If you want a great workout...you will LOVE this class. 

 You don't have to BE an athlete to attend this class, but you  may FEEL like one when you are done!  

I LOVE THIS CLASS!  You will feel like a "big kid" as we will use fitness toys to make our workouts more challenging AND FUN!

My name is Melanie Shatula and I own and operate Breathe Fitness and Hellerwork!  

My fitness journey started in March 1998, when I  purchased "The greatest gym ever...Bodies By Choice!" from two people who became my role models, and inspired me more than they will ever know, Mike and Joyce Woodward.  I wouldn't be where I am today without them.  They built up a great business and taught me the "ins" and the "outs" on bodybuilding and dieting.  

In 1998 I became certified as a strength trainer through Saskatchewan Parks and Recreation. In 1999, I continued my education with the Personal Trainer program out of Mount Royal College in Calgary, AB. I graduated from the program in 2000 with a Certificate in Personal Training.

The same year I competed in bodybuilding. In 2000, I gained my CFC (Certified Fitness Consultant) certification through the Canadian Society of Exercise Physiology.

In 2000, when I competed in the Southern Saskatchewan Bodybuilding Competition in Moose Jaw, I  won first place in the women's class, and also won first place as best female poser!  

In 2001 I became certified by Can Fit Pro as a Nutrition and Wellness Specialist and as a Personal Trainer.
