Reviews of Innovative Fitness North Vancouver (Gym)

Karan Khiani

Diego, Ben and the entire team at IF North Van is top notch. My partner and I take couples sessions here and the IF team truly cares about understanding each of our goals and adapting the sessions to adjust for our individual body needs. They have also done a great job of adapting to COVID and we are happy with our progress here.

Carlos Villavicencio

Before joining IF I had big expectations of the place and the coaches, I heard really good things about it. After 3 months of training twice a week, I realized it's better than all the good things I heard about. The entire team is amazing, the professionalism, care, facilities, and in general, the environment and enthusiasm of everybody gets to make you work better and to have fun. Well done IF North Vancouver, a true example of a well run business!

Kathleen Mahannah

I've been working out at IF circuits at another location for years, and I'm thrilled that there is now a North Van location. I'm now training 2x a week and really thrilled with the team and the space at IF North Van. Coming from a kinesiology background and as a former varsity athlete, I prefer working with knowledgeable trainers who have a solid base in the science of exercise, and I certainly get that and more with this team. I was impressed with their thorough assessment at my first visit (beyond just the standard body composition, they looked at muscle imbalances/weaknesses) from which they created a tailored plan for me. Not only have I attained my goal of regaining my strength and fitness but they also identified and supported a muscle imbalance that I wasn't even aware of. It's now fixed after just a few months of work with the IF team. I highly recommend :)

Olga Gyozumyan

I recently tried personal training sessions with Innovative fitness and I am extremely impressed by professionalism of their staff and the innovative approach. I learned so much about how to train more effectively and also I had a great massage therapy at the end, which made me even happier . Highly recommend!

Leslie Kerluke

My wife and I recently started training with Ben, Richard and Sarah at the newly opened IF North Vancouver location. It has been a great experience with a high energy team who really get you know you and your specific goals and fitness needs. When we signed up the location was just in the final construction phase and when we started training it was beautiful and clearly well designed - we are looking forward to continuing our fitness and general health training with the IF North Vancouver group for many months to come.

Amelia Keller

This place is the “go-to” when it comes to personal training. If you are looking step up your game, be apart of an awesome community and reach goals, IF North Van, is it. With Ben’s experience and expertise, you can Whether you are just starting to workout, trying to find a routine or a professional, you can count on Ben and his team to take you to another level of fitness.

Michael “haans” Lee

Ben was a pleasure to talk to for the consultation, fantastic philosophy of no bs heavy accountability type of trainer, the new gym is very promising 4 squat racks! unfortunately u cannot really open gym it unless ur going on cardio machines so only personal training pretty much, ill be coming back for sure for the trial session with him!

Chad Walmsley

Love the atmosphere and positive vibes from the training team and staff! I had an awesome workout with Vinne the other day! I would highly recommend innovative fitness!

Katharine Wall

Innovative Fitness and the remarkable people here have had a huge impact on my life. I was very intimidated to go to any kind of gym, and getting over that fear long enough to go and meet Ben and his team has changed my life in ways I can't even believe. Just go meet them. You will only wish you had gone sooner.

Mike Mahannah

Ben and his staff are very talented, and the best part is that they listen for what I need and make sure I get it. I am 63 and my fitness is critical to me and staying healthy and strong matters. They make sure that I stay strong and healthy so I can keep being very active. They also make it fun to work out. I'd strongly recommend their studio.

Shin Inagaki

This place is sooo clean and people are so energetic! Washroom / change room is MINT clean!????

Troy Strachan

I signed up to get some personal training to help strengthen my injury plagued shoulders in a safe environment. Little did I know I'd make friends, and learn a whole lot about myself and my body. The entire team is welcoming, friendly and easy to get along with, not to mention extremely knowledgeable in health related field. Dal, has been instrumental in helping me transform my eating habits which has led to the majority of my weight loss. Karson, Idris and Vinnie have been great in helping me strengthen my body and helping me identify areas that I need to focus on. Each of these guys have been great on a professional and personal levels. I'm proud to say I consider everyone at IF friends now! I highly recommend IF North Van if you're considering making changes in your personal health and wellness.

