Empowering the next generation of female leaders in Canada. Our summits aim to keep exceptional young women on the right path by allowing them to meet, hear from and learn from some of the top female leaders in Canada!

What takes place at Her Mark?

Physical Education

• The fitness stations are a chance for the participants to meet and interact with some of the top female Olympians in Canada
• At each station the Olympian will explain why the movements and activities are important for their well-being and long-term health
• Many of the activates do not require equipment so the attendees can continue to do the movements at home
• We explain the cognitive benefits and mood regulation of fitness

Nutrition Education

• We feel passionately about teaching the Her Mark attendees about proper nutrition as it is an area that is often overlooked in our educational system
• Proper nutrition especially for young women has so many benefits; for example, menstrual cycles means different nutritional needs
• Her Mark summit participants are sent home with a healthy recipe book

Mental Health

• Mental health issues continue to be one of the greatest challenges teenage girls currently face
• The participants are divided into break out groups which provide a safe space for attendees to have their feelings and thoughts normalized and validated
• This activity promotes the self-confidence, self-esteem, and empathy of participants
• In the groups the participants come up with questions for our special guests
• Athletes and celebrities speak very candidly to the participants about eating disorders, body image issues, on-line criticism, depression and anxiety
