She moved to the city to begin her bachelor\u2019s degree in kinesiology at the Universit\u00e9 de Sherbrooke, and found at O-Volt far more than a simple student job: a place to experiment, a human laboratory, and a space aligned with her vision of movement and youth development. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this interview from the T\u00eate d\u2019Affiche series, we meet a dedicated, organized, adventurous professional\u2014deeply convinced that fun is the key to a sustainable active lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Artistic, adventurous, involved: the portrait of a different kind of coach<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When asked to describe herself in three words, her answer comes without hesitation: <strong>artistic, adventurous, involved<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Artistic, because she completed a DEC in visual arts while also being in Sport-\u00c9tudes for dance. Her creativity shows in the way she structures her classes. Nothing is left to chance, yet everything feels natural, fluid, and fun.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adventurous, because climbing, backcountry skiing, surfing, long self-supported hikes, and solo travel are part of her everyday life.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That thirst for exploration goes beyond the personal: she also enjoys coaching in disciplines she hasn\u2019t necessarily practiced before, like trampoline or the Ninja course.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Involved, above all. \u201cWhen I commit to something, I go all in,\u201d she says. That trait largely explains her growth within O-Volt.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/o-volt.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Marilou-3-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8531\" style=\"width:723px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/o-volt.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Marilou-3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/o-volt.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Marilou-3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/o-volt.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Marilou-3-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/o-volt.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Marilou-3-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/o-volt.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Marilou-3.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>From student job to professional calling<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A strategic start\u2026 even before moving in<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Marilou found her job at O-Volt during the summer of 2021, before she even unpacked in Sherbrooke.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her initial plan? To stay for the duration of her university studies. Those studies are now finished\u2026 and she\u2019s still here.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What drew her in at the time was the alignment. She was looking for environments that share a passion for healthy physical activity. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Looking back, she sees that those choices were perfectly aligned with her career goals.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Kinesiology and motor development: real-world application on the floor<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now a <strong>certified kinesiologist<\/strong>, she\u2019s been able to apply what she learned at university directly in her classes at O-Volt.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her approach with little ones is especially revealing of her expertise.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Behind the games and fun courses are clear objectives:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Locomotor development<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Balance work<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Building body awareness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Developing laterality<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stimulating fine motor skills<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Everything is \u201cdisguised as games,\u201d because for her, if a child doesn\u2019t associate movement with fun, they won\u2019t adopt an active lifestyle long term.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Planning: the invisible pillar of a successful class<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Marilou describes herself as someone who <strong>plans ahead<\/strong>. Maybe even a little too much, she admits with a laugh. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But in a fast-paced environment like a trampoline and Ninja course center, that preparation is essential. She arrives each morning around 7:00 AM\u2014sometimes 6:30 AM\u2014to set up equipment and adapt the installations for the youngest kids. This behind-the-scenes work makes all the difference.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She also highlights a major evolution at O-Volt over the years: implementing a system to track training plans to ensure consistent quality across all centers.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Official recognition of planning time is, in her view, an important step toward further professionalizing the coach\u2019s role.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A day at O-Volt: intense and rewarding<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If she had to sum up a typical day in three words? <strong>Intense, rewarding<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most demanding moments are often when she has to run a class during peak hours. Lots of kids, parents, surprises\u2026 Impossible to control everything on her own. Teamwork becomes essential.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But what makes her smile the most? The poorly pronounced but completely sincere \u201cThank you, Ma-ri-lou\u201d at the end of class. The spontaneous hugs. The proud looks. Those are the moments that confirm her career choice.    <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>O-Volt through a kinesiologist\u2019s eyes: a movement lab<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Marilou, O-Volt is an exceptional environment for families: a place where kids and adults alike can burn off energy in a supervised, safe setting.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She\u2019s noticed something interesting: parents quickly become kids again when they see their children having fun. The fun becomes collective. Intergenerational.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her professional perspective adds another layer. In her own journey as an athlete, she observed a lack of appropriate resources that sometimes led to injuries. That\u2019s one reason she wants to be part of the solution: optimizing performance while preventing injuries in growing youth.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Breaking the myths: behind the O-Volt shirt<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A persistent myth? That employees are \u201cjust students.\u201d Marilou points out that behind young faces there are sometimes trained professionals: kinesiologists, special education educators, and other experts.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even when they\u2019re not yet certified professionals, you\u2019ll find committed, resourceful, serious people. The level of involvement goes far beyond what you might imagine. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Outside the center: always on the move<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you don\u2019t run into her at O-Volt, you might see her:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>On a climbing wall<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>On a ski slope<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>On a wave at sea<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>On a mountain trail<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Or even biking across Canada<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her ideal day? 25 cm of fresh snow, a coffee in hand, heading for the powder lines until sunset. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Or a multi-pitch climbing day in the fall\u2014blue skies, perfect temperature. Movement isn\u2019t an obligation for her. It\u2019s an identity.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/o-volt.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Marilou-2-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8530\" style=\"width:507px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/o-volt.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Marilou-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/o-volt.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Marilou-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/o-volt.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Marilou-2-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/o-volt.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Marilou-2.jpg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>And tomorrow? Ideas to go further <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If she could add something at O-Volt Sherbrooke, she would suggest:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Adult fitness-style classes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prenatal and postnatal classes (in an adapted setting)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Her vision is clear: expand the center\u2019s positive impact to every stage of life.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u201cO-Volt, to me, is\u2026\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She completes the sentence like this:<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cA place to grow, move, and have fun. A place that creates a lasting desire to move throughout a child\u2019s development.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At its core, Marilou perfectly embodies that mission.
