"I have been a BCRPA Body Blueprint Fitness Instructor since 1996 at Victoria
Fitness World. Without Tina's encouragement and motivation I couldn't have
made it through the first couple of years as a new Instructor. Tina is more
than a course conductor, she is a mentor to many and will do anything to help
you be the best you can be! I am now the Club Manager and Personal Training
Department Manager at Fitness World."
