Driven Life Coaching

My experience was not great. I wanted to support a local company and I knew other people who had used Driven Performance so I was excited. But what I got for 3 months and $1500 was Mickey Mouse and not professional. Yes they gave me the nutrition template for weight loss success but past that everything failed. Now I have joined Eat To Perform and am impressed. This is what I thought I would be getting and at more than quarter the cost.
No one ever followed up on me or answered my questions at the end of my experience all they were concerned about was if I was continuing.

I discovered Driven in Instagram 7 months ago. The information and results caught my attention because I have been trying to lose weight for over 6 years, but have struggled to find time to workout, eat the right things, and have given up multiple times on other diets I've tried.
After speaking with Miguel, I made the commitment to go for it, with the intention that this would be the last 'diet' I would ever try.
Fast forward 7 months and I have lost almost 15 pounds, learnt so much about nutrition, mindset and found a wonderful community. My coach Anissa is a dedicated, wonderful human being who has been there every step of the way and believed in me when I didn't.
Above all, this now feels like a lifestyle change that is sustainable in the long run and I would recommend Driven to anyone who wants to rediscover themselves by making mindful choices.

DRIVEN, Miguel and team have supported me along my weight loss and mindset journey. They provide a one-one coach, nutrition and fitness plan and weekly coaching zoom calls. Highly recommend DRIVEN if you are ready to lose the weight for good. Their process works and it's enjoyable. I never thought I would ever see my 6-pack again and now at almost 50, I have it back! Thank you Miguel and team. You guys are the best.

I absolutely love Driven. When you have those days where you think you can't do it, you will always have a support system to help push you forward.
All my questions go answered. It is nice to have coaching calls to be able to increase my knowledge in fitness/nutrition.
I am obsessed with the in-person classes. I absolutely love them!

It is nice to know you have that support there. Such wonderful humans working at Driven

Outstanding staffs and great faculty. They'll help you focus and make sure you'll get to your goals!

Driven Life coaching has changed my life! I was struggling to loose the extra baby weight for months before a came across Driven Life. I was so impressed with the accountability, and motivation this group of people have to offer. I was able to tone up and loose fat that I was struggling with for months! Troy and Ashlan both stood by my side and were able to ask the hard questions that helped me put things in perspective. Coach Troy was on point with my workouts and was able to help me achieve my fitness goals! The nutrition supplements and support was very helpful, making it a life changer and not just a crash diet! Thanks for everything you have done for me!

Outstanding staffs and great faculty. They'll help you focus and make sure you'll get to your goals!

I have tried for YEARS to lose fat and it never worked for me. Then during the pandemic I thought I'd sign up for one of Driven Life's online challenges. I liked the fact that I could workout at home because I am VERY shy! I needed the accountability factor though, someone to keep pushing me on. It worked, I lost my first 30 pounds and I am on my way to losing my total goal of 100 pounds. My trainer Melody Rowe is AWESOME! Everyone at Driven Life is top notch and I highly recommend you try them!

Intensely supportive, no-nonsense crew who really work hard to get to know the client. Expectations are explained very clearly that as their client, they need us to be accountable and own our journey. A great collaborative team. I love being a part of the Driven family!

Driven is so knowledgeable. I have been with them since September and have lost 55lbs. They have taught me so much about lifestyle even with a busy family. I still am able to eat what I enjoy (in moderation of course). It is a great family to be apart of. Everyone is helping each other out. Thank so much to the team. Definitely changed my life forever.
Driven life 4 life!

Best Fitness Center. They are a real family.
Do not hesitate. This is the place you’ve been looking for.
Life changing programs

Miguel and his team are top notch. I signed my 15 year old son up with Driven when covid first hit so he could continue training during the off time from football. We asked Miguel to bulk him up and Miguel and his team built him an workout program and gave him some great food ideas for food. This was very successful for my son as he put on 30 lbs of muscle in a few short months. A few months later I decided it was my turn to take control ot my life and called Driven I'm now 5 months into my journey and down 37lbs. Again my coach put together a workout plan that works for me and challenges me. My coach encourages me and keeps me accountable always reachable when I need and helps me with both my goals and my mental health when needed. If you are thinking about taking control of your life weather it be to bulk up or lose weight this is the palce to call you won't be disappointed. Miguel has put together an awesome group of trainers and a supportive family within Driven

Miguel and team are amazing to work with. The accountability really helps me stay focused and on track. They are teaching you a lifestyle instead of a diet. Something that can be sustained within daily life. 10/10 recommended to anyone looking for a a better way of life.

