Ambassador Fitness & Performance

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere and great training! I started going to ambassador for Saturday strong classes (Chelsea is great!) and transitioned to personal training in November following a shoulder dislocation. I am a regular gym user but really enjoy going to Remi for strength and stability training in addition to my normal routine. Remi creates thoughtful and personalized plans to target exactly what you're after and I would recommend both the personal training and group classes to anyone!

Fantastic experience: Remi and Chelsea are very attentive to your issues and design a personal work out for your needs. The environment is very good and their mood does help to motivate and feel yourself welcomed. Equipments are new and support multiple needs. Trust in the process!

Fantastic experience: What a wonderful experience ! Remi just amazing made my new 1 month experience the best ever ! I am using all the excercises he made for my daily program ! I certainly have felt the good burn and will continue this daily for a better stronger me !!

Fantastic experience: Working with the team at Ambassador Fitness has been an incredible experience. Coaches Remi and Chelsea truly stand out for their ability to listen to your goals and concerns, and for crafting thoughtful solutions to help you achieve them. Their dedication to keeping you motivated and on track is something you don't often find in the fitness industry. They genuinely care about their members and treat you like family, offering guidance and support beyond just a typical trainer-client relationship. If you have been avoiding taking the next steps, don't! Reach out to them and find the motivation to start your healthy new lifestyle, with a caring team.

Fantastic experience: I started going to Ambassador Fitness in July 2024. At 53 years old and not in any kind of good shape gyms were intimidating. The atmosphere at Ambassador has always been warm, welcoming and encouraging. No judgement! I’m happy to say that after these last few months I’m achieving my own goals by gaining strength, more stamina in everyday life, and even dropping sizes. Highly recommend seeing Remi or Chelsea.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to gyms off and on for at least 30 yrs, but have never experienced working out like I do at Ambassador. From the minute you walk in ( where you are greeted personally and enthusiastically each and every time) and throughout your workout, you are taken care of by one of the two amazing coaches. They are patience, knowledgeable, and encouraging. My coach Remi spent the time getting to know me and the restrictions I have. He then developed a program that works around the restrictions while still pushing me during each and every workout. I leave my workouts feeling like I have done something good and beneficial for my body, mind and soul. Love this place and the staff!!!

Fantastic experience: So far my experience with my trainer has been fantastic! From the moment I started working with them, I knew I was in great hands. Their expertise and passion for training are evident in every session. They tailor workouts to fit my individual goals and continually push me to achieve more, all while making sure I stay motivated and enjoy the process. Thank you Coach :)

Fantastic experience: My wife and I have been now going here for a few months, and we are so impressed. Amazing atmosphere. Phenomenal facility. Coach Remi and Coach Chelsea are two of the most supportive and awesome people you could ever work with. We highly recommend Ambassador Fitness & Performance.

Fantastic experience: Ambassador Fitness has a very welcoming feel every time you show up. You’re greeted by name with big smiles from both Coach Chelsea and Coach Remi. They make working out easy by having a personalized plan designed for you, just show up and put in the work. They’re very personable and happy to answer any questions regarding your training or nutrition. My husband and I have been coming for just over a month working with both coaches and have seen results. We look forward to continuing our fitness journey with Ambassador Fitness.

Fantastic experience: I have recently started training with Remi, he is an exceptional trainer. His professionalism and knowledge have allowed me to see significant improvements in my strength and overall fitness. I highly recommend Ambassador Fitness to anyone interested in next level training ! Thank you Remi !

Fantastic experience: I am a 60 year old male who according to my son has to start taking better care of my health. My son knew Remi from HK at the UofW and booked a session with him for me. I go twice a week and have noticed an increase in balance and core strength since I started working with him. I would recommend Remi to anyone who wants a personal , experienced trainer to better health. Thanks for everything Remi

Fantastic experience: Coach Chelsea has been the best personal trainer i have had, in my first few months she helped me lose weight and gain muscle! The environment is great and everyone is super friendly, highly recommended to anyone looking to start the fitness journey or continue it!

