MaryAnn creates Nutrition talks that audiences can understand.  She can motivate a group to engage in a conversation about how to make positive food choices, and perhaps look a bit differently at the way they feed themselves.   The result is a renewed approach to eating for optimal health and vitality.

When working with individual clients, MaryAnn can create an achievable nutrition action plan that is clear, and goal-centred .  Optimal health is only possible if nutrition is a priority.

I’ve always known that nutrition plays an integral role in allowing my body to train, reach its potential and accelerate recovery. However, I did not know what nutrients my body needed, where to get them or how much my body required. After requesting a week-long food/exercise log from me, MaryAnn not only gave me a simple nutrition plan specific to my needs based on my eating and exercise schedule, but also educated me about which nutrients I require, why I need them and which foods contain them. MaryAnn also took me on a field trip for practical grocery shopping advice. Her thorough analysis, extensive nutritional knowledge and passion for athletics helps me make healthier food choices and get through the day with more energy.

I strongly recommend contacting MaryAnn if you wish to reach that ‘next level’.

MaryAnn implemented a number of positive healthy programs for the staff of Bravado Designs.  She set up a healthy snack delivery option for the company, to ensure that employees have access to fresh, organic fruit for a midday pick-me-up.  She led numerous nutrition seminars both for staff as well as for Bravado clients, and was always available to answer any questions.  In addition, she took a leadership role in encouraging employees to lead active, healthy lives, both by example and by such initiatives as Bravado’s weekly skating club during winter months.  Bravado is a healthier workplace environment, and our staff are better off, because of MaryAnn’s dedication to improving the wellbeing of others.

I am so excited to have MaryAnn as the Toronto Newsgirl’s official club nutritionist.  MaryAnn has brought a lot of Sports Nutrition info to the Newsgirl’s Competitive program and has done various workshops with our Shape Your Life program, our program that teaches boxing to female and Trans survivors of violence.  She is very clear in her delivery, informative and makes nutrition make sense.

A month ago I had my first appointment with a Naturopathic Doctor who, among other things, gave me a “food plan” that, if followed, would help me lose 15 lbs.  Upon reading what I could and could not eat, I was speechless and terrified.  I knew that even if I could follow it, I would never be able to commit long-term to her “suggestions.”  Within a few days, I had the opportunity to discuss my naturopath’s food plan with MaryAnn.  She went through the reasons behind the suggestions on the food plan, and made more room for alternatives that I hadn’t considered.  She turned my fears and anxieties into excitement by explaining what various foods can do (both positive and negative), always providing sensible easy alternatives that I know I can manage. Since beginning my nutrition journey with MaryAnn,  I have tried new foods, new recipes and not once have I tasted something that I didn’t enjoy.  MaryAnn is helping me achieve my goals with her calm, knowledgeable explanations, and her contagious enthusiasm for how making great choices can still mean enjoying food and feeling satisfied–right down to my sweet tooth!  I encourage anyone who wants to eat well, has the determination, but just needs guidance in making healthy choices to contact MaryAnn.  Today.

She captures her audiences interest, speaks eloquently and often includes a story to demonstrate a point. She is a pleasure to listen to and has an impressive arsenal of information to share with others.