I joined up with Driven about 5 months ago, looking for some accountability and lifestyle coaching as I was struggling to make meaningful changes in my day to day habits. Having been down the fitness road a time or two before, I assumed getting "back on the horse" was just a matter of going back to things I had done before. It wasn't. A lot changes from your 30s to your 40s, and I was struggling to keep myself accountable. Enter Miguel and his team, and their community. These folks will boost you up, check in on you, provide invaluable workout opportunities and support for your own regime, and keep you on the path to your goals, whatever they may be. The people here are all real folks, with real emotions, real highs and lows, and none of the unattainable, 100% manufactured bs that comes with the unsustainable hype fads that pop up like weeds every few months. They teach you how to make lasting changes in your habits, and attitude, and will hold your hand while you get your feet back under you. If you're looking for a community of people to help you keep your goals in sight, and your feet on the path to success, as well as a vast wellspring of collective knowledge and know-how, you'll find it here.

I've been with Driven for about a year. It probably would have been less time, if I listened to instructions. *laughs* However, I was coming off a couple of major surgeries, and my focus was different than most. While I wanted to lose weight, what was more important for me is quality of life, energy, and functionality of movement. I'm still plugging along, with way more energy than I had previously. What I learned from driven also had residual transfer benefits to other areas of my life. It's a whole body, and mind workout here. They get into the core of emotional eating, help with one on one coaching, accountability and the works. If you're thinking about starting with a gym, start with this one. It will be the last one you need.

I’ve tried other programs and fitness groups, but the level of support and accountability from the Driven Team is in a league of its own! It’s been great! There is no magic pill, and nobody can lose my weight for me, but with the coaching and help I’ve gotten from Miguel and the rest of the team, I feel like I’m changing habits, reaching goals and taking ownership, which only gets me closer to the best version of myself. Highly recommend Driven for any level of fitness, from beginner to elite.

Driven life is an amazing business, coach Miguel and his team are great! I would highly recommend this business if you are looking to not just lose weight but make some significant life changes to your health. Ongoing coaching, support, and accountability!

Through 1-on-1 accountability coaching, Driven was able to help me shed 20 lbs. They have also taught me life long healthy habits to manage food intake, stress and triggers, etc that I will be practicing beyond my time with them.

DRIVEN isn’t your typical gym. They have REAL coaches, with real coaching plans. They produce results. The transformations are real. I’ve talked to several people who have gone through the Driven program and seen massive differences in their mental and physical health. The coaches truly care about the clients and it shows. I would absolutely recommend Driven.

I love the fact that is gym doesn't have a gym vibe and you can come as you are they accept you for you no judgement the owners are two of the nicest people I have met this is like my secondary family pushing me to better myself thank you Driven

Great team with great support and message for health and wellness. Highly recommend this for anyone needing reset restart no matter age
goals.very welcoming crew. The online workouts and talks are insporing as well.

I highly recommend Miguel Diaz and their team. They go above and beyond for clients by adding much more value to the experience than what you pay for. Really grateful for their training and my transformation!

I’m so grateful for my time with DP fitness. The team was great with many workout options available from home.
Natalie was awesome! She was encouraging, supportive, understanding and worked with me from where I was at without judgement even when I was frustrated and hard on myself.
Highly recommend

Miguel and the Driven Performance team are a great group and offer an easy to use program that really helps get results. The personalized plans and accountability makes a difference in finding the right elements and uncover what's holding you back. The kindness of the team is very comfortable too and make it easy to give them my top recommendation.

I recently completed my 21 day trial and I’ll be back for more! The team was supportive and motivating, and I was impressed with the online setup they had in place to continue helping clients during the pandemic. I have zero fitness equipment at home, but Natalie managed to put together a great plan for me. Five stars!

