You can get all the benefits of active living regardless of any physical, health or time limitations.
UCalgary training programs involve individualized, continuing instruction and motivation to increase your well-being and workout results.
Our team consists of expert Personal Trainers, Exercise Physiologists, and Strength and Conditioning Specialists, who are nationally certified. We will provide you with appropriate tests, exercises, and education in order to achieve your fitness and lifestyle goals.
Our staff are certified by the Candian Society for Exercise Physiology, considered the gold standard in exercise science and personal training. This means that every CSEP Exercise Physiologist® and CSEP Certified Personal Trainer® has a diploma or degree recognized by a provincial Ministry of Education.
CSEP is the only agency in Canada whose certified professionals are directly affiliated with the scientists/researchers who are experts in this field. Plus, CSEP members are required to maintain their skills and proficiency through continuing education.
Our excellent standard of certification means our personal training services are often covered by extended health plans. Check with your health plan provider to see if you can benefit from our services while shouldering less of the cost.
Current UCalgary students and Active Living membership holders receive up to 25% off regular personal training prices.
