TONY IS AMAZING!…read more Here's my story: I contacted Transformations Fitness (which I found here on Yelp) for my 10-day stay in Honolulu in February, I didn't want to get out of shape just to get back into shape when I returned to California. I signed up for Tony's semi-private sessions which seem like private sessions (his sessions are at Kaka'ako Fitness which is shared with other trainers and patrons of the fitness center). For my first session, Tony definitely took it easy on me. He took me through the stretching routine that I did at the beginning of each session. The link to routine is sent to your email with a helpful youtube clip of the stretches. Also during this first session, Tony inquired about my goals and what I wanted to work on during my training session. During my sessions that followed, Tony helped me become stronger physically and mentally throughout the short time he trained me. Tony guided me through exercises that were familiar as well as new ones. I requested that he incorporated kettle bell exercises and he followed through with that request. I enjoyed my sessions with Tony and I would definitely come back when I am back in town. You could try talking yourself out of a rep, but Tony is great at what he does and is able to coach you through your limiting beliefs and assist you through your transformation process. Thank you Tony!

This isn't the place if you're looking for AC or shiny new equipment--it's a little more rugged, sweaty, and all about getting stronger. The trainers are hands-down the best. They constantly correct your form, and somehow the tiniest adjustments make every exercise 10x harder (in the best way). I've been on a mission to grow my glutes, and I regularly leave with my butt twitching from pure muscle fatigue. If you're looking for fancy, this isn't it.

1ST IMPRESSION My very first time attending Move Camp (a…read moreTeam Move style boot camp) was for a CMYE Yelp Kicks Butt event. They hosted a large group of Yelp members and did several different workouts with us using both our body weight and exercise equipment. They made the class both challenging and fun and even provided us with light snacks afterwards and gave away a few of their anniversary t-shirts. I enjoyed this class but at the time, I wasn't really serious about staying active and getting in good physical shape. http://www.yelp.com/biz/yelp-kicks-butt-team-move-hawaii-honolulu 2ND ENCOUNTER Team Move hosts a "Thanksmoving Workout" every year on Thanksgiving morning. The workout is early enough so that you don't miss too much of the Macy's Day Parade and football! Anyway, I thought it was a brilliant idea to have a huge group workout on the morning of Thanksgiving to lessen the guilt of all of the crap that we eat on Thanksgiving. What a great way to work for your Thanksgiving meal. The Thanksmoving workout was awesome and they had drones fly above us during the workout to get some pictures of us in action. We did a bunch of cardio and strength exercises very similar to the CMYE YKB. After the class, they gave away a few pumpkin pies. LONG-TERM COMMITMENT It took me almost a year to attend another Team Move class not because Team Move's staff and programs aren't great (they really are!) but for the fact that I just wasn't committed to being active and staying in shape. So I've somewhat buckled down and am working out on a more consistent basis because I've been attending Team Move classes for about two months now and am so grateful for both the instructors and members for making it fun to workout. Team Move offers a variety of classes including Move Camp, Work FIT, Senior FIT, yoga, and personal training. I've been attending both yoga classes and Move Camp, which are outdoor group exercise classes that is similar to circuit training and boot camps. The yoga classes, instructed by yoga guru Danny, are awesome and are held at Magic Island near the ocean. The classes are held on Wednesday evenings and Saturday mornings. Danny helps us relax and gain strength, balance and flexibility. The yoga poses he goes through with us are both easy and challenging at the same time. How so? He provides easy and advanced modifications to fit everyone's level of fitness. The Wednesday evening class is a perfect way to end my workday as it helps me to decompress and at the end of class, we catch the beautiful sunset from the beach park. Move Camp, usually instructed by Damon (Owner of Team Move), offers a wide variety of exercises for all fitness levels. Classes are held at Ala Moana Beach Park on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Exercises are done using our body weight and also a ton of different exercise equipment. Some of the equipment we use are resistance bands, weights, battle ropes, sand bells, medicine balls, etc. We also use "The Wall" which is the stone wall that lines the sidewalk of our workout area. The wall provides us with a lot of great ways to work out different areas of our body. Like I mentioned-the exercises are for all fitness levels and Damon always offers modifications (both easy and advanced) to cater to everyone's fitness levels and injuries, if any. I'm not a fan of working out at the gym because I get bored easily being indoors and my workouts feel redundant there. Move Camp is perfect for me and what I love most about it is the variety of exercises that the classes offer. No two workouts have ever been the same and this is great not just for my sanity and to keep things interesting but for physical health and toning alone. I definitely recommend taking Team Move classes to anyone and everyone for a number of reasons: Classes and services are priced reasonably compared to many other personal trainers and fitness programs, the instructors are talented and really great at what they do, the members are awesome and a pleasure to workout with and hey-you're not living if you're not moving. If you attend a class, you'll be lapping everyone on the couch!

The Coach could see I needed some help so she scheduled some sessions with me to coach me basic barbell movements.

Great gym and group fitness culture, they will push you in a good way that doesn't intimidate you. Really nice equipment as well and I'm grateful they have everyone wipe everything down in between sets, very clean! If it's your first experience in a group fitness class, do not be afraid to ask questions and get to understand the machines! Music is fun but sometimes tricky to hear the coaches well enough to understand exactly what to do especially if it's your first time. BUT if that's the case, just smile and work hard -- even if it's not exactly what they say to do you'll still get a great workout in :) TIPS & TRICKS: * They do offer cheaper validated parking but if you're willing to get a walking warm up in before your class, just park at the Kakaako Waterfront Park! * Tons of awesome spots around SALT too, so get some post workout snacks after. * Ask about different membership opportunities, they have a lot of options might fit your lifestyle better (monthly passes, special week passes, or punch passes) * Last but not least, HAVE FUN AND GET YOUR SWEAT ON!

I had been slacking on doing cardiovascular exercise, so these cycling classes were a welcome wake up call that I need to get back on the proverbial horse (bike?) with my exercise routine. I like that the studio provides you with cycling shoes, towels to dry off, towels to cool down, lockers to stash your belongings, and a pretty nice restroom. It's conveniently located in the Ala Moana mall, so I can quickly hit up other businesses in the area.
