What Our Clients Have To Say

Meet Your Kins!

Skip the Gym was founded by Julia Mayzel and Kaylee De Benedetto, two kinesiologists with a shared passion for injury rehabilitation, functional movement, and personal training. While completing our Bachelor of Kinesiology degrees at the University of Alberta, we gained extensive experience in physiotherapy clinics, fitness facilities, athletic training rooms, and youth sports. These opportunities strengthened our interest in helping individuals move better, recover safely, and build life-long strength.

During our work in sport and rehabilitation settings, we noticed a growing need for mobile kinesiology services in Edmonton, St. Albert, and Sherwood Park. Many clients needed professional support, but had difficulty attending traditional gym or clinic appointments.

To bridge this gap, we launched Skip the Gym – Mobile Kinesiology Services in 2018 with a clear mission:
to provide accessible, evidence-based healthcare, injury rehabilitation, and at-home exercise programs directly in our clients’ homes.

Today, we specialize in:

In-home injury rehabilitation, chronic pain management
Personal fitness programs customized to each individual’s needs and goals
Strength and mobility training for adults and seniors
In-home athletic training for youth and recreational athletes

Our approach blends the best aspects of personal training and physiotherapy-inspired exercise therapy – helping our clients gain functionality, confidence, and improve their long-term health.

What Sets Us Apart?

At Skip the Gym, personalized care isn’t a feature – it’s the foundation of everything we do. We know that when it comes to personal fitness, injury rehabilitation, or improving joint mobility, one-size-fits-all never works. That’s why every client begins with a comprehensive 60-minute assessment that goes far beyond the basics. You will then receive targeted strength training and corrective exercise programming tailored exclusively to your needs. There is no guesswork and no generic workouts. Your sessions will be purposeful and strategically designed to help you meet your goals.

What’s the difference between kinesiology and physiotherapy sessions?
We don’t just focus on treating the single area that hurts—we look at the whole body and how everything connects. As comprehensive-care specialists, we maximize the value of every appointment by addressing multiple needs within the same session. You get the best results in the least amount of time, because we ‘attack from all angles’ to give you the most efficient and valuable experience possible.

Whether you’re rebuilding after an injury or surgery, managing chronic pain, or looking to elevate your athletic performance, we guide you step-by-step with professional support, safe progression, and customized strategies designed for real results.
