Julie Solbak

BSCKIN, CKA, CEO & CO-Owner

 

Julie graduated from Dalhousie University with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology, and that foundation has shaped everything about how Just Fit and Just Move were built.

Her greatest passion is working with seniors and anyone navigating significantly limited mobility. As the team grows and more trainers take on more, Julie is intentional about where she shows up: with the clients who need a highly skilled, knowledgeable approach the most. That includes people living with Parkinson’s disease. Julie introduced the Parkinson’s program at Just Fit personally, and it’s a cause close to her heart.
She’ll be the first to tell you she was never an athlete. She spent years working out in gyms where she didn’t quite feel like she belonged, not knowing what to do, not feeling seen. That experience became the reason she built something different. Just Fit and Just Move were created for exactly that person: the one who walks through the door unsure, maybe a little nervous, wondering if this place is really for them. It is.

Feeling seen matters here. It’s why names matter here. Julie has made it a priority from day one, and it’s woven into everything the whole team does.

Outside the gym, you’ll find her with her nose in a book, surrounded by animals, or spending time with her three almost-grown kids. She’s an introvert at heart, but walk into Just Fit and you’d never know it. This place is home, and it shows.

Chelsea P

General Manager, Personal Trainer & Instructor

Chelsea has always been drawn to health and wellness, and over the years that passion has grown into a career built around helping people build habits that actually stick. As our General Manager, she’s the person who keeps things running behind the scenes, and she does it with the kind of attention to detail that makes everything look effortless.

She holds a Bachelor of Arts and brings that same thoughtful, big-picture thinking into her work with clients. Chelsea specializes in habit-based training and functional strength, with a focus on helping people build the kind of fitness that supports the life they want to live. Whether that means keeping up with grandkids, hiking a trail, or just feeling strong doing everyday things, she gets it.

She teaches group training classes, works one-on-one with personal training clients, and leads yoga. She’s also the person our team leans on when something needs to get sorted, so if you’ve ever had a question handled quickly and quietly, there’s a good chance Chelsea was behind it.

Reliable, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in your progress.

Sarah T

Community & Content CreatOR, Group Fitness Instructor, Personal Trainer

Sarah started where a lot of great fitness stories do: on a dance floor. That background gave her a deep appreciation for how the body moves, and it’s shaped everything about how she teaches.

Group training is where Sarah shines. She was instrumental in launching our small group training program here, and if you’ve ever been in one of her classes, you know exactly why. Her laugh fills the room before she does, and her energy has a way of making hard work feel like something you actually want to show up for.

She recently deepened her training approach through the Parisi methodology, a proven performance training system built around speed, strength, and movement quality. Sarah took that framework and made it her own, weaving functional strength, core work, and mobility into every class she teaches. The goal is always the same: helping you move better so you can do more of what you love.

Beyond the gym, you’ll find her out on a hiking trail, exploring somewhere new, or spending time with family and friends. She brings that same adventurous spirit into everything she does, including her work as the person behind our content and community online.

Tammy

Group Fitness Instructor, Personal Trainer, Registered Holistic Nutritionist

Tammy has been leading strength classes at Just Fit for years, and if you’ve ever been in one, you know she brings something a little extra every single time. Fun is non-negotiable in Tammy’s classes, and that energy keeps people coming back.

She teaches group fitness and small group training in the studio, works one-on-one with personal training clients, and is a Registered Holistic Nutritionist. That last piece is where things get interesting.

Movement gets you a long way. But sometimes, if progress feels slower than it should, the missing piece is what’s happening outside the gym. Tammy works with clients to adjust and build on their nutrition habits in a way that’s realistic and sustainable, helping them get results that stick. And here’s something worth knowing: if your benefits plan includes naturopathic coverage, Tammy’s nutrition services may be covered. It’s always worth a quick check with your provider.

She also has a particular focus on women navigating perimenopause and menopause. It’s an area where the right combination of movement and nutrition can make a real difference, and Tammy brings both.

Kristen M.

Client success manager, group fitness instructor, personal trainer

Kristen came to fitness by way of aerial dance, a passion that lit her up until COVID brought it to a halt. Like so many of us, she found herself pivoting, and it was during that time that she discovered strength training. What started as something to fill the gap became something she couldn’t stop thinking about.

By trade, Kristen is a Red Seal certified welder, so she knows a thing or two about precision, patience, and putting in the work. That same mindset carries right into how she trains.

Her specialty is mobility, and she has a particular gift for working with clients who are navigating physical limitations. Whether you’re recovering, rebuilding, or just trying to move better through your day, Kristen meets you exactly where you are. She teaches group classes in the studio, works one-on-one with personal training clients, and is part of our team in the office too, so chances are, she already knows your name.

Encouraging, upbeat, and genuinely excited to be in the room with you. That’s Kristen.
