Robert Dempsey
I’m a Kinesiology graduate with years of experience coaching individuals, leading fitness programs, and promoting well-being, from gyms and varsity athletics to corporate wellness. I’m passionate about helping people feel strong, capable, and energized in their everyday lives. Outside of work, you’ll find me exploring new coffee spots, playing guitar, or running through the city.
Also... Based on the logo and theme of this page, you can probably guess that I'm a fan of coffee.

Missed a lot of classes because I was busy working more than full time trying to lead a successful business at 9Round. Nearly failed a spanish class due to attendance.
