Erin O’Rourke

I first found my interest and passion for fitness through sports, primarily basketball and soccer. I played, high level basketball, playing for many competitive summer teams, such as Team Nova Scotia and for the Dalhousie Tigers. Practically living on the court, I was always interested in human movement and how to make the body healthier and stronger. Getting my first real taste of the weight room, while I was an athlete at Dalhousie, I learned what training could do for the body and has never looked back since!

Since then, I graduated with my BSc Kinesiology from Dalhousie and because a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS). I am so passionate about this industry and being a female in this environment. I hope to share my passion and knowledge to others and help them achieve their goals!

Throughout my years of playing sports, I developed a better understanding of how important Strength and Conditioning and fitness is. Whether you are a competitive athlete, an athlete in life or just wanting to learn how to move better, exercise and lifting is such a key piece!

I have worked at several gyms, working with youth athletes, as well as the general population to help clients achieve their goals, whether the goals are performance based, wanting to bring out your inner athlete, or equipping yourself to tackle activities of daily living.
