Fitness Expert Lauded for his Personal Training Achievements

INFOFIT’s founding president and owner has been selected as the 2012 BCRPA Educator of the Year, adding yet another commendation to an exemplary record. André’s 28 years of experience have touched an untold number of lives, especially after following the clinical exercise and post-injury rehabilitation career track.

This fitness expert’s history includes presiding as managing partner over EnerChanges Medical, Health, Anti-Aging, and Fitness Clinic in Vancouver and serving four years on the teaching faculty of the School of Human Kinetics at the University of British Columbia, both of which increased his skillsets and abilities over the years and gave him a firm footing for cultivating future generations of personal trainers.

The BCRPA Registration has been a prominent part of André’s ongoing education and activities as he became a BCRPA Trainer of Leaders and noteworthy keynote speaker. He has even obtained the NSCA, ACE, and ACSM certifications as well, ever eager to expand his abilities.

More recently, André has been declared a 2012 BCRPA Educator of the Year. This fitness leadership award recognizes BCRPA Registered Fitness Leaders who have exhibited exceptional contributions to the community and their field, influencing the active and under-active to commit to a physically wholesome lifestyle in British Columbia.

This award features four primary criteria: demonstrating a commitment to personal learning, creating innovative teaching strategies to maximize learning, leadership within the fitness education community, and making a significant contribution to the credibility and promotion of British Columbia fitness leadership.

André also won the BCRPA Program Director of the Year Award in 2008, further establishing his place in the personal training industry from past to present. This proved his effective mentoring and staff-related motivational methods, developing unique programs that encouraged the community to be physically fit, and playing a significant role in fitness industry events and programs.

Mr. Potvin has a bright future as both a personal training leader and role model, and there is little doubt that this “fitness star” will continue his quest to bring a healthy lifestyle across Canada and the world for years to come.
