GP Wellness Spotlight: Sparks Athletics with Joe Kindratsky
One of the best parts of building the Wellness Guide Grande Prairie is getting to highlight the people who are genuinely making our community healthier, stronger, and more connected. Today’s spotlight is on Sparks Athletics, led by Joe Kindratsky.
Joe is a CanFit Pro Certified Personal Trainer and Group Fitness Instructor, a BioLayne Certified Nutrition Coach, and a Mobility Coach. His approach to fitness is thoughtful, personalized, and rooted in long-term wellbeing — not quick fixes or one-size-fits-all plans.
A Holistic Approach to Training
Sparks Athletics offers one-on-one personal training with fully customized programs designed around each individual’s goals, timelines, and available equipment. Joe understands that everyone’s starting point is different, and his programming reflects that.
What sets Sparks Athletics apart is the combination of:
Strength and conditioning
Mobility training to support recovery and longevity
Practical nutrition coaching to make progress sustainable and realistic
This well-rounded approach helps clients not only reach their goals, but maintain them in a way that fits into real life.
Group Workshops and Community Training
In addition to personal training, Joe also offers running training group workshops and intro to lifting group workshops. These sessions are ideal for anyone looking to learn proper technique, build confidence, and train alongside others in a supportive environment.
Joe is currently growing his client base and filling upcoming workshops, making this a great time to connect with Sparks Athletics if you’ve been looking for guidance, structure, or accountability in your fitness journey.
A Personal Note
I’ve personally attended a few of Joe’s classes and always leave feeling sweaty, strong, and encouraged. Joe has worked incredibly hard on his own fitness journey, and it’s inspiring to see more male instructors and trainers making a positive impact in Grande Prairie’s wellness community.
Why We Love Highlighting Local
At Awoke Wild and through the Wellness Guide Grande Prairie, our goal is to shine a light on local wellness professionals who are improving quality of life and helping our community feel better — physically and mentally.
If you’re looking to move better, feel stronger, and enjoy the process, Sparks Athletics is a local business worth supporting.
