Lesley Stoyan, the director and owner of Daily Apple, began teaching in Toronto in 1991 at the YWCA. Her passion for fitness took her to Montreal, where she continued her studies and worked with the YMCA, and several downtown commercial facilities and spas.
After returning to Toronto in 1994, Lesley focused on corporate fitness, working with companies such as Procter & Gamble, Imperial Oil, and Manulife Financial. She also began working with teenage girls, emphasizing the importance of exercise and healthy living at a young age. Her teen work earned her a 10-episode series on City TV’s Breakfast Television, educating the public on the risks for youth associated with inactivity and poor lifestyle choices.
In 1999, Lesley took a full-time job at Procter & Gamble, working in their sales and marketing department. Meanwhile, she continued her role within the Toronto office as a wellness provider and led the company in two successful United Way campaigns, targeted at creating community and boosting morale. She also developed corporate educational programs, emphasizing healthy living and stress management.
Lesley continued to teach fitness classes throughout Toronto in both the commercial and community sectors. In 2004 her focus shifted towards the benefits of yoga and proper nutrition, allowing her to construct a coherent program of healthful lifestyle choices.
In 2006, Lesley founded Daily Apple, incorporating the experience gained in her 15 years in the industry. Today, Daily Apple is one of the leading natural health companies in Toronto, teaching people the importance of whole-foods nutrition and eco-friendly living.