Fantastic experience: I was struggling with my herniated discs for 6+ months and felt like I would never get better. I am so happy I went to see Remi. He had a very thorough assessment and was super informative. I left the appointment feeling like there was hope in my back pain journey and had a plan to follow. Within a month, I followed the specific exercises, eliminated my pain triggers and have seen great improvement. I highly recommend Remi if you’re struggling with lower back pain!

Fantastic experience: I enrolled my dad, Tom, in training with Remi, despite his previous disinterest in fitness and his struggles with knee arthritis, chronic lower back soreness, and shoulder pain. Over the last two months, I've observed a remarkable transformation in both his mental and physical well-being. He has grown to enjoy exercise and reports feeling increasingly better. His knees have strengthened and are no longer in pain, he is shedding weight and gaining muscle, which alleviates his back issues, and most significantly, he looks forward to his bi-weekly sessions with Remi. Remi, your professionalism and expertise are unparalleled. Thank you for providing my dad with such attentive care. To anyone in search of a professional trainer who values customer service and fosters a safe, enjoyable training environment, Ambassador Fitness & Performance is the definitive choice.

Fantastic experience: Remi's tailored workouts and knowledgeable, attentive oversight have kept me fit and strong. He genuinely cares about his clients and consistently gives back to his community. Grateful to know such a great trainer and person!

Fantastic experience: I have had a fantastic experience with Remi, he is truly knowledgeable in all areas of fitness. His structured method of training allows me to pace my performance and assist with attaining my goals. Great place to train and friendly staff! Thanks Remi :)

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough amazing things about Remi. My young teen daughter has trained with many trainers over the years with her competitive sports and coming from a competitive gymnast background; she says Remi is the best trainer she has ever had! He created a program customed for her and she absolutely loves training at his facility. When she recently suffered an injury thru one of her travel sports, Remi was very patient and adjusted her workout, as well as monitored her until she could get back to training fully. Everyone, young and old that trains there is extremely friendly and welcoming. I just drop her off and she goes in on her own and loves it! Remi is the best!!

Fantastic experience: Remi created a personal program to meet my needs. I started training with Remi after an auto accident. I’ve had over 200 weekly sessions both in-person and virtual. Treatment was successful, creative and I have continued with Remi gaining strength and overall fitness.

Fantastic experience: Great training experience, great environment as well. Would recommend anyone to give Remy a try.

Fantastic experience: Have just been going a couple of months. Love the environment, group training but still interacting with the trainer (Remi). Custom workouts for your needs. Always positive vibes. I really like that its a small gym with free weights. Don't care for the big muscle gyms.

Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough good things about this gym. Chelsea and Remi have created an incredibly welcoming and comfortable environment for everyone who comes in. Coach Chelsea is incredibly dedicated to her clients and creates a perfect personalized training plan unique to each person. Absolutely wonderful gym!

Fantastic experience: Remi is an excellent fitness instructor. I highly recommend him when asked if I know a personal trainer. His training is specific to each individual and not pre packaged

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Chelsea for a year, and started doing regular weekly appointments with her when i became pregnant. Chelsea has been able to tailor routines designed specifically for my pregnancy that are safe and effective! She is kind and energetic and makes the class so fun and exciting to come to even when I am not feeling up to it. She is very encouraging and knowledgable in her profession. I was told I need to prevent my preclampsia from worsening by staying active for a certain amount a week and Chelsea helps me do just that and pushes me to where i need to be. We start with stretches and then workouts that work with my body type, and reassessed once I became pregnant to work around that so I can feel great and work up the energy i need! I am a nurse aswell and find this helps me work better at work and not feel so tired at the end of the day. I would also like to add the gym is the cleanest I have been too aswell! She is super flexible with my schedule and needs. Remi and Chelsea are the best and I would reccomend them to anyone!

