FROM A GARAGE TO CONNECT FITNESS STUDIO

Personal Trainers that go above and beyond

The first session in High Park happened in a garage, not a gym. One of our earliest Liberty Village clients moved out this way, and we weren’t about to let a change of address end something that was working. So we packed up and met him where he was, literally, training out of his garage with whatever we could fit in there. It wasn’t glamorous, but it worked, and it told us everything we needed to know about how to build a presence in this part of the city: start with the person, not the facility. Eventually we found Connect Fitness Studio in the Junction, and that’s been our home base here ever since.

PERSONAL TRAINING IN HIGH PARK & THE JUNCTION

Covering High Park, The Junction, Roncesvalles, and Parkdale — from Dufferin to Keele, Dundas St to Lake Shore. We’re building our presence in this part of the city, currently welcoming busy professionals and adults settling into a quieter stage of life at home, looking for the flexibility to train at home or in a dedicated personal training studio.

Train at Home or in Your Condo Gym

This side of the city leans more toward houses and townhomes than condo towers, so most of our High Park and Junction mobile personal training clients train with us at home. We bring everything needed for a complete session — no equipment to source, no commute to plan around, no building gym to navigate.

Train With Us at Connect Fitness Studio

For clients who prefer a dedicated studio setting, we also train out of Connect Fitness Studio at 2766A Dundas St W in The Junction. Getting there is straightforward: Dundas St W or Bloor St W by car, with free one-hour street parking, paid options nearby, and limited laneway parking behind the studio. By transit, the 505 Dundas streetcar and 40 Junction bus both run this corridor, with Dundas West Station a short trip away on the Bloor-Danforth line.

PEOPLE ARE ASKING

Your site mentions millennials and busy professionals a lot. Do you work with older adults and seniors too?

Absolutely, and it’s a big part of who we train in High Park and The Junction specifically. A lot of our older clients come to us dealing with pain, old injuries, or joints that don’t move the way they used to, and that’s exactly the kind of training we focus on. We build every program around where your body actually is, not an idealized version of it.

You're newer to this neighborhood. Does that mean less experienced personal trainers, or just less history here?

Just less history here. The coaches training in High Park and The Junction are the same ones with years of experience across our other neighborhoods, we’re simply newer to this specific part of the city, not new to personal training itself.

My kid plays hockey. Can you help them train for their sport?

If they’re 13 or older, and with your signed parental consent. We can build a strength and conditioning program that supports their hockey performance. We’re not a dedicated youth sports performance program, but foundational strength, mobility, and injury prevention work is very much in our wheelhouse.

Is there any equipment I should get before starting with an in-home personal trainer?

Nothing is required, your coach brings what’s needed for a full session either way. That said, if you’re interested in building out your own space over time, a set of adjustable dumbbells and a bench are what we’d recommend first, they cover a lot of ground without taking up much room. It’s entirely optional, just something we can guide you on if you want it.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. PJ is the best - he is knowledgeable and encouraging.  I worked with him for a few weeks at home, gained some confidence, and then started to train with him at Connect Fitness.  Training at home was convenient, but I'm glad I've started to use the gym - it is more fun, challenging and motivating.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My wife and I trained with PJ for 6 months, and it was a fantastic experience. Personally, I used to struggle with staying active, but working with him helped me break out of that sedentary rut. I’ve made real progress and feel so much better, both physically and mentally. Highly recommend!!!
