Introducing Roman Thauern.

Exercise Specialist. Professional Kinesiologist.

Helping individuals achieving their goals has always been one of my passions in life. Since I was 16, I’ve been educating others about how to improve their physical performance, health, and body composition, while relying on the most current scientific research.

My coaching career began in my teens when I was hired to train a youth team in basketball for my sports club. I knew I’d found my passion for coaching immediately. For years I played semi-professional basketball in Germany which helped me understand that besides your technical skill, physical skill is key for top performance. This motivated me to get an education that helped me understand this relationship and how to improve it.

Since I was fortunate enough to study at one of the elite universities in Germany, I enjoyed receiving a top education and also conducted a lot of research. While attending school, my university hired me as a fitness trainer and later as the Head of the Strength and Conditioning Department. Through those positions, I learned how to work with individuals with diverse backgrounds including professional athletes. Through various internships, I gathered a lot of knowledge regarding injury rehabilitation as well as wellness for elderly people. These experiences match my qualifications and help me to support my trainees to this day.

Since moving to Canada I worked as a Personal Trainer in Alberta. I won the Employee of the Year Award and was voted Personal Trainer of the Year 2017, voted by the Red Deer Express newspaper. In 2020, I was a Nominated Trainer for Canada’s Top Fitness Trainers by Impact Magazine and I have been featured in the magazine. I love art. Besides coaching, I am a musician and painter. These are my favourite past times.

What People Are Saying

“I started training with Roman 1.5 years ago without ever stepping foot in a gym. From the very beginning, Roman was very supportive and nonjudgmental. He helped put me on a healthier path that went beyond the gym and focused on my diet and lifestyle choices as well. Roman is extremely educated when it comes to kinesiology and the complexities of the human body. He’s not your run-of-the-mill trainer but rather a true educated professional. On top of that, he’s an easy going guy who’s fun to spend time with. I’m extremely pleased with my results so far and would highly recommend Roman to anyone looking to improve their physical health and self image.”

— Eric W.

“When I met Roman I was a mess physically and emotionally. I was suffering from nerve damage and whiplash effects from an accident, smoking a pack plus a day, had a diet of aspartame and caffeine and was suffering from insomnia. Roman patiently worked with my training and diet, created meal plans, kept me motivated, and kept things in perspective. There were points early on when he probably should have drop me as a client because I was wasting his time and times when I wanted to quit training altogether, but he stood firm and saw things through. Where I stand today is because of Roman. I have no lingering effects from my accident, passed the Navy fitness test, run 5k a day, and can honestly say i don't know where I would be without him.”

— Cornelius V.

“Roman has helped me achieve and go beyond my own fitness goals. He has taught me how to be comfortable being uncomfortable.

He is professional in fitness, diet, kinesiology, body movements and so much more. I am stronger, healthier, more confident and happier since I began training with Roman 5 years ago.”
