Alex Mitro

Hello! My name is Alex Mitro, I am a 30 year old male fitness instructor, and I live in Guelph, Ontario, Canada!

A little bit about me: I work full-time at the University of Guelph in the Wood Centre, where we support students in launching their own business ventures. I’m a Program Coordinator, so I plan events, workshops, and guest lectures, manage our student team, and run our MakerSpace (which includes everything from 3D printers to laser engravers). My background is actually in biotechnology and cell genetics, but I completed a Project Management certificate in 2021 that’s helped me branch into new roles across different industries—including fitness!

I started taking high intensity fitness classes at a local studio in 2022 with my best friend and quickly fell in love with the group fitness community. I’ve been attending bootcamp, HIIT, cardio strength, and core classes about four times a week ever since. I've met some of my best friends through fitness classes and the sense of community really inspired me to become an instructor myself.

I received my certification through the University earlier this year, and am now Canfitpro certified as well. I was quickly hired on at the University after my training, and I am now teaching 1-hour adult bootcamp and HIIT classes twice a week at two different studios, in addition to my full-time position.

I’d love to connect to learn more about Fit Bodies, the classes offered, and the locations looking for group fitness instructors!
