My name is Haley and I decided to start Shape180 about 10 years ago when I became interested in writing about fitness and health related topics.
When I was a teenager I struggled with my weight, I went from overweight and uncomfortable, to underweight and weak. I’ve also struggled with anxiety and depression. I decided to learn everything I could about exercise and mental health, and I continue to do so today.
In April 2011 I earned a diploma in Fitness and Health Promotion, and in 2016 I attained a second diploma in Strength and Sport Conditioning. I am a certified level 1 weightlifting coach (NCCP), personal trainer (CSEP), lifeguard (NLS), and yoga instructor (Yogafit). I have worked at various recreation centres, and currently I work as a fitness coordinator for the Canadian Forces Moral and Welfare Services division.
Admittedly, I haven’t attended to my blog in recent years as much as planned. I’m presently sorting through old posts and trying to give the layout a new look, which I find challenging because I don’t have a background in that sort of thing.
If you have any questions or suggestions for post topics, don’t hesitate to reach out.
Thanks for stopping by.
Keep moving!
