Hi, I’m Cansu Croteau, a former Olympic-level sprinter from Istanbul, now based in Boston.
I’m a certified personal trainer, nutritionist, and Pilates instructor with a degree in Exercise Science and over a decade of experience helping people transform their health, strength, and confidence.
? Quick Note: Thumbtack charges me $24–$40 every time someone reaches out. If you're truly ready to make a change, I’d love to hear from you, serious inquiries only, please.
From ages 15 to 24, I competed internationally on the Turkish National Track & Field Team, specializing in the 200m and 400m sprints. Since retiring from professional athletics in 2015, I’ve been helping clients of all backgrounds improve their physical and mental well-being through personalized fitness and nutrition programs.
I specialize in working with:
✅ Postnatal clients rebuilding core strength and confidence
✅ Clients recovering from surgery or injury
✅ Older adults focused on longevity and mobility
✅ People who struggle with motivation and need accountability
✅ Runners aiming to improve performance, technique, or prevent injury
✅ Couples who want to train together and support each other’s goals
✅ Clients looking to get toned, lose weight, and feel more confident in their body
✅ Anyone ready to feel strong, healthy, and in control of their body
What sets me apart is a mind-body approach. In addition to my fitness background, I’m currently earning my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. This gives me deeper insight into motivation, emotional wellness, and the mental roadblocks that often impact physical progress. My sessions are not just about reps and sets, they’re about showing up for your whole self.
My process starts with a full posture and movement analysis. I study how you move so we can design a custom plan that fits your body and goals. Whether you want to tone, gain strength, heal from pregnancy or surgery, or simply age with energy and confidence, I’ll meet you where you are and guide you from there.
? Working with a personal trainer is an investment in yourself.
Many of my clients work with me for a year and walk away empowered, educated, and equipped to keep going on their own, injury-free and motivated.
If you're ready to take your health seriously, and want a coach with real-world experience, empathy, and a deep commitment to your growth, I’d love to be part of your journey.
