VICTORIA WELLNESS PROFESSIONALS SETS NEW STANDARDS FOR PERSONAL FITNESS TRAINERS

Victoria, B.C. October 2004 – Victoria Wellness Professionals announces an educational partnership with the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), the leader in education and professional development for fitness professionals.

The education and certification of personal trainers are important topics in today’s fitness industry.  With so much negative publicity about a lack of professionalism among personal trainers, Victoria Wellness has taken a proactive approach to guarantee that its trainers deliver the highest calibre of service to its members and the community.

Although Victoria Wellness has always taken a serious approach to hiring personal trainers – demanding the highest level of expertise, professionalism and safety knowledge, its NASM partnership has taken these standards to a new level.

More than 300 companies in the U.S. and Canada provide certifications for personal trainers, all with their own set of criteria.  Victoria Wellness has determined that NASM provides the most outstanding education for personal trainers with its exclusive Optimum Performance Training TM (OPT TM) method.  Used on thousands of recreational, collegiate, professional and Olympic athletes worldwide, OPTTM integrates revolutionary techniques and philosophies, creating a new approach to training that is highly personalized for each client, resulting in maximum benefit.

NASM sets the standard for excellence in the fitness industry.  By partnering with NASM, Victoria Wellness Professionals offers personal trainers and members significant benefit through state-of-the-art fitness education and nationally acclaimed programs.

Victoria Wellness is located at #211-1551 Cedar Hill X Road, Victoria, B.C.  For more information, call 250-382-2355
