Andy August Fitness Director
Philosophy
I have been involved in the fitness industry for over 15 years and have worked at Delta Valley Health Club for 13 years. Health and fitness are not only a personal passion of mine, but a lifestyle that everyone is capable and deserving of. I believe that working through physical challenges in the gym strengthens not only our muscles, but also our resolve to conquer everyday stresses and challenges, ultimately leading to a better quality of life. It is my hope to inspire and support my clients in their journey to achieve their individual health and fitness goals and simply feel better about themselves physically and mentally. My approach to achieving and maintaining health and fitness is to be positive, happy and grateful. Positive to encourage, happy to inspire and grateful for the opportunity to help others change their lives.

Jenn Johnson Personal Trainer
Philosophy
Jenn J. is a Mx4 group fitness instructor, former NPC figure competitor, and has contended in numerous mud runs, obstacles races, and even a half marathon. In addition to Mx4, her favorite workout is kickboxing, and technical boxing training. However, before she began her fitness journey she couldn’t run a mile, do a “real” push up or pull up, and wouldn’t dare to wear a bikini. What changed? She did! She decided to take that first small step into becoming a better, healthier, and more fit version of herself. Today, Jennifer’s desire is to work with people yearning to holistically change their lives for the better – body, mind, and spirit. Let her help you to take your first steps on your fitness journey today!

I strongly believe that physical and mental health are closely related and should be a priority in our lives. I encourage people to make healthy living a lifestyle and not look for a quick fix. If we enjoy what we are doing then we will find time for it and be motivated to excel to new levels we didn’t think were possible. So let’s put on some good music, set some goals, and crush them.

Pam Fischer GroupX Instructor
Philosophy
For the greater part of my life, I have worked with the public and shared my passion of teaching. It is my greatest joy to share my passions with others as they dig deep into who they are and branch out into something new. Yoga has inspired me to dig deeper into the person I am supposed to be and how I am to be used to help people find their true inner self. I am excited to give people the space to safely grow in their physical bodies and their mental bodies. This is a journey that is just taking off for me and I’m thrilled to be a part of it and share it. Even though I have just joined the Delta Valley family, I have a long history of teaching. When I am not at the gym I am in my classroom teaching children, playing golf, water skiing, or simply having fun with my family.

Sydney Addington Cycling Instructor
Philosophy
My goal for my class is to motivate and bring a fun up beat environment for my clients. To me working out shouldn’t be a dreadful thing to do, it should be something you look forward to doing. Working out isn’t just about the physical benefits but about mentally feeling good. In my class, I will push you and motivate you to show up as your best self. Leave whatever is holding you back outside of my class and working towards bettering yourself. Outside of being an instructor, I am a preschool teacher. Trust me, I know the struggle of feeling like your work life and personal life can bring you down, but working out should be that one time of the day where you can let go of life problem and have a moment to do something you truly enjoy and let go of life’s problems and struggles. I hope to motivate you and make you feel like a better version of yourself after you leave my class.