Mars W

Ben is a great man and operates with integrity all the way down. He and his staff are highly knowledgeable in the way the body works and moves, and he will be able to set you on the right path to reach your fitness goals and live the lifestyle you'd like.

Thomas Maxey

After a month in at 3x a week, I'm still learning new workouts from every session! Great communication between instructors makes for a tightly knit family. Train here!

Allison Gandy

I can't say enough amazing things about this gym. From bringing me back from a number of fairly serious injuries, to holding me accountable so I ACTUALLY go to the gym, to celebrating my successes (big and small) and making me the strongest I have ever been - I am so grateful to Ben and his amazing crew. I am a really active person as is, I love spending time in the mountains, but I kept getting injured and I couldn't figure out why. On top of it, my busy life ruined any good habits I ever started in the gym - but IF found a way to tackle all of that. I can't recommend any fitness based program more. The IF North Van community is so supportive and engaging, you really get so much more than just health and fitness! (Plus they have a studio puppy. It doesn't get better than that!).

Kelly Doll

Great space and super friendly staff. The Trainers are very approachable and knowledgeable. I would recommend IF north Vancouver to anyone.

Alexa Freudigmann

If you really want to make change - this is the place to do it! Great staff with kinesiology backgrounds who work with you, motivate and challenge you. I’ve been with IF for 3 years and it was the right decision! Leave the meatheads and try it!

Tom Lancaster

The absolute best trainers you'll ever work with, and in the best and safest facility. One of the trainers couldn't make the 2019 charity stair climb, so they talked me into the most fun I've ever had climbing stairs :) Lovin it!

Susan Goble

Ben and the team at Innovative Fitness take the time to get to know you and go above and beyond to help you achieve all of your fitness goals. They are more than personal trainers and coaches, they are your cheerleaders who are as excited about the progress you make as you are. Fantastic team, that makes exercise fun and rewarding. Susan Goble

Anthony Smith

What IF I could?! The team of pros at Innovative Fitness are amazing people. They have fun, they care and they know how to get you to your goals! I would recommend the North Van team to anyone!

max kerr

Great facility. Amazing Coaches-Sarah. Ben, Rich all make the sessions a challenge and enjoyable.

Majid

So expensive????

Bijan Jiany

My workplace is next door to Ben and getting to chance to watch him and his amazing coaches train their members is worth mentioning. They are all so inspiring because they truly care for the well-being of their members and their workouts look fun, intense, and appropriate to who they're training. Keep up the amazing work at IF!

Kris Lazaruk

IF North Vancouver is first class. The personal trainers take the time to build a program specific to your lifestyle, all while placing achievable goals that make each workout challenging yet enjoyable. Very impressed with everyone.

Terry Craig

Innovative helped me get into the shape that I always wanted to be in, the trainers are amazing, super knowledgeable and I'm challenged with new techniques and exercises every time I walk thru the door. Get off the couch and get in there.

Treya Klassen

20 years ago I walked into the door of Innovative fitness after having my first child, They got me back in shape, motivated and inspired. 2 children later, busy business owner, full travel schedule and I am back to regain my fitness, and health. I love this place, I love the people that work here and the leadership of this brand. Thank you Ben and team for everything you do daily. I look forward to my workouts everyday with you.

Devon Owen

Love this place and the people!

Vannessa Holmes

A girlfriend and I started training with IF about one month ago. The instant you walk into the facility you’re welcomed by the lovely Nevada. Ben has built a very talented team of highly knowledgeable, motivated and fun trainers. They push us every session and keep us laughing throughout each exercise. The facility is beautiful, newly renovated and extremely bright. Training at IF has been a fantastic experience, and I feel fortunate to have such a great team pushing me to reach my personal fitness goals!

