If you're like 95% of the population and put on the COVID 19+ and want to get ready for bikini season, or you're feeling uneasy about going back to a commercial gym, you need some accountability to get back on track, or you just don't even know where to start, you need to have a chat with Lauren. Lauren is passionate about helping her clients look and feel their best self. Since we've been training together, I've definitely been feeling my best.

I must have driven by BodyBurn about a billion times before finally giving it a try. I remember…read moreseeing that it was a personal training gym for a while and then suddenly it looked like a club from the outside. A friend of mine became a fan and convinced me to give it a try too. One class and I was hooked! The BodyBurn 1.0 class utilizes motorless cardio machines and strength sets to get you sweaty and basically just want to lay down and die at the end of the class. The cardio machines range from your basic bike and row machine to the coolest climbing wall and ski erg. If you are a new to fitness and this sounds daunting, don't worry. You don't have to be an Olympic athlete to be able to do this stuff. If you are super fit and want a challenge, you can get that here too. There are ways to tailor it to make it a great workout for whatever level you your fitness level. And the best part? The instructors don't make you feel like a big ol' baby when you get nervous on the climbing wall and decide to take it to climb up it rather than run up it like the dude (my husband) that was on it before you. As a matter of fact, they are just encouraging (and not in that really annoying way that some group fitness instructors can be). There is also a BodyBurn 2.0 class that focuses less on cardio and more on strength using weights and TRX. I haven't had a chance to take those classes but it is on my To Do list. In addition to a good class they seem to be interested in building a whole community. They are active on Instagram, have unique sections on their app and seem to remember every client's name. The *only* critique I have of this studio is the price/class packages. Drop-in classes are $30 (first class is $15) and they have some X number of class packages and monthly memberships. If you want to go several times a week, you are looking at almost $300/month. I don't know why, but once you get over the $225 range for monthly membership, I can't justify it in the budget. This critique isn't enough for me to give it 4 stars though. I'm sticking with the 5! Note: I've never had any pressure to sign up for a membership. I've taken 2 other people with me and they haven't had any either. (FINALLY a place that gets it!) Go. Sweat. Enjoy!

RunRx gave me back a healthy, pain-free shoulder, and importantly, my workouts!…read more I had a severe shoulder (Rotator Cuff) injury that prevented me from exercising regularly (I could not reach up into a kitchen cabinet). After several months of pain, unsuccessful PT with a well-known hospital franchise (less than 20-25min of attention per session), followed by a doctor prescribed ultrasound-guided injection, I thankfully found RunRx. Within 8-10 weeks of my initial assessment with RunRx, and following their (Dr. Mullins) prescribed strength-based exercises, I'm back to pain-free, full-range of motion work-outs, including swimming! In addition, my exercise form is better, enabling lower risk of injury and improved efficiency (e.g. my dead-lifts are stronger!). For competitive athletes (High School, College, or Professional) or someone who simply takes their workouts seriously, I can't recommend RunRx enough. Thank you RunRx!

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Gabby Goshtigian and The RunRX. Every time I leave her…read morepractice I feel like a million bucks. If I could give her more Stars I would. I came to her in July 2022 at my wits end with a mysterious foot injury. This issue had been nagging me and progressively getting worse and worse since 2019. I had sought out professional advice in the past from running experts, chiropractors and other active recovery resources but no one had the solution for me. Even with my own remedies of RICE, rolling/stretching, dietary changes, massages, and medications the injury persisted. It had gotten to a point where I couldn't even run without 7/10 pain or more. If you are a hobby runner you can imagine how devastating and deeply frustrating this feeling can be. She assessed the damage right away and gave me professional no nonsense advice. She preformed an assessment of my injury and we did a gait analysis together. She set me up with modern exercises/tools and a plan for physical therapy sessions. Most importantly she encouraged me to make an appointment with her top choice podiatrist so we could quickly and accurately resolve my issue. These were all steps I would not have taken without the accountability and her guiding hand. Gabby took my injury extremely seriously and I followed her lead. She has the ability at her practice to incorporate strength and physical therapy in 50 minute one on one sessions that are uniquely different from traditional PT offices. She is able to offer the proper customized attention that an athlete needs to literally get them back on their feet as smooth and quickly as possible. It's been about 8 weeks of healing at this point and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. A feeling I haven't had for years. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Goshtigian and her team to anyone looking to improve their form, recover from an injury, become a stronger athlete or even prevent injury as she now offers strength classes on Saturdays. Not only is Dr. Gabby healing my injury, she's making me a stronger runner at the same time. I'm on the path to recovery and a safer, stronger, faster future. Did I mention she's an athlete herself, a small business owner and a generally very cool and compassionate person. If you're injured waste no time and go see her and her dedicated team at TheRunRX.

Sasha is a great personal trainer, and i think she's been a good match for a few reasons: firstly,…read moreshe is not just attentive but genuinely interested in your personal health in terms of learning about you and tailoring a program to help. I have an underlying medical condition, so Sasha has had to learn about it and be careful in the program she's put together and evolved. Secondly, she does push you to achieve more than maybe you thought possible. I jokingly refer to it as "Sasha's next torture" but really that just my fun way to acknowledge the growth. In terms of results, i think i've surprised myself and maybe on one or two occasions surprised Sasha!

Sasha is the best! Deciding to work with her is hands down the best decision I've made in years and…read morehas had the biggest impact on my health since I started paying attention to what I eat. She made me feel comfortable right away from the initial consultation and even as early as our first sessions and eval did such a great job of finding my strengths that it gave me a huge boost of confidence and motivation to keep with it. She does such a great job meeting you where you're at, working around any injuries or limitations, and helping build up your fitness routines from wherever they are (or aren't). She's always paying better attention to my body than I ever have, and in turn, is helping me build up that awareness myself. She's always customizing my sessions to push me further based on what I need to improve on, what I like doing and what I can do. She consistently checks in on where I'm sore or how I'm feeling to make tweaks as needed and is just great to talk to about any other health goals. In just a couple of months, I've already gone from "I should really work out...at all" to already wanting to double the time I'm putting in because of much better it's making me feel. She seriously knows her stuff and is a treasure trove of knowledge and techniques around getting to better understand my body, its strengths and weaknesses, and learning how to build those up together. She somehow makes it fun and I'm usually looking forward to our sessions (and even on the days I'm not, I'm so happy I did it after), and let's face it that's one of the best parts of a trainer coming to you. Whether I show up 100% ready to go or not, Sasha always does and that's something I've never had working out at home or going to a gym. That initial catalyst of momentum to get going and exercise is worth the cost alone--and her knowledge and expertise make it even better when we need to make adjustments to account for my energy, injuries, or goals that session. I'm always impressed with her creativity too! If you buy any fitness equipment she'll help you use it correctly but no matter what you have around you in your home, she'll find ways to use whatever's around in a way that makes me feel silly for ever thinking that gym access or not having a piece of equipment at home was ever a real barrier to me working out. I was hesitant about the investment in a personal trainer at first, but it's exactly what I needed, and my only regrets are not finding her years ago and not having our sessions twice as often! If you're on the fence, meet with her and start with a couple of sessions--I guarantee you'll wish you started with more.
