6 Personal training staff Steve Johnson Education: Bachelor of Kinesiology with Distinction, University of Victoria; Certification: CPT (CSEP) Having grown up on Vancouver Island, I have always loved the adventures that the outdoors offer. The mountains outside of Calgary are my playground; whether it is hiking, camping, x-c skiing, snowshoeing, river surfing, or trail running, I train for all activities. I moved to Calgary in 2005 and have been personal training ever since. I recently have taken up the sport of Parkour, this discipline places tremendous emphasis on total body conditioning. I bring this focus to every one of my training sessions. No matter what your goal, focusing on conditioning the whole body and mind will significantly enhance your results. Curtiss Matson Education: B.Sc., Exercise and Health Physiology, University of Calgary. Certification: CEP, CSCS, AFLCA resistance training I come from a sporting background that includes playing hockey, basketball, squash, baseball and any other game I could find. Since I started in the fitness field, I have worked with many people of all levels (from beginners to elite athletes) and from a variety of backgrounds. I recently returned from a 6 month deployment embedded with the Canadian Forces in Afghanistan where I was reminded of the importance of the classic training styles. Since returning home, I have started taking a more hybrid approach to training incorporating both classic and more modern exercises and techniques, to return to a system of truly functional training.. Ross Williams Education: B.A (UPEI); PFT Diploma (NAIT) Certification: CPT (CSEP) While chasing a degree in Political Studies, I discovered the benefits of healthy living through exercise. This change in lifestyle eventually led me into the fitness industry, where I ve been for the past seven years. I began my studies at Mount Royal College, and recently upgraded to a Personal Fitness Trainer diploma from NAIT. I believe that fitness is a vital part of the overall health of the individual physically, psychologically and emotionally and hope my example can help and inspire others..