Joshua David

I started a year ago at IF looking mostly to improve my energy levels. Energy reserves have dramatically improved with training. An unexpected side effect of training was the improvement in my long standing issues (hip and Shoulders). I give credit to the expertise that the IF trainers (Kinesologists, athletic therapists) bring to the training sessions. Highly recommended if you are looking for a training experience that brings both professional expertise and personalized plans

Patrick Lefebvre

Working with a coach makes a huge difference! The IF approach to fitness has helped me reached my goals but, more importantly, stay in better shape for the long run.

Elaine Davies

It will be a year soon that I've been training with IF and I only have to say that If I compare myself to a year ago... SO fearful That my back pain could came back at any moment after a wrong move during my workouts. It did happened many times with other gyms that I have been to. Or the PT just gave up on challenging me to new things and kept me a routine that was soo safe that didn't challenged me at all. Ben did an amazing assessment from the beginning tailoring each exercise to my needs, day after day along with all coaches ( JD, Dal, Pam,Vinnie and Sarah doesn't train me but she is a shinny star of support) helping me to be patient but persistent on learning what my body could do without injuries.Plus on the extra side you have all the events/fundraisings that IF organizes so you can take your fitness into your real life. I brought my husband to IF and we totally recommend it .

Gary Foster

Amazing trainers.

Julie McAdam

My husband and I had weekly sessions with Ben and the team for over a year. Prior to covid we enjoyed the boot camps and boxing training . Everyone is amazing and supportive . Never made us feel uncomfortable or incapable . Highly recommend The folks at IF and grateful for the techniques we learnt to carry us further in our healthier lifestyle .

Paula Slavicky

The team at Innovative Fitness North Van is bar none the best group of trainers I've had the pleasure to train with. They are professional, dedicated to you and your health goals and most importantly make going to the gym a positive, fun and safe experience. During these uncertain times, the team goes above and beyond to ensure their clients are safe. The studio is clean, everything is sanitized and trainers wear shields. You won't be disappointed!

Chris Clarke

I've been coming here for a year and I've consistently been pleased with the quailty of programs and the knowledge of the trainers. It's always a fun workout tailored to exactly what I need.

Danielle Marks

It seems like IF doesn't really want their trainers to improve or improve their clients lives. It's like there's a fear of improving their lives too much that they won't come back. I went through an interview process a few months ago and a friend just went through theirs as well and we both noticed the same flaws. Pretty unimpressed with their lack of "innovation".

Tommy Gerschman

I've been going to different Innovative Fitness for the past 5+ years and was super excited about the new IF North Vancouver opening up. It's a great and airy set up with an amazing door opening for fresh air out the back. The team led by Ben is super dedicated and energetic. They're always working hard to help me meet my goals and pushing me further. Great energy in an awesome space from a talented and caring group of trainers!

J C

Best investment I have made in myself in the last 15 years. After working out with them for 6 months, many of my back/shoulders issues have gone away, and many work related stress issues have been reduced. Overall health and well being has improved immensely. Trainers have been really great to work with and learn from.

Fawn McDonald

If you are looking for a safe, supportive and inclusive place to get back into exercising, recover from an injury or enhance your current routine, this is the place to be. The staff members at North Van IF are well educated, kind and fun and the brand new facility is clean, bright and accessible. You can't go wrong with this experience, it is worth every penny.

Stefan Gerber

IF you expect the very best, and can afford to enjoy the finer things in life, then you'll want to check out Innovative Fitness North Vancouver. Ben Carr and his team of Kinesiologist Trainers will take care everything. All YOU need to do is show up. Great job Ben!

Donna Giraud

I have had personal trainers for most of my adult life but there is something substantially different about IF North Vancouver. Their attention to each of their client's needs is surpassed by no other gym or training facility. I have been riddled with an injury for over 14 years and I am finally seeing some positive results because of the one on one attention and training program the team at IF has set up for me. Not only have they done extra, above and beyond research and inquiry specifically about my injury, they have continuously stayed in contact with my physiotherapist to make sure they are providing me with all the appropriate exercises and staying within my prescribed limitations. Ben and Sarah specifically have invested an enormous amount of time in me and have given me hope that I will soon be injury free. IF North Vancouver not only has a training philosophy that elicits results, they also have a passion for creating friendships and a sense of community. As long as I have the ability to train, I will forever be an IF client!

