I am pleased to say that I had a wonderful experience by taking the CanFit Personal Training course with Mr. Steve Lee from June 14th to June 16th at Goodlife of Northridge. I was on the fence to take the course or not as it is not my primary career choice. After our first class steve Lee s enthusiasm for fitness, health, and training really got me inspired to learn more. His experience and knowledge for not only physical training, but the psychology of training, muscular movement and the bio-mechanics of training were so extremely helpful to me. I highly recommend taking the course with Steve Lee. if you want to become a Certified Training Specialist (or even if you just want to learn for your own know how.

Don t waste your time or money. Signed up completed all my online course then came time for the in class part. Well it was cancelled email said blame the beautiful weather . Ok so rebooked get email saying it s cancelled again due to not enough interest (7 ppl wasn t enough). Yet when I called head office they said they run course if only 2 ppl are signed up. Well I work at a gym I m losing potential clients. Neither excuse to me was a good one.

Took the PTS course at Canfitpro and Tammy Slauenwhite was absolutely amazing. Great attention to detail, was well organized, and always included students in the discussion. Can't say enough good things about her. The course was excellent, 10/10 would recommend Tammy to anybody looking to become a personal trainer!

I've participated in the Fascia, Movement and Assessment course from CANFITPRO, which provided me with a good understanding of what fascia is all about as my knowledge of this subject was minimal. The Pro Trainer, Mike Kelly delivered the material by providing descriptive examples of its function, some videos and made us get up from our chairs to perform some of the exercises/assessments. He also took the time to demonstrate how to incorporate assessments in our training program and how to analyse the results. I recommend this course to anyone who wishes to deepen their knowledge on this subject. I enjoyed the course and with this new found knowledge, it will certainly help me be a better Personal Training Specialist.

I just completed my weekend PTS course and was blessed to have an amazing instructor in Daniel Smith owner/founder of onlythestrongINC. Daniel made the weekend course fun, interactive and most importantly inspired me to work my butt off to hammer the upcoming exam. I want to pass not only for myself but to also make him proud, that is a sure sign of an extraordinary teacher.
Daniel's passion for health, wellness and educating others was evident in his commitment to making sure our group understood the topics of focus and took the time to allow us to engage in great group discussions which provided great clarity and a lot of "a-ha" moments.
I was also inspired by the 5 amazing women that I got to spend the weekend with and the stories of why they are embarking on this journey of health and wellness. Thank you Daniel, Tatiana and my new fitness friends for making a weekend of learning abundantly enjoyable.

I recently took the Healthy Eating and Weight Loss Coach course with Anastasia Maryukova. Anastasia is an excellent teacher! She was very knowledgable, personable, and explained sometimes-complex concepts in a very clear, concise, and digestible way. I came out of the course feeling prepared to tackle the written exam. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in helping themselves or others lead healthier lives through nutrition.

The in class portion of the course is informative, and it is a helpful supplement to the textbook. The instructor, Ariella, did a very good job explaining a variety of concepts that are important for becoming a personal trainer. I would recommend more hands on experience for the in class portion in the future!

I would recommend Trevor Pickett for the PTS course a thousand times over!!!

I took my PTS course with Trevor in July. At first, I was hesitant to sign up for the online course because I remember how much I valued the in-person experience for my FIS course back in 2017. However, after reaching out to Trevor, he told me that he was committed to making the online course as fun and engaging as the live one would have been. He was so well-spoken and believed 100% in his ability to deliver an excellent online course, and that alone convinced me to sign up with him.

Well, Trevor completely made good on his promise! The course was indeed informative, fun, and extremely engaging! He gave us awesome and helpful tricks for remembering tidbits that would help us in our theory exams and in our actual PT practice. Moreover, he went above and beyond to make sure that we had all our questions answered in class, and he made - and has continued to make - himself available outside of course time to be there to support his students/former students. Thanks to Trevor, I successfully completed the PTS course, theory exam, and practical exam in a month and 6 days!

Best certification experience ever! Thanks a million, Trevor!

I took the CanFitPro Personal Training Specialist (PTS) course with Mike Kelly on May 16-19, 2019.
Mike is an excellent instructor - very knowledgeable, and very demanding (in a good way) in that he expects you to know your material, and apply it in the most competent and professional way that you can with your clients.
He demonstrated many of the concepts and had many stories to illustrate his points. His depth of experience showed.
Thanks, Mike!

Trevor Pickett is inspiring, motivating and has integrity. He hands down makes me want to be a better person and personal trainer. I took my CanFitPro course in July of 2019 and from the get go he was incredible! He made sure we all understood the material and demonstrated the positions as well as created innovative ways to learn the muscles and bones. We weren t just sitting in a class looking at a projector reading out of the text book. ..till today we are still in touch and he has encouraged us to stay in communication with him for anything we need. Thank you Trevor - you rock and make this world a better place!

