With all of our clients, the INITIAL primary focus is to ensure that they are capable of moving through all 3 PLANES OF MOVEMENT safely and pain-free. When we find an asymmetry in these movement patterns, we will focus on understanding
& then addressing these issues.
Therefore allowing the body to continue operating as a whole functional unit, rather than ignoring the warning signs.

INJURY REHABILITATION
The PEAK Fitness Team is well versed in the common structural issues and injuries which tend to hinder our path's to success.
Whether it is an acute sports injury or a re-occurring stress/strain that is preventing you from performing at your best, the PEAK Team is here to help identify and address these problems, prioritizing your ability to perform at your optimum.
A large emphasis is placed on postural correction and maintaining symmetrical movements; this ensures that while we complete your rehabilitation journey, we will minimize the development of any asymmetrical patterns, which can cause further prolonged set-backs.
"Maintaining correct posture is the foundation prior to any movement, any deviance in posture will translate down the chain and will have an affect on the desired movement pattern"

Real Experiences, Stunning Results
OUR TEAM
SIMON NELSON
Simon has always had a strong passion and keen interest in all disciplines of sport and movement. Playing at high level of competitive of Rugby, he is no stranger to putting in the hard work and reaping the benefits of those efforts. Growing up at the base of the Wicklow Mountains, Ireland, it was only natural for him to be into the outdoors, as well as running, climbing, skiing, and adventuring as often as possible.
After completing his Degree in Kinesiology in Ireland {Ba(H) Sports Science}, Simon moved to beautiful Vancouver in 2013. Bringing with him a wealth of knowledge and experience regarding the biomechanics of the human body and how best to manipulate training plans, to create the most efficient and functional training system across a variety of sports and activities.“It’s simple science: the sporting activity and requirements to excel will differ, but the human body operates and responds to training stimuli in the same regard. The fun part is figuring out what specific physiological traits are required for each client's activity, and then we break it down and structure an individualized training plan around these variables.”
Simon’s training stems from the approach of quality over quantity. Learn to do a movement correctly and then we will move forward, with a solid integral foundation. We all begin from Step 1, and together we develop a structured plan to move steadily towards our goals and aspirations. With an extensive knowledge in biomechanics and rehabilitation, Simon finds great interest in assessing our movements and finding the limiting factor that is preventing you from operating at your optimum level. “Human beings are capable of fascinating feats, all we need to do is to train smart and train purposefully. Always remembering that each one of us has our own specific needs, goals and limitations.”
LIAM GRANT

Playing soccer, baseball, boxing, and track and field, with ice hockey as the main focus for 17 years, including Junior B in Mission. He studied Kinesiology at Langara College and became a certified personal trainer in 2017, adding six advanced certifications to support a wide range of client goals. He continues to challenge himself by constantly expanding his knowledge and refining his approach through ongoing education.
He’s known for making strength training approachable and effective for anyone, regardless of age, experience, or background. Age is just a number, and he brings that mindset to every session, helping clients move better, feel stronger, and build lasting confidence. Recently, he took first place in his weight class at a strongman competition, always pushing himself to grow and explore new challenges.

ELAINA BROWNE
From a young age, Elaina always had a passion for sport, movement, and the outdoors. She grew up playing soccer and at age 12 discovered athletics, where her love for health and fitness truly took shape. As an 800m runner, she competed in numerous local and regional events, while also representing her school in basketball, volleyball, and athletics.
At 16, she began training in the gym alongside her dad to support her running performance. That experience sparked a deeper interest in strength training, which followed her to university, where she discovered CrossFit and Olympic weightlifting. This marked the beginning of a career in an industry she has now trained and worked in for over 6 years.
She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Recreation and Sports Management from Ireland and is a qualified personal and group fitness instructor. Throughout her studies, she developed a strong understanding of human movement, performance, and what the body truly needs to be fit, resilient, and healthy. She began working part-time in a CrossFit gym as an apprentice while studying, and after graduating, transitioned into a full-time coaching role alongside 1:1 personal training.
In May 2025, she moved to Vancouver and continued her coaching journey at Peak, where she's able to combine her experience, education, and passion to support a wide range of clients.
Over the past six years in the health and fitness industry, she's developed a deep passion for helping people reach their goals. Whether it's improving athletic performance, recovering from injury, building strength for everyday life, or creating an hour in their day where they can move, feel good, and switch off from everything else. Her goal is to help you build confidence in your body, move better, and enjoy the process along the way.