Roberta Domanski

Love this place ????

Stirling Richmond

I'm an ex-professional athlete who has trained with a lot of various highly skilled trainers for over the past 15 years. I am 37 years old and have move away from classic weight training, and into Calisthenics (not CrossFit). I had searched for a trainer for over a year who could help me, without any luck, and was introduced to Ben at IF NVan through a work colleague. I've been training Calisthenics with Ben for 4 months and have seen significant improvement in my movement progressions and overall strength. Ben keeps me focused on form and proper muscle engagement to ensure I'm building a solid foundation. If I had known the things I've learned from Ben in the past few months, I would have trained much differently when I was playing sport professionally. I'd highly recommend IF North Vancouver to anyone looking to get into Calisthenics (not CrossFit) or is just looking to improve their overall health and fitness.

T G

Very patient and professional trainers. Friendly environment and im seeing good results.

Aryo Falakrou

Very nice people

Brian Wilson

Wow. Full body movement assessment, and then custom workouts so your muscles are working properly. Highly recommend them!

Tanya Geisinger

Finally, the right fit! 5 years of chronic pain & reoccurring injuries. For the first time in my 20 plus years of lifting I was out of the gym. I took a year off as I tried various therapies, all just managing the pain. In 3 months, since meeting the team at Innovative North Van., my shoulder & lower back pain is gone! The Key? The knowledgeable trainers & friendly community at innovative. Ben put me in touch with an amazing physiotherapist who communicates with my trainers to create a plan best suited for me. My workouts are fun & challenging!! I love the added option of online training should I travel or decide to stay home. I'm grateful to have found the place!!

Mary Battle

The staff and philosophy at IF North Van are professional, knowledgeable and hold you accountable. They care about you and your goals. No matter what level of fitness you’re at, they’ll help you reach your goals and your ultimate level of fitness. Although I don’t live in North Van, it’s worth it for me to travel there every week!

Zina Alkafaji

I joined IF after conceiving, worked out safely throughout my pregnancy, was back in the gym 2 weeks postpartum and have now been there for 2.5 years. All the trainers are fabulous and I feel very safe with respect to COVID protocols. It is worth every penny, highly recommend!

Denise Salmon

I would highly recommend Ben Carr and his team at Innovative Fitness! I came to them with ongoing hip/back issues that they have been able to address and work with while building strength and flexibility. Even when I have a flare up, I get hands on treatment that rivals anything else I have done as far as getting relief. I feel like I am in the right hands to continue a lifetime of fitness and health. I am really impressed with their knowledge, approach and results. Thanks to a very enthusiastic, supportive team!

Fiona Crowther

I have been a member of Innovative Fitness for 6 years now, originally at Port Moody and more recently, due to a move, to the North Vancouver studio under Ben Carr and the team. You are not just joining a personal training studio with THE best trainers in the industry, you are joining a community. Its not just a question of show up and do a workout and then leave, they really care about your overall lifestyle and offer all aspects of eating well, training well and living your best life. From the moment you contact them you will feel like a valued member and the trainers work with you to help you achieve your goals. Add in fun events and challenges throughout the year and why look anywhere else? North Van IF has it all! A word on COVID protocols - you wont find anywhere cleaner or safer and also offer in home virtual workouts if you cant make it in to the studio or have to be home based for any reason. Stop searching and call them today!

Anthony Fortunaso

I've been going to IF for about 6 months now and it's been an amazing experience. I used to eat extremely unhealthy and use every excuse in the book to not work out. They have changed my outlook on everything. I haven't touched fast food, have lost roughly 25lbs, and even completed my first adventure challenge race! Every single trainer is awesome and friendly. They tailor the program to fit YOU specifically, and genuinely care about. 10/10 recommend

Alexia M

I have visited another Innovative Fitness (IF) location, in addition to several other personal training studios, and IF North Van is hands down my favorite! The equipment, studio space and the trainers make working out at 6 am totally doable. Also Sarah and Richard have been great in creating fun and challenging work outs, while working around my injuries. Looking forward to continuing my training with the team!

