Tan'si!

My name is Michelle Nieviadomy & I am the iskwew (iskwew means woman in Cree) behind Iskwew Health.

I have been in the wellness industry for over 15 years.

Fitness has been a passion.

Iskwew Health has been a dream.

Community has always been my vision.

I am a goal getter, a facilitator, an innovator, a public speaker, a fitness instructor, a community builder & more than anything-a wellness advocate!

These are my guiding principles both personally & professionally:

LOVE. This is why we are here & why we exist! And so this is the message of Iskwew Health: self love.

HUMILITY. I am a student for life. I am committed to constantly learning/growing/evolving to strengthen my knowledge & capacity in the wellness industry.

RESPECT. Respect is what will inspire us to walk well with one another. We welcome all people to Iskwew Health and will respect that everyone has their own story.

TRUTH. There are truths that guide me in my personal and professional life. One of these truths is I belong & you belong in Creator's world!

COURAGE. I honour the courage of every individual who walks in their truth. It takes courage to show up for oneself, whether it is coming through the studio doors for the first time or the 100th time.

HONESTY. I will stand tall in my truth even if my voice shakes & commit to supporting others to stand in theirs.

WISDOM. We all carry wisdom as we have our own personal experiences & teachings. Iskwew Health will foster an environment for the wisdom of the circle.TRUTH. As a Cree woman, I will guide, teach, lead, facilitate with my Indigenous ways of knowing & being.
