“Hi Dimitri, Our son attended the Penalty Box Foundation training camp this past summer and I want to share with you the positive impact it had our son. Aside from the excellent on ice training our son received through Peter Bergamin we were equally as impressed with the fact he received off ice instruction which included the nutritional counselling. Our son Peter who is 8 years old starting requesting choices for meals since your classes, he ask for egg whites only, different cereals and ask us to read what is in the ingredients on the box. We were quite surprised how serious he took the information and how much he actually listened and absorb it. Thanks again Dimitri! “ Kim Jackson |

I arrived at Pure Motivation Fitness having been involved in the fitness industry for over 7 years. I am certified as a Personal Trainer Specialist with Can Fit Pro and received my Bachelor degree in Kinesiology and Health Science from York University. Soon after, I completed my Bachelor of Education at the University of Toronto.
“We only get one body to take us through this life so it is important to listen to it and develop a closer appreciation of it”. My approach to personal training is simple – discover your goal and design a routine to get you there. My programs are varied and creative, specifically addressing weight loss, muscle building, and core strength.
Physical fitness training has always been an essential part of my life.
From sports and weight lifting to Pilates and Yoga, physical activity gives me a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment that is second to none.
Through physical activity, I have met many wonderful people and have made many lasting relationships and friendships. I enjoy training people of all ages and fitness levels and look forward to helping you take an active part in creating the body you want to live in.
Motto:
How meaningful is our life if we never challenge ourselves or push ourselves to ahieve our best? The feeling of accomplishment and success after having to work hard for something you truly desired can never be replaced with anything else!

Francesca has been actively involved in fitness and nutrition for the past 10 years. Francesca and Dimitri began PMF in 2002 catering only to a hand full of private clients in condominium residents in G.T.A. Assisting her husband through numerous bodybuilding competitions and competitive sports, Francesca has a well rounded background in training and nutrition. Francesca feels that understanding what clients need in the gym isn’t necessarily as important as assisting clients out of the gym and in the kitchen. Her belief is that 80% of any changes to the human body occur from what you eat and not how hard you train. As the founder of the "Personalized Grocery Shopper", Francesca felt that gyms and personal training companies lacked the personal attention needed for clients when it came to choosing their foods. “It’s easy to tell someone what to eat, but harder to show them how to choose their foods!” So, she decided on creating our educational and time efficient service called the Personalized Grocery Shopper :where one of our professional staff will meet you at your favorite grocery store and help you make all the right food purchase decisions.
