Don McKibbin
Although a civil engineer by profession, Don’s passion and lifestyle has always involved fitness and sports, from track/cross-country and numerous team sports in high school and university on to men’s rugby, basketball, volleyball, and even Canadian Nationals for Slo-pitch. As part of an active lifestyle, family time with his wife and two sons has included hiking, surfing, scuba-diving, mountain climbing, snow-shoeing, canoeing, and even family boot camps just to name a few “fun” family activities.
Don has been in the fitness industry for over 30 years now and believes in a total lifestyle approach to health and fitness including the often-neglected aspects of proper sleep and hydration. With a variety of YMCA, Manitoba Fitness Council (MFC), and Yogafit Canada certifications, he can provide clients with one-on-one or group programs at any level from beginner to expert, tailored specifically to personal client needs and goals. Don has extensive class and program experience including strength and resistance/boot camp/Interval/Kick-boxing/Sport conditioning/spinning (cycle)/ flexibility and balance/yoga, and also specialized Heart Rehabilitation classes through the Prairie-Mountain RHA.
For Don the most rewarding part of working with people from all walks of life is helping them make meaningful and sustainable health and lifestyle changes while keeping it challenging, sociable, and fun at the same time.
