    “He makes it personal. He builds a relationship with his clients and leverages that trusted relationship to customize a training that has made me feel very comfortable not only with the workouts but the outcomes that I’m achieving. Dan makes it simple, fun, and effective.”

    – Teri
    Senior Executive

    “Dan is patient and professional.  He mixes my workouts with discussion of my diet, my sleeping habits, and my other exercise routines.  It’s been a really delightful 4 years working with Dan!”

    – Steve
    Managing Partner

    “Within a couple of months, my back pain was actually gone and I was moving so much better. My energy levels were up and this really was translating to all areas of my life. He’ll ask you what your goals are, he’ll assess your current abilities and he’ll design a program that contains what, for me, are all of the elements for success. A program that is doable and fun, unique to your abilities and goals, safe and challenging, and most importantly, a program that’s going to get you to your goals and beyond safely and faster than you ever thought possible.”

    – Julie
    Lawyer

    “If I could say my biggest take-away in working with Dan is really the mindset change that he’s enabled me to have around nutrition. I always used to see getting fit as what I was giving up, not what I was gaining. I think the shift that’s happened in working with Dan is that I really started to understand all the things that I’m gaining from this experience, not just what I’m losing.”

    - Kate
    Business Coach

    “Finding Dan is probably the best thing that could happen to me on my fitness journey. Dan isn’t just a coach and a trainer. He’s also a friend, a teacher and a nutritionist and he’s just been there with me through all of this. I honestly feel like I’ve been able to get a part of my life back that had been missing for almost a decade.”

    - Andrea
    Senior Consultant

    “My experience with Dan so far has been really, really amazing. Exactly what I needed and was looking for! I love his workouts, the details and personalized programming, and all the helpful demonstration videos and instruction. I feel challenged at every workout. What’s been most helpful for me has been Dan’s focus on exercise tempo, my form and his constant reminders for me to rest, recover, and stretch.”

    – Rachel
    Boston Marathon Runner, Evaluation Specialist, Epidemiology and Evaluation Services

    “Since I started working with Dan, I dropped 50 pounds and 4 pants sizes and I’m in better shape than I did at any time since high school. That’s beyond what I ever expected! He really understands the balance between motivating and challenging you and keeps finding ways to keep my workouts interesting and fun.”

    - Carl
    Lawyer

    “Dan is legitimately one of the best trainers in the business. Extremely knowledgeable, creative in his methods but never sells what doesn’t work. Knows exactly how to motivate and program based on your goals. He helped me correct a number of longstanding imbalances and weaknesses leading up to World Weightlifting Championships in 2019, and I had my best performance ever on the day of competition. Would recommend to both high-level athletes and those simply interested in health and fitness.”

    – Amanda Braddock
    Canadian National Weightlifting Champion

    “Dan has been an amazing coach and I’m so glad that I chose to work with him. What was initially going to be a couple of months of assessing, resetting and improving my form after a few years on my own in the gym, turned into a long-term remote coaching program during the pandemic. I couldn’t be happier with Dan’s knowledge, drive, and constant innovation and improvement. ”

    – David F.

    “Dan is the best. He helped me get ready for my wedding and meet my goals. More importantly though he made me comfortable and confident in the gym. He pushed me to do things I never thought possible and that’s how you get results and it feels amazing!”

    – Lauren S.

    “I have done personal training with Dan for years! There is just something different about the way he trains, something special ! He is a great teacher and has lots of knowledge about fitness. Highly recommend him and his work.”

    – Kasia F.

    “Dan North is an exceptional fitness trainer. He tailors his fitness programs to the unique strengths/weaknesses of the client and deploys his instruction with passion/enthusiasm. He also brings a deep appreciation of how proper nutrition plays a role along side resistance training in achieving optimal body recomposition outcomes. If you are serious about making a pivot towards a healthier you, go to Dan.”

    – Sean S.

