Bouncing around her studio with limitless energy, Leanne Zdebiak-Eni leads her clients towards their fitness goals with great enthusiasm.
Zdebiak-Eni started (Studio IPF) 21 years ago and says she loves the way her business and the fitness industry are constantly evolving.
Studio IPF offers a diverse range of fitness classes, yoga, Pilates and TRX Suspension training, all designed to build strength and enhance overall wellness in a supportive group setting.
Zdebiak-Eni and her team of nine dedicated instructors are passionate about creating a fun, encouraging environment where clients not only get stronger physically, but also build mental resilience.
Women of all ages and fitness levels come into the studio with friends or they find friends when they’re there, building on a community vibe which is the essence of group fitness.
Those unable to physically make it into the studio can participate by following along through hybrid classes that are streamed online. Zdebiak-Eni says this is something that originated during the challenging COVID period.
She notes some women who come through her doors have never stepped inside a fitness facility before and are often a little shy and unsure, but go through an incredible transformation.
Zdebiak-Eni believes what happens in the studio extends into the outside world, with clients becoming stronger and more confident, expanding to do things in their life they never thought they would do, be it starting new careers, exploring new activities or travelling to places they once only dreamed of.
Most of the clientele in her studio are female and are 40 years of age or older, with some even being in their 80s. Zdebiak-Eni adds it’s her thriving, active agers that really inspires her.
The team at Studio IPF gives back to the Comox Valley through monthly ‘Bellyfit’ community fundraisers which not only raise money but also awareness for groups such as Mothers Against Drunk Driving, You Are Not Alone and the Comox Valley Transition Society.
Zdebiak-Eni says as a businesswoman it’s important to give back to the local community and she does whatever she can to help others in the Comox Valley.
