JoAna’s interest in fitness came later in life, once her daughters were in high school. She discovered outdoor bootcamps and boxing classes where her passion for fitness flourished. JoAna soon began training kids, adults, and older adults, fostering her special interest in senior fitness, noticing what a positive difference it made for members at her gym and to her mother’s life.

She is certified in Fitness Theory, Group Fitness, Weight Lifting, Older Adults, and is currently working on completing her Personal Training Certification. JoAna is excited to join the PARC team and help our residents stay active and healthy through PARC Fit programs and classes.

Outside of work, you’ll find JoAna walking the seawall or riding her bike in Vancouver or Langley, enjoying time with her daughters, and her dogs: a Mastiff and a Saint Bernard.
