Our Story
An idea, a passion and a brand
Fitness Junky has been growing its community since 2005 starting its humble beginnings at Durham Women’s Fitness in Whitby. It began with an IDEA, A PASSION and a BRAND for a small retail store. Although the store and studio closed during the recession of 2008, Stephanie Medford vowed to keep this community moving through education offered via Canadian Fitness Professionals Inc. (canfitpro) for Personal Trainers and Fitness instructors. In more recent years, as Master Trainer for SoulBody™Fitness, Stephanie has been sharing her love of dance influenced and barefoot strength workouts with a global community. Recently recognized as one of Canada’s Top 100 Female Fitness Health Leaders 2021!
Stephanie and her team are honoured to serve a commUNITY of fitness junkys and enthusiasts via Virtual classes and Fit Pro Mentorship. Our team welcomes you to a community of Fitness Junkys
Are live virtual classes impersonal? Just the opposite, according to Stephanie. She finds that running her studio online allows her the time and space to connect with her crew in a way that feels even more intimate than in-person classes. The feeling of comfort that her clients get from working out at home – and the option to turn their cameras off until they are ready – lets them find joy in movement and be themselves. That’s what this former dancer is all about. Good Moves is sponsored by Punchpass. Visit punchpass.com to learn more about our simple fitness booking software.

Stephanie is a great instructor. She always explains the "whys" behind movements to ensure they are done properly for maximum benefit, and she genuinely cares about all her students' fitness goals.

Motivated and ready to take on whatever the week throws at me! Amazing how one sweat dropping and motivating Zumba class does for one's soul! Thanks Stephanie for making Sunday mornings so fun!

I am just restarting my fitness with the goal of keeping it up long term! I have just started sampling the classes of FitnessJunky but really super surprised at how much I enjoy the workout. Virtual settings are awesome for us beginners! Love the mix of yoga, pilates and strength building.

I have enjoyed all of Steph's Zumba and fusion classes. Her energy and passion for dance makes it so much fun. It doesn't feel like a workout but more like a dance party!! Always a great time!!

Before everything changed, I hit the gym all the time and thought I had everything under control. Than Covid happened. Quarantine 15 is being gracious in my world. I was eating crap and not working out at all. Home workouts where NOT for me! That all changed once I found out the beautiful and incredible Stephanie was hosting Zoom classes with Fitness Junky Movement. I wasn’t sure if I’d enjoy virtual but tried it out. Well, it changed my entire world. Not only do I have something to look forward to again, but I feel like I’m working out with people in the Zoom room and a bonus is I’m down 10lbs!l in just a few weeks! While I’m not going back to the gym physically, come September I will 100% be signing up for all that Fitness Junky Movement has to offer!!!
Thank you so much Stephanie for making this possible!!!!
