Stuart has over 15 years of experience in the fitness industry as a personal trainer, gym owner, and educator. After acquiring his Kinesiology degree at the University of Winnipeg, he became a certified personal trainer and exercise physiologist through CSEP. He started his own business in 2008, opening two gyms in Winnipeg.

Stuart’s background in athletic therapy helped build his foundation for personal training. His expertise of training adults with chronic injuries quickly became his niche. Helping clients understand how and why their bodies were responding in specific ways to past injuries, weaknesses, or limitations; allowed his clients to train with the confidence needed to reach their goals.

Stuart has consistently remained involved in educating and teaching fitness. He taught labs at the University of Winnipeg, and was involved with the Manitoba Fitness Council for seven years, teaching and certifying hundreds of other personal trainers and fitness instructors.

Stuart’s personal interest in fitness over the years has been in recreational sports (soccer, ultimate, tennis, swimming, hockey, badminton), calisthenics, weightlifting, cycling, running, and hiking. As a father, he values sharing the joy and importance of a healthy balanced lifestyle with his growing daughter.
