A Bit About Me
I have been involved with physical culture since 1988. Having joined a gym and getting the fitness bug I have not looked back since.
With a background in traditional martial arts and a solid Boxing back ground. I have since 2006 been working within the Fitness industry keeping clients healthy, fit and strong.
I'm now an active trail runner who is still enthusiastic about lifting weights and add this element to my service deliveries to clients.

We as a family have been visiting for about 18 months now. Always have a great time. Always look forward to going. As a fifty something-year-old, I enjoy great strength, knowledge, & confidence that I'm now on a path that is sustainable, consistent & never boring. Claude has given us the confidence to train alone & my history of injuries is now in check & prevented. He has been a much-appreciated addition to my teen son's strength & stability, coaching him in boxing & lifting & giving him greater confidence in his sports endeavours & the tools to train well & wise moving forward. With the knowledge we have acquired we are able to ride the pandemic wave & can't wait to get back on board.

I have been training with Claude for 18 months now and couldn't be happier. Claude listens to exactly what your goals are and is happy to change with my training needs. My sporting performance has definitely improved as has my knowledge of training techniques and equipment. Claude is not only a great trainer but also a fantastic teacher. Highly Recommend.

Claude, you are a true inspiration, your knowledge, attitude, awareness, flexibility and humor makes training with you enjoyable. Let me say this, When your in there with Claude, it’s truly a one on one situation. No loud music, no fancy ab rollers, no wall to wall mirrors, no yellin at you to give you one more coz he wants to see you in pain, nope....just good solid knowledge and understanding on fitness, nutrition and life in general. He respects my knowledge, my goals and where I’m at physically and knows when to push and when not to and he allows my training to fit in with his workouts I can’t say enough great things about him and the way he conducts himself and his business.
