Our Founders, Matt & Nair

Introducing Matt and Nair, a pair with a shared passion for fitness and people.

Matthieu Massicotte & Nair Flores
Co-founders

California meets Montreal

Hailing from Montreal, Matt is a CPA and a partner at his thriving finance advisory firm. Nair, a Californian and a biomedical engineer turned lawyer, has led multiple IP and legal departments at tech startups and has been practicing high-intensity Pilates for over 15 years since discovering it in Los Angeles. Nair and Matt’s collective fitness past spans over 40 years of experience with yoga, running, soccer, tennis, weight training, climbing, and even motorcycle racing (Matt, NOT Nair). But their greatest collaboration is raising their two lively daughters in California and Montreal.

Now, they’re thrilled to introduce Resistance to Montreal, inviting everyone to join them in their quest for wellness, personal growth and energy. It’s more than just a routine; it’s about building a stronger, healthier community, one day and one workout at a time.
