STRONG, CONFIDENT & CAPABLE - KIND, COMPASSIONATE & HAPPY

BARRIE - KETTLEBELL - CLUB

Coach Shawn Charlebois

Movement Based Strength & Conditioning is my philosophy. BKC members are Strong, Confident & Capable. I treat you like family and help you move, look and feel better 1 training session at a time.

WE HAVE FUN TOO

It's not uncommon for BKC members to be laughing and have conversations between sets.

Using Calisthenics, Kettlebells, Barbells and Odd Objects training is effective, safe & always interesting. Start where you are, work hard and there is no limit for you!

The TRUTH is it's really about connecting with people, giving them some time and listening. We get stronger as a community and show support for one another. This positive IMPACT spreads throughout every other facet of YOUR life.

"I don't operate on a high volume, it's about quality for me not quantity"

Strength and Happiness to you,

Both are your choice! My name is Coach Shawn Charlebois, an introverted guy who changed the direction of his life through STRENGTH & CONDITIONING. I'm not a ftness model or an unrealistic trainer who lives in dream land. BKC is my gym. It's not uncommon to hear "there's just a family-like atmosphere" and training kicks ass. Workouts are never the same but similar to make progress, I coach you every step of the way.

"I help people gain confidence in their physical abilities and improve the way they feel, look and think. I do this through Movement, Mindset and Community"

  • I know how it feels to be weak and the smallest.
  • I know how it feels to be picked on.
  • I know how it feels to be trapped BUT
  • I also know how it feels to be strong and successful.

If this resonates with you, keep reading.

I've been living my dreams for over 7 years now as a husband, gym owner, coach and author. Being a former Corrections Officer (8 years) I understand what it feels like to be trapped in a circumstance. I was depressed for most of my career in law enforcement. While it wasn't completely the fault of the jail culture, knowing that I was meant for other work, created an internal struggle. Facing that struggle catapulted me into a success minded state. After the first 5 years inside, I learned to assess my situation, plan my ultimate objective and take action. It was no one else' responsibility to look out for my best interest. I did not rest until I was released.

So while you may not be surrounded by four walls, you still may be able to relate. The feeling of being trapped in a cycle or being weak (physically and mentally). Perhaps you feel shackled by another aspect of your life.

I'm here to tell you, nothing will improve your circumstance, health and life better than gaining physical strength. I worked hard to create an optimal environment at BKC. You will acquire physical strength, there's a mental shift that simultaneously occurs. Suddenly:

-YOU DON'T identify as a victim

-YOU Can

-YOU Will

YOU Now think:

- IF OTHERS CAN, SO CAN I

- NOTHING WILL STOP ME

- STRONG, CONFIDENT & CAPABLE

EARN YOUR STRENGTH
