Our team

Small steps. Sustained purpose.

Jennifer

Founder - Running Coach - BCBA

I’ve always been a bit of a “try all the things” kind of mover.

I grew up playing sports, doing gymnastics (and eventually coaching it!), playing soccer, rock climbing, and running. I started running as a teenager and somehow kept it going well into my 30s!

Then I became a mom.

And suddenly, movement got a whole lot harder.
Between work, grad school, family life, and trying to take care of myself, somewhere in the mix, my old routines just didn’t fit anymore.
So, naturally, I did what any behaviour analyst would do...

I experimented!!

I started using what I know about behaviour to make movement work in my actual life — making goals smaller, building routines, changing my environment, and finding ways to make movement easier to start and stick with.

And I realized something:
I don’t train just to get stronger. I train so I can keep up with my family.

My family became my WHY.

I want the energy to say YES to the fun stuff — chasing my kids around the playground, biking to the beach, running up hills, or carrying both kids when their little legs are done for the day.
I want to feel strong, energized, and ready to join in on the fun.
And I want my kids to see movement as something that adds to our lives, not something we have to do.

That’s why Movement & Momentum Lab exists.

I want to help you find ways to move that fit into your life.
No perfect schedule. No all-or-nothing plan. No waiting for Monday.

Just small changes that build momentum and make movement part of the life you’re already living.

Why we started Movement & Momentum

We Spend a Lot of Time Sitting.
Only 46.2% of Canadian adults meet the recommended 150 minutes of physical activity each week.
Meanwhile, adults spend an average of 9.3 hours a day sitting — not including sleep.
That’s a lot of sitting.
But moving more doesn’t have to mean training for a marathon or spending hours at the gym.
It can start small:
A walk. A stretch. A few minutes outside. Taking the stairs. A quick strength session. Playing with your kids.
Movement is movement.
And small changes can build into something much bigger
