Hey there! I’m Ramtin, and my fitness journey started 15 years ago, fueled by a deep passion for training and well-being. Over the years, I’ve honed my expertise in physical conditioning through a blend of hands-on experience and continuous learning.
My athletic roots trace back to competitive soccer and endless hours in the swimming pool, laying the groundwork for my dedication to weight training and overall physical development. Alongside my B.A.Sc in Mechanical Engineering, specializing in robotics and automation, I’ve crafted a unique biomechanical approach to fitness that combines my academic background with my fitness philosophy.
The gym became my sanctuary, where I built not just strength but also confidence. My mission now is to share these empowering tools and experiences gathered over the years with others. I firmly believe in helping individuals uncover their true potential and reach their fitness aspirations.
If you’re ready to embark on a transformative journey towards a healthier you, let’s connect! Reach out, and let’s collaborate to help you become your best self!

My name is Fritz, a personal trainer and group exercise instructor, leading high-energy and engaging classes that foster a sense of community and the joy of shared accomplishment. Certified by both YMCA and Active IQ, UK, I have honed my skills to provide top-notch training tailored to individual needs and group dynamics.
Coming from a fitness management background in the vibrant city of Dubai, I bring a global perspective to my training approach. My journey in the fitness industry has been enriched by collaborations with professional bodybuilders, gaining insights into advanced training techniques and nutritional strategies.
With a keen understanding of diverse fitness levels and goals, I craft personalized workouts that push boundaries and inspire breakthroughs. Whether you’re aiming for strength, weight loss, or overall wellness, my approach ensures a well-rounded and effective fitness experience.

I began a career in construction and civil engineering before transitioning to exercise science and personal training in 2001 after leaving Dubai. Coaching individuals for over 20 years, I am currently completing a degree in psychology with a focus on coaching personal change. A firm believer in the combination of academia and personal practice, I bring a unique, science-based perspective to fitness and personal development.
A former national drug-tested physique champion and trainer of professional athletes, I emphasize fundamental, evidence-backed approaches, steering clear of fleeting fitness trends while maintaining a rigorous personal training regimen – practicing what I preach.
The first questions that I will ask you as a prospective client is:
What is it that you’re looking for? And how can I help you reach that goal?
As a career fitness professional and passionate enthusiast, I’ve extensive experience in exercise and nutrition regarding rehabilitation, athletic performance, and aesthetic change. Feel free to ask me a question about exercise or nutrition anytime😊


Growing up in northern Ontario, I developed a deep passion for sports and performance, leading me to pursue a career in health science. In 2022, I moved to Kelowna to complete my Bachelor of Health and Exercise Science. Now, as a kinesiologist and a medical trainer for the Okanagan Rockets hockey club, I’m dedicated to helping individuals achieve their full potential.
With a background in junior hockey and a more recent transition into golf, I have firsthand experience with the demands of high-performance sports. I also understand the critical role that movement efficiency, injury prevention, and recovery play – not just for athletes but for everyone striving to lead an active, healthy lifestyle.
As a kinesiologist, I’m passionate about working with individuals – whether you’re an athlete returning to play, recovering from an injury, looking to improve performance, returning to work, or enhancing overall fitness. I create personalized, evidence-based programs that address your specific needs, focusing on functional movement assessments, corrective exercises, and strategies to build strength, mobility, and injury resilience.
Let’s work together to help you move better, perform stronger, and confidently take on the demands of daily life.

Hi there! I’m Faith Lockinger, a certified personal trainer with over 4 years of experience in the fitness world. My mission is simple: to help you feel comfortable, confident, and empowered in the gym—no matter your body type. Fitness is about more than just aesthetics; it’s about becoming the healthiest, most confident version of yourself, both inside and out.
I believe that everyone deserves to feel accepted and celebrated, especially in spaces like the gym, which can sometimes feel intimidating. I’ve been there—I know what it’s like to struggle with body insecurities, and it’s my passion to make sure my clients never have to feel that way. I’m here to guide you toward long-term results, sustainable lifestyle changes, and a love for the body you have.
Whether you’re new to fitness or a seasoned gym-goer, I’m here to support you every step of the way. Let’s break down the barriers, crush those fitness goals, and most importantly—fall in love with yourself!
With a bubbly, upbeat energy and a little sassy flair, I can’t wait to help you transform your body and mindset. Let’s get started!

Rosie lives, breathes and sleeps tennis; prerequisites for any travel destination are tennis courts.
Introducing tennis as a live sport to anyone will always be a top priority for Rosie, but especially kids.
Rosie is most proud of being part of the Senior National Team and having competed twice in Florida and once in Croatia with the team. Rosie has won numerous national and provincial titles in both singles and doubles, but being selected to represent Canada tops it all.
As a certified coach, Rosie is grateful for the opportunity to pass on her experience and love for the sport to everyone at Global Fitness. Contact Rosie to help you get better at the game.

