about us

In June of 2002 Fitstop Fitness for Women opened it's doors for the very first time.

We were then a partial 1 floor, 2 room, 3 treadmill, small gym with a big heart for our members and community.

Now, 9 years later, we have expanded to include most of the lower floor of our building as well as the entire upstairs. We have onsite BCRPA certified personal trainers, a whole room dedicated to cardio equipment, another double room full of weight machines and free weights, a shower/changing room, and a multi purpose stretch / ball room. And all that is just upstairs!

Downstairs we have a dance / class floor, an abundance of spinning bikes, a nutrition clinic, an onsite registered counsellor, an infrared sauna room, two more showers, a well toyed kids room and a welcoming reception area where you can sit and relax and enjoy a protein shake after a hard workout.

In it's almost 10 year life span than three and a half thousand members have been welcomed through our doors.

And we continue to welcome people on a daily basis!

Recognized in the Cowichan Valley as a safe harbour, providing not just a motivating place for women to work out, but a warm, safe and welcoming environment to hang out and meet some new friends.

Fitstop continues to do the job it was created for...nurturing body, soul and spirit.

We encourage a our members in their goals for a healthy lifestyle combined with exercise and healthy eating.

But we also nurture a positive and safe environment, where all are welcome.
