Meet Our Fitness Coordinators
Trevor Besse
“I joined the KurSpa team as Fitness Coordinator in the Summer of 2022. With over 30 years of experience in Health and Fitness as a Certified Personal Trainer, Rehabilitation-Assistant and Recreation Therapist, my passion has been helping people become the best version of themselves through activity and movement. Although a former bodybuilder, my own fitness goals took a backseat when I became a dad of four kids. By making some simple lifestyle changes, I was able to get back on track. When you find joy in your wellness process, you are more likely to crush your goals and maintain the change! Should you take part in one of my fitness classeses, it will be classic rock serving as my music backdrop. “Imagine” what you can do.”

I look forward to working with you and helping you feel your best during your stay!”
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take?
The entire assessment including discussion of your results is 30 minutes. You will be sitting inside the BOD POD® cabin for about 3 minutes. However, during that time, the door will be opened and closed between two to three 50-second trials.
What should I expect?
All you have to do is simply sit comfortably and quietly, relax, breathe normally and BOD POD® does the rest. You may notice a feeling similar to being in an elevator but most people are unaware of the slight pressure changes that take place.
How accurate is it?
The BOD POD® uses air displacement technology, considered to be the gold standard of body composition measurement. It is as accurate as hydro-static (underwater) weighing, but quicker and easier to perform. BOD POD® assessments are highly accurate, and can detect even small changes in body fat and lean body mass.