Jahan Gulamani

Innovative Fitness is an awesome facility with great, friendly, attentive trainers that really care about your personal health and well-being. They personalize your whole experience and make it enjoyable yet results driven at the same time. I would highly recommend giving them an opportunity to show you what they are all about!

Harman Mangat

IF North Van is a state of the art facility with an amazing team! I look forward to my visits and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone I know.

Andrea Neumann

IF North Van is not only a really great gym, but it houses some incredible trainers. They take the time to really get to know you and tailor your workouts specific to your needs, injuries, mobility issues, strengths and weaknesses. There is no "canned workout" here like so many big box gyms create. Ben and JD have pushed me further than any trainer ever has and have me accomplishing things I've never done. They push and encourage beyond the gym as well as they get their clients setting fitness goals like large bike races and running races and they will then create your workout to help make the steps towards those goals. I almost don't want to give such a great review and keep this place my little amazing secret! Proud to be part of the IF family!

Thomas Bontinen

Amazing team that’s dedicated to you. They not only put me to work but gave me the mindset of a hard worker. Beneficial for any age. Whether you’re young and want that confidence or old and want to stay in shape they have a personal plan made for you. Really impressed, thanks guys.

Bryce Eyton

Ben and his amazing group of trainers (Dal, Pam, Sarah and JD) have helped me on the road to recovery after knee surgery. Their knowledge of how the body works and tailoring an individuals workout to what a body needs is second to none. I look forward to the incredible facilities and my work outs every week!!!

Scott Smith

I have been training with Innovative Fitness for the last two years. My trainers consistently provide a premium training experience calling me each day before our workout to find out what is working well and where we need to add or make adjustments to the workout. I am in much better overall shape than two years ago and have a sustainable plan and excellent health awareness as a result of my training and more importantly relationship with IF North Van. Thanks girls & guys for everything. Scotty

BARBARA Curran

My workouts at IF North Van are worth their weight in gold. Nice facility, great trainers and a friendly open atmosphere. Can't think of a better investment in my health.

David McAdam

Awesome facility and the trainers are professional and caring. No need to ever feel intimidated starting your personal training journey here as everyone is friendly and very welcoming. Thoroughly recommended!

David Brown

My wife Jayme and I have been training with Ben and his staff for over a year and a half now. It's become part of our lives, although never routine, each session is different, challenging and fun. We've had the pleasure to train with JD, Carson, Sara, Rich and of course Ben, all of whom are knowledgeable, professional bring their own uniqueness to the gym . We're happy to feel, and be, part of the IF family. If you're looking for a fun, friendly place to train you can't go wrong with Ben and his team at IF North Van. Dave B Dave B

Gordana Stojsavljevic

Ben and his Team at IF North Van are just the best. My whole family has been training with IF North Van and we highly recommend for all ages and goals.

Bogdan Toader

Been a client at IF North Van for the past 2 years and all I can say is that they are amazing at motivating you to become the best of you. Working with IF I've been able to run marathons and also do some mud obstacle races which I had no idea that I have in me to complete such events. You have NO EXCUSE not to give them a call and try it out.

Beverley Horler

I’ve been going to IF for the past few months and love it! They have a great facility and awesome trainers. I always look forward to my morning workouts. Would highly recommend to anyone!!