Fantastic experience: I can not say enough good things about my experience at Ambassador Fitness, especially about my amazing personal trainer, Coach Chelsea! Chelsea always knows how to keep me motivated and accountable. Her passion for fitness shines through in every session and it's hard not to be inspired by her dedication. Under Chelsea's guidance, I have seen significant improvements in my strength and overall fitness level. She tailors each workout to my specific goals and always challenges me to push my limits, while ensuring that I am comfortable and safe. She truly cares about my progress and well-being. One of the things that I love most about Chelsea's training is that the workouts are never boring. She keeps things fresh and exciting by incorporating a variety of exercises and techniques that make each session both effective and enjoyable. Ambassador Fitness as a whole is a fantastic facility, well-quipped and maintained, Remi, the other personal trainer is also very warm and inviting. You can tell that this has been a true labour of love for Remi and Chelsea, they have put their hearts and souls into creating a wonderful place for their clients to reach their fitness goals. If you're looking for a personal trainer who is not only knowledgeable and effective but also very energetic and fun Chelsea Graffan at Ambassador Fitness is the way to go. I can't wait to continue on this journey with her by my side! So if you're looking for a top-notch fitness experience with amazing trainers, you've found it at Ambassador Fitness.

Fantastic experience: Glute camp is the perfect class that’s both challenging and rewarding, coach Chelsea pushes me to my limits and I cannot thank her enough for how far I’ve come in just a few months. All around a good gym that has everything I need and the best coach Chelsea to guide me!

Fantastic experience: I worked out with Remi many yrs ago..lost touch but recently came in contact again..Let me tell you how happy I was to sign up for workouts again with him..Best decision ever!! His dedication and commitment to his clients is top notch..workouts far exceed my expectations... Thank you for all you do..I highly recommend him for your personal training needs...

Fantastic experience: I love the personalized program that not only covers the exercises from an awesome coach Remi but also gives you nutrition guide and 3D body scan and key measurements. Very family like atmosphere and both coaches provide 1 on 1 coaching!! Definitely recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Amazing coach. I am training through online program from India. I am training for my lower back and shoulder issues and so far I feel a lot improved. Looking forward to a great journey :)

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Remi for several years and can say that he is easily one of the best trainers in the city. He's welcoming, friendly, considerate, helpful, passionate, funny, and dedicated to working with you. From the minute you walk into Ambassador Fitness and Performance, he makes you feel part of the team. The equipment in the gym is brand new and clean. Since I met Remi, I have also been impressed with his vast fitness knowledge - no doubt derived from his graduate-level education (Master's of Human Kinetics) and years of experience in the field. For each session, Remi meticulously chronicles your performance so you can see your progress. What I particularly appreciate about Remi is his ability to tailor your workout for you. If you are interested in core work, he can help with that. If you are looking to strengthen your upper body, he knows that too. He has a myriad of clients all of whom have different interests, strengths, and goals. He works with them on their individual fitness plans and helps them to actualize it. There are also free classes each week for those interested. I attended a session with Coach Chelsea and enjoyed it. There are also monthly fitness challenges, which help to keep everyone on their toes. I always look forward to going to train with Remi. A++

Fantastic experience: I am very grateful to have found Remi and connect with him. I needed a solid core strengthening program to implement in my life. Remi was able to create a weekly workout plan for me and help me enhance my daily exercises. With his direction and guidance for several months, I learned to appreciate my core more than ever by following his quality core strengthening plan. I highly recommend Remi!

Fantastic experience: Started here after seeing both my mom and sister go here for years, and I'm so glad I did! Both Remi and Chelsea are amazing coaches that make the gym a very welcoming and comfortable environment. Looking forward to continuing my fitness journey!!

Fantastic experience: I've been working with Remi for a few years now. At my age strength and balance are really important. His workouts have kept me on the golf course and I'm playing better golf now than I was 5 years ago. I had a health crisis back in May and finally got back to Remi 5 weeks ago. I can feel the improvement in my strength already. He really is a great coach. Chelsea is an excellent addition to Ambassador. Love her enthusiastic greetings. The new gym is just excellent. You two did a great job setting it up.

Fantastic experience: Gym is very professional, state of the art equipment, and excellent trainers

Fantastic experience: Beautiful facility with top-notch equipment. As a long-time colleague of Remi's, I understand first-hand how passionate and knowledgeable Remi is about health and fitness, so I would highly recommend anybody to check out this gym.

