FEATURED STAFF THE ARBUTUS CLUB
Maria Grazia Postiglione
spa supervisor and esthetician We are thrilled to introduce Maria Grazia Postiglione, our new Supervisor in the Spa at Arbutus. Maria was born and raised in Ischia, Italy, a volcanic island situated in the Gulf of Naples. Ischia is famous for thermal baths and natural hot springs, making it a favourite destination for tourists seeking some pampering. Growing up in a family that owns a health and beauty store, Maria learned all about the spa industry, becoming tremendously knowledgeable about skin care and spa treatments. Maria’s motto is that “life is all about balance”. When Maria is not working, she is spending time with family, visiting new places, or taking long walks. Though, she also quite enjoys staying home and watching a series on Netflix or reading motivational books. Both warm and incredibly friendly, Maria offers relaxing facials, beautiful manicures, pedicures, and a variety of other treatments.
Hossein Farghadani badminton instructor
It’s no secret that badminton is on the upswing at the Club and the Recreation Services team is thrilled to introduce Hossein Farghdani, our new Badminton Instructor. Hossein first dabbled in badminton when he was only 8 years old and has now been playing and coaching for 27 years. “Coaching is like meditation for me,” says Hossein. Born to be a coach, Hossein loves observing his students improve it gives him satisfaction and joy. Quite the avid adventurer, Hossein enjoys biking, working out, and hiking with his dog, Roxy. When he’s not on the trail, he also enjoys cooking, watching TV/movies, and studying sports. If you think Hossein looks familiar, you’re right! He knows the Club well and previously worked as an attendant in the Fitness Centre.
