ALTA Fitness

JC and Linda are fantastic to train with! When I began to train with Alta I was surrounded with support from day one and the feeling of community in the gym was exceptional. The one on one and small group sessions are well structured and it's always fun even when it's a tough session!The gym is like a big family. They regularly join in at events like Parkrun in the local area and all of the other members cheer one another on as well.Alta has helped me to achieve my goals and I would recommend to everyone across all levels of exercise.

Alta fitness is a great place to train. The staff are very knowledgeable and adapt their programs to suit your needs and any previous injuries. Johnny has been a fantastic and I can highly recommend him

ALTA Fitness is a fantastic personal training studio in Canterbury, with a natural, light-filled studio and some of the nicest trainers you will meet! Linda and JC are the heart of ALTA, and are well supported by a team of trainers who reflect their passion and care for their clients. They run 1:1 sessions as well as a range of small group sessions suiting every level of fitness. I highly recommend ALTA if you are looking to make a positive impact on your health and well-being.

I'm so happy to be a willing participant at this amazing boutique gym. Lindsay and JC made me feel so welcome and both are considerate and focused to help me achieve my goals. Thanks for a great start and I'm so looking forward to being a member at Alta Fitness

JC has a reputation as a cross-country ski coach, and he can ski pretty well to boot. JC is also a master at producing both ski -specific training programs that work, devising all manner of ways of conditioning any muscle that might exist, and quietly encouraging attainment of even greater goals. His depth of knowledge, across a range of endurance and other sports is a wonderful asset to be able to use. The resulting improvements in my own performance have been beyond expectations. The Alta Fitness facility is a very nice place to train at, to be able the use the really neat equipment, to be working in the same space as others who are equally committed to their own goals, whatever the level and intent, guided by a knowledgeable, supportive and friendly training team.

JC at ALTA Fitness has a wealth of knowledge and experience, is always abreast of change and innovation, and best of all, if you have an injury you can be confident he will have a strategy and program that will help. At ALTA he has created a great place to work out. I love JC's sense of humour, passion for fitness and life, and ability to work with all ages including elite XC ski athletes with whom I work.

ALTA fitness is a small gym but has everything you will need. The staff and equipment are all terrific, with plenty of fun group classes. Also, with the green grass carpet, even when you're doing a tough workout it's still a nice relaxed atmosphere- something you won't get in a big commercial gym.

A keen client of Alta Fitness for several years, I have the Alta team to thank for my improved level of fitness. Unlike other gymnasiums, Alta offers a very personalised approach within a calm and happy environment. I look forward to my weekly group, and one-on-one, classes and have formed many friendships with fellow group participants. Following a serious accident in the US last year (which included multiple arm and leg fractures), I credit JC and Linda with my extremely successful rehabilitation. There is absolutely no way I would be functioning so well physically if it wasn't for JC and Linda. I will be forever grateful.

Linda and JC at ALTA have been fantastic, customising each workout for me while in group sessions. They take great interest and care with my total well-being! Totally recommended for any age and any fitness level (and mine wasn't great when I started!)
