History

The Health & Fitness Society of BC is the provincial voice for physical activity, exercise science, fitness, and exercise medicine. Since 1981, we have set the standard for the health and fitness industry in BC. Our non-profit (volunteer driven) organization is dedicated to promoting the health benefits of physical activity and other healthy lifestyle behaviours. All of our personnel are qualified exercise professionals with specialized training in the exercise sciences. We serve as a community network for trainees, qualified exercise professionals, and other healthcare providers in the creation, evaluation, and dissemination of evidence-based, best practice, healthy lifestyle behaviour information.