I joined Driven Performances 21 day home challenge and lost 11lbs in 3 weeks! Their coaches are fantastic and motivated to help you reach your goals!

Driven is amazing and the encouragement from the trainers is on another level because it doesn’t stop when you leave the building. Online support groups and daily check ins help people attain their goals with maximum effect.

Driven was easily one of the best choices I've made to start my fitness journey. The team is knowledgeable, friendly and super supportive. The driven community is one of the most supportive communities I've ever been a part of an I feel so lucky to be a part of it. Thank you to my driven family for helping change my life so that I can be the best me I can be!

Driven performance has such an amazing atmosphere! Everyone supports everyone else! It’s not like showing up to a gym and no one cares if you go or not. You look forward to the people you are there with and they help you be accountable. They also encourage you and share in your victories! So happy to be a part of such an amazing family! Thank you DP! ️

Driven Performance is arguably the best fitness facility in Nanaimo, if not the island, and here is why:

1.) One-on-one trainer support. A trainer will give you guidance anytime you need it throughout your journey. The trainer will teach you about nutrition/tracking, monitor your progress, and hold you accountable. Most importantly, the trainer will provide you with emotional support and advice along the way.

2.) Group classes and personal training options. With both of these options, the trainer will teach you about proper form and motivate you. The trainers have compassion, energy, and humour. Driven Performance offers a variety of different classes to suite anyone’s needs and constantly changes things up to keep it interesting.

3.) Member support and engagement. Members support one another in class, online and through social events. The trainers want to get to know you and take part in these events too.

4.) Positive atmosphere. I feel that this is the most important element that sets Driven Performance apart from all other places. There is no judgement here, no matter what your fitness level. There is a feeling of acceptance as soon as you walk through the door to make you want to come back. It can be very intimidating starting at a new place, not knowing anyone and not being in the best shape. Everyone is in it together and supports one another. The trainers truly want to help you and are some of the kindest people you will ever get to know.

This place is much more than larger fitness facilities that don’t care about your wellbeing. If you truly want to make a change in your life, this is the place to start!

I have tried so many different things to lose weight and feel healthy and I have never stuck to any of it until I found driven it's the first place I feel unjudged and completely supported. They have great accountability tools that really make you stick to it. And it's not a fad diet, it's about finding stability and a program that is a life style change and easy to follow no matter who you are.

Driven Performance continually impresses me. The accountability and extra guidance they provide to manage my food intake has allowed me to make and maintain the life long lifestyle changes needed. Thank you for establishing such a strong support network! With help from the Driven Team and family I have the strength to change my life. If you want to change your life JOIN US! Don't deny yourself the opportunity to change and grow even one more day!

Driven Performance Fitness is legitimately the solution for those of you who have tried everything else with no luck. This gym does not have the high sales pressure that other gyms all seem to have. Miguel is genuinely just interested in making as positive of an impact on as many lives as possible. I am so grateful I stepped through their doors in January.

They’re voted the best gym facility & best personal trainer for a reason.
By far the best choice I’ve made to help my self.
The group of people there and trainers are all so amazing, you feel like family from day 1
The work outs are like nothing else I’ve ever done, huge variety and a lot of time slots so you can always find a class that works for you

The support is unbelievable!
With countless messages from different trainers right from the start heckimg on me asking how I’m doing how the classes are if there’s anything more they could be doing. & helping with a good diet plan witch has always been so hard for me to do.
This group has also done so many outside activities such as group hikes walks runs frisbee golf movies.family camps.everything just making it feel like one big happy family and great support system!

I highly recommend this to anyone,
You won’t regret checking it out.
The good energy is so addicting

Joined DPF 5 weeks ago and they are just on a different level. From the personal trainers and staff that care and put in the extra effort. EVERY DAY.to the community. Organizing events, pushing each other and supporting each other! This is not "just" a gym! It's no wonder they have been voted the best local gym and best local trainer 3 years running! If you need help or just that little extra nudge. Well thank me after your 2 week free trial!

Thank you Jo-lynn for always helping me through every class! You Rock! IT doesn't matter what I'm struggling with or how many times I ask for help Jo-lynn always helps with a smile. Miguel and his team are all very friendly!
