YOGA
"Becca, I just want you to know how much I value you in my life. You have helped me emotionally, spiritually and physically….. my inner monologue was telling me I “suck” at Yoga today… you came by, smiled, winked and said “I like your top”!!.. You’re the best!! Beautiful inside and out!! I haven’t been myself lately and certainly have felt as if my inner light has dimmed….but, I look at your smiling face and I instantly feel better…thank you!!"

"As your average male in his 20’s not too long ago I would have laughed at the idea of yoga. But one day with Greg and Becca’s encouragement I decided to give it a shot. Since then I have been a regular participant and the benefits have been phenomenal. My posture and flexibility are greatly improving. Becca is an amazing teacher and always keeps the class’s fun and challenging."
-Jeff D.
"Wow - you continue to amaze me - I have been attending your classes for 6 months and tonight at another "1st class of the session" you bring in simple and yet new poses. You taught to your novice students, challenged your veterans and while the poses were new for me - I didn't even have to look up. You drew such a detailed map with your voice that I felt that I was in a completely safe place with you in the driver's seat. And, I particularly needed to hear your voice tonight. I needed to be away from my life, to be in a healthy, safe place and being able to follow the harmonies of your guidance and the cadence of your voice and singing, you helped me to heal, just a little bit. But hey, every little bit counts - right! Thanks again Becca - you have been a gift from God to me."
-Deb P.
"Hey Becca, you probably hear this all the time, but I still wanted to tell you what an amazing class you hold. I went to a few other places with a girlfriend of mine and NONE of them come close to how awesome yours are, you definitely are the complete package. Love it! ..."
-Heidi
"Just wanted to say how awesome it is to be back in class. Your light is as bright as ever and it is very rewarding to be open and receive such positive yoga experiences through a wonderful guide and mentor. "

What a fabulous experience this morning was with Kari. I asked her to draw me a map and she took us all on the most wonderful journey. Not only did I receive a map but she described "each leaf on every tree" as we passed. There was no confusion as to what exactly we were to do or what the intention of each move was. She moved us through an amazing amount of poses with such natural transitions that it seemed that they were all originally intended to flow together. The practice was so interesting and unexpected. Honestly - the best ever!!
-Deb P.
Thanks Becca for two wonderful classes. You are a gifted teacher and very committed to the life of yoga.. it shows.

Hello there Miss Becca - I just could not leave without saying so long to someone who has inspired and changed my life so much both personally and through yoga! My biggest regret is that I was not able to make it back to finish up my last few classes and say goodbye to you in person. HOWEVER I do want you to know that you will always be remembered for helping me through a very difficult time in my life and for showing me a "better way" of managing my anxiety / fears and life in general when it gets tough - which it always does at one time or another. Through yoga and meditation I really believe that I am on the path to learning to "calm the mind and relax the body" and I can't believe what a difference it has made. I would also like to thank you so much for our "psychotherapy sessions" that I am sure helped my mind as much as the physical massages helped my aching muscles!! Sometimes just talking it out helps you see things so much clearer. Will think of you every time I am in a yoga class - which I am hoping will be often - Nelson is full of "yogies" so hopefully I will find a teacher as amazing as you!!!

PERSONAL TRAINING
"Like many people with a busy life and sometimes unpredictable schedule I treasure the familiarity and time I get to spend at Divine Health. Working with Greg or any of the other trainers has been nothing short of amazing. I have learned so much of what I am capable of and how hard work, dedication and positive thought can change your life. Working with Greg I have learned so much that will benefit me forever. His workouts are intense and always provide that extra push when I need it most. His training and expertise continues to provide me with the tools and experience to help me reach my fitness goals. Make no mistake, when you work with him be prepared to be pushed harder then you have in your life, but you will walk away from that session knowing that it was probably the best workout you have ever had... until the next one! Not only do I have the best trainer anywhere I have also gained a friend and mentor."
-Jeff D.
"I love Angela she is such an inspiration to me. She is great at motivating and believing in me. She knows exactly what exercise is best for me. She has a quiet gentle spirit and a way of making you want to do better. If it wasn't for her I still would not be riding a bicycle. I have had very little experience on a bike in my life time, every time I would try I would fall and wouldn't get on again. My husband has tried through out the years to get me on one but I always panic and refuse. Angela supported me and did not make fun of me. she brought her son's bike in for me to try. Her patience and confidence in me won over any fear. I'm enjoying riding now and I owe it to her. I wish her continued success in her chosen career."
God Bless Love

