About CSAWC: The Collingwood Squash & Wellness Centre (CSAWC) is Collingwood's leading multi-purpose fitness club, with a variety of amenities delivering for members a tremendous fitness experience, including: Personal Training, Singles & Doubles Squash, Group Fitness, yoga, Pilates, indoor cycling, dance, yoga, and children's programs. CSAWC has been under new ownership since October 2017, and has since been enjoying a very exciting growth phase, as evidenced by the arrival of Pro Fitness Program™. We are the only health club in Collingwood to offer PFP.
About Pro Fitness Program: Fitness clubs in the PFP network are truly distinguished from most other conventional clubs in the market. Our system predictably fills Personal Trainers' portfolio of clients very quickly (whereas in most other fitness clubs, Trainers typically have to sell their own services independently, and get very little help acquiring new clients). In our clubs, ~37% of new members that start a membership invest in Personal Training. This is astronomically above the industry standard of only ~4-5% that most other North American fitness clubs convert on ( Industry Trend Report 2013 ). This means Personal Trainers working in our clubs enjoy the lifestyle of training a full portfolio of clients much faster than they would working elsewhere, ultimately enabling them to live out their purpose more effectively as Personal Trainers (having a greater impact on more people's lives).
