Xtra Hot: Austin

Austin trains to physically express his creativity through fire spinning, dance and parkour

Inspired by “individuals who have faced extreme hardships but have managed to embrace the beauty in their lives,” Austin, a personal trainer and the owner of Primal Motion, defines his work as “helping people achieve their fitness goals by optimizing their posture, teaching them how to master essential movement patterns and by building incredible functional strength.” Austin trains to physically express his creativity through fire spinning, dance and parkour. By day, he likes to hang out in Kensington Market; at night, you can find him in the Distillery District. His favourite haunt is Guu SakaBar at Bloor and Bathurst. Austin likes meeting inspiring people and dancing, and his guilty pleasure is cigars. “Pair that up with a quality ale or scotch and I’m in heaven. It’s a nice way to indulge while taking some time to reflect on life.”