Fantastic experience: Ambassador Fitness and Performance is not just a gym; it's a testament to the vision and dedication of it's owner. My son has poured his heart and soul into this establishment, and it clearly shows. From the top-notch equipment to the experienced trainers (Chelsea Gaffan), everything speaks of quality and commitment. His genuine passion for health, fitness and the well-being of his members is evident in every aspect of the gym. Proud to see his hard work in action and highly recommend for a transformative fitness experience!

Fantastic experience: Long time colleague of Remi, he’s an outstanding professional that I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to improve their fitness and stay healthy!!

Fantastic experience: So very impressed with Ambassador fitness. The facility is clean , organized and such a variety of workout equipment. I especially am impressed with coach Chelsea . Its been a while since I’ve worked on my fitness goals, so I’m kind of rusty and uncoordinated , but coach Chelsea is so patient ! She is invested in helping me meet my goals as much as I am . She’s a great motivator and quite simply the best personal trainer I’ve ever had .

Fantastic experience: I joined Coach Chelsea's Glute Camp and it was fantastic! Her expertise and energy made every session a blast. From creative exercises to a supportive atmosphere, I saw impressive results in my glute strength and confidence. Highly recommend for an effective and enjoyable workout experience!

Fantastic experience: Remi is an expert instructor, kind, motivating and good to work with. He was able to accurately analyze my needs and build a personalized program for me. Great facility.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Coach Remi for just over a year and recently hit a goal of 100 workouts! Remi has created a workout plan specially for me to help me stay motivated and achieve my fitness goals. I am sleeping better and I just feel better. If you're looking for a good workout that comes with accountability but flexibility for life then you'll want to check out Ambassador Fitness. I highly recommend it!

Fantastic experience: Never a dull moment at Ambassador fitness. The facility is equipped with unique pieces like the killer hip thrust machine and various tidal tanks- two things I had never used before training at the gym. Coach Chelsea also helped me greatly when training for the CBSA PARE test by setting up a mock version of the test right in the gym! Great space, great trainers.

Fantastic experience: I’m very happy to share my success story of working with Remi Sovran. I came to Remi with a challenge to get my back better before a seven-day bike trip in only two months. I had experienced low back and sciatica pain on and off at varying levels of intensity for several years and needed a game plan. After Remi evaluated the MR’s of my back and my doctor’s evaluation he came up with an exercise plan that incrementally increased my lower back and core muscle strength which helped me achieve little or no back pain! My bike trip was a great success! I was able to cycle 40 to 50 kilometers every day during my trip. I am so glad that I found Remi’s videos on YouTube. I was impressed with his McGill certification and his vast knowledge about how to treat back pain. He patiently answered my questions even when they were the same repeated questions. If you’re looking for a long term solution to your back pain problem I would highly recommend Remi Sovran.

Fantastic experience: From the moment I went to check them out and try out a workout, I knew this was the place to begin a new fitness journey! I’ve been battling with weight gain and a lack of motivation for too long. Coach Chels’ and Remi’s positive energy and motivation are contagious! Now almost a year in, I look forward to the a$$ kicking I get each week with Coach Chels and I am totally enjoying a healthier me! Something to note is that l’ve suffered from back pain for years and threw out my back December 2022. This hasn’t stopped me from exceeding many personal fitness goals! Coach Chels provides modifications as necessary and I trust her knowledge and experience! Whatever your goals are - I’d recommend at least checking them out! The space and their dedication, energy, knowledge and experience are where it’s at! I’m sure you’ll fall in love too! #letsrunit

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Remi for a few years and really enjoy his workouts. I love that I am able to complete the workouts in my own home and that he is accommodating to my busy university schedule. Even though I complete my workouts at home, I always feel like I am getting an effective workout - it's a great combination of strength and cardio. If you are looking for a trainer, I highly recommend Remi!

Fantastic experience: Great pricing for having a personal trainer, $15 per session! Remi is a great guy and I’ve been seeing him for a while now the workouts constantly leave me sore but it’s worth it!

