Success Story - Registered Massage Therapy at Endurance on 8th Health Centre 

Just wanted to say THANKS for all the quality massage treatments at Endurance on 8th Health Centre, and for the great job keeping the practice running so smoothly. The massage treatments are an integral part of my training and recovery regimen as a weekend warrior cyclist, and tonight I was able to cap off a good 2013 race season with a 2nd place finish at the Jason Lapierre criterium held in downtown Calgary.

2012 Brings Exciting New Change!!! Welcome NPAA to Canada!!!

We are very proud to announce that Calgary, Alberta will be the headquarters for a new, innovative and exciting bodybuilding, figure and model organization. The NPAA (Natural Physique and Athletics Association) is founded by Dr. Kevin Ashby and Dr. Wendy Carvalho-Ashby. Both Kevin and Wendy have been actively involved in the physique and athletics community as competitors, Doctors, trainers, nutrition coaches, directors and now as the presidents of NPAA."We love this sport and as such take great pride in providing athletes with the best possible experience they can have on and off the competition stage".

The Natural Physique and Athletics Association will provide athletes the opportunity to earn their "All Canadian" NPAA Elite-Pro Status.  The unique aspect of our federation is that athletes will have the ability to go past the traditional Canadian Pro-Card level, and they can advance from Elite-Pro status and earn an International Fitness & Physique Association (IFPA) Pro card.  NPAA is the only Canadian Amateur Affiliate for the IFPA, allowing competitors from Canada to qualify for "true natural international events" as IFPA pro's. 

The NPAA Canadian Classic will be held on May 20, 2012 at The University of Calgary Theatre. Athletes in the categories of bodybuilding, figure, fitness model, bikini model and masters will grace the stage and compete. We are excited to announce that Dynamis will be searching for athletes to sponsor at the NPAA Canada Classic!  

We are thrilled to have your support, and encourage you to visit and "like" our facebook page and event pages so you can be updated on current NPAA news!

Happy New Year, and lets have an incredible year of training, health, wellness and competing in a sport we love!!

Support the Alberta Health Trust for Neonatal Intensive Care Units

 

 

What an opportunity to give back...

In 2010 Endurance on 8th's Doc's Wendy & Kevin were blessed with the birth of their bouncing baby boy. "We were lucky, he was three weeks early but had no complications, and was a healthy baby boy". Many families across the country, face a more challenging process after the birth of their children. Many babies must spend time in Neonatal Intensive Care Units, and fight every day to survive.

At Endurance on 8th Health Centre, we were touched by the story of one of our friends, and want to encourage you all to give back in what ever way you can. Mother Day is Sunday May 8th, and Marks the Annual Mothers Day Road Race. If you are not already involved in the walk/run, then you can give back by making a donation.

If you are not already convinced here is the story of Caeden... "Caeden was born prematurely, weighing only 2 lbs and 3 oz. After 10 weeks Caeden was discharged home from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit provided dedicated care for Caeden during the first few months of his life."
