Understanding Training Tiers
As with most industries, our trainers have different levels of qualifications, experience, and scope of practice.

Our Tier 1 (Generalist) trainers are Certified Personal Training trained and registered through a nationally recognized organization. They are best suited to general population needs and those with a limited history of injury or movement difficulties.

Our Tier 2 (Advanced) trainers are certified with the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology and have completed at least two years of post secondary education studying exercise science. They are best suited to those with more complex training needs, including recurring injuries and/or pain conditions, athletic or performance populations, and some clinical/complex health populations.

Our Tier 3 (Specialist) trainers are certified with the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology and have at least five years of professional fitness training experience, working with complex health and movement conditions. They are best suited to those with complex exercise needs requiring significant support, and primarily act as consultants and supervisors to Tier 1 and Tier 2 trainers as needed.
