There are SO many choices out there when it comes to group fitness training now. When we first started in 2007, it wasn’t that way. Frankly, we opened our doors because there were so few places to get quality group training. I love seeing how much the fitness landscape has grown and changed since those days. CrossFit, F45, Burn Bootcamp, …
It’s been a few months (or years). You felt better when you woke up in the morning. You weren’t exhausted by mid-afternoon. Not only did you have a few less aches and pains, you felt strong, capable, confident. Maybe you were just more active then. Before you were investing more and more time into your career, or starting a family …
Our coaches still have room in their schedules for Personal Training – but it’s limited. We want to help as many people as we can, and for some there’s no better option than individualized, one-on-one coaching.

When asked about the most significant benefits to personal training, there’s a few things we hear over and over. Confidence. Empowerment. Prioritizing …
The start of a new year often brings a surge of motivation to kickstart healthier habits, with fitness resolutions topping many lists. With that, there is a heaping dose of cynicism around the whole idea of a New Year’s resolution. How many people set lofty goals, only to have those fade out in a few weeks or months? Our goal is …
Change is hard. We’ve all tried to make a change in our lives (that we knew would be for the best) and struggled. You need to have a plan! One option – use a “commitment device”. Commitment devices set us up for long-term success by helping us leverage preparation: using our bodies and brains in the way they’ve evolved to be used. We’re …
