Testimonials
Not to toot our own horn or anything, but here’s what people think of Inclusive Strength.
If you’re in the Vancouver area and want to start working out/want to develop further and adopt a healthier lifestyle in a great and supportive environment, I’d HIGHLY recommend Kate. She’s been incredible at helping me become stronger, healthier, and feel amazing about our bodies in ways I never thought I would. She taught us how to love the gym, and the transformation I personally went through ever since meeting Kate has been life changing and I could not be more grateful to have met her and had the privilege to have her as a personal trainer. She’s a great person in and out of the gym, not to mention a big gamer and obsessed with Japan. Did I mention she does nutrition coaching as well? Contact Kate to get rolling—you won’t regret it!

Working with Kate on my nutritional journey has been an incredibly enlightening and transformative experience. I initially believed I had a solid grasp of my nutritional goals, but Kate’s thought-provoking questions revealed layers I hadn’t considered. She didn’t just take my goals at face value; instead, she delved deep into understanding my lifestyle, preferences, and challenges.
Kate provided a comprehensive analysis that opened my eyes to the nuances of nutrition and the importance of a balanced approach. Her personalized guidance has helped me refine my goals and pursue them in a way that feels both healthy and achievable. Kate’s support has gone beyond just meal prep ideas and advice; she’s empowered me to make informed decisions that align with my long-term health and well-being. I’m truly grateful for the impact she’s had on my life.

Kate has played a very crucial and important part in my life. She was my nutrition coach for over 2 years. During those two years, and as a type 2 diabetic, I was never healthier. On a few occasions, she filled in as my personal trainer and her attention to detail when it comes to exercising the proper way makes her a dual threat. Throw in a HUGE heart with compassion and understanding with her clients makes her a triple threat and I cannot recommend her enough.
During my time with her, she not only took care of me with my nutritional needs, she did the same for my brother (also a diabetic), and my daughter for a couple of years. She was my wife's personal trainer for a few years as well. To sum it up, she's taken care of me and my entire family in one form or another...the only people that mean the absolute most to me and for that she will always be a rockstar to us. LET THIS WOMAN TRAIN YOU NOW. STOP READING THIS AND GO CALL HER.

I have known Kate for over ten years. She has undeniably had a positive influence on my health & fitness journey. She got me off the couch and encouraged me that any movement is good movement. She introduced me to personal training (a thing I thought was only for super fit or rich people), yoga (a class she recommended) and convinced me to join some of her outdoor boot camps!
Kate is professionally trained in the disciplines she coaches in. She’s qualified and she cares. I have a neck injury that really limited my movement, she has given me alternative work outs and ways to strengthen the muscles around my injury.
If you are lucky enough to train with her, you’ll know she is a great person and you’ll want to train with her just to hang out!!
If you are still nervous about training for whatever reason, know that Inclusive Strength is actually inclusive…it’s not just a name! Kate leads by example by sharing her strengths, her struggles and her journey.
I 100% recommend Kate at Inclusive Strength!

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Kate for the past three years, and I can confidently say she has been a transformative influence on my fitness journey. Kate is not just a personal trainer; she’s a comprehensive guide to understanding how the body works, developing strength and muscle, and maintaining overall well-being.
From the very beginning, Kate’s expertise in tailoring workouts to my specific needs was evident. She skillfully balanced building strength and muscle while being exceptionally mindful of any past injuries I had. Her approach not only helped me achieve tangible physical results but also ensured I did so safely.
Beyond the physical aspect of training, Kate’s focus on body positivity has been incredibly empowering. She’s provided invaluable insights into how nutrition plays a crucial role in fitness, and her guidance in this area has significantly improved my approach to eating healthily.
What truly sets Kate apart is her infectious enthusiasm and fun-loving nature. Every session with her is engaging and enjoyable, making the hard work feel less like a chore and more like a rewarding experience. Her ability to make workouts both effective and enjoyable has been a key factor in my continued motivation and progress.
If you’re looking for a personal trainer who combines expertise, empathy, and energy, Kate is your ideal choice. She doesn’t just help you get fit; she helps you understand and embrace a healthier lifestyle.