Nina Ferentinos

I can't say enough amazing things about the trainers at IF. When I came to them 2 years ago I was having mobility issues with my shoulder, I was out of shape and struggling with my health. The care, attention and detail to which they implement in all their training protocol is the best I have ever experienced. They are knowledgeable and make sure you are doing the exercise correctly so you don't hurt yourself. I am in the best shape I have ever been in and it's thanks to their guidance and training expertise. I have full range of motion now with both shoulders and they continue to inspire me by setting goals and touching base with me weekly to see how I am doing. I have also lost weight, toned up and feel so much stronger and fit. I wouldn't go train anywhere else as I know I wouldn't get the same care and attention.

aly kassim-lakha

I joined the IF about 5 months ago and it has been a life changing experience. I feel amazing. My coaches have been great. They are patient, knowledgeable and they know when to push me! My balance, my core and overall strength have improved immensely in a short period of time. I know now that IF will continue to be a part of my life – thank you to all the staff at the North Vancouver location especially my coaches Nina and Emma!

Jason Zhu

(Translated) I am an amateur golf enthusiast. I have been learning to play since 2001, but I have been hovering around 90. I have found a lot of coaches to improve my movements, but my progress is slow. Until a few months ago, my coach helped me to test my body. , I found that my golf almost couldn't improve due to the wrong use of muscle parts during the on and off strokes. He suggested that I go to North Vancouver IF NORTH VANCOUVER for training. The professional term is called golf TPI. After a few months of practice, it is obvious. It has improved my golf handicap, and it is now stable at around 85. I am very grateful to the boss Ben and his colleagues for their help. At the same time, I also hope that golf-loving golfers will exercise more! (Original) 我是個业余高尔夫爱好者、从2001年开始学打球的、但是一直徘徊在90桿左右、找了好多教练去改善动作、可是进步缓慢、直到几个月前我的教練帮我进行了身体的測試、发现我上杆及下杆过程中由于运用肌肉部位的錯誤从而造成高尔夫差点无法提高、他建议我到北温IF NORTH VANCOUVER去鍛練、专业用語称做高尔夫TPI.我练了几个月后明显的提高了我高尔夫的差點、現在穩定在85杆左右、非常感謝這里老板Ben和他同事的帮助、同時也希望爱好高尔夫的球友們多去鍛練身体！

Joy MacTavish

What I like best about Innovative Fitness North Vancouver is how friendly and welcoming everyone is. It seems to me that Ben Carr has done a great job of assembling a team of trainers who are all both knowledgeable and also genuinely kind people. I would recommend this club without hesitation.

Lady Jas

I was highly recommended IF for my car accident injuries. I joined with no high expectation at first. However, I was very impressed how friendly the trainers & staff were the moment I stepped into the studio. Ben, the owner, assessed my issues thoroughly without rushing although I showed up late for my appointment. My good impression on IF continued on with my dedicated trainers Luiz (former Olympian) & Ane (former Physiotherapist) who have educated me tremendously towards my recovery. I always look forward to my sessions knowing they genuinely care for my recovery which makes me feel motivated and feel hopeful in this great teamwork. I am getting stronger slowly but surely. I have also recommended IF to a few friends of mine in other cities who can gain some help. There is no regret, I am very glad I have walked in here for a life changing experience. Thanks IF! Jasmine.

Ashley Martin

My experience at IF has been great, the trainers really know their stuff and guide me every step of the way. I appreciate that every time I go work out I give 1000% and they give it right back to me! They care about my progress and results, which keeps me motivated to keep showing up. I especially love the tailored program, and the way they track and follow up on what I’ve achieved. It feels great to have such an awesome team cheering me on and believing in me!

Lauren Webber

I absolutely love the idea behind IF! Planning group trips and working towards them is an awesome way to get people motivated to work out. Furthermore, Ben Carr lives and breathes fitness, is well travelled and cultured. It helps to have someone with such great energy and such a positive attitude leading the team!

Joshua McIntyre

Knowledgeable. Able to assess your body and give directions to help you progress. Suitable for any personality type.

Kenveer Parmar

Love this spot. Staff is very welcoming and genuinely friendly. Big thanks to Luiz for taking care of me and pushing me every week. Whatever your personalized fitness needs are, this is the spot to make them happen. Thank you IF North Vancouver team! ken

baja carr

Go get 'em Benja! So proud of the service you are providing at IF and the way you have helped so many people reach their goals! Love, Mama

Jason Teahen

Awesome trainers, great facility and well run.

