What My Clients Are Saying

She will make it fun and will make you work hard at the same time

I was always nervous about joining group classes. Anielyn was the instructor in my first group class and I am really glad I tried it. Her passion and love for training and teaching shines through. Her warm, friendly and cheerful personality boosts you through tough workouts and classes. I always look forward to any class that she teaches, because I know she will make it fun and will make you work hard at the same time. I highly recommend her classes and her training.

Our Pop Pilates class became a gym family where we could support each other in our goals to become fit and happy humans

Anie rocks! I have been in her class for a year and a half and, after every class, I always felt more energized and motivated. Anie’s enthusiasm and energy is boundless, and our Pop Pilates class became a gym family where we could support each other in our goals to become fit and happy humans.

Anie’s supportive and bubbly personality made the workouts enjoyable

After over 4 years and 2 kids I was ready for a change. I joined a gym and wasn’t necessarily looking for support but I’m so glad I did. I met Anie, a personal trainer, whose positive outlook on getting healthy, helped me want to actually use the gym. Each week Anie created workouts that allowed me to see my own progress and ability. Her program was efficient which worked so well for me. She timed my planks and documented my progress. Anie’s supportive and bubbly personality made the workouts enjoyable. She changed my outlook and challenged me to commit to good health. Beyond working out, Anie was also helpful in reminding me that proper nutrition was also necessary to maintain a healthy lifestyle. I would recommend Anie to anyone looking for positive motivation to get healthy.

Through her expertise I was able to gain strength, lose body fat, and also fit into those pair of jeans I love.

I have been working with Anie for 10 months, prior to that I was not doing any physical activity outside of work.
With Anie’s encouragement, knowledge, and her ability to work with physical issues I was experiencing, I was able to overcome what I thought were major limitations.

Through her expertise I was able to gain strength, lose body fat, and also fit into those pair of jeans I love. I especially found useful her knowledge in Pilates, since my core strength was very lacking. I have taken those practices, use them at home and in the gym as well as much as I can.

I had never used a personal trainer prior to this, thinking it would not work or that it was too expensive. After the investment and the results I can safely recommend anyone who is having trouble gaining results, this has been the only way that has pushed me to where I have always wanted to be physically.

And Anie is definitely a means to an end. I recommend her 100% if you are looking for a better and healthier you!

She really helped me to be motivated to get back into the gym

Anie is such an enthusiastic personal trainer; she really helped me to be motivated to get back into the gym, and her positive attitude encouraged me through challenging work outs. Working with Anie, I have seen improvement in my endurance and strength. Thank you Anie!

She truly inspires me to explore my potential

I’ve known Anie for approximately 2 years as our Pop Pilates and Boot Camp Instructor. Anie is so passionate about her job and gives it 100%! She really pushes us in a good way.The hour goes by so quickly as we work up a sweat and she makes exercising so much fun! What makes a really great instructor is that Anie is so knowledgeable and really understands everyone’s abilities and potential. She will adapt & adjust to everyone’s specific need & correct us if we make the wrong pose & recommend a modified version if there are any injuries. Anie is always elevating and teaching us a new routine so we are never bored! She truly inspires me to explore my potential but always mindful to do it in a safe and fun way. Thank you Anie from the bottom of my heart for your dedication and motivating me to feel confident and look great after 50! Cheers!

About

Hi there! My name is Anie (aka @anielates on Instagram). I am the first POP Pilates® Instructor in the GTA, and I am thrilled to bring POP to Toronto and the surrounding areas!

I discovered Pilates over 10 years ago in my first year of university. I had never been very active before, but I loved the burn and the strength that I gained from Pilates. Fast-forward to 2011 when I stumbled upon POP Pilates on YouTube while I was living in Japan. From that point on, POP Pilates became a source of strength and friendship.

POP changed my body, gave me confidence, and helped me connect with new friends in a foreign country. Let me you – the burn and sweaty smiles are a universal language!

When POP Pilates became available as a group fitness class, I wanted to get certified. I was scared though – scared about whether I was strong enough, whether people would like it, whether I would succeed. After years of pondering, I finally mustered the courage to jump in.

Zero regrets.

POP Pilates is not just a workout. It’s a community of people who encourage and empower each other to be the best versions of themselves. I am so honoured to be part of this special group, and I cannot wait to show my community what POP Pilates is all about!

5 Fun Facts

  • I am a professional graphic & web designer (it’s what I studied in University).
  • I have my Standard First Aid with CPR-C certification.
  • I am a proud geek. I love anime, Spiderman, Disney and so much more.
  • I love all things active. When I’m not dancing on that mat, I’m climbing rock walls, flowing into my warrior pose, punching a bag or spinning on a pole.
