About Fitness Essentials

Fitness Essentials was founded in 2002 by Dan and Steph Green. With four locations around Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, we provide greater flexibility by not only being close to your home, but actually coming to your place of residence if need be. We are personal in every sense of the word. We are acutely involved in your life, your diet, your training, and of course, the vision you would like achieve.

Our professionally certified personal trainers can offer you direction, and a framework of success. We listen to you, and by working around your busy schedule, we are able to provide motivation – every day of the week, whether it's through email, phone calls, positive thinking, and during your personal training sessions.

The Fitness Essentials Difference

We will come to your home and train you there.

Many of our clients are post-natal or pre-natal mothers. When you have your hands full, you don't have the luxury or time to travel to sessions. We will do that for you. We will come to your home, fully equipped, and take you through a personal exercise regime that suits your style, to that will make you feel healthier, happier and more confident about your body.

We don't believe in long-term contracts.

We are professional trainers, not salespeople, so that is all we focus on. We don't want to rope you into a contract you are uncomfortable with. We don't want to profit from your laziness. Our mission is one thing: we want you to reach your personal fitness goal.

We work at your pace. If you are happy, we keep going. We want to help people who come into the gym to get healthy with a smile on their face.

We are flexible.

The first thing we will ask when you come in is – if you could rank the three things in priority, what would come first, second, and third? Knowing this, we can build an exercise regime around your personality and desires.

How would you rank the following in terms of your personal training goals:

Time Dedicated to Workout Program
Efficiency
Enjoyment
Challenging

When you have established your priorities, we will work around them. It is our job to ensure that your personal training in Vancouver is exactly what you want it to be.
