About Highland Fitness and Wellness
We founded Highland Fitness and Wellness with a clear mission: to create a gym that offers a comprehensive approach to health and fitness for everyone. As both of us are academics who value ongoing learning, we wanted to combine evidence-based exercise science in a multidisciplinary approach to personal training and help individuals achieve their fitness goals using various methods. Additionally, we envisioned our gym as a vital "third place" in the community. We wanted to provide the Highland Creek neighbourhood, Scarborough, Durham, and the surrounding area a space for individuals to form new connections and socialize outside their work and home environments.
At Highland Fitness and Wellness, we have fostered a personalized atmosphere while creating an environment where individuals can interact, get to know each other, and build new relationships. Our gym is not just a place to work out but a community where you can connect with others who share a fitness journey.
If you're looking for a gym that embraces different forms of exercise, such as strength, cardio, and mobility and is committed to working collaboratively to help you reach your fitness goals, then Highland Fitness and Wellness is the perfect place for you.
