We hope everyone has an amazing valentines day! A small fact is that partners who work out together can reap some amazing positive benefits. Often, a workout partner can help keep you motivated, push you harder, and ultimately help you accomplish more.

Yesterday was a hard day at LiveActive. We say our goodbyes to one of the oldest members of our team and a great friend, Tiana Ringer. She is leaving the North and heading to warmer climates with her partner, and we wish them all the best with their new start in California.
🔻

Tiana’s impact at LiveActive has shaped not only who we treat but how we treat our patients. She wears her passion for helping others on her sleeve and has been selfless with her patients and co-workers alike. Tiana is responsible for kick starting the Fit to Serve physiotherapy program, directed at first responders. Her goal for the program was not only to rehabilitate injured first responders but to prepare them for every situation their job presented as well. Through strengthening, movement, injury prevention, and on-going care, she has impacted the lives of fire fighters, nurses, paramedics, and police officers alike.
🔻

Thank you for all your hard work, your guidance, and most of all your friendship! If California is too hot, you’re always welcome here!
🔻
Huge thanks to the for helping us throw one hell of a send off! Definitely take a look at the incredible work they are doing in the ring as well as our out of it!! @ Toronto, Ontario
