More About Coach Nicole
Welcome to my page. I have worked with kids as young as 2 all the way to Professional Athletes. I have had my coaching licence for over 18 years in Canada as well as USA. I was a personal trainer by trade in Canada as well as a club coach for Surrey United - a dominant soccer club in British Columbia for the past 20 years. I enjoy coaching kids who otherwise would not have gotten the opportunity to train with a quality coach, as well as training those preparing for College or University. I want to give children the opportunity that I never had.
7 year professional in the W league (Vancouver Whitecaps, Seattle Sounders, Victoria Highlanders
13x medalist at the Women's National Jubilee Tournament - representing BC (3 gold, 7 silver and 3 bronze)
3x University National Champions (2x MVP)
High school Female Athlete of the Year
A lot of my focus can be found in building confidence through footwork and speed. The combination of the two is truly what helps all young athletes excel to the next level. I have a strict program that builds off of the previous sessions where the first few will focus on balance, coordination and core strength, progressing into strength conditioning and finally into positional training. All training programs can be modified to fit clients needs as well as depending on how fast they progress through each stage of training. Most programs run 1-3 months 2x/week is ideal to get maximal results.
creating smart players on the ball is just as important as creating smart players off the ball as we spend most of the game off the ball!

Great coach. Very enthusiastic and engaging, especially with young children. Attention to detail my daughter enjoyed her experience with Coach Nicole.
Michael (CoachUp client)
Excellent session. She really focuses on form and physicality, and is able to come up with solutions to in-game obstacles. Highly recommend!

Life or Death - Merry Low (Testimonial)
I was petrified at the thought of working with a trainer, I seriously thought I was going to be sick the first day I met Nicole. I knew I was in serious trouble though, health wise and that I needed help. Nicole put me at ease in short order. She listened to my concerns and my dreams and came up with a plan that started where I was and brought me to a place where I finally have some freedom. When I started with Nicole I couldn't walk across the room without being severely out of breath. Stairs were impossible. I was so overweight that I didn't even think fitness would help at this point. Now about 2 years later I am down by nearly 250lbs and I am learning to love the freedom of being more fit. I can freely walk up and down the stairs as well as long distances with ease. I ran my first 10km last year in under 2 hour I and plan on doing it again this year!! I have climbed mountains, ran long distances, been more adventurous than I ever was! Nicole changed my life!!

Life Changer - Leanne McLean (Testimonial)
The day I met Nicole McKenzie was the day I planned on cancelling my never used gym membership. I was talked into seeing a trainer for a free session. I planned to do just that... then cancel the membership. Fast forward 7 months.. I've lost 25 pounds and have changed my life. That first meeting with Nicole truly changed the person I am today. I was out of shape and scared that working with a trainer would make me hate the gym even more than I did. Nicole and I spent time discussing what my goal was, what I wanted, and what she could do for me. I did not cancel my membership that day and in fact signed up for a full round of personal training sessions with her. She was amazing to work with. She took my fears and doubts and turned them into fun and results. I actually looked forward to coming to the gym..a place I'd avoided for years. It didn't take long to start to see results and Nicole always knew my limits but also knew where to be firm with me when needed. She taught me about form, how and which muscles to work for results I wanted, stretching and nutrition. It was a great experience and I continue to use the things she has taught me in my workouts today. I miss having her with me counting down my reps! P.S. I recently have been getting into Crossfit and have been lifting like never before. Leann McLean
