Toronto Adventure Boot Camp was founded in 2005 by Allison Amery and Athina Theodore. The program began with just 5 participants and has grown to over 200 in each four week session. Over the years our programs have expanded in include:
- Teen Adventure Boot Camp
- High School Day programs
- New Mommy Boot Camp
- Circus Fit Boot Camp
- Junior programs
- Corporate programs
Our core boot camp program is designed to provide an alternative for people who strive to be active but are looking for something besides working out at a typical gym. The program fundamentals are consistent whether we are working with youth, adults or children. The package may change, the approach and format may differ, but the goal to ensure each participant is challenged and reaches their goals, remains constant.
We combine a variety of programming types and continue to make workouts challenging for each individual. All exercises that we do can be altered to make it harder, easier or to adapt to a specific injury. We are continually re-inventing our workouts so they are constantly different and always a challenge. A lot of research goes into our daily programming to ensure we have the right exercises for the right group of people.
Safety is another hallmark of our program. We are extremely passionate about ensuring that everyone does exercises in a safe & effective manner. Instructors are highly skilled at providing individual attention in a group setting to prevent injury.
