Testimonials

“…I would recommend Thomas to anyone who, not only wants to keep fit, but wants to take their fitness routine to the next level. I am considerably fitter, stronger; more focused, and have much greater stamina, than when I began. I look forward to my sessions with Thomas, and consider them one of the highlights of my week.”

“Tarannum’s attention to and understanding of individual needs are the key elements that put the ‘personal’ in personal training. Her excellent teaching skills and engaging manner make Pilates training a pleasurable and highly productive experience.”

Linda Schwartz
Fitness Institute Member
“I didn’t over train. Striving to meet an aggressive goal has led me to do too much in the past, resulting in strains and injury, limiting performance on race day. I also had great support in a weekly strength training routine with Odain Barrett at the Fitness Institute.”

Richard Campbell
Fitness Institute Member after completing the 2006 Chicago Marathon
“Through my experience with different clubs in Toronto I have to admit that one of the most important things that keep me with a club is its staff. Alex Martin shows great passion to what he does. He possesses a vast knowledge on all aspects of fitness such as weight and cardio training and on nutrition.”

“I have been working with Aleks for well over a year now. Her training style is professional, fun and inspiring. She knows when she can get that ‘little extra’ from me, and that has spilled over to the days that I workout on my own. She is approachable, flexible and a lot of fun to work with. I look forward to Tuesday to see how far I have come!”

“...Ever since I joined the club I have been extremely impressed and awestruck. I have yet to find a class/ individual that did not surpass expectations... Where do you find these talented, compassionate, professional, caring, knowledgeable people? People who are always ready to encourage, assist and praise. People who inform, teach and show a genuine interest in the members...”

"In the past thirty one years plus that I've been a member of the Fitness, I've seen several tennis pros come and go, most of them great teachers and lovely people. So when Scott came to our club a couple of years ago he had a high standard to maintain. This he has certainly achieved. Not only is he a talented teacher, I've learned more from him about tennis that any other pro, he is also a great guy. We're lucky to have Scott and I hope he continues to be a our tennis pro for years to come."

"Tennis is my favourite sport. Mr. Scott Hurtubise, our Racquet Director has been the most helpful teacher in this area of my interest. He is knowledgeable, kind and a great coach. I have improved my skill tremedously. I am playing at the Indoor East Faculty Division League, social tennis on Fridays and the Early Morning House League. I enjoy playing in the new bubble with very friendly club members. Tennis is great at the Fitness Institute!"

"Danny [Meyer] has been my personal trainer for a year. During this time he has helped me through a knee injury to recovery and has significantly improved my strength and conditioning as well as with the prevention of injury. Danny is passionate about fitness and it shows through the energy and enthusiasm he brings to each challenging (yet fun!) session. He is highly knowledgeable and he knows the importance of creating and adjusting a training program for each of his clients."
