Raya Kelly

The most courageous thing Raya has ever done was immigrate to Canada in 2006 without knowing anyone in Toronto. She’s been working in the fitness industry ever since, first as a personal trainer and later on as a small studio owner. With a background in physical education and physiotherapy from Bulgaria, and certifications from CPTN and Precision Nutrition, Raya brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the team. She is dedicated to helping clients improve their health and fitness, specializing in weight loss and nutritional coaching.

As the Club Manager, Raya oversees club operations, trainer-client pairings, and team member onboarding. She was attracted to Body + Soul Fitness because of the boutique style facility and the friendly and welcoming staff. “You get this family feeling that is missing in the big gyms. Everybody knows everybody,” she explains. “I felt ‘at home’ from my first visit to the club. This is a space where you’re not just another body in the space.”
