitness industry - attending as many conferences, travelling as far as I could to learn from the best of the best in the fitness industry.

RHONDA VAN DER VEER
I have always loved working with people—it’s at the heart of everything I’ve done. As a personal trainer, group fitness instructor, and certified teacher in yoga, barre, pilates, spin, high-performance training, and trigger point release, I’ve spent decades building strong connections that inspire my clients to reach their goals. I’m proud of the diverse and loyal community I’ve developed, and even prouder of their determination and success.
​
That same passion for connection carries into my real estate career. Whether it’s helping you find the right home or working with you on the foundation of your own body, I approach every goal with commitment, energy, and care. I love the South Okanagan—the adventures it offers, the opportunities it creates, and the people who make it such a special place to live.

MEGAN MCKAY HALL
I believe in the power of movement.
Whether a sweaty session in the dark on a bike, lifting slow and heavy in the studio or powerful hits to a heavy bag I want you to feel powerful and strong in your body at whatever stage of your fitness journey.
Throwing away the old myth of 'no pain, no gain' and embracing movement that feels challenging and supportive at any age and ability, I want to see you fall as much in love with moving your body as I am helping you get there.
In addition to coaching cycle and group fitness classes I am extremely proud to be PURE's resident boxing coach, encouraging men and women of all ages and abilities to discover the comprehensive sport that is western boxing. Coaching clients less on combat and more on the all-encompassing technique and strategy of the sport, you will feel empowered and challenged after a few rounds on the pads - a good sweat guaranteed!


BRANDI JOHNSTONE
Over the years I've experienced firsthand how beneficial the gym is! Going through my own transformation and learning how to live a well-balanced lifestyle has lit a spark inside me!
I want to help others feel strong, healthy, confident and most importantly happy both in the gym and outside of the gym. It doesn't matter where you are in your fitness journey, I focus on creating a program that will push you to reach your full potential and create lasting changes!
My favourite thing about training is seeing how clients transform both physically and mentally when they incorporate exercise into their lifestyle, as that is what has helped me become the person I am today! When I'm not training you can bet that I'm soaking up the sun or exploring the mountains.
MARISA LEFRANC
After completing 5 years studying at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, I graduated with my bachelor’s in Kinesiology & Exercise Sciences. My studies had a heavy emphasis on the physiological mechanisms influencing physical activity with a focus on the impacts of disuse and ageing; specifically, I studied how exercise can be used as a therapy to mitigate these effects to improve quality of life.
My goal as a trainer is to provide evidence based & informed programming for clients to achieve their health and fitness goals. I am interested in working with clients of all fitness levels, particularly those who are looking to train for longevity as well as improve their mobility, strength, and quality of life. In my spare time you can find me treasure hunting at the thrift store, searching for the best sandwich and coffee shops, and teaching spin.
