Michelle Krack Michelle has earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Physics & Kinesiology and has recently completed her Master’s Degree in Education and is currently a Physics & Math high school teacher. Michelle has been involved in the Bodybuilding & Fitness Industry for over 20 years. She began competing in 2006. Michelle earned her IFBB Pro Card in 2012 in her hometown, Vancouver. A decision was made shortly after to put competing on hold to begin judging and promoting local contests. Her first contest, The Krack Klassic took place in 2014. She has dedicated the last 6 years in organizing and promoting. This dedication has culminated in promoting an IFBB Pro Show, an IFBB pro Qualifier and a regional show. The Vancouver Pro/Am & Expo 2020 will be the sixth year for this successful show. The Pro/Am is the largest fitness contest in Canada's west. The Okanagan Fitness Festival is in its third successful year and is a qualifier for several IFBB Pro qualifiers across Canada. Michelle is also a certified judge for the CPA as well as a judge for the IFBB Professional League. In addition to promoting Michelle is also a certified CPA Judge and an IFBB Professional League Judge. Michelle's goal and commitment is to give back to the fitness community that has helped her grow within the fitness industry. Ryan Malo My name is Ryan Malo and I’m from Winnipeg Manitoba currently living now in the province of Quebec. I first got into bodybuilding in 2000 and competed in my first event in 2002. Since then I have competed in many regional, National and even international shows. Aside from being a competitor I also started working with clients and founded my training company MassMeltdown in 2008. I have just recently become involved with promoting the sport of Bodybuilding in 2018 with the first ever CPA event in Manitoba called the VanDijk Classic. In 2019 I added the VDC Natural and now in 2020 I am a proud promoter and co-promoter to 3 CPA events. The VanDijkClassic, VDC Natural (Winnipeg) The GoClassic (Gatineau) which I am co-promoter and my very first NPC Worldwide event The Cancun Classic (Cancun, Mexico) in which I am a co-promoter. I am very blessed and I hope to continue to grow these four events and provide top quality shows for ALL athletes.
