I love that the workouts are constantly changing, and that I always feel challenged but can also adapt exercises if I have pain or injury from which I am recovering. I love that I can feel myself getting stronger every week, and that my once chronic back pain has diminished for me so much that I rarely experience it! I love that it’s one of my favorite hours of the day that I can focus on myself and set everything aside when work and life is stressful. It has become a sanctuary for me – body, soul, mind, and spirit. I love that when I’m working out now I hear this new voice inside me whisper, “you can do this.” I love the proud feeling as I’m walking out the door that I *did* do it, and that feels great.

My original goals were cliché and very much like everyone else’s, lose fat, gain muscle, and feel better. While those results have been achieved, it is the unanticipated results that have far exceeded my expectations. The relationships that have formed with the coaches, staff, and other members have been the greatest reward. Almost all testimonials have stated that Gymnazo is more than a gym, it’s a family, and I echo that sentiment to anyone who asks. I’ve now been consistently coming for a year and a half! It’s so much easier to go to Gymnazo and keep going when you know that it is owned, run and attended by good people who care.

I don’t want to frame my days by the physical limitations . I used to have little everyday things I could not do without serious effort or aches before I started Gymnazo. Now my goal now is to keep training, so I don’t lose what I’ve gained, and I’ve been consistent for the last few years. I love the sense of fun in every Gymnazo workout. It’s a celebration of what my body can do.

I came to Gymnazo to lose weight and regain flexibility and balance. My adult boys were backpacking and doing other activities that I wasn’t comfortable doing any more. It reminded me of the importance of enjoying physical activities while we can and not becoming “old” before your time because of inactivity. I have three small grandkids now and I want to be able to play with them as they grow up. I started by going to the semi-private classes. I have a lot more energy, strength and stamina. I have lost 29 pounds and my waist is shrinking. I have been hiking with my boys and playing on the floor with the grandkids.

As a former athlete, I was looking for something tailored to me, my body, and my goals. My goal was to be stronger, more flexible, and to increase my endurance so I could surf more. Prior to Gymnazo, I hadn’t been surfing for a few years due to injury. After a short time in small group classes I started to get back out in the water again. Once I started semi-private sessions, my level of performance rapidly increased to a level that I hadn’t seen in 10 years.

My goal is to be more active throughout the week and learn how to safely exercise. At Gymnazo the trainers are very approachable and knowledgeable. Group classes are a fun way to work out. From working out in small group I have increased flexibility and energy! I’ve also met new friends.”

I cannot believe how flexible I still am nor how strong I have become. I am 67 this year and feel physically and mentally healthy. Life, at my age, is about movement. Nothing comes easy or fast. I’ve been working out here for four years! To think about gaining physical strength and flexibility as I am aging is wonderful.

Everybody who works at Gymnazo is so nice and try to get to know every athlete on a personal level. Everybody is really professional and give their all to the athletes. I don’t feel we are following a “recipe”. Even though a group is doing the same exercises, things can be tweak up or down to every single athlete. This is very important to me because I feel that everybody is different, we all have different weaknesses, strengths or/and limitations. The coaches are always pushing the athletes to reach their full potential at all times. And of course, the system WORKS

I joined Gymnazo three years ago to gain strength and build speed for soccer. I cared about injury prevention, specifically for my ACL, as those tears are common for female athletes. I have noticed many improvement thanks to Gymnazo. My strength and agility have increased exponentially. I also am someone that suffers from tightness especially in my hips and lower back and I have noticed the muscles start to loosen up and my mobility and stability has drastically improved. One of the unique things about Gymnazo is their workouts and movement aren’t targeted just to improve speed and strength but to work certain muscles that are often overlooked and very vital to proper movement. Because of these targeted exercises my movement has become much more efficient and effective!

My goals are to maintain and improve my weight by moving my body in a way that is fun. I also want to maintain my heart health and flexibility as I get older. Gymnazo helps me achieve these! It’s convenience, workouts are always changing and fun and it keeps me from getting bored. I just show up and know I’ll have a fun workout already designed and ready for me. I have consistently been coming to Gymnazo for many years because it is the right fit for me. I don’t even think about not coming each week. It is just what I do.
