Mini bio
How it started.
Raised in public housing in Oshawa, Ontario, Jeanette found confidence and structure in sport. In her Women of Today interview, she traced her working life back to lifeguarding, teaching swimming, springboard diving and aquafitness. She later taught land aerobics and studied Human Kinetics at the University of Ottawa.
Building The Hollywood Trainer.
Black Enterprise reported that Jeanette began her personal fitness business in 1990 and launched The Hollywood Trainer in 2002. Her early cross-training DVD series helped take her teaching beyond the gym. In an interview with The Home Edit, she said those seven workouts reached more than 17 countries.
From DVDs to streaming.
Jeanette told The Home Edit that seeing laptops lose their DVD drives helped convince her to move into streaming. The Hollywood Trainer Club became a home for workouts, meal plans and community support. Her client list has included P!nk, Alicia Keys and Jurnee Smollett, while her online work makes her coaching available to fans at home.
New ways to connect.
In 2021, Apple introduced seven HIIT and strength sessions with Jeanette, its first featured Fitness+ guest trainer. She added The Jeanette Jenkins Show in November 2025, bringing her interest in healthy living into interviews and discussions about confidence, relationships and wellbeing.
