In the vibrant and diverse city of Toronto, finding a personal trainer who aligns with your values and understands your unique needs can be a challenge. Enter Church of Sweat, a queer-forward, body-positive fitness sanctuary that redefines what personal training can be. Led by Craig (they/them), a certified personal trainer with extensive training in yoga, meditation, and Classical MAT Pilates, Church of Sweat offers a safe, inclusive, and effective fitness experience for all bodies.
🏳️🌈 A Safe Space for All Identities
Traditional gyms often present barriers for queer, trans, and non-binary individuals. Church of Sweat aims to dismantle these barriers by creating a space where everyone, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, race, age, or ability, feels welcome and supported. Craig's trauma-informed approach ensures that each session is affirming and empowering, allowing clients to focus on their fitness goals without fear of judgment.
💪 Personalized Training for Every Body
Whether you're looking to build strength, improve mobility, or enhance overall wellness, Church of Sweat tailors each session to meet your individual needs. Craig combines evidence-based practices with a compassionate approach, ensuring that every workout is both effective and enjoyable. Clients appreciate the balance of challenge and support, with many noting Craig's ability to create a nourishing learning environment that engages both body and mind.
🌟 What Clients Are Saying
"Craig is an extremely perceptive and encouraging teacher who creates a nourishing learning environment for all levels. The joy and love that they bring to teaching makes their classes not only engaging for the body and mind, but affirming for the soul."— Hannah, Writer/Art-Maker
"As a queer nonbinary person, personal training felt like a scary place to look for support getting comfortable in the gym. After chatting with Craig briefly over the phone and now working with them for many months, they have totally reshaped my perception of fitness and the gym. I am now comfortable using so much equipment in the gym and can feel the progress in my body and mind thanks to them!"— Natasha, Therapist
📍 Serving Downtown Toronto and Beyond
Located in the heart of downtown Toronto, Church of Sweat offers both in-person and online personal training sessions, making it accessible to clients near and far. Whether you're a local resident or connecting from another city, Craig is committed to helping you achieve your fitness goals in a way that suits your lifestyle.
