When I left Orangetheory fitness I was the fastest, strongest, and leanest I'd been in years. Due…read moreto an unforeseen injury (stress fracture on my foot), I moved away from Orangetheory and tried CrossFit, working out on my own at the YMCA, and other boutique studios in the city. During Covid I started homeschooling my kids. I quickly stopped making fitness a priority. I had been wresting with getting back to a gym when management reached out about coming back to try a class. All it took was one class - I forgot how much I loved it! A gal recently asked me why I returned, and I told her that I was now the slowest, weakest, and fattest I've been in years, so I decided to return to the place that I know gets the job done! With hard work, perseverance, and stellar coaching staff, I'm starting to see my body transform. This place brings out my inner athlete and my competitive side, but it's not about comparing myself to others - every time I look in the mirror it's me against me. I've promised myself that I'm going to keep coming until I see the person in the mirror who reflects the person I want to be. I want to give a shout out to Matt and Khrista (the studio owners). You not only fill your studios with motivating, caring trainers, you genuinely care about people's health and wellness. You have created a community that people are excited to be part of and a place they enjoy working out it. Michelle Parks

Great gym on 14th Street near Kensington…read more I've been a member since the beginning and I've tried some classes and personal training sessions. The classes are good, especially pilates! I love my trainer Wendy... she's a machine! The equipment is great, and machines feel high end. Plus, from what I have seen so far, there is a minimal amount of douchy gym rats there! ;) Very nice change rooms and a couple of large showers. I guess the only down side is the size of the classroom, which limits the number of people who can take the classes. I see that as a good thing, because I prefer smaller classes, but it may get crowded.

The trainers are extremely knowledgeable, approachable and genuinely have a passion for what they do. Tasneem, the owner, personally greeted me and took the time to welcome me to the studio on my first day. All the trainers I have met know me by name. The music is always great and general ambiance is unlike any other studio I've been to (I've tried multiple spin studios, barre studios, boxing studios etc). They offer a range of workout classes at different times during the day that are incredibly effective. You are guaranteed to walk out feeling amazing after every class. The classes are small which allows the trainers to give you personal tips and correct your form if needed. To me, this really set Square1 apart because I feel like they actually care that I am doing everything the right way which has helped me maximize my workout. Sometimes, it felt like a personal training session (esp when classes are smaller). Their attention to detail is remarkable. As you progress, the trainers will also suggest personal modifications. I love that they are able to gage wether you should increase weight/intensity because they actually pay attention to your progress over time. Although, the space is on the smaller side, it does not feel cramped and is kept very clean. I love how this studio feels so different than other 'boutique studios' - nothing pretentious, fussy, or "extra" about this place. If you are looking for an amazing full body strength workout and/or would like to try kickboxing - THIS IS THE BEST STUDIO IN THE CITY!!!!!! I'll stop now but I really could go on and on and on...

I could not locate ITTA in the business directory *** I signed up for a one-on-one Restricted and Non-Restricted PAL (Possession and Acquisition License) course offered by ITTA. My one-on-one training was delivered by Orlando Mancina, the Founder and Training Director at ITTA. Without question, ITTA (and Orlando himself) went above and beyond and far exceeded my expectations. Being a female and a novice with firearms, PAL certification and hands-on training can be intimidating. I found Orlando to be very personable, respectful, relaxed and ethical. Despite decades of international experience and being a respected expert, Orlando did a phenomenal job of making me feel relaxed and comfortable in handling various types of firearms, "demystifying" them and making them approachable, while emphasizing safety and teaching me an appreciation for the dangers associated with firearms - in essence, very balanced instruction. The ITTA facility itself is welcoming, professional and orderly (though rumour has it, ITTA/Ninpo will be building a brand new, larger facility in the next year or so). Kindly ask to see the office - a beautiful collection of Ninjutsu and Kenjutsu regalia. If you have not viewed it yet, I would encourage you to visit the ITTA website (http://www.ittacanada.com/); it is informative, well designed, easy to navigate, and has some great photos! Be sure to check out the instructors' credentials - it is an impressive team. THE BOTTOM LINE: I would highly recommend ITTA to anyone, but particularly to women. While ITTA offers advanced instruction (such as Close Quarter Combat) in addition to the PAL, Orlando (and I suspect the rest of the team as well) is very respectful, humble and relaxed. If anything, women (and men alike!) will feel empowered and be equipped with the right theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience to be a responsible firearm user. I am now a lifetime client, and will definitely return for additional classes.

Since they had just recently opened, they had a one week free trial going on when I went. I think that offer is over now, but I think there's occasional specials that occur though out the year. Totally worth it to ask if you decide to go there. The instructors are super nice! Master Kim, Adrian and Danny were super accommodating to a newbie like me. Master Kim made sure to check how each person was doing throughout the class, making sure that each of us were able to keep up. His instructions were clear and easy to understand throughout the class and he was super patient in making sure we were doing the moves properly. As there were several different levels attending the class, the instructors would teach us individually as well to help us focus on certain moved based on our "belt" level. I only went for two classes during the week, but would gladly go again. I was so tired after both classes! Would highly recommend them if you're looking for something new to try out :)
