I think the last time I worked out 5 times a week was when I was 16! Then, Body Smarts was introduced to me, and that's when my lifestyle really changed! Not only was I exercising, but I was fuelling my body with healthy foods, that my whole family could eat. There's nothing worse for a mom who is "dieting" and has to make two meals! Body Smarts teaches you on what to look for and what your body needs and is little effort! I lost 12.5 inches and 24 lbs since June.

I signed up for the body smarts program knowing my nutrition needed some accountability and I was hooked from my first cardio blast class. The other mums in the group were so supportive and helpful and i just loved that I was getting my health back all while my kids played.

"Hot Mama is awesome! I started coming with my two boys just for a place to workout where I did not have to get a babysitter or pay someone to watch my kids.  I then came for the Body Smarts program to improve my eating habits and fitness.  This is when I got pregnant with number 3, but that didn't stop me. I continued to workout with Hot Mama throughout my pregnancy and returned for the post-partum initiative and then round 2 of Body Smarts. Hot Mama has something for everyone!  Everyone is understanding and welcoming. I love it!"

Hello, I'm Amanda Shaw, owner/operator of Hot Mama Health & Fitness in Fort St. John. I recently moved here with my husband Nathan and two amazing kids, Enan and Zoey. I've been teaching fitness at various places for almost 10 years and recently made the decision to dive in and open a Hot Mama franchise. I'm so thrilled to have the opportunity to share Hot Mama and all that it is with Fort St. John!

Being a Main Mama for the past 8 months has been life changing for me! I have watched friendships form and a community of Strong Mamas grow! I have been inspired! I have grown as a person! I have learned patience in so many new ways! I have been humbled! And most of all I have learned the true art of being grateful! Grateful for my Mamas! Grateful for my children! Grateful for my amazing husband! And grateful for who I have become! Thank you to everyone who supports me and continues to believe in Hot Mama Fit!
