BRENT LOHMER (BA-Kin, CSEP-CPT)

Brent grew up in Stonewall, Manitoba. As a youngster, he was heavily involved with hockey, baseball, skateboarding and track and field. His love for sport transitioned smoothly to a love for health and fitness. From a young age he was fascinated with the human body, human movement, the muscular system and how training the body could improve both health and performance.

His love for health and fitness continued to grow through his adolescent years and into his adult life. At this point, he decided to study kinesiology in order to increase his understanding of human movement, health, fitness and performance. Brent graduated with a Bachelor of Science specializing in Exercise Science in 2010. Also, he has been certified as a personal trainer through the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology since 2009 and is a member of the National Strength and Conditioning Association. Today, his love for health and fitness has led him to a life of guiding individuals towards their health, fitness and performance goals through personal training, deep water fitness classes, bootcamps and Zumba. He also coaches the Special Olympics Manitoba Power-lifting team. Today, Brent’s hobbies include reading, running, dancing, skateboarding and obviously, working it out!
