About Us

Ashley Pilon is a Saskatoon-based Certified Fitness Instructor specializing in HIIT –

Her interest in fitness began when attending workouts while on maternity leave, where
she was inspired, empowered, and encouraged by her instructor to continue to begin her own personal journey to coaching. She’s never looked back - from participating in countless marathons and fitness challenges, to building a strong knowledge of training styles and creating new and innovative classes for her clients. Ashley has truly established herself as a progressive and tenacious trainer in the Saskatoon wellness community.

For Ashley, establishing a healthy lifestyle transcends cardio or lifting weights, as she
prides herself in aiding others find confidence and happiness in their lives while creating
wellness. Helping people step out of their comfort zone, experience their bodies’
capabilities and seeing dedicated work payoff is what drives her. Ashley gains further
satisfaction by paving the way for younger generations to live a healthy and fit lifestyle
–including her own daughter.

If you want a trainer/coach who believes in living a healthy and balanced lifestyle, while
helping you achieve your personal fitness/wellness goals, Ashley is here to support and energize you – but, not without a little encouragement to lift that heavier weight!

Hi! I'm Leah Arnott and I've been a fitness instructor and personal trainer for 6 years. Growing up, I developed a passion for being active through sports. 

 

After high school, I went to University to become a secondary teacher and have coached volleyball for the past 10 years.

 

While in University, I decided to put my love of fitness and teaching together to gain my personal training and group fitness certificates.  I have taught boot camps, spin, and HIIT classes for the City of Saskatoon, Freedom Fitness, and Community Associations! 

 

I truly believe that everyone is an athlete and enjoy coaching participants new to fitness and veterans alike!

 

Coming to one of my classes, you can expect... a variety of exercises and timings, little downtime, and a lot of fun!

Hello, my name is Kara and I am excited to be joining the RAW Fitness team! 

My fitness journey began about 5 years ago when I was hit with some health issues in my mid-thirties. I started then to focus on a holistic approach to health and healing. Through that journey I have gained passion for fitness, and the incredible things our bodies can do. No matter what age or stage in our lives, I believe our bodies can heal and do amazing things when given the opportunity. I enjoy the energy fitness classes bring to a team and love motivating others to reach their goals. Whether new to class or have been to many classes, I cannot wait to connect and help push you to the next level.

Hey there! I'm James, and I'm thrilled to join this incredible team.

​

My journey in the world of sports started in the pool, where I swam competitively for 13 years, even making waves at the Canada Games. But my love for sports doesn't end there—I'm also a golf enthusiast, and most summer nights you'll find me at Saskatoon Golf and Country Club.

​

Recently, I've taken on a new challenge by diving into triathlon training, embracing the thrill of pushing my limits and discovering new levels of personal growth.

 

With 5 years of coaching experience across various sports under my belt, I've come to appreciate the transformative power of fitness. My coaching philosophy is rooted in a passion for fitness and a

commitment to getting better every day. I'm not just here to guide; I'm here to inspire and motivate you on your journey to physical and mental strength. Join me, and let's embark on this exciting new era of athletic excellence together!

The atmosphere, vibe, leaders and clientele at RAW Fitness were tremendous motivators for me. I was reinvigorated to attend group classes and then to return – with passion – as a RAW Fitness coach.

Health and fitness have been an important part of my life – as I graduated from U of S Kinesiology and then became a personal trainer. After a brief hiatus from coaching, I have enjoyed returning to the gym, motivating others to push that little extra and achieve more.

 

As a working wife and mom of two boys, I have experienced the challenges of meeting personal fitness goals.  I understand the commitment required to be in the gym and dedicate time for oneself.  The focus in my classes is to challenge your norm, find muscles that might have been forgotten and push you to the next level of your fitness and ability.  We are all capable of achieving difficult things. It’s simply more fun to do them together. See you in the gym!

Hi! I'm Jocelyn and l'm so excited to be an instructor at Raw Fitness!

 

Fitness has always been a part of my life, starting as a gymnast through childhood, evolving into a love for working out, & now a passion for group fitness! Like many, my fitness journey came with many body image struggles. But over the past several years I've made the conscious choice to embrace kindness, grace, & acceptance towards my body-values I strive to model for my three kids.

​

I am currently a Fitness Instructor Specialist through Canfit Pro, Barre Intensity trained, & BIIT (barre intensity interval training) trained.

​

I can't wait to see you in the gym! less

Hey! I'm Sydney, your newest RAW coach!

​

I've had the pleasure of getting to know Ashley through Silverwood Community Association (both as a participant and instructor) and was excited when she asked if I would join her team.  When I'm not busy with my 3 kids, you'll most likely find me at a gym. I teach a wide variety of classes, including kids sports fundamentals, family bootcamp, adult classes, and pre/post natal classes. I love seeing individuals of all ages and fitness levels find ways they enjoy being active, and get stronger and more confident because of it.  The community that is created when individuals work hard together is one of my favourite parts of coaching, and I'm looking forward to being a part of yours!
