Reimagining Fitness

Action Potential Fitness was founded in March 2020, right at the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, through the merger of two grassroots fitness companies—Generate Fitness (Zita Dube-Lockhart, she/they) and In Your Boots Fitness (Toni Harris, they/them). Zita and Toni first met in 2016 while completing the Personal Fitness Trainer program at NAIT, where they were quickly dubbed a “dream team” by instructors.

While the world slowed to a halt, they got to work—finding creative ways to keep their clients moving and their passion alive. The result: Action Potential Fitness, a collaborative venture built on the belief that everything is better when we do it together. Within two years, it became one of Edmonton’s leading personal training and group fitness studios.

In an industry driven by competition, APF stands apart. As true partners, Toni and Zita co-create every element of the business—from program design to client care—blending their unique perspectives to deliver trauma-informed, inclusive, and whole-person health experiences for every client, both in-person and virtually across Canada.
