We work very closely as a team here at True North Fitness, so you’ll probably meet and work with each of our team at some point while you’re working out at the studio. 

The program you are given to train will change every 4-6 weeks - regardless of who the fitness coach is, your schedule is the most important factor to us in determining who we assign to work with you.

Any problems or questions with regard to your training program or schedule; please do not hesitate to contact any member of our team.

Please check out each team member's bio below.

Vicki, Studio Manager

When you visit or call the studio, it is likely to be Vicki's smiling face and voice that will initially greet you. As our Studio Manager, Vicki oversees all of administrative activities that keep our various programs on track, organized, and scheduled; moreover, and most importantly, she keeps our client support at an exceptional level!

Vicki's career path is extensive and in many different fields, all geared towards Management and Customer Service.  Vicki initially was a client before she joined our team.

In her own words, "As I was trying to figure out what I could do to get some exercise and be outdoors, I looked at other Boot Camps and was not pleased, then I found Ventura Adventure Boot Camp.  This was a double benefit for me as I was really feeling unhealthy, sick of the rat race of the corporate world and wanted a healthier environment in which to work.  As I started my first week in Boot Camp, I also decided to look for another career, which led me to an ad for an Administrative Assistant with True North Fitness.  At the time, I wasn’t aware that Adventure Boot Camp was part of True North Fitness. I was very pleased to meet with Rob and Shannon and find that I liked their vision and wanted to be a part of their caring and motivating success. I decided to follow my Compass and it pointed here, I’ve never felt happier".

Anthony Avila, Fitness Coach

Anthony was born and raised in Ventura, California. His interest in athletics and fitness began at the age of 5 when he was introduced to hockey. He has studied martial arts off and on throughout the years as well but hockey was his passion above everything else and dreamed of playing in the NHL. He played competitively with the Ventura Mariners, Club Team in Simi Valley – through the Southern California Hockey Association. He was sidelined at 17 with a knee injury and had to give up his hockey endeavors. “Hockey made me want to better myself and that’s when I got started in fitness. I wanted to be the best and do everything I could to make sure that happened.” It was after this third surgery that he decided to become a fulltime fitness coach and help others achieve and excel in their fitness ambitions. Anthony is a NESTA certified personal trainer.