    “Love love love the 12 week program thus far. It’s taking me a bit longer then 12 weeks to complete due to injuries and a sick toddler every other week (daycare babies) but it’s an easy plan to follow (video demos included), extremely flexible (4X a week) and yet challenging at the same time. It’s taken me out of my comfort zone at the gym with new exercises I’ve never even heard of and over building a strong foundation. I’ve learned the importance of breathing while lifting; as well as TEMPO! Huge thank you to Dan for this program.”

    – Nichole R.

    “Dan is an amazing Trainer. He helped me achieve my goal and more. He is very knowledgeable with his workouts and is a great motivator! Best trainer I ever had!”

    – Danielle C.

    “Dan is very down to earth, easy to work with and understanding. I’ve worked with many trainers over the years and have had a great experience with Dan. He has found interesting ways to keep the workouts form getting boring and the results I’ve seen in a short period of time have been great!”

    – Ashley O.

    “Dan is the real deal. As a powerlifter, he helped me push my main lifts forward with great conditioning and accessories and had me setting back to back PRs in a matter of 5-6 weeks. Trust the process and Dan will have you breaking through plateaus and into new territory in no time.”

    – Dave P.

    “About a year ago I was at a point in my fitness where I knew I wanted to take it to the next level but I had trouble getting there on my own. I am happy to say that with Dan’s coaching and programming, I have been on my way to achieving my fitness goals and have gained nearly 15 pounds of muscle.”

    - Jon B.

    “I am truly grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Dan. He is very passionate about his job and puts in 100% everyday. I have seen major improvements in my body since having started training. Thanks for everything Dan!”

    – Gloria M.

    “Dan’s deep well of knowledge helped take my training to the next level. My technique improved; due to his attention to detail and form. My attitude and approach to my training changed; he kept my programs exciting and dynamic, giving me something fresh every three weeks. I got stronger. My endurance elevated. I felt comfortable and supported. Most importantly, I had fun!”

    – Sophie M.
    Gym Owner, Training Lane

    “I started working with Dan 5 sessions ago. I hadn’t exercised in a long time and was anxious but Dan has been amazing. He is professional, understanding, and patient. His encouragement has given me the confidence that I needed to get started. Atter just 1.5 weeks I am pleased with my progress and feel confident with continued training and encouragement I will continue getting good results and attain my goals.”

    – SUSAN G.

    “Highly recommend Dan of Dan North Fitness located in Georgina. I have been dealing with a back injury from a previous sports-related injury for years that has severely hindered my ability to exercise and stay active. Dan has created a program for me that allows for a hard but safe workout. I genuinely leave the gym with my joints/back feeling better than when I walked in. I feel pain relief across the board in my everyday life which is allowing me to gradually push myself harder and harder. The gym itself is spotless and such a great environment to get a hard and effective workout in. Highly, highly recommend!”

    – ALANA P.

    “Dan is fantastic, super knowledgeable and flexible and great at designing a program focused on results. Can’t recommend him highly enough.”

    – BEN K.

    “I started training with Dan 5 months ago, after almost 3 years without going to the gym. I’ve never had a trainer before, so I wasn’t sure how that’d go for me. Since it was my wife who recommended him, I decided to give it a try. His knowledge, technique, and approach are for sure on another level, and he proves that with every question answered, every program written, every recommendation given. One month in and I could already see some progress, and in a short period of time I’m in the best shape I’ve ever been! I’m very happy and I know that whatever your fitness goal is, Dan can guide you there.”

    – LEO A.

    “Dan is hands down the best personal trainer I’ve ever had. For years I felt lost and unmotivated in the gym and tried trainer after trainer to no avail. I came to realize that any trainer can change your body, but only the best can change your habits and outlook on working out and getting fit. Dan does exactly that. His attention to detail and personality make going to the gym a pleasure and his approach has allowed me to stay motivated even when working out by myself. He’s an incredible trainer and an even better person. If you’ve had trouble sticking to a fitness plan or hated the trainers you’ve experienced in the past, Dan is your man.”

    – Aaron S.

    “Dan is an extremely knowledgeable trainer and fitness coach, not to mention just a generally awesome guy to be around. I really appreciate his tailored and highly personalized approach!”

    – Michael G.

