What to bring

INSTRUCTOR

Lori Watson (Owner)

I am a BCRPA certified group fitness instructor and have been running bootcamp style classes in Victoria since 2008.

Outdoor Fitness started out as a few friends, co-workers meeting up and working out on our lunch hour. Progressing to after work hours, the initial friends and co-workers told two people, they told two people and so on. Consequently I now run 5 classes a week. I have also been involved with dryland training for high level athletes in hockey and synchronized swimming as well as running fitness camps for community centers and kids clubs.

I grew up very active in dance, gymnastics and track & field. After moving to Victoria BC in 1992, I began coaching all levels of gymnastics at Victoria Gymnastics and personally stayed active with rowing, slo-pitch and outdoor volleyball.

I have taken many courses and workshops throughout the years that include Nutrition, Goal Setting and Diets and Fat Burning along with various styles of training the trainer in kettlebells, battleropes, bodyweight and training outdoors.

I am passionate about fitness but mostly passionate about building your confidence to believe in yourself that you can do it.

“Never underestimate what you can accomplish when you believe in yourself” Arthur Boorman

Fitness isn’t all about how fast you can run or how many burpees you can do.  Fitness is an entire experience, body & mind.  Your mind tells your body what to do.  I am in this industry to get your mind to tell your body that fitness is fun and that you can do it.    My goal is to motivate and challenge you to do something you didn’t think was possible.

When I am not at the park, you can usually find me on top of a mountain. I love hiking up mountains, any mountain whether it’s a 20 minute hike or a 2 hour climb.  It’s the view at the top that makes it all worth it.

My favourite exercise are Mountain Climbers, I think it’s because you can set a rhythm and your body takes over.  Also, Mountain Climbers are usually performed for :30 or less.  I love getting others to try new exercises and hearing them say….. ‘oh I can’t do that’.. then they do it.  That’s my favourite part.

Building a positive and successful fitness company that I am proud of and the hours I teach are still my number one favourite hour of the whole day.

People who accomplish goals from beginning to end and beyond.