Shanon Thornley

I am one of the original client of innovative fitness in north vancouver . I really feel this place has changed my life. It’s exactly what I need to manage the demands of a busy family and professional life.

Steven Velecky

Awesome, awesome, awesome. My old and bone creaking body is waking up. The mind, soul and inner self is rejoicing that I still have the energy to fully enjoy the “torture”. To me the fitness is not only the flexing muscles but overall well being. The togetherness with the instructors is unforgettable. I love it.

Susan Hardman

IF North Van has exceeded my expectations. The trainers are experienced, motivating and above all, careful.

Ben M

IF North Van is stacked with patient, motivating, intuitive, and friendly trainers. Extremely satisfied with my decision to join.

Rob Cronk

Ben is the best, very knowledgable and super great guy. I highly recommend him and his staff.

Jeff Thorpe

Great facility and staff in North Vancouver.

Golya MacDonald

I joined Innovative Fitness about 6 months ago and have had an amazing experience. I had many limitations due to injury/surgery and have improved so much with the help of Ben, Sarah, JD, Karson, Pam and Dal. I've trained with almost all of the coaches and each one is so knowledgeable, experienced, kind and brings their own touch to each workout to make it fun and challenging. Ben is extremely professional and genuinely cares about the clients as well as his staff. This is the best run gym I've ever been to and it's because of Ben and the staff's attention to detail. When I go the gym I feel as though I'm with friends that want the best for you and are rooting for you. I live downtown and happily drive to North Vancouver for my workout.

William Hung

The team at IF North Vancouver are incredible. I work out every Tuesday and Thursday with Diego and when I walk in, I'm great with a "Hi Will" from everyone....it's like walking into Cheers! The Gym is safe, clean and every trainer is constantly wiping and sanitizing the equipment all the time, which makes me feel very comfortable during these pandemic times. If you're looking to work hard, feel like your part of a family, and want to achieve your fitness goals in a safe environment, you'll love IF North Van .... ask for Diego!

Ranjeet Sundher

I joined IF North Vancouver 4 months ago figuring it was jusy another gym, albeit with good personal training. But they turned out to be much more than that...they took a very deep look into my goals, my current fitness and my overall well being and built a fun and professional approach to rebuilding my health. They cured some chronic injuries and I am now pushing through to the next level of my goals. Highly recommend popping in for a talk with a coach. Cheers.

Sharina Craig

The team at Innovative Fitness North Vancouver has been very cognizant about my COVID-19 concerns and treats their clients like family. They customize a plan based on your individual goals and hire hard working and reliable trainers who are committed to their craft. I would not hesitate to highly recommend Ben, Sarah and the team at Innovative to anyone.

Natalie Miller

Innovative fitness north van has been a such a blessing for me. New to Vancouver last year I felt like I had found a family among this gym. Everyone makes you feel so welcome and give off such a positive vibe. The trainers there are experienced, they listen really well and always have your best interest. From having two kids back to back, I have come full circle with getting my strength back, muscle memory, and just my overall health. As long as I live in Vancouver, I am definitely an IF North Van customer. Highly recommend!

Kristina Mamina

I've been a member of IF North Van for some time now and my experience both in the studio and with remote sessions has been consistently fabulous. The quality of training is always top notch - IF trainers are incredibly talented and professional. The individualized approach to each client's needs is very valuable because we don't all want or need the same things. I typically have a really hard time sticking to a fitness routine but with IF North Van I've barely missed any sessions so far. Highly recommend to everyone!

Kiran Mehdi

Great studio run by Ben and the team. They are not only competent , they are also kind and inclusive. They make you feel at home and would always go the extra mile . My son and I love working out here. Special shout out to Afeef !!!