"...having lost over 120 lbs. now, I do know that diet and exercise do go hand in hand and the results I have been seeing are proof of that. I feel better, my blood pressure and cholesterol are down, I can do more things in my daily life without huffing and puffing and I feel good about myself, especially when I have to go out and buy smaller clothes. Having the support of a personal trainer is well worth it as you do not feel you are alone - you have the support from an expert."
- Joan M.
"Finding Divine Health to help me on my journey to get healthier and stronger was absolutely "meant to be". They offer me just the right mix of humour, motivation, support, and that all important push to reach for my best efforts. Their desire to make the sessions fresh and challenging keeps me working hard and feeling proud of my improving abilities. Their expertise has enlightened me to the multitude of exercises I would never have imagined on my own. I have learned so much and feel so excited to be healthier and stronger. I can't wait to see where we go next!
- Lisa Z.
"I have been training with Greg for eight months now. I love our sessions together. He keeps inventing new exercises to do, new things to try out. He is not a drill camp drill sergeant, screaming and flogging for just one more rep - he is a dedicated and quiet man, who still urges me on. He gets my best effort every time, because I know he is giving me all his attention. It is that one on one devoted consideration that I absolutely love. Workouts are challenging yet fun. Yes, fun! Just try not to laugh when you are 'rowing' yourself across the floor."
- Jennifer H.
"Greg and Divine Health have turned out to be the missing link in my life. I get to work out one on one with a qualified, certified and energetic personal trainer who has my best interests at heart. I get a challenging routine that is tailored to my individual goals and needs. I get to work out in a fully functional and fully equipped environment. I get sound nutritional advice that help me maintain a good healthy diet. I get someone that will challenge me when I need to be challenged. I have someone that can schedule my workouts that work with my schedule. I have one of the best personal trainers in greater Edmonton!"
- David P.
"I look forward to my workouts and the camaraderie we have established. I am tired after the workouts definitely, but a 'good' tired. His innate ability to know when to push you to do more or when to lessen the reps or lighten the load makes the training enjoyable. He constantly encourages and praises your efforts. In this day and age when negativity runs rampant, positives are greatly appreciated."
- Merry D.
“Working with Angela has given me more confidence in myself because I feel better about the way I not only look, but how I am able to handle the stresses in my life. My decision to work with her has been one of the best things I have done for myself in a long time. I consider Angela and Divine Health a great inspirational place to spend my time at.”

MASSAGE
"I had another wonderful massage with Catherine today and I’ve booked in again for December. Feel better already!!"
-Nicola G.
"Several years ago I had he misfortune of suffering a substantive lower back injury which was diagnosed as Sciatica. After months of physiotherapy and chiropractic care, which failed to heal in any way, I took some good advice and tried massage therapy with Becca, initially being somewhat skeptical that it would help. That turned out to be one of the best decisions that I have made, as not only did I begin to quickly notice physical improvement and healing, but Becca was able to teach me why this problem was occurring and what changes I needed to make in order to correct this condition.
I have been completely pain-free since that time, but I continue to see Becca monthly as part of a 'maintenance' schedule. Her massage therapy sessions are invaluable and in them, I have learned more about health, nutrition and quality of life than I could have by any book. Becca's treatment style, knowledge, and passion for healthy living are second to none. I look forward to her sessions, and hope to do so for many more years".

Ayurveda (Lifestyle and Nutrition)
"Back in March 2009, I was diagnosis with diabetes type 2. I was already a massage client of Becca's and so I came to see her for Ayuvedic Wellness and Health. With some small changes to my eating habits and daily routine, I started to see great changes. My original # for my Glucose was 8.1 mmol/l and after 3 months they went down to 5.1 mmol/l and my AIC was 7% and when down to 6.2% ( normal range is between 4.3-6.1). I also lost 18 lbs . The thing about an Ayurvedic life style is balance of mind and body. It helps you look at foods in a different way and allows for leeway if you don't have a great day. Normally I would give up if I had a bad day, but now I just step back and look where I went wrong and continue my journey to health. It shows me that with lots of little changes come big health benefits.
Thank you to Becca."

"Ayurveda, the 5,000 year old sister science to yoga has advanced my wellness to reach another level. Practicing Ayurveda has encircled me in a holistic balance of my lifestyle for my diet, exercise, and my relationship with who I am. Ayurveda complements who I am, it does not try to change me but rather through my awareness of balance Ayurveda empowers me as I go down my life’s path."
