We believe that being an athlete is a mindset and a way of life. Our body was created to move.

After 6.5 incredible years with us, our very first hire, RMT Andrew Lefler, is moving on to an exciting new chapter. His last day at Defy will be Tuesday, September 30, before he heads to Waterloo to flex both his massage skills and his muscles as a Strength & Conditioning Coach at Depth Training. 💪
