About Me
My name is Tyler Shalla
I completed my personal training certifications at St. Lawrence College in Kingston in 2019. I went on to pursue my athletic therapy degree at Sheridan College completing it in 2023. I have a variety of experience working in the sports setting and has also been a group exercise instructor at F45. I believe that everyone needs exercise and there is no better way to do it safely and effectively than with a personal trainer. Whether you are a young athlete trying to improve your speed, agility, strength, power, etc., or someone that has balance issues and wants to avoid falls then we can help you at Movewell Rehabilitation Services.
