02 Dedicated coach for duration of stay
I’m a no-excuses coach here to push your personal limits and elevate progression. You need to be coachable: let go of control and be honest – no matter what.
03 You cook your own delicious, easy meals
Each boot camper has their own full kitchen – granite counters, all the amenities. The plan is gluten, wheat, meat and (almost) dairy free. You grocery shop as a team.
Modern, luxury one-bedroom condo all to yourself! Steps from the beach surrounded by nature. The Sunrise Ridge Resort is the perfect retreat.
Daily schedule, Monday to Friday. This includes activity, nature walks, boot camp on the beach, or restorative workouts, personal training and coaching, guided nutrition and more.
Amazing body transformation – lighter, stronger and fitter. You’ll feel better physically, mentally, spiritually. Motivation, clarity, education and peaceful realizations to make this whole weight loss thing DOABLE, enjoyable and empowering.
Personal development to get unstuck and upgrade your actions and behavioural changes towards healthy living. You’ll gain confidence and build healthier self esteem, fitness and body image.

You’ll sweat, eat, meal plan, workout, cry, laugh and transform with the same 4 women for one full month. Even though you have your own private residence, there’s social opportunity as much as you’d like.

When I first arrived, I could run 1/4 of the track.. Now I'm an energizer bunny, running around multiple times a day. My weight has dropped and I will be in a healthy weight zone soon because I am following Cat Smiley's well-researched plan for what to put in your body and when, and how to move your body. I will be recommending her to my own clients. Thanks Coach!!

Top rated weight loss camp... return boot camper here! Hi! I lost 25lbs in my one month stay in Parksville location. Before the pandemic in 2019 Whistler session I lost 53 lbs in my two month stay. Cat Smiley GETS RESULTS and she does it in a unique, coaching style way that blends beautiful hiking with tough-yet-compassionate boot camp workouts. You know she's always looking out for your best interests and above all, you feel safe in her knowledge.
I've visited several fitness retreats prior to joining this one, in San Diego before the pandemic and Kamloops. All 3 experiences were unique in their own way. I liked WFV the most because it's amazing to have your own personal coach; with customization and special considerations for my ability as it progresses. I highly recommend this weight loss camp and can't wait to return!

I’ve been at Cat Smiley Boot Camp for 6 weeks so far and I’ve lost almost 30lbs! That’s unbelievable for me as a former athlete in her mid-50s who has tried everything to lose weight. Coach is an amazing motivator, trainer and professional manager of fitness transformation that gets results. As a busy career woman, I appreciated the attention to detail and organized planning of every element. Highly recommend this weight loss camp for ambitious goal seekers who appreciate quality.

LOVE LOVE LOVE Cat Smiley’s fitness and weight loss camp!!! It's definitely a boot camp where you work have to follow the program and be equally invested in your results as your coach is. I went for 4 weeks and it was LIFE CHANGING. The hiking is spectacular but most of all, I liked the boot camp experience. Her approach is very coaching focused, she treats you like an athlete so you rise up to the challenge to become one. Highly recommend to anyone who is ready to truly making changes. And Bear is the sweetest - pic attached!

My girlfriend attend Car Smiley previously several times. She got the results she wanted and then some. She tough but empathetic. Cat Smiley is there to make you successful. If you follow the food and her instructions you will indeed succeed. Not only that she gave my gf guides for moving fwd. CAT SMILEY still is there to support and answer questions even though my gf has finished the boot camp thanks Cat

Throughout my stay, such great support and encouragement in our weight loss camp. It's indeed a kick start and I've been able to implement the skills learnt at home. Over a year has passed since my wellness retreat in Whistler and I think fondly of the experience often. Recently I popped by the new location on Vancouver Island to catch up with Cat, and we went on a gorgeous hike. Many thanks, to everyone - I look forward to being able to return! Love Bear also, the team dog 💖
