Trainer of the Month Coach Fran
Tell us about yourself!
Fran has been apart of the Kersey family for 14 years! Started as a member, bugged Krista and Brandon for a year until she was given the opportunity to join the team and the rest is history! Flash forward to today, Fran is now our studio manager and lead trainer. You can catch her behind the desk most days or rocking a high energy, motivational, good vibe class throughout the week!
What brought you to Kersey’s? I started just wanting to lose weight. I was 18, just entering college, and I was a party girl who didn’t take care of her health. My sister started working out at Kersey’s so I thought I’d try it out! Right after my first class I FELL IN LOVE! I signed up the next day and even though I’ve moved away a few times, I always come back to Kersey’s!

How did you become an instructor? I was never someone who knew what I wanted to do when I grew up, I just knew the conventional path everyone else was doing, was not for me. But right after that first cardio kickboxing class, I saw the way Krista and Brandon made people feel, the community they had built, the energy I felt every time I took a class, the inner strength and confidence I developed...I knew this is what I was meant to do for the rest of my life. I have worked so many different jobs and even went to school for Physiotherapy Assistant, but nothing really lit me up. And if I was expected to do one job for the rest of my life, I wanted it to be something I LOVED. Over the years I’ve worked at 10 different studios across Canada, started up my own personal business with online coaching and courses I’ve created around conquering emotional binge eating and using food and fitness to nurture hormone and gut health. I can genuinely say I feel more passionate and fulfilled in my career choice every day and Kersey Kickbox is a HUGE part of that!
What do you love most about Kersey Kickbox? Its the only workout I legit always look forward to doing! We make cardio FUN! Also, the community is unmatched! As I said I’ve been all around Canada and no other place has has such a strong loving family vibe as Kersey’s!
Five Fran Facts;
1. I’ve never broken a bone.
2. I love my cat more than anything in this world!..Well close call with my Nonna :)
3. I don’t cry when I cut onions.
4. My life motto is “done is better than perfect”.
5. I’m always down to party!
Coach Fran teaches Monday at 7:45 pm, Tuesdays at 9:15 am, and Wednesdays and Fridays at 12 pm.
