Meet Coach Wood!

I know firsthand what it means to grow up as a female athlete in a male-dominated sport. I wrestled competitively for five years at McMaster University, where I learned how to push myself physically and mentally. I also experienced the pressure of making weight, navigating body image, and learning how to properly fuel and care for my body while competing at a high level.

​

Those experiences are a huge part of why I became a coach. I understand that female athletes need more than just a workout plan. They need someone who recognizes the mental demands of sport, the pressures surrounding weight and appearance, and the importance of building confidence alongside physical strength. I am especially passionate about supporting female wrestlers and helping them take both their bodies and minds to the next level without sacrificing their health in the process. 

​

After finishing my wrestling career, I became a Canfitpro-certified personal trainer. Over the years, I have coached at F45 and BP8, led dryland training for Devilettes hockey teams, and worked privately with athletes through both in-person and online training.

​

I also love helping women of all ages (16-72) build strength, move with confidence, and feel capable in their everyday lives. Whether I am working with a competitive athlete or someone beginning a new chapter in their fitness journey, my goal is always to meet them where they are and help them become stronger in a way that feels realistic and sustainable.

 

Outside of coaching, I am a full-time teacher. Teaching and training may look different, but both allow me to do what I love most: help people recognize what they are capable of and give them the tools to keep growing.

Client Testimonial

Working with Monica Wood at Tailored Fitness in London, Ontario has absolutely transformed me. Not just as an athlete, but as a person.After suffering a concussion, I took eight months off. Physically, I felt disconnected from my body.

Mentally, I was struggling even more.

The time away from training shook my confidence, my identity, and my belief in what I was capable of.

Coming back felt overwhelming, and I wasn’t sure where to start, or if I could ever return to the level I

knew I was capable of.

​

From day one, Monica approached my recovery with patience, empathy, and intention.

She didn’t just hand me a program, she truly listened.

She understood the mental battle I was facing just as much as the physical one.

Every workout was tailored not only to rebuild my strength safely, but to rebuild my confidence.​​

​

What sets Monica apart is her ability to balance compassion with accountability.

She met me where I was, but she never let me stay there.

She challenged me in the right ways, at the right time. As I gradually regained my physical strength,

I also rebuilt resilience, discipline, and belief in myself. The structured progression she designed allowed

me to trust my body again, something I wasn’t sure would ever happen.

​​​

The transformation over the past eight months has been incredible. I’m stronger, more conditioned, and more athletic than I was before my injury. But more importantly, I’m mentally tougher. I’ve learned how to push through doubt, manage setbacks, and stay consistent even when progress feels slow.

​

Monica didn’t just help me return to sport, she helped me evolve. I came back not only as a better athlete, but as a more grounded, confident, and resilient person overall.

​

If you’re looking for a coach who truly cares, who understands both the mental and physical side of performance, and who will walk beside you through the process, Monica Wood at Tailored Fitness is that coach. Working with her has been one of the most impactful decisions I’ve ever made.
