Wow. It’s hard to believe that this is our 8th Best of YEG Fitness Awards. Each year we have been asking our readers to nominate their favourites in a variety of health and wellness categories to celebrate the achievements of those businesses.

On February 15, we hosted our online awards show on our YouTube page and awarded the top prize to the best studios and wellness professionals in 17 categories. Check out the full video to see who won.

We look forward to welcoming the winners and their guests on February 22 at the Canadian Icehouse between 7-9pm to pick up their awards and celebrate with us. Get your tickets.
