On January 4 at Central Social Hall in downtown YEG, we not only held the launch of our January edition but also celebrated the achievements of many Edmonton area fitness studios and wellness practitioners. Over 100 nominees were selected by our readers as their favourite personal trainers, gyms, yoga studios and therapists. It was tough to just award one winner in each category, but here is this years crop of those selected by our readers as the Best Of YEG Thrive 2016 Award Winners

Here’s the list of this years winners (under all the photos). Each winner was selected by our readers and received the most nominations in each category. We’d be happy to have you share the photos but would appreciate photo credit be given to Jeffrey Paul Kelly Photography (@jeffreypaulkelly)
