Ryann David is a kinesiologist (B.Kin. Candidate, Brock University) and certified personal trainer at Propel Active Health & Lifestyle in Burlington. With a strong academic foundation in human movement, exercise physiology, and injury prevention — combined with credentials as a certified personal trainer and yoga instructor — Ryann brings a science-based, movement-focused approach to fitness that goes well beyond the typical gym experience.
At Propel, Ryann works as part of a multi-disciplinary team of chiropractors, physiotherapists, and registered massage therapists. That means your fitness programming can be directly coordinated with your healthcare plan when needed — a meaningful advantage that standalone gyms and franchise fitness studios simply can't offer.
Ryann's training philosophy follows a straightforward principle: move well before you move often. Layering intensity onto poor movement patterns leads to injury, not results. Before progressing load or complexity, Ryann ensures the foundational patterns are solid — appropriate mobility, sound technique, and balanced strength across the body. This approach is grounded in her academic kinesiology training at Brock University, and applied through practical, goal-oriented sessions that meet clients where they are.
