Ongoing personal training 
Whether you’re new to the gym, working towards a competition or want a tune up on your routine, our certified personal trainers can help you get there. Personal training is offered in-person or virtually.
Book your free 30-minute consultation with a trainer prior to purchasing sessions to determine the best path to success. For more information on personal training and to set up your free training consultation, please fill out the Consultation Form or call 780-497-5693.
Please note that there is limited availability during weekday evenings. Should you require training within this window, there may be a delay for new ongoing personal training clients; our team will contact you for a consultation when availability opens. Please provide various scheduling options when possible to match you with the best fit.
After your consultation, book some personal training sessions. The cost of a session is the same for single participant, or a group—so grab up to two friends and train for a fraction of the cost! If you choose to train as a group simply divide the rate by the number of participants to get your per person rate. Max of three participants per group. Group sessions must be paid for in a single transaction.
