About Full Body Fitness

In the heart of Fredericton, Full Body Fitness was born from Derek Wilson's passion for holistic health and community well-being. With a decade of experience in fitness coaching and a personal journey that transformed his own life, Derek envisioned a gym that went beyond equipment and routines. He wanted a space where individuals could discover the joy of movement, the strength of community, and the power of personal growth. Full Body Fitness stands as a testament to his dedication, offering a welcoming environment for all to pursue their fitness goals, guided by expertise and driven by camaraderie.

We're thrilled to continue her training with Derek as she prepares for the U15AAA season in the fall of 2024."
