Christa Heyne

Personal Trainer/Instructor/Co-owner

I am an entrepreneur, wife and mother of two boys.
Before settling down to raise our family, I sailed the seven seas on tall ships until we moved back home to Nova Scotia.
We now live in Canada's ocean playground in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. 

I studied at Acadia University and received my B.Sc. in Biology and Psychology. 

I turned my passion for fitness into a career and now a calling by owning my own fitness facility.

My mission is to help people of all shapes and sizes live a pain free life (emotional and physical) and enjoy their bionic bodies.

I am a certified Personal Training Specialist, YogaFit instructor and Life Coach. 

I have also earned certificates in Zumba, Boot Camp and Corrective Posture. 

I am completing Canadian Fitness Professional certificates in Healthy Eating & Weight Loss and Fascia & Movement.

NEVER LOSE SIGHT OF YOUR DREAMS! 

About Christa

Karen Mills

Personal Trainer/Co-owner

I started MY journey over 20 years ago. I needed that mental boost, that release from day to day as well as the need for accomplishment and self-worth. It all began at my local gym in my 30’s ... it expanded to not just a daily routine but to actual training and then competing. 

It's not a quick trip - it's a journey of a thousand steps that starts with just ONE. And I am here to take that first step (of many ) WITH you.


About Karen

Erin Doggett

Office Administrator

After convincing my fiancé to try out NS (he turned out to be more of a Maritimer than most), we moved back from Alberta. Having previously worked and lived in Lunenburg myself – I knew it was going to be our home base!

Working with people and children has always been my passion. Having the opportunity to work in a positive, educational and supportive environment here at Blue Zone Wellness and Fitness Centre has given me the confidence to work on my health, happiness and fitness. I hope that I can inspire and educate others about maintaining a positive and healthy lifestyle as I begin my own personal journey.  

Hey! If I can do it… YOU can too!

Oh and by the way - I am a Certified Interior Decorator! So, keep an eye out for some small changes around the gym

Judy Rawdon

Instructor

Judy, our Funky Flow Yoga Teacher, joins us from down the road at the beautiful Boscawen Inn. She and her lovely husband, Jon, arrived from South Africa to buy the Inn 8 years ago. 

Upon arrival, they were told they would "always be CFAs." Judy corrected this, explaining that they were CAs (Chartered Accountants) in the process of becoming CPAs, not CFAs... 

After much back and forth, Judy grew to understand the term "Come From Away." But she has never felt more at home than in Lunenburg, as a welcome part of this wonderful town. 

Before marrying Jon, Judy studied Reiki in Bermuda, also practicing yoga with a personal coach in preparation for teacher's training. But this involved going off-island, and Jon, strangely, didn't agree to a yoga retreat as part of their around-the-world honeymoon...

Fifteen years, many adventures, multiple countries and two children later, Lisa Avramenko of Happy Fit, Lunenburg, offered a 10-month teacher's training. Judy jumped on board, feeling that, at the very least, it would make her "a better person." But the love she felt while teaching was so addictive, she wanted to share it with everyone.  

Judy enjoys bringing her Funky Flow version of yoga to Blue Zone. She is loving the vibe of Christa and everyone there.

Judy's motto, "Be Amazing - Just For Today!" pushes her to be the best she can be in the moment. She can't wait to share that energy with you.

Matt Kerr

Instructor/Personal Trainer

I am a certified Personal Trainer and Group Exercise Instructor through the National Fitness Leadership Association of Canada.  

I have been working 1 on 1 with clients as well as developing original group programming for the last 5 years.

My training philosophy is to keep things simple, safe, efficient and effective. There is no secret to getting fit, it just takes some targeted consistency.

When I'm not in the gym, I like to cook, sing, snowboard and play all kinds of sports. I am also the proud papa of a 4 year old fluffy white puppy named Bali.

If you're looking for some guidance on your wellness journey, look no further.