Emelie Hoyer

I started working out in this facility after my other gym was closed down due to Covid outbreaks. IF has an excellent protocol for keeping all of us safe during our work outs. I have arthritis and the trainers have modified my work outs so that I do not aggravate my joints. In the past 6 months I have become stronger, my balance has improved and I'm pain free even after a hard day of skiing. I have worked out with 5 of the trainers and they each bring something new and fun to the work out.I have referred friends and family and we all agree that we'll be staying as Innovative Fitness regulars!

Martin Allen

I would definitely recommend IF to anyone who has a fitness goal or, as in my case, a specific health and fitness challenge. I had had neck surgery a year earlier and found that even after I had healed I still had trouble with normal exercise like hiking and biking. I was very frustrated after seeing several physiotherapists and a chiropractor without being offered any practical solutions. The team at IF were quick to see what my issues were and I felt positive results by the end of my second visit. I worked mostly with JD and Idris who were great...somehow motivating but easygoing at the same time. JD in particular came up with new exercises every session to help me isolate what I needed to work on. I’m in my 50s and I was shown that most of what I learned about stretching and exercise was outdated. Bottom line...after a month I am more optimistic now than I have ever been since my surgery that I will be able to get back to doing the activities that I enjoy.

Bryce Hamming

Been training with the gang at IF North Van for the last year and a half. I am fairly active in the typical North shore outdoor activities like mountain biking, hiking and skiing but needed assistance in cross training to enhance mobility, stability and flexibility and strengthen other muscles not used in these outdoor pursuits. The results have been great with a lot of the chronic pain I experienced before joining IF North Van significantly alleviated. On the trail and on the slopes, the training at IF North Van has made for better performance, quicker recovery and reaching new objectives and adventures. Keep up the great work, guys!

My partner and I started training with IF North Vancouver about 3 months ago and we have had an increadible experience so far. Ben, Sarah and Rich are amazingly knowledgeable, PATIENT and helpful....but have also pushed us well out of our comfort zone, to help us achieve the healthiest, strongest bodies possible. The IF model is fun and results driven, designed to get you out doing the things you loved, or loved or will love and don’t even know it yet. Beautiful brand new facility, great communication and positive vibes. I highly recommend these lovely people and the IF program.

Just in the process of starting with IF North Van at the recommendation of my father in law who has been working with Ben for 5 pdd years. While we are just starting on our journey I am floored with the attitude, support, general care, and excitement to embark on a new journey. If the IF NV team is 1/2 of the initial energy and dedication they start off with they are hands down the best freaking group of trainers round...this comes.from.someone who has always scoffed at Personal Training for no good reason. Looking forward to my transformational journey with Ben, Sarah and the rest of the IF NV Team!

The trainers here have a fantastic approach to fitness. They are welcoming and approachable but not afraid to push you to your limits. I have gotten excellent results in terms of agility, endurance and strength. Ben and the entire team work together to make working out an enjoyable experience and I actually look forward to going to the gym

My father and I have been work out in here for few months. Ben and other coaches help us to build our bodies. Pretty nice to work out.

Love training at this place. They tailor workouts to exactly what you are looking for. Super knowledgeable trainers get you fit and strong in a safe healthy way. As a physician with sports medicine interests I wouldn’t train anywhere else.

Almost a year ago I started working out with personal trainers in Innovative Fitness in North Vancouver while suffering from lower back arthritis. Soon I realized that with the proper supervision and professional guidance I can workout without pain. Thanks to Ben and his incredible team, I can say that now I feel no pain during and after my workouts. My knowledgable trainers went out of their way to find the best training plan for my body and may limitations. Pam and Luiz helped me find strength and improve my balance and showed me all the areas that I had to focus on. I thank all these incredible professionals especially Ben for helping me making changes in my wellness.

I've been working out at IF North Van for the past 1.5 years, and I've seen nothing but excellent results. I initially started off as a client actively rehabilitating an injury, but this progressed to something more than getting me back to my baseline. I believe that if you're serious in wanting to improving your fitness, this is the premier place to go in North Vancouver. Whether you're rehabilitating a car accident injury, or wanting to jump higher, I can't recommend this place enough.
