LACKING DIRECTION?
Losing Traction? Or Getting Lost Altogether?
The human machine is an amazing one; it can produce great results. However, it doesn’t function like any other machine, such as your smartphone.
You are smart, no doubt about that. But mind you, you are much more complex than a phone. So why stubbornly attempt to follow an immutable training plan and expect to perform the program just like a computer does?
The stakes are high when it comes to trail running, ultra running, and functional fitness. Without a personalized approach, you risk stagnation, injury, and the frustration of unmet goals.
In the quest for personal excellence in health, fitness and adventure, too many athletes find themselves at a crossroads, hindered by generic training plans that overlook the individual's unique needs, ambitions, and life circumstances.
The journey to becoming the hero of your own adventure is fraught with challenges, both physical and mental.
You need more than just a training plan; you need a strategy that addresses your holistic well-being, adapts to your evolving goals, and respects your lifestyle and environment.

Testimonials
Ronald Bastien, 55
Vice-president IT Solutions
100 miles trail runner
An exceptional coach whose focus is to help me achieve my objectives by really listening and providing relevant actionable plans, she’s about results, my results.
She’s an amazing
inspiration. You just want to work with her to do great things. You have a BHAG, see it become reality with Hélène.

Beyond the personalized multidisciplinary training plans to achieve my sporting goals, Hélène is always attentive and present.
Her human and caring approach has allowed me to refine my vision in accordance with my values and thus continue to develop both sportingly
and personally.
Aaron Plue, 41
Senior Trader
50k trail runner
My accomplishments from having a coach, beside better performances, are to have a better understanding of myself. From what Hélène has accomplished, you want to charge into battle with her.
She has that personal touch – talks about anything and everything – life in general or training because it is all interrelated.
She is completely invested in our happiness, goals and achievements. What I love about Hélène is that you can tell her your craziest project and she just says ‘Let’s do it!’
Laura Skoblenick, 36
Senior Environmental Officer
Obstacle Course Racer
As a running coach, Hélène gave me a plan to help achieve my goal of being a stronger and faster athlete.
As a human performance coach, she helped me build a repertoire of mental tools to improve my everyday life. I got two for the price of one.
Catherine Désourdy, 37
Coordinator for Real Estate Developer
Trail Runner
At the beginning of this year, I want to thank you for the role you played in my 2023!
Our coaching sessions had an incredibly positive impact on me and helped me move in the right direction.
My biggest takeaway from our sessions was truly realizing and recognizing my value. Not being afraid to speak up when something isn't working. Knowing what I’m worth. This has carried me through the rest of the year, and I’m bringing it with me into 2024!
Corinne Lemay Gaudet, 36
Occupational Therapist
Ultra Trail Runner
By choosing to be coached by a trainer, I wanted to learn but also to have a human experience. What a privilege it was to be coached by Hélène!
Hélène truly instills confidence in our abilities and takes us to new places. She is incredibly generous with her advice and knowledge sharing. Her strong skills as an athlete and coach allow her to adapt effortlessly to our needs and specifics. She is a radiant person who my friends and family often hear about because she is so inspiring!
Ginette Comeau, 82 years old strong
Retired Chief Radiology Technician
As a senior, I started an exercise program with Hélène. What a great decision! I had neck pain, limited arm movement, and my legs didn't bend as well anymore.
My abs lacked firmness, etc. Hélène prepared a program that restored energy and flexibility to my muscles. It was impactful to take the time to establish my goals and understand the effects of hormonal changes and what is within our power to change. Since then, I feel flexible, alert, capable of traveling, and doing the activities I enjoy. I am full of liveliness! And... I keep exercising!
After walking the Camino de Santiago, thanks to Hélène's preparation 10 years ago, this is the next best decision of my life!
Raymond Lafrance
High School Teacher
Talk on School Perseverance
My lasting impression of your talk, which was aimed at high school students, is how deeply they were impacted by the extreme events you participate in. The fact that you graduated from the same school as them left a strong impression and even motivated them.
Some students mentioned it again in class afterward. Your genuine and unpretentious approach encouraged both students and staff to listen and engage. From my perspective, I've long known about your incredible potential and determination. It was truly amazing to see everything you’ve accomplished!
