Helping you Take charge of your health.

I have had so many moments over my coaching career that I cherish. Many of them involve people right here in our gym! The first time I truly felt proud as a coach was with my first client. She was extremely unhealthy when we first met. Her main goal was to be able to get up off the floor without help. After working with her for over a year, she had not only accomplished that but was hiking the Coquitlam Crunch and had lost over 50lbs! We celebrated by carrying 50lbs of weight up the Crunch so she could reflect on how far she’d come. For this woman, my help had completely changed her life. That is why I do what I do. Connecting with people and creating positive change is in all of us and thus being an advocate for health and self-care is what I have to offer in this lifetime.

What Our Members Are Saying

Excellent location downtown Vancouver! The coaches have been very engaging since day one; it did not take me very long to decide I wanted to join the new branch! I liked the fact that they teach you first individually before joining the group clases, so you are self-aware of your limitations and can progress at your own pace minimizing risk of injury. The group energy at the evening classes is so positive and encourages you to keep practicing. Thank you to the team!

I have been a member of Function Health Club since the beginning of 2017 and I absolutely love everything about this gym. The instructors, the classes and the facility, it has everything you could possibly need. I frequently attend the HIIT and kettle bell classes and the instructors are always so friendly and engage with you to ensure you are performing the movements perfectly. Recently, they have adapted their group classes by providing virtual workout sessions and it has been really great. It is nice having some accountability as I am more motivated to workout in a group setting. I am very grateful that I can have a really intense workout in my apartment courtesy of Function Health Club. Thanks for keeping me active.
