Tae Shim

I'm an NSCA-certified personal trainer with a degree in public health (BHSc). I'm completing an MSc in Kinesiology at the University of British Columbia (UBC) (4.0 GPA), researching exercise and workplace mental health. I coordinate Mind in Motion, UBC's exercise program for students with depressive symptoms, and provide personal training at WEWELL. I've worked with older adults, athletes, and people with varied health needs, both in person and virtually. I help clients find a starting point that feels manageable, understand each exercise, and build on their progress. I've developed evidence-informed plans around their goals and routines, with app-based support between sessions. I bring an understanding of how work, stress, and mental wellbeing shape a person's relationship with exercise.