A training that I was registered for through Canfitpro was canceled about a week and a half before the training was to take place. Even though they were the ones to cancel the training I have ended up paying over $30 in what they fail to specify as non-refundable fees when registering for any of their programs. In order to get my refund I had to mail the books back to them, otherwise they were going to charge me $90 for the books, even though they were the ones to cancel. Mailing the books back cost me $19.00 and they refused to reimburse me for this cost. On top of that, if you are using their online payment system, they refuse to refund you for the portion that went to their payment processing program. I have now wasted multiple hours of my time, spent over $30 and have received absolutely nothing.

The fact that the training was cancelled would not have been a big deal at all if the company had chosen to take responsibility for the situation. Instead they choose to penalize those who invested time into working with them. I have been less than impressed with the customer service I have received and they have completely dismissed the situation. Through this experience, I would not recommend working with Canfitpro as they clearly lack responsibility and integrity for their actions.

I did the PTS course in summer 2017 with Dave Robertson, and I have been working in the industry for over a year and a half now as a part time personal trainer. The course definitely helped to set the fundamentals in how I train my clients! But because it's a weekend course, I would highly suggest doing some textbook reading on your own to attending because things will make a lot more sense, especially if you don't have a science background.

Did my CPR class with David Robertson and it was fantastic!. I went into class feeling like I might not feel comfortable performing CPR after my certification. However David was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I'm so glad I decided to get my certification with him after reading amazing reviews online! If I could give him more stars I would! Whether you are renewing your certification or getting it for the first time David will always have something more to teach you!

I had and incredible weekend taking the 3 day Canfit Professional Training Course at Milton/Mattamy Cycling Centre taught by Dan Smith and the Wellness Branded Education Team. Dan is beyond an incredible teacher, he is extremely educated and makes the entire course exciting and interesting. The material flowed smoothly and clearly making it very easy for the class to stay engaged and focused. In my opinion, he goes above and beyond what is expected as a course instructor and I feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to learn from him. Truly I was sad that the course was over so quickly but I highly recommend Dan and his Wellness Branded Team!

I took the PT course and did both my exams with David Robertson. He was an awesome teacher, making sure he explained in depth all of the concepts we needed to know not only for the exam but to run a successful PT business. I use a lot of the information and tips I took from his course daily with my clients and to continuously build my business. I was nervous to take the tests! but found him to be an encouraging and fair examiner. Because of this course, I now feel knowledgeable and confident as a PT. I would highly recommend taking this course with David if you re looking to become a certified PT!

PTS Instructor Steve Lee. Good LIfe Fitness Northridge (Yonge and Finch) 11-13 Oct 2019

"The canfitpro PTS course is absolutely essential for anyone wanting to gain certification in the fitness industry. Despite the huge amount of information to be covered, Steve's significant knowledge and experience combined with his approach of focusing on important material in each Chapter of the textbook really helped my understanding of the many interconnections between theory and practical applications. As well, his detailed approach to describing and demonstrating exercises and assessments - and his encouragement of, and openness to, our questions - added a great deal to the learning experience. I have no hesitation in recommending this course, and Steve's ability and enthusiasm to deliver it. He's a highly credible and helpful instructor."

I look forward to furthering my education with the Wellness Branded Education team in the near future!

Even though it was one of his first virtual training sessions, Trevor's warmth and enthusiasm came through loud and clear. He expertly covered the PTS content, led us through breakout, hands-on learning opportunities and prepped us for our exams. I cannot recommend canfitpro (or Trevor!) highly enough.

Phone lines always busy (seriously, a busy phone line in the year 2020??), administration there is a joke. They said I failed an exam which I passed over 10 years ago. They don't reply to e-mails or phone calls, SCAM artists. I have always kept up my membership with my CEU's. Don't take these fake reviews seriously. it's their staff that reviewed their own company.

Just completed my practical exam with Steve Lee. He was incredibly informative throughout the entire process. I was very nervous as I am not great with talking out-loud - however he made me feel very comfortable throughout the entire session. At the end of the session he even sat me down, went through everything, and took his time to explain some things that I could work on. If I had any questions prior to the exam, I would send him an email and he would respond very quickly, which was helpful. If you are taking your CANFITPRO course I would definitely recommend taking it with Steve Lee! He was knowledgable, enthusiastic and also efficient.

Just completed my Personal Training Specialist 5-day theory course with Trevor Pickett and was blown away. First, the content of the course and textbook is hugely impressive and up-to-date. The material is dense, though, and this is where doing the live Zoom training can make or break the learning experience. Trevor Pickett was able to bring the course to life. The five days are grueling but Trevor is a superb teacher - funny, knowledgeable, and very caring about his students. Thank you, Trevor!

