With spring program registration opening on Thursday, March 18th, it's time to check out what is new for spring!

This year, the Wellness Institute is bringing fitness to the community with five new bootcamp formats in locations across the city for a total of 22 boot camp options for every body and their schedule!

The Wellness Institute will be on air Wednesday, March 10th for Hot 103's Chuck Norris Birthday Bash. Listeners will be able to call in each hour for a chance to win a prize pack in honour of Chuck's 70th birthday. The prize pack includes an exclusive admission to a one-day session of our Hardcore Addiction Mixed Martial Arts boot camp.

Two upcoming events give you good reason to get active with us this spring.

Join us as we host the annual CP Bike Race on Saturday, March 13 on the gym floor of the Wellness Institute. Teams ride stationary bikes to raise funds for Cerebral Palsy.

The Fall Fitter.Firmer.Faster Weight Loss Challenge at the Wellness Institute turned pounds lost into turkey for charity.

The official winners of the weigh in on Saturday, December 12th lost 131.8lbs (or 6.6% of their total weight). In celebration of their success, the Wellness Institute donated the equivalent weight in turkeys to the Christmas Cheer Board.

The winter issue of Positively Healthy magazine is now available online with a dozen free health education options for anyone to attend plus over 30 new programs for body and mind. In total you will find well over 100 things to do in Winnipeg this winter.

If you haven't been to the Wellness Institute recently, you may have missed our recent equipment upgrades and renovations.

Highlights include new resistance and cardio equipment, as well as a more spa-like feel to the changeroom areas. The changes are part of our ongoing commitment to keeping the facility current.

Join together for wellness this holiday season and save money while you reach your fitness or weight loss goals.

When you enroll with a friend between November 1 and December 31, you pay only one enrollment fee. Drop in for a free tour and see what makes us a not just a gym, but a premium facility for your total wellness.
