Hi sweet friend...welcome to BBM.

The Who

I’m Michelle, your Certified Personal Trainer that you can take anywhere and have at anytime. I became certified at the age of seventeen and graduated university with a Bachelors of Psychology. I am deeply passionate for movement and the mind. While I was never a class goer myself, I loved being at home and creating my own playlists and workouts that left me feeling self-empowered and self-aware. To me, movement is a way to learn about yourself, inside and out, and so I love teaching you new workouts and movements that are ever changing, challenging, and chiseling. After 15 years in the industry, I still get excited to do so.

The Why

When I move, I believe that I get to access another part of me. It is so beautifully selfish - I love it. The music with the sequences of the exercises feels flowing, freeing and fun. It is so important to me that I deliver this art of exercise to you in a way that is easy and energetic, while creating a mindful foundation and re-connection to yourself along the way. Videos range  I am deeply grateful to be on this journey with you and hope you make the time to invest in yourself.

The What

My approach to movement is to steady the mind in order to understand our thoughts (both your mental and physical strengths and weaknesses) and to get to know ourselves better. By doing so, you will become stronger through every exercise and stretch by using the powerful tools of breath, visualization and dialogue - the unique pillars of the BootyByMich method.

The Where

The signature BBM class, The A.S.S CLASS, was created in 2017 in Vancouver, Canada. Since then, it has become immensely popular with classes now having been taught across Canada and in the United States. High demand for the class led me to create the BBM online platform, allowing my worldwide audience to be able to have unlimited access to movement at their fingertips. I am now living in New York City continuing to build this community from my home to yours!

The When

Now. But in all seriousness, the best part about BBM is that the platform is built to be seamlessly integrated into your day, no matter how busy you are. Videos range from 5 minutes to 60 minutes and so it is the perfect combination of convenience, accessibility, and fun.

I hope you fall in love with yourself again and again through the weekly personal journal prompts, carefully-crafted playlists, livestreams, and my curated weekly workout schedules.

“Everything physical is just a bonus”

You’re doing so well.

The. A.S.S Class
With a primary focus on the lower body, this class will work on sculpting and lengthening your legs, hamstrings and thighs, all while defining your core and building that BOOTY.

This class is a combination of bodyweight exercises with use of resistance bands and bodyweight exercises structured to lengthen, tone and tighten. We begin with a flow, to connect and ground mind, breath, while setting and maintaining your personal intention, ensuring you experience the full benefit of each and every movement- leaving you feeling refreshed, lengthened, strong and solid, both in mind and body.

Butter
All levels.

The foundation of sequences are based on deep stretches targeting all of the juicy points in the body… think hips, low back, hamstrings, and upper body. Stretches are flowed together based on intuitive movement, breath, slow music and visualization.

“Butter” is designed to leave you feeling lengthened, relaxed, and grounded. We move at a slow pace, inviting you to get lost in the exploration of your body. Incorporate this class for a post-run stretch, an evening unwind, or a morning refresh.

No equipment needed.

Chill & Chisel
All levels.

C&C is full body, focusing on flexibility and elongation of muscles using visualization and breath as groundwork. The movements, heavily curated to music and integrating deep core chiseling exercises, leave you feeling stronger and relaxed (mentally and physically). You will get to strengthen and lengthen your entire body, defining your core at the same time… the best of both worlds.

This is the perfect class if you want to add more stretch, elongation, and core strength on a recovery day or morning/evening session.

Music is a foundational component, listen to a BBM playlist or put on music you love.

No equipment needed.

Full Body
All levels.

The foundation of this workout begins with a grounding exercise either with a guided intuitive flow or seated breath.

The goal is to move with Intention, using visualization and breath in order to create maximum connection of the mind and body. The class gives you the inner and outer results you strive to achieve.

Cardio can be subbed out.
Higher repetitions, longer holds for length, quick short busts for strength and cardio.
Equipment often used, but optional: ankle weights (may also be used as hand weights) resistance bands, pilates balls, light 2-3 lbs dumbbells, or weight of your choice.
Please wear shoes if needed!
