A welcoming, community-focused third place to empower your quality of life.
We appreciate that exercise is not everyone’s passion and that it can be a struggle to start or maintain a healthy fitness habit.
We created Recess Fit Club to make exercise accessible to people who want to feel strong in their bodies, and exercise thoughtfully and sustainably.
Our values drive everything we do:
Get ready to meet your neighbours.

A welcoming, community-focused third place to empower your quality of life.
Adrian Nicola’s fitness journey began later in life. At 40, he decided to leave the office behind to become a full time personal trainer with a focus on pain-free exercise.
Formerly the head of the personal training team at the West End YMCA, Adrian brings not just professional expertise but a genuine understanding of individual fitness journeys. Navigating challenges like bone spurs, a hip impingement, and arthritis affecting his own journey, he understands the necessity for a personalized approach to exercise (including participating in a group class setting).
Adrian has supported his clients in building a resilient and sustainable relationship with fitness that starts with listening to your body and is underlined with practicing self-compassion through the ups and downs of your fitness routine.
