Rosedale Holiday Get Together!

For Your Information No Comments

Hello Everyone,

We would like to invite you to come by our new space, Totum Performance, on Saturday November 26th, between 3 and 5 pm, for some holiday cheer. For those of you who are interested in seeing our new space, this gives you that opportunity while you enjoy Mulled Wne and delicious treats provided by Cafe Shu.

Following this open house we will be heading next door to Scrivener Square to watch the lighting of the blue tree on the train bridge as part of the 2011 Cavalcade of Lights.

Both of these events are great for families as we will have healthy treats and smoothies for your children, and there are lots of kids activities at Scrivener. Totum Performance will be a great place to warm up, and get ready for the Rosedale tree lighting ceremony at 6pm.

We hope to see you on Saturday!

Why Totum?

For Your Information No Comments

Regularly I scratch my head thinking about our industry and the intense competition that exists between entities that are truly black and white in what they offer. Imagine just going out to buy a car and not really knowing that the Ford Focus is very different than the Mercedes. Of course you would purchase based on price because you would not understand where the differences lie.


I’m not suggesting we are Mercedes, but I also know we are not a Ford Focus. What I do know is our industry and where we sit within it. For those of you who aren’t aware, Totum has one of the best reputations from industry professionals within Toronto. There are also a pretty large group of clients that are in the 10 year plus club who would agree with this assessment. This has come from a lot of hard work, amazing team members and what I would call a relentless focus on being better. For good and bad, that’s the way we are and the way we always will be.

So if you are looking at our site for the first time, or you are returning for the 50th, you now know you are reading about a place where the benefits of our approach truly are passed along to members and clients on a daily basis. A place where you are important, your goals are important and your success is important. From our perspective, there’s no other reason to be here?

Places We Love to Run – part 5

Fitness, For Your Information No Comments

I have to say, for me running has truly turned into a family outing. My boys hop on their bikes, I put lil’ Lulu on her leash, and off we go. It’s really a great time for us to get together, talk about our day, and get some good family exercise.

Oh, and I kinda like that my favourite place to run (the west end rail path) is only a few blocks from my house!

Hope to see you out there, Mary-Catherine
