Register for fitness training

Get started with a personal trainer

Book 1, 3, 5, or 10 sessions, either privately or with a friend. Your first session may include a discussion of your goals, an assessment of your fitness level, an introduction to the equipment, and suggestions for proceeding. Session times depend on trainer availability and facility hours.

The following procedure applies to most fitness centres, but some centres may ask for different documents and offer different services. Confirm with the centre of your choice when you register.

  How to register for personal training

  1. If you want, browse personal trainer profiles to find a trainer whose specialty matches your interests. And check out our personal training fees.
  2. Register for a personal training program online or in-person at the fitness centre of your choice.
  3. Before the first session, download, complete, and obtain these documents:
     1. A Personal Trainer Request Form (563 KB)
     2. A Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire form (PAR-Q+) (520 KB)
        • If you are pregnant: PARmed-X (307 KB)
     3. If you answered "yes" to any of the questions on the PAR-Q+ form, a note from your doctor or physiotherapist is required. The note must confirm that you can proceed with fitness training.
  4. Before the first session, scan and email the completed forms to the programmer at the fitness centre you want to train at. Or, bring them to the fitness centre in person.
