I have been training with Katja at PeakFit Studio for a little over a month now, and I couldn't be…read morehappier. For years, my doctor stressed the importance of strength training, and I always found an excuse to put it off. I'm so incredibly grateful that I finally took the leap--and especially that I did it with Katja's urging and guidance. She is an absolutely incredible trainer. She's not just knowledgeable and safety-focused; she is genuinely energetic and inspiring, and she actually makes the process fun. Katja has a knack for knowing exactly how far to push me, helping me achieve things I honestly didn't think my body was capable of. In just over 1 month, I already feel much stronger and more in tune with my body overall. I wish I had done this years ago! I highly recommend Katja, and I just found out she's taking on a few more clients, so if you've been waiting to start, now is the time! Huge thanks to Katja and the entire PeakFit staff for creating such a welcoming and motivating environment.

Water, bathroom, snacks - They have one of the top down, filtered water fountains, great for filling up your water bottle without a lot of mess. The bathrooms are clean. I really appreciate the amount of stuff they have to purchase. Might get me one of those cookies in the way out. Full star Blackboard, staff, location - This will be relabeled, first impression on the next gym. However, the entrance is very welcoming and the inspirational board does a great job setting the tone. I like the corner aspect of the gym, allows for more space in the back. It was at night so no staff was present. Full star Cleanliness, organization - Everything seems very clean and well taken care of with decent organization around the gym layout. I'm not sure if I've seen a poorly organized gym, this might be another factor that will change. Plenty of wipes to take care of the equipment after you're done. Full star Cardio, weights - The cardio machines are all in good shape, there are plenty of machines when it gets crowded. There are not too many weight machines, but they have the important ones, and plenty of free weights. There is also a studio in the back great for classes and individual training. Full star TV, music, "extras" - This might be the toughest category to evaluate. All of the tv work, they are not overpowering, but bring your headphones if you want music because there isn't any playing. They do have the cardio trackers which I'm hoping to find out more information at a later date. Full star. Great little gym just south of Asheville, love the community and how well taken care of it is.

They have a schedule for adults that shows all the classes they'll have Monday through Saturday. They also have classes for kids and overall it's a great place to learn. I only give 4 out of 5 because it's my first gym and while it was great, I have nothing to compare it to. I definitely recommend.
