Our Story
Pond Performance started with a simple idea: recovery and performance shouldn't be separate conversations. Founder Bob Pond built his career working with athletes and everyday clients across strength training, hockey performance, and athletic therapy, and kept seeing the same gap — gyms that ignored recovery, and clinics that ignored performance. So he built a team that does both under one roof in Penticton. Today, Pond Performance works with athletes, active adults, and teams who want to move better, recover smarter, and perform at their best, backed by certified coaches and therapists who treat training and recovery as one continuous process, not two separate appointments.
