Great place to go. Very friendly staff. I play tennis here and take pickleball lessons from Judy who is an excellent teacher and makes the classes very fun.

Rick

Grateful to have a gym that takes the health of the staff and members seriously. The owner works out alongside with you. This is no run-of-the-mill “investment “ for some distant owner. These guys care.

I’ve lost over 90 lbs. and am off my high blood pressure medication. I’m down five pant sizes and can easily shop in the “regular” department now. I feel better than I have in years and have a level of confidence I don’t ever recall having. This translates into every aspect of my life.

The gym has given me a place that I could be my self meet new people and grab my goals with like minded people like me.

The gym gave me the confidence I needed to get started, I was encouraged by every trainer that I worked with and have met some amazing people that have kept me going when I was struggling to lose weight.

Having the summer off was a great way for me to focus on exercise and diet! Within the month of July taking classes with David Cruz, joining the Elevate Run Club, and Mace [The Art of Steel] I was able to make amazing changes!
