Line Dance & Clogging Instructor & Choreographer

Deborah A. O’Hara aka Dancing Debbie Line Dance & Clogging Instructor & ChoreographerMy passion for teaching Line Dance began in the early 90’s. Travelling to events in Canada & the U.S. I entered competitions for solo dancer and choreographer. "Easy Come Easy Go" & "Blue" were favorite's & winners. That same enthusiasm to promote & share sparked the creation of the "South Western Ontario Teachers Association" where instructors could gather together to share dances. Proud moments, are the Dance-A-Thon's raising monies for Children's Miracle Network & the Sunshine Foundation. I was invited to Blackpool England to a workshop called "The Legends." At this amazing event I was given an award for my very first choreographed dance “Easy Come Easy Go”.  Who would of thought that my wee dance was being done all over the world. I was so honored & thrilled. At that time I thought it was my gold watch but instead it reignited my Passion.I also stuck my dancing shoes back into the competition arena this year at "Dance For All" In Ft. Wayne Indiana. I won 1st place for Improver (The Vowel with Attitude) & 2nd for Beginner (A Friend Like Me) On top of that I took Over All. 75 dances were in the competition, so I was amazed and tickled to have placed. And there is more, I was asked to teach at next years event. So hope you will come along with me to this great event. Let's get together to dance, share and have fun!!!!My goal has always been to promote & share the enjoyment of dance 

Personal Trainer & wellness & much more 

I would like to introduce myself to you - I am Antonio Fongang and I am the owner and operator of Joie de vivre Fitness and Training. I am a Certified Personal Trainer Specialist; Certified in Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Timeline Therapy, and Hypnosis; Certified Nutrition and Wellness Specialist; Crossfit Trainer L1; Second Degree Black Belt in Karate Shotokan; a former professional soccer player as well as a strength and conditioning coach. This year, I was also honoured to be nominated as one of Canada's Top 10 Trainers. 

​

As a professional soccer player, I played in several countries such as France, Switzerland, Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia. As a trainer, I have trained high profile professional soccer players and teams, throughout the world, as a strength and conditioning coach. I also have a Pharmacy Technician Diploma.

​

As a coach, I want to inspire, motivate, and support the will inside every client to achieve a permanent lifestyle through a positive mindset, regular exercise, and healthy nutrition. I also want to help clients exceed their own expectations about what they can achieve.

​

As a coach, I strongly believe that every individual is capable of attaining their optimum physical condition, if made aware of their potential and how to achieve it. Throughout my career, I have encountered people of all ages and conditions who have accomplished things they never thought possible. No, we don’t all have the genetics of a super model or elite athlete, but everyone can improve on what they have and reach their full potential.

​

I also think of every client as an extension of myself, and hold both myself and my clients accountable for the success of our training relationship. For that reason, I prefer to work with people who are as committed as I am.

My philosophy focuses on continual lifelong learning as I work towards enhancing the well-being of my clients by empowering them with the knowledge, skill, support, guidance and resources to assist and inspire them on their journeys to a healthier life.
