Alex (City Of Burnaby)

Alex is a personal trainer in the City of Burnaby’s recreation program. His official biography describes a supportive, inclusive and adaptable approach, working with beginners through experienced gym users and with young adults through seniors. An avid runner, Alex teaches running clinics for Burnaby. His individual areas of focus include running performance and endurance, preparation for five- and ten-kilometre races, functional movement and mobility, weight-room technique and helping beginners build confidence. He speaks English and Spanish. Alex describes seeing first-time gym users become more comfortable and proud of their progress as a particularly rewarding part of his work. He emphasizes consistent effort and a program that starts from the person’s current needs and abilities. The City says its featured trainers hold certifications from recognized fitness organizations. Alex’s own biography does not name a particular certifying body or degree, so no specific certification, institution or clinical qualification is assigned to him here. The City offers one-to-one and semi-private training. Published rates effective September 1, 2026 list private packages of three sessions for $193.15, five for $304.95 and ten for $576, before tax. Semi-private packages are listed at $160.05, $213.40 and $400.05 per person respectively, before tax, for partners with similar fitness levels and goals. These are program prices, not a private rate set by Alex. Confirm current pricing and the appropriate package with the office. To begin, complete the City’s adult or youth personal-training information package and contact the Lifestyle Services Coordinator. The program asks people to allow up to two weeks for paperwork, trainer matching, payment and scheduling, with extra time possible if supporting medical information is needed. A request for a named trainer is not guaranteed, and not every trainer works at every facility. Training-session fees include weight-room admission during the appointment. The City lists three months to complete a three- or five-session package and six months for ten sessions. It says the program serves the general public and does not accept clients with active ICBC or WCB claims. Confirm current eligibility and terms directly. Email the shared training office at personaltraining@burnaby.ca or call 604-415-3559 and request Alex. Discuss goals, preferred facility, language needs where relevant and schedule before paying. City Hall’s address is not presented as a training location, and Alex is identified only by the first name published in the official biography.