    “I’ve been a strength coach and Kinesiologist for nearly 15 years. Dan is by far one of the most knowledgeable, caring and hardworking coaches that I have met in that time. He is not only committed to constant improvement and education in all aspects of training, but walks the walk in terms of training himself in powerlifting, olympic weightlifting and endurance training. You won’t find many like him.”

    – Alex M.

    “I would highly recommend Dan! Dan has trained all of my daughter, my husband and I, and has shown an ability to meet each of our individual needs and goals. He provides support, as required, between sessions, is an excellent communicator and has strong expertise to draw upon. He focuses on blending being tough with making the gym experience enjoyable and something we can look forward to. And, my results have been early and are exceeding my expectations and goals. Do yourself a favor and set up one in person or remote session. It can start a life-changing habit.”

    – Teri C.

    “Been with Dan 3 years now … Always challenging, engaging, informative and a pleasure to workout with … 58 year old Exec.”

    – Steve M.

    “Dan has been training me both in-person and virtually for 9 months. Great progress and good motivation and structure from Dan. I highly recommend.”

    – Bill C.

    “Dan is amazing – the best personal trainer I have ever worked with.”

    – Perry M.

    “Training with Dan is awesome! I actually look forward to my workouts, enjoy the intensity and love the results. Dan is incredibly knowledgeable, down-to-earth and hilarious. I love that he uses his knowledge and experience to design highly personalized programs unique to my body, my goals, my injury history and my personality. He really takes the time to figure out what will work for me and what will get me motivated, excited and seeing results! 20 years and dozens of trainers later, I’ve finally found the best, and I’ve never been more consistent with my workouts. You won’t regret a session (or 50) with Dan, but you’ll probably become a lifting/Dan addict :)”

    – Julie W.

    “Dan is a walking encyclopaedia of fitness knowledge. His blog is my go to page for finding gems of fitness that helps me get strong, get over some injuries and have the right mindset for workouts. He is so pleasant and fun to be around always willing to share his wisdom. Besides being an amazingly strong athlete he is such a great communicator and breaks down the rationale behind movements, what the exercise does to you and what pattern you should follow. I would recommend going to Dan for any level of fitness needs.”

    – Shujoy S.

    “One of the best trainers in Downtown Toronto. His attention to detail is unmatched. Highly recommend.”

    – Jamie M.

    “Dan has taught me a tremendous amount in the past year. Not only has he noticed the imbalances and corrected them, he notices when I doubt myself and don’t challenge myself enough in training. What I always enjoy is that each session is different, and the exercises are never boring. A great trainer is not one that will just tell you what to do, but teaches you habits to apply outside of your session.”

    – Linda N.

    “Dan is a super friendly, professional trainer. He’s helped me feel stronger than ever! I started working with Dan during the covid pandemic. My partner and I were looking for a home-work out program that would help us work on our goals and utilize the set of equipment we had. Dan checks in regularly and always answers any questions I have. Anyone looking to boost their fitness is in good hands with Dan!”

    – Grace F.

    “By far the best most knowledgeable trainer I’ve ever met, every session was different which made it exciting and fun. Dan’s an excellent motivator and I would recommend him to everyone. I loved how he would explain the WHY you are doing what you are doing. 10/10.”

    – Leah N.

    “I’ve been training with Dan for a few months after taking about a year and a half away from the gym. My confidence was low, my body was feeling slow and bigger than I was comfortable with. Dan worked with me to create a program to get me back into working out. Since working with him, I feel that spark I felt for workout out again. My body feels so much stronger and I’m getting back to feeling my physical and mental best. He has been so patient and kind, all while pushing me to achieve my goals. His enthusiasm for what he does only further serves to compliment his wealth of knowledge and motivation for each and every one of his clients. I truly feel so lucky to have him in my corner!”

    – Danielle O.

    “I have been working with Dan for a couple months and have loved my experience. Dan and I set out some realistic goals and he crafted a program that has both challenged me and encouraged me with results already. I find his positive approach the perfect balance of pushing me but just the right amount. His gym is spotless and he’s organized and has a ton of knowledge. I’m grateful to have found Dan’s gym. It’s a real gem!”
