Mike and Hidesh met early in their careers as fitness professionals while they worked as personal trainers at the same gym in Calgary. They both enjoyed and excelled in working with clients and it was a common philosophy and shared passion that motivated them to start their own fitness company.

Inspired by their goal to be experts in all areas of training so they are able to serve their clients through all stages of life, the two have adopted the motto: “Fitness For Life”. First Step has been growing and improving since 2006.
