Jessie Behan

Personal Trainer and Actress

Born and raised in Toronto, Ontario,  Jessie grew up in a large family of seven and at a young age she developed a passion for sports. Jessie competed in alpine skiing for 12 years, played premiere women’s soccer, ran several half marathons, raced in sailing regattas, played ultimate frisbee at the national level, and hit the badminton and squash racquet for 10 years. When she wasn’t competing on the ski hill or soccer field, she would be performing on stages in Montreal, Sydney, Ireland, and Toronto.

Ultimately, Jessie’s passion for health and fitness motivated her to become a personal trainer. Today, Jessie brings expertise in fitness, nutrition, cleanses, clean, and organic eating, the practice of yoga and more. Known to indulge in the odd burritos or a bag of popcorn at the movies, Jessie understands how to maintain a balanced and healthy lifestyle and will be sharing her notable expertise to help you learn and achieve healthy habits.

Most likely to be seen:

Dancing at Underground, Cabin 5 or Two Cats with her girlfriends, indulging at Sushi Time, Fresh, Korean Grill, or Burrito Boyz when she’s craving a quick bite on Queen Street, on the ski hill in Collingwood, kicking around the soccer ball or in an upward dog at Moksha Yoga Uptown, performing a Conservatory Second City Show, or watching improv comedy at Rivoli, Poor Alex, or Comedy Bar.

What’s notable?

Anyone who is doing their part, whether it’s through planning a charity event or running in a marathon, to create awareness and raise funds for an important cause.
