Hey! I'm Jax.
JAXFitness is something I've been working on for quite some time. As I've developed, grown and figured out who I am, so has my idea of business and what I want to offer. Ultimately - JAXFitness came down to building community with like minded individuals that are willing and eager to make positive changes in their lives to live a better, well rounded lifestyle. ​
I realized that I crave community - and so do the majority of humans. When you live somewhere for a period of time, and you start to recognize familiar faces - the person at the coffee shop who knows your name, the people you see regularly at the gym the same time as you becomes a sense of comfort that we truly appreciate.

Hi, I’m Alex!
I played water polo for over a decade, representing Canada internationally at events such as the FISU World University Games. I hold a BSc in Kinesiology and Sport Studies and a certificate in sustainability. Paired with experience in the bike industry, I have developed a foundation in movement and performance. I use that experience to create a welcoming, personalized environment that helps clients navigate their fitness journey, connect with the right services, and feel confident in their training.
Outside of work, you’ll find me in the gym or in the mountains, where I stay connected to my passion for performance through downhill mountain biking and freestyle skiing.

Hello! My name is Calvin.
I have been in the fitness industry for over 15 years, working as a personal trainer, fitness coach, fitness instructor; and have been a mentor to people who are new to the industry.
The majority of the people I work with fall under the “general fitness” crowd; in other words, normal people with everyday problems like the vast majority of the population. I like helping this group, because it does not take much to make a positive change in their lives; however, the majority of them don’t know where to start or what the next step should be.
I look at what you bring to me as a problem to solve and help you to find a solution to get you moving in the right direction. Come talk with me, and together, we can open some paths for you to explore in your journey to health and fitness.

Hey There!
My name is Josh. I've been teaching yoga for 12 years and I love to share this magical practice with the people in my classes. I found yoga shortly after a career change away from the corporate sector. Yoga has helped me find my "Flow State", a state of being where time disappears and nothing else matters but what is happening right at that moment. I love sharing the many styles of yoga I am trained in, from power yoga to relaxing restorative yoga. There is style for everyone! I can't wait for you to join a practice with me!

Hi, I'm Juli!
I have developed a deep appreciation for Pilates and have been teaching for over 10 years. Drawing from a wide range of movement modalities, I weave these influences into my classes to enrich each client’s experience.
My philosophy centers on three key elements: cultivating body awareness, creating alignment, and improving functional movement. By encouraging a deeper sensitivity to subtle movement and breath, I guide clients toward moving with greater ease, strength, and connection in both their practice and daily lives.

Hey there, I'm Andie!
As an avid fan of movement, I formalized my obsession with moving and capabilities with a Kinesiology degree at the U of A. Jumping into fitness first as a certified personal trainer, broadening into group instruction, and then progressing into a collection of different ability instruction. I started with a combined spin class including both handcycles and spin bikes. I then expanded my education and training with a multitude of modality specialities and added 200hr Yoga teacher Training after many years of personal practice. These courses, education, and practice are ever expanding and help me become an inclusive instructor across all avenues. Everyday is a day to learn, practice, and appreciate what you can, might, and will do!

Hi I'm Paige!
After achieving my own weight loss goals, I developed a passion for helping others feel strong, confident, and capable in their bodies. Since earning my Personal Fitness Trainer Diploma in 2018, I’ve worked with a wide range of clients, including elite-level youth hockey players, building a strong foundation in both general fitness and sports performance.
Following a car accident in 2019, I expanded my expertise into injury rehabilitation, which led me to complete a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and Biology. As a Clinical Exercise Physiologist, I’m able to support clients with more complex needs and provide a higher level of care.
I also hold a Sports Nutrition Advisor Master certification and take a well-rounded approach to health, incorporating nutrition, psychology, and hormonal health to help clients achieve sustainable results.