Being a member of CanFitPro and learning from Pro Trainer Mike Kelly has been an absolute joy. I am so grateful to have received both my Personal Training Specialist and Fascia Movement and Assessments certification with him. Although the majority of my learning had to be moved virtually, Mike Kelly has been beyond accommodating and patient as we learn this new world of Virtual learning. As many, I was hesitant to go virtual as I LOVE being in-person and receiving the hands-on experience, but as always, Mike was ready to accommodate and make things exciting and engaging even from a computer screen! Thank you for providing me with the skillset, knowledge and confidence to go out in the field and do what I love each and every single day.

I recently completed the Canfitpro Personal Training Specialist course with Pro Trainer Trevor Pickett (Offbeat Fitness Education). The course consisted of 5 days of online training via ZOOM. One might assume that 5 1/2 hours a day of online learning would be tiresome and rather dull, but that was not my experience.
I cannot speak highly enough of Pro Trainer Trevor. His communication style was both informative, thorough and animated in delivery. Trevor was efficient in covering the course material while still finding time to thoughtfully answer all of the participants questions. He is well spoken, well informed and passionate about his profession.
I admire Trevor for his knowledge and dedication to his craft and I urge anyone who is interested in taking the PTS course to sign up with Trevor. You will be ideally positioned for success!

Took my PTS course with Tammy Dixon out of the Liverpool Goodlife with the Wellness Branded Education Team and I am extremely impressed by the knowledge and eagerness to teach that she demonstrated. Every question I had, was met with a comprehensive answer that left me with a fully understanding of all the concepts involved. Also she gave us a complete picture of what to expect on the written exam as well as the practical. Both of which were led in a professional manner leaving me with full confidence in her and the CanFitPro certification to provide me with a solid foundation going forward. I would absolutely recommend Tammy to anyone I know that is interested in the fitness field whether they wanted to get the certification or just had a few questions they needed answered.

I just took the personal training course with Tammy Slauenwhite and absolutely loved it! Her teaching style is absolutely amazing, I thoroughly enjoyed attending her class, having fun throughout the class and still learning so much and grasping onto the information right away. She is a like a walking textbook with boat loads of knowledge but continues to maintain an amazing personality. 100% would recommend to anybody

My instructor was Tammy Dixon from the wellness branded team at the GoodLife Pickering Liverpool location. I was impressed with the amount of information I had acquired in the short span of 3 days. She was a Very educated and professional instructor who taught me about correct alignment, program design, the business of personal training, and practical application. This among many other areas of health and fitness. The only thing left is the exam and CPR and I can t wait. I hope to use the skills I ve learned from her and apply them to a real world setting either at home or in a facility.

I have just taken the CanFitPro Personal Training Specialist course from Daniel of the Wellness Branded Education team at the Mattamy Cycling Centre. Dan is an outstanding coach who not only got the entire group engaged but also made learning hard concepts more fun. I would defiantly take another course from Dan

In Aug 2017, I did the PTS theory course and practical exam with David Robertson. The theory class over the three days was great. He is unbelievably knowledgeable about fitness and training. The course wasn t rushed, he took what time was needed to explain all the components necessary as well as information that one should know in general. My practical exam with Dave was equally as great. He encourages, guides and supports you. I highly recommend taking his course. Fantastic instructor.

I have been researching pt courses for a while and decided to take this one. Unfortunately due to covid my course was cancelled. Trevor Pickett was awesome and offered me all the info I needed to take the virtual course. After this I decided to join his virtual class.

He was super informative in a fun way (considering I was thinking I was gonna space out doing an online zoom course)

It was way better than I expected and Trevor exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this course and him as your teacher. I was nervous for the exam till now. I will be looking for future courses that I can hopefully take with him

Definitely a 5 star experience

Last weekend I attended my in-class portion of my PTS certification with PRO Trainer Mike Kelly. What an absolutely incredible experience! After working in the field as a personal trainer and group fitness trainer with a another certification (which my work provided), I found so many unanswered questions were answered during this course. Mike Kelly was more than inspirational, giving great insight into real-life experience working in the field, and was more than patient when explaining any difficult topics. Incredibly grateful I signed up for this course and I'm already enrolled for another course with Mike Kelly next month! Can't wait to continue learning, thank you canfitpro!

I chose to take the course out of interest to learn more about the industry. I got a lot more than i was thinking out it. It was very thorough with all the material and the coursework. There is alot of studying, reviewing and practice involved to comfortably pass the course. Although having a teacher that is thorough and clear, like Eldon, helped alot.
All in all, it was an excellent decision to take the Canfitpro PTS course, and would highly reccomend it to anyone thinking of getting into to the personal training industry.
