Club MAA

Pierre Blanchet, an avid sports fan and the CEO of Club Sportif MAA, has been working in the field of exercise since the '80s. Initially, he was a personal trainer and organized triathlon races. "Exercise has always been part of my life," says Pierre, who tries to share his passion for exercise with his members and employees so everyone will know its health benefits.

Pierre has every reason to be proud: not many sports clubs can boast as many services as the Club Sportif MAA, and few have such a rich history. Founded in 1881, The Montreal Association of Amateur Athletes at the time consisted of three sporting clubs: Lacrosse, Bicycle and Snowshoe. In 1905, the building was built on Peel Street in downtown Montreal, and in 1999, the Association was officially renamed the Club Sportif MAA.
