Not at all. We work with people at all fitness levels — from complete beginners to former competitive athletes. Your free intro is specifically designed to understand where you are and where you want to go, so we can match you to the right program and build from there.
Small Group Personal Training (up to 5 people) offers the most individualized attention — your programming is tailored specifically to you. Strength & Conditioning Classes (up to 9 people) follow a group program that builds strength and conditioning in a high-energy, community setting. Both are coached every session.
We're open Monday–Thursday 6AM–6PM and Friday 6AM–5PM. Saturday and Sunday we're closed. Sessions are scheduled in advance so your spot is always reserved.
