Jada Barkman-Hofer
Physio Aide
I’m passionate about health, wellness, and living an active lifestyle. I grew up playing and coaching Ringette, and over the years, that love for movement has only grown. These days, I’m focused on walking and strength training. When I’m not working, you’ll find me outdoors with my two kids—hiking, swimming, or soaking up the sun at the beach in the summer. In the winter, we love spending time at the pool. Helping others feel their best is what brings me joy and I’m excited to be part of the IDC team!
