You can start off with one on one training and after a few months of getting in shape, I recommend connecting with the small groups in the daily scheduled boot camps! I have referred about 20 people to Team Fitness and many of them have stuck with it and are in great shape now. They also have a nutritionist that tailors a 90 day meal plan for you. She asked me what I already like to eat and I let them know that I have no time to prepare food. The plan was so easy to follow and included things like boiled eggs and an apple for breakfast, 15 almonds for a snack before lunch and the essential cheat meal I looked forward to once a week. Ask for managers Chris or Wesley for more info.

Wow! Yanti from Zen Yoga Massage gives an amazing massage! She is caring, nurturing, and…read moreprofessional from start to end. From the moment I arrived in her tranquil and serene space I felt comfortable and cared for. When I arrived I had pain in my neck and shoulders from many days hunched over my computer. My wrists and arms also ached. Yanti applied careful, precise Acupressure point work, combined with deep tissue massage and Cranial Sacral Therapy to gently align my neck and spine. Every area of tension was alleviated by the end of this heavenly massage! Another point I appreciated was Yanti's educational approach. She is very knowledgeable and committed to guiding me through pain management therapy. I am doing the stretches she advised daily, to release tension and pain in my body, making my work day more pain free and productive. I would recommend Yanti to anyone seeking pain management therapy, or who really needs effective good relaxation massage.

I signed up for the 7AM Wednesday Rocket class, and was pleasantly greeted by Boyd, the studio's owner who checked me in and offered me a free mat. The studio is spacious and beautiful. Big front room, and a second practice room in the back. Loved practicing with the Rocket teacher, Risto, who has his own unique style and offered some hands-on adjustments. Started the class with quad & hip flexor stretches (YES!), and I really appreciated experiencing a different approach to the Rocket practice. Definitely coming back again on Friday. And special thanks to Risto who gave me a complimentary Rocket tank top after class. :-) Grateful to find this studio and highly recommend!

Their space is pretty big and very clean. You have to bring your own yoga mats and be prepared for some accidents by the puppies which is fine... because they are puppies! All the puppies who joined us for yoga were about 5weeks old and were all adopted. Our instructor was super nice and very understanding when we were not able to focus on our yoga poses because we were too busy obsessing over the puppies. It was a great endorphin rush we got on a Saturday morning :) They don't always have the same puppies so I can't wait to return here the next time I'm feeling down and need some furry love!
