Reviews of Craven SPORT services Training Centre (Driving School)

Benjamin Hoy

I hurt my knee 10+ years ago. Since then, I’ve gone to various physiotherapists/trainers, which helped a little bit, but my knee never felt strong or stable. I didn’t regain the ability to run without pain or to do a lunge without feeling like I was going to tip over. About three months ago I started going to Craven’s Sports Training center with fairly low expectation. The results have been better than I could have imagined thanks to the work of Sam (my primary trainer) and Dean (Supervised training). My knee is stronger than it has been at any time in the last decade and feels like it is getting close to 100% of what it had been prior to the injury. I can do lunges and a whole host of one-legged activities without feeling like my knee is going to buckle. Three months into the program (designed to rebuild the muscles that had atrophied) I tried running hard for the first time in years. I was able to run almost as fast as I had been able to prior to my injury despite terrible cardio. My legs felt great. Best of all, my knee pain was a fraction of what it used to be. The staff here are fantastic. Sam is a world-class instructor who is supportive, knowledgeable and extremely good at balancing the difficulty of a program to meet my changing abilities. The facility takes COVID seriously and I really like the ways they’ve created stations so you can remain a good distance from other patrons. I kind of hope that structure remains after COVID as it works really well. Overall, a top quality facility with excellent instructors.

I am very happy with the GLAD-Canada program (for osteoarthritis), I'm so pleased with my results after 7 weeks of the 8 week program which I am enrolled in. I'm also very happy with the Covid-19 protocols that are in place for the protection of staff and clients. Updated May 17, 2022 I started with the GLA-D program which was very beneficial. As I had advanced beyond GLA-D, Jared suggested switching to the S&C program, which has also been a great benefit to my recovery. I also like the scheduling flexibility of the S&C program.

Great place to train for anyone! Great trainers and have put lots of necessary COVID procedures into place.

I have been doing supervised training at the Craven Training Center for a few months now following a knee surgery. Everyone I’ve worked with has been attentive, helpful and knowledgeable. I feel safe with their COVID protocols and actually really enjoy having my own “zone” to work in and have all the equipment I need in one lane to do my workouts. Very well run and great staff. Would highly recommend to any athlete trying to improve their training or person recovering from an injury or surgery. Well done!

This is the best training/gym facility I have ever attended. The staff are friendly and professional. It is with their feedback and attention that I've been able to make more progress than I ever have before. The facilities are also very clean - and I haven't had any concerns about COVID.

Awesome supportive environment and staff! Every single staff member I have come in contact with has been friendly and professional. Really noticing results from the osteoarthritis program... Jared is amazing and pays attention to all aspects as needed and keeps great communication with the training supervisors as to the individualized program and changes as needed. I would encourage anyone to connect with Craven as needed!

Craven Sport Services cares about their clients and community. I've been working with members of the Craven staff for 13 years now and feel like I am a part of the family. They celebrate my achievements, discuss future plans and how we can get there, and they check in on my emotional well-being to ensure I am in the right mindset to complete a hard workout. I love it here and would absolutely recommend the services provided to anyone. I've worked through physio programs for several different sport related injuries and have always come back stronger by the time my injury healed.

Craven training Center has drastically improved my mobility. I started coming here just to improve my functional mobility and have gained so much more than that! I look at myself differently and when asked to try more difficult variations of movements there is no longer any doubt or trepidation but a confident willingness to challenge myself. I have worked with a number of the trainers here and all of them are helpful and supportive of my goals. When you can work out right next to elite athletes and are made to feel like you belong, you have come to the right place! Everyone belongs here.

If you are tired of letting Osteoarthritis get in the way of you living a full life, give Craven Sport a call . I had a terrific experience with Jared as my coach. I am continuing my strength a mental training in an ongoing class that you can use daily or a couple times a week . It really is life changing.
