Letter From the Owner and Founder of Actin Fitness:

Hello,

I am Valerie Nicholls, the founder and creator of Actin Fitness.  I have always been involved in fitness and health. In fact, I was a four-time, provincial figure skating champion and now am a certified fitness trainer, as well as an honours neuroscience and health science graduate.

I wanted to start sharing my knowledge and passion for health and fitness with others, which is why I started teaching group fitness and personal conditioning. At the same time, I enrolled in university to pursue a degree in neuroscience. During this time I started to realize that a fit body is not the only thing that matters for living a long and vibrant life. After all, what good is a fit body without an alert mind? This is what led me to create Actin Fitness, Ottawa’s first and only workout for your brain and your body.

Actin is a protein in the body that plays a major role behind the scenes in every movement we make, as well as in the structure of our cells and the signals they produce. I chose this word to represent my business because on the surface “Act-in” fitness encourages everyone to enjoy stimulating physical and mental activity in their daily lives. However, Actin Fitness, just like the protein actin, also works behind the scenes at the cellular level representing a foundation of knowledge based around preventative medicine for the brain and body.

A fit brain and body are the two essential components in leading a dynamic life today and down the road. If you are only working out one or the other, you are only doing half the job. Actin fitness is fun, affordable, cutting-edge, and designed to ensure you progress and achieve your goals.

Why not come see for yourself?

Sincerely,
Valerie Nicholls
