Train as an individual, couple, or small group
Share, save, and have more fun!
In addition to one-to-one personal training, we also offer small group personal training for couples, families, and small groups of two to four people.

Convenient and beautiful location in West Point Grey
Our location at 2083 Alma Street (corner of Alma and 5th) is easy to reach by transit and has lots of free parking.
Our well-equipped gym has massive windows (some of which open wide) on all sides, ensuring a bright, welcoming environment, even on rainy Vancouver days.
We often incorporate the beautiful outdoor space that surrounds us into our personal training workouts, using Jericho Beach for longer runs, 8th Avenue for hill work, and the route around Jericho Village for shorter runs and weight carrying exercises.
Yes, we train youth athletes too
Young athletes can also benefit from the individualized attention of a personal coach.

About Personal Training at Empower
Life changing
"I started going to Empower Fitness about 8 months ago and it has been life changing! I have never been a very sporty person, but thanks to the personal training sessions I feel stronger and healthier than ever before. The coaches are very experienced and knowledgeable and can adapt all exercises to your abilities and goals.
Personal training works better for me with my schedule, but from what I have seen the group classes are fun and it feels like a community where everyone knows and supports each other."
- Tarik O.
Encouraging and supportive
"It has been an amazing journey at CrossFit Empower with Leon. My husband and I really look forward to our training sessions. As beginners to CrossFit, Leon has been really thoughtful and has customized our exercise regime based on our fitness and ability levels while being extremely considerate of our safety. He has been very encouraging and supportive and keeps us motivated to attain our health goals. We just love being a part of this gym.

A champion in my corner
"Sometimes you need someone in your corner to give you advice, give you a gentle push or just to have someone who is listening. Amy is there every step of the way with keen insights and thoughts, a champion in my corner, someone to keep me on track and someone who tells me that what I have done is enough, even when I feel like I am failing."
