I have been working out with Vero for 2 1/2 years. I’m in my mid-fifties and she has taken me from lifting 3 lb. weights, to deadlifting 115 lbs.!!! I am amazed at what I have been able to accomplish under her guidance!!
Vero is kind, funny, professional and a wonderful motivator. She truly cares and takes a holistic, and realistic approach to improving strength.
I now look forward to my workouts to see what my body can do!!

I had Vero as the instructor for my personal training certification and she made it so enjoyable. It's great to have an instructor who has real-life experience and doesn't simply regurgitate the textbook. When I'm finally ready to add yoga to my list of credentials, I know who I'll be wanting for an instructor! Thank you Vero!

I 100% recommend Véronique to anyone looking to learn about fitness or train and have a marvellous time. She is so knowledgeable and always looking to learn more-an amazing quality in an instructor!!Questions were more than welcome during the course, it was fun to go deeper into the topics as individuals asked, and she more than willingly gave us… examples and links to support our learning. We got to hear from her extensive experience of over 15 years in the field of personal training; witnessing her incredibly fun personality and obvious passion for what she is doing with her time

Vero is so beautiful in so many ways. The YTT that I took with her this year (2019) exceeded any expectations that I had! Right away she had the 12 of us strangers feeling comfortable and ready for the journey… ahead. The 12 of us became very close during the 8 weeks and I know this is due to the space Vero created. Thank you Choose2be!!!

Veronique truly is a "Health and Fitness Expert" certified in yoga, nutrition, massage and much more. She is very driven and uplifting to be around. I first met her 4 years ago when I was seeking a Mommy and me yoga class for my son and I, she provided a fun and affordable class that this Mama never forgot. I have recently started calling her "Spider Woman."

I am just starting out with Veronique and I couldn't be more excited. She is knowledgeable and passionate about fitness and nutrition. She is also very positive and takes the time to explain whatever you need. Diverse exercises and various routines are planned and that is exactly what I wanted.

Veronique is one of the most inspirational instructors I have ever met. Her energy and drive are one of a kind. From the minute I attended my first outdoor boot camp at VIU I was hooked! I attended every session throughout my program and I really miss her classes to this day. I still incorporate a lot of her workouts into my routine. Choose2be is fantastic!

Veronique is very successful because she believes in herself and her knowledge of the fitness industry. I can only say a lot of good things about her, but what stands out to me most is her sincerity, Humbleness, her knowledge and positive outlook. She is instrumental in helping her clients understand their body and maintaining their maximum physical ability.

You will not be disappointed, Veronique is awesome!
