Tell us a little more about the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition

CSNN Ottawa offers both full-time and part-time in-class studies in Natural Nutrition. Students can study in the daytime or the evening. The Natural Nutrition Program prepares holistic nutrition professionals in a very practical way to meet this goal through counselling individual clients as well as through community education. Through supervised case studies, the students learn to do individual client assessments and to give nutritional recommendations.

The connection between body, mind and spirit is an integral and important part of these studies. It is scientifically demonstrated that our state of mind and spiritual wellbeing affect our physical health. The study of this well-established phenomenon is not linked to any religious creed. It is purely academic and aims to enlighten in a broad way about the effects of life experiences and circumstances, on health.

The Natural Nutrition Program consists of 17 courses (note: one course split for Distance Education format), covering natural nutrition relevant to each stage of life, as well as sciences, research and fundamentals of business. It provides a strong foundation for a career in the complementary health industry. Well-qualified teachers and dedicated managers ensure that your experience at CSNN will be successful and worthwhile.

What sets your business apart from other businesses in the health and wellness field?

As Canada’s largest, leading school of holistic nutrition, being the first to offer classroom format, CSNN is nationally recognized for its standards of excellence in regards to its curriculum, methods, instructors, and student results that raise the bar in the growing holistic nutrition industry. CSNN’s curriculum is regulated by the provincial education ministries that regulate private career colleges.

What clients do you enjoy working with most?

Anyone with a passion for health and well-being!

Who is velofix Ottawa?

velofix Ottawa is a mobile bicycle shop. They offer all the same servi velofix ces that a bike shop offers but with the added convenience of coming to YOU! With velofix, you get 1-on-1 time with your mechanic so that you can learn about your bike, ask any questions you might have and have the most transparency around your service.

Every velofix van is equipped with all the tools and parts to work on any bike: from entry level to high-end, from road bike, to mountain bikes, city bikes and more!

Their vans even have coffee machines, internet, fun accessories and a range of options for all cyclists. You can book your service online at www.velofix.com 24/7 and the vans are available 7 days a week.

How does velofix Ottawa help people achieve a greater level of health or wellness?

velofix Ottawa wants to keep you riding. Their goal is to make it easier for you to choose to ride whenever possible. If your bike is in top shape, they hope that you’ll be able to grab your bike for local errands, or for some daily exercise. Ottawa, especially the East End, has amazing cycling infrastructure and if you’re not taking advantage of it, you’re missing out!

They repaired over 3,000 bikes last year and are growing that number every year. By not having to bring your bike anywhere for a service, and being able to get to know the mechanic working on your bike, and having the ability to learn about your bike during the process -they hope that you’re more motivated than ever to get on your bike!

What inspires velofix Ottawa to do the work they do?

Their favorite part of the job is empowering people to use their bike. A bike can be a form of exercise, a form a transport, a great stress-reliever and above all, it’s FUN! When they’re able to keep someone on their bike and teach them something new about their ride, they couldn’t be happier.
