ABOUT

Jada Avon Owner/Certified Personal Fitness Trainer

Back Yard Boot Camp was inspired by my own 45 lbs weight loss through a healthy diet, exercise and sheer determination! It has influenced me to help others start their journey to a healthier lifestyle. I wanted others to be comfortable in an environment where they can recognize the fun, benefits, and camaraderie offered by an outdoor group fitness class regardless of their experience or fitness level.

In 2009, I completed my Personal Training Certification with CanFit Pro and launched my first All Season Fitness Program and geared it towards beginner levels in St. Albert, Alberta. As we grew, our groups were tailored to work with all fitness levels. Word quickly spread in surrounding communities and Back Yard Boot Camp launched two more outdoor fitness classes in Spruce Grove and Stony Plain, Alberta.

I have recently relocated with my family to beautiful Vancouver Island, British Columbia and proud to call this breathtaking place home! I am very excited to announce the launch of my new Boot Camp starting in the Spring of 2017 in Nanaimo. And now Boot Camps in Crofton and Cedar!

A - Outside! We always meet at the same location to keep consistency with our scheduled workout routine. Click HERE for Boot Camp locations. (Note: some locations may have an indoor location for the winter months...TBA)

Q - What if there is lightening, hail and/or if it downpours or the temperature is extremely hot?

A - We do this Rain or Shine! HOWEVER, should the weather be too severe, I will cancel via Facebook, email or text and the class will be rescheduled.