Fantastic experience: Remi is an amazing friendly trainer. I have been working out with him 4 years until now. Remi is extremely caring knowledgeable know exactly what his clients needs, I highly recommend him.

Fantastic experience: After struggling with back issues for years, I was recommended to Remi by my chiropractor to help me finally come up with a safe and rewarding work out program. I have made such gains in core strength and conditioning that I have continued for 4 years with no plans to stop! I highly recommend Remi and Chelsea at Ambassador Fitness! #bigday

Fantastic experience: Great place to work out! Awesome trainers with a fun, clean space! 100% recommend!!

Fantastic experience: I started going to Remi almost two years ago after my mom had recommended him. I was feeling really run down after having COVID and wanted to get back some of the strength I felt like I had lost. I can honestly say that I feel stronger than I have in a really long time. The atmosphere at the gym is so welcoming and the structure of the workouts is extremely efficient and allows you to see your own progress week to week. I would recommend Remi and Chelsea to anyone interested in personal training! 10/10!!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to see Remi for a few weeks now and he’s been amazing! He gives me a new workout every week that leaves my body sore and he is great at encouraging me!

Fantastic experience: I have been a client of Remi's since approximately 2018; such an amazing professional. He custom designs your work-out and meets you where you are fitness-wise and builds from there based upon sound research (these attributes make him the professional he is: Masters Degree in HK). You notice measurable results and the progress is evident. Thanks for keeping us striving for optimal health (both my husband & I are clients, and son is starting his journey to fitness with Remi), strength & wellness. What you teach is priceless because I value my health especially more as I approach my mid-fifties. I would not have the health I have if it weren't for you, Remi. I hope others get to experience what we have experienced. As well as Remi, Chelsea is a trainer and I have been able to have her work with me in Remi's absence. Chelsea is phenomenal and very detailed- oriented in guiding you through the proper body mechanics in doing your daily work-out. She cheers you on. Both Remi & Chelsea are very personable.

Fantastic experience: Remi and Chelsea are amazing. The moment you walk in, the greeting is enthusiastic and welcoming. Customized workouts are updated frequently and never mundane. The atmosphere is fun and inclusive. True professionals yielding great results!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this place and Remi is awesome! Workouts are paying off big time and very motivational. Highly recommend! 10 STARS

Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Remi at Ambassador Fitness & Performance for over a year now and I have never felt better. I originally saw Remi for a back pain consultation a year ago and had incredible results. For over a year prior I had seen different physio's and was getting no relief for my bulging disks. Remi set me up with the right exercises for me and my body to help strengthen my back without causing more pain. Since then, I have stuck with Remi because I was seeing improvement in my pain but also a huge improvement in my strength. I can lift more now than I have ever been able to. I highly recommend checking out Ambassador Fitness & Performance.

Fantastic experience: When I began looking into setting new health and fitness goals due to injuries, I started to train with Remi. He took the time needed to understand what I was looking for and implemented a fitness program specific to me. Over the years I have seen improvements in my strength, health and mobility and feel great. I highly recommend Ambassador Fitness and performance to anyone who wants to improve their fitness level through a knowledgeable trainer.

Fantastic experience: ONLY PLACE WHERE I CAN SAY MY BODY BURNS AFTER AND IM STILL THRILLED! AWESOME PLACE HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Ambassador Fitness and training with Remi for almost 4-years. Remi is an extremely diligent, caring, and knowledgeable trainer who makes sure his clients have the best workout guides and support to meet their goals and ensure they won't injure themselves along the way. As part of the guide, the workouts change on a 6-8 week basis. This not only makes it more enjoyable as you get to learn new things, but thorough learning new exercises, you're able to find what works best for you. Aside from the amazing atmosphere and experience working out at the gym offers, Remi's qualifications and price point make the gym hard to beat. Commercial gyms charge 2-3x the price for what you get at Ambassador Fitness, often times with much less qualified trainers. I would recommend (and have) Ambassador Fitness, specifically Remi Sovran, to anyone looking to get a private personal trainer!
