Louise Green

Louise Green is a celebrated Author, Influencer and Award-Winning Fitness Trainer who has been changing the narrative and idealistic standards of our fitness culture. Louise is a visionary, fitness activist and change agent dedicated to creating a world where every "body" can realize their athletic potential, regardless of their size and has earned fitness expert status on an international scale.

In 2007, to kick off her career, she opened the first plus-size exclusive boot camps in Canada, offering dedicated size-specific fitness service. As a Personal Trainer her work has transcended many lives well beyond the gym, Green has tenaciously dedicated the last 14 years to disrupting the fitness industry as we know it. Banking over 15,000 hours physically training women who are considered outside the “cultural norm,” Louise has refined a unique intelligence into how this group is motivated and responds to fitness practices and messaging. She expanded her career to work with brands and ad agencies to hone a more size-inclusive message and is developing the first size-inclusive fitness certification to better equip trainers and gyms to be more inclusive.

Louise's work spans the globe.  She has coached and influenced thousands of women to put their intimidation aside and live their athletic dreams in the body they have right now.  Louise's vision for impactful world health relies on three pillars of change: Inclusive representation in health and fitness media and advertising, appropriate fitness services that engage people living in larger bodies to move and a fitness industry well educated on size inclusive fitness leadership. Louise believes this perfect storm has the incredible power to mobilize millions of sedentary people to move on a grand scale.

Louise Founded Big Fit Girl, after forging a global movement following the release of her book (Big Fit Girl). Big Fit Girl is now a brand, a hub for coaching programs, a book, a monthly SELF magazine column, a podcast and a size inclusive fitness app now available on Vimeo OTT, Apple iOS and Google Play.

Louise is the voice that thousands of women rely on to change their, often broken, relationship with fitness and their bodies.  Her movement allows for women to unearth their inner athlete and love their bodies, at every size in a climate where that remains a controversial and revolutionary act.

Big Fit Girl has welcomed and supported women into the family from 15 countries, globally.

Louise and Big Fit Girl knows that the language of acceptance is universal.
