Blaine has over 22 years' experience as a clinical exercise physiologist. His experiences include managing both private and hospital-based CardioPulmonary Rehab and Wellness facilities.
In the early part of his career, Blaine's adventurous spirit for travel took him to the Far East to China, where he managed a health and fitness center. With his experience, Blaine has concluded that traditional expert role and current methods for health and wellness programming are not successful for the majority of people.
Blaine became a Certified Wellness Coach to provide his expertise in a non-judgmental and non-threatening environment, allowing him to solely focus on his client's goals and assist in creating a roadmap for success. It's Blaine's passion to keep his clients focused and on track to choose the best route to their personal destination of total wellness.
Blaine understands how easy it is to overlook our personal health and wellness. It's a daily challenge of choices to make each and every day. Wellness Coaching captures an important part of each client’s imagination, one that should not slip away.