I’m a tennis nut. 🙂
As a professional tennis coach and seasoned tennis player, I am well positioned to make a unique contribution to traditional coaching and to empower tennis players looking to up their game. Through my experience in tennis and other competitive sports, I use my own methodology and personal approach to help others excel and grow their game.
My coaching experience over the last several years, both in Canada and the US, has stimulated my interest in the science behind the game. I often use video analysis to reinforce what is being taught in order to eliminate the guessing game and speed up the learning process. I believe great tennis begins with technique, and I strive to make it the primary focus of my instruction.
I have recently moved to Kelowna from Toronto, and I am very excited about the opportunity to grow the sport locally and give something to the community.

An all-sport junkie, tennis was not Calvin’s first (or even second) choice to play. Forced to join his sister in a rec centre tennis camp ultimately led to a realization of how much fun the sport actually was.
Calvin is a provincial and national champion in both singles and doubles – multiple times. He was a regular member of Team BC (and the only player from the Okanagan). He was a double gold medalist at the Western Canada Summer Games and part of the top BC doubles team at Nationals. He has been ranked in the top 2 provincially and the top 20 country-wide. Apart from his successful junior career Calvin also played in multiple professional and open draws throughout BC. Having received Division 1 university offers in the USA, Calvin chose instead to remain in Kelowna – his favourite city in the world.
Following a brief hiatus from competitive play after his junior career, Calvin jumped back into tennis with both feet. Seeing the smiling faces of new tennis players every day reignited a fire for tennis that continues to burn brightly. This passion led Calvin down to Los Angeles over the summer to compete in numerous professional and semi-professional events. Training with former ATP pros, discussing tennis with National level coaches and celebrating the best win of his career were all highlights from his adventure. With his eyes set on the lofty goal of professional tennis, expect to see Calvin on court all the time training himself and others.
As a certified club professional coach, Calvin is grateful for the opportunity to pass on his technical skills, deep knowledge of the game and genuine appreciation for the sport to everyone at Global Fitness. He is personally committed to reaching ever higher levels of coaching ability and knowledge – all while keeping tennis the fun and fit sport it was always meant to be. Contact Calvin today to sign up!
We will use the same format as last year with a rotating schedule with start times of 6:00, 7:30, 9:00 so every week your start time will change.
Ladies who play at a nationally competitive level can apply with management at info@GlobalFitnessKelowna.com to play in the league.
It is imperative that each player commit to being there ready to play at the assigned times to be fair to the other players on the court. Each Player is responsible to find your own spare if you cannot make it any given week. If your spare wins the court, you do not move up but if your spare loses the court you do move down one court. If you do not arrange a spare, the first occasion you will be bumped down 2 Courts the following week, and the second occasion you will be removed from the league, with NO REFUND!
Spares: This year we have created a spare list. This is for male members 16 plus that cannot commit to the entire league nights but would like to spare occasionally.
If you are a female tennis player at Global and want to join a community of other women who love tennis, sign up for this Sunday night Ladies League. The level of play for this league is between tournament level 3.5 to 5.0 players. If you self-assess as a 3.0 or are unsure of what your level would be, please email or call Makena. If you have never played in the league before and this would be your first time, please email or call Makena. Please reach her at 250.826.2206 or reachingformoore@gmail.com before registering.
There are 24 spots available, first come first serve with payment. The format remains the same as previous seasons, where Courts 1/2/3 will play at 4-5:30pm and Courts 4/5/6 will play at 5:30-7pm. Matches will be played in doubles format, rotating partners with the other people on your assigned court. At the end of your 1.5 hour rotation, the number of games won will dictate what court you end up on the next week, providing you the opportunity to play with other ladies of the tennis community. We are looking for competitive women who want to be challenged by their fellow players and want to enjoy themselves on court.
Please ensure that you are committing to the whole 9 weeks of this league. If you cannot make the league on a night, you are responsible to find your own spare and ensure that they show up on time and ready to play. If your spare wins the court, you do not move up. If your spare loses the court, you do move down one court. If you do not arrange a spare, the first occasion you will be bumped down 2 Courts the following week, and the second occasion you will be removed from the league, with NO REFUND!
If you want to be on the Spare List only, please email reachingformoore@gmail.com with your name, best phone number, and your approximate level on a 3.0-5.0 scale plus what courts you have usually subbed for in the past.
Are you a racket sport player? Tennis, squash, pickleball, racquetball, ping pong, padel, etc.? You will want to check out this class, complete with bootcamp style workouts (i.e. high intensity interval training) that are designed to maximize your speed, strength, and power when on court!
Fellow tennis player and local Kinesiologist Makena will be your instructor for this class. She will lead you through circuits consisting of different agility, speed, power, force absorption/expression, stabilization, and strength components. All workouts will be done on Tennis Court #3 at Global.
While this workout is perfect for someone playing a racket sport, the foundation of the class is one that supports all sports and some of the key skills you must have to be an athlete. So if you are someone who does not play a racket sport but wants to improve their athleticism, feel free to join too!
You can attend just 1 or you can attend all 9! To reserve your spot, please email or text Makena at reachingformoore@gmail.com or 250.826.2206. All you have to do is let her know which dates you can make and she will get you registered on Global’s end, plus keep you up to date with details regarding the class(es) you have signed up for.
Makena looks forward to seeing you all on court where we can keep your sport and athletic fitness up over the winter!
