Working with Wayne at Morph Fitness is the single best decision I've made for my health. His holistic, customized approach fits a busy life -- as a working mom and surgeon I didn't think I had time to eat well or exercise, but Wayne helped me prioritize my health. I now have far more energy and feel stronger, which makes me a better mom and surgeon. Wayne's knowledge and passion exceed expectations. He understands the mechanics of every muscle and designs intentional programs tailored to your goals. He immediately identified my poor posture from years in the OR and systematically strengthened the right muscles while using targeted stretching and bodywork to relieve chronic tension. A former physical therapist, he blends corrective work with performance training. Wayne is tough but fair -- he corrects form until it's flawless and gives simple, actionable changes that become lasting habits. His nutrition guidance isn't a fad: it kept me full and energized, addressed chronic dehydration (I now drink at least half my body weight in ounces of water), and eliminated the need for sugary snacks. I increased my daily steps and added targeted supplements. In four months I've lost 10 lbs, dropped under 20% body fat, gained significant muscle, and am down a clothing size. Most importantly, my chronic back pain has resolved, my posture is much improved, and I feel the healthiest and happiest I've ever been.

I've worked with Nico across multiple sessions and this last one was by far the most challenging --…read moreillness, an injury, and a job loss all hit at once. Despite everything, Nico kept me grounded, positive, and focused. Workouts, macros, water, protein, protein, PROTEIN! He has a way of keeping you in the game even when life is throwing everything at you. This session had a tighter timeline -- I was prepping for a very special family event -- so the approach was more of a sprint compared to the gradual builds we've done in past sessions. Different, but it worked. And the real test? Traveling right before the event -- no gym, couldn't track macros, water intake was a mess -- and I still felt AMAZING. I showed up feeling like the best version of myself. That is 100% because of Nico. He is more than a trainer. He's a coach, a cheerleader, and an inspiration. The tools and mindset he's given me go beyond any single goal because at the end of the day, this is a lifestyle. If you're looking for someone who will truly invest in YOU -- not just your workouts -- Nico is your person.

I was lucky enough to win a raffle prize and work with him for 12 weeks. The progress I made and the support I received was more than I had made on my own and working with other trainers. He's available when I need to ask questions, and has never made me feel bad about myself if I've fallen "off track." If anything, he's taught me life is meant to be lived and food is a wonderful thing when used properly. My mindset around the scale has completely changed. I am looking forward to working with Nico this next year and seeing how far I will come

This studio looked great and was well-reviewed, so I became a longtime client and even prepaid for a package of classes. One day the studio was very cold -- Parkinson's makes it hard for me to regulate my body temperature -- so I closed the door. I was the only client working out at the time. Moments later, a man violently slammed the door back open in my face. No explanation, no apology. I later learned he was the owner. We adore our trainer, who went above and beyond to help, even arranging a meeting with the owner to address what happened. Instead of apologizing, the owner insisted I had violated the rules. All it would have taken was, "We keep the door open here -- please leave it, and let us know if you're cold." Instead, he doubled down. I trusted this studio with my health and my money.

I have a movement background, along with chronic pain and past injuries, and have worked with trainers who pushed past my limits without listening. Adriana is the complete opposite. She's incredibly knowledgeable, thoughtful, and continuously refining her craft. Her approach is grounded in neuroscience and nervous system awareness, which makes a huge difference in how my body responds and progresses. The first few sessions were about truly understanding where I was at, and since then, we've been building in a way that feels both safe and empowering. Each session is tailored and unique.

Sofia has been able to do this for me and address the problems that arise from sitting for long periods of time and other quirks. She knows everything the human body and the biomechanics of movement and applies a method called Z-health to quickly improve the pains and aches of my lack of activity. For example, once I had an entrapment of the radial nerve which was causing pain and tingling in my right arm. Through a series of exercises and movements she was able to reduce this and eventually went away. As for training, she avoids using machines and is very creative in how she develops sets of exercises to engage the core and work out all muscles more than I would otherwise I would do on my own, really pushing you to do your best. All this with a gentle character and attitude. She is also a very well-rounded trainer as she not only tackles inactive people like me, but also see her working with active young people with goals to get stronger and fitter, and even athletes. I only have good things to say about her wholeheartedly recommend her as a personal fitness trainer.

I am a 57 years old woman and I feel like I am 30 thanks to Sofia and her encouragement and great training. Last year, I was diagnosed with hypercalcemia and hyperparathyroidism. Moving and exercising was very painful and my joints would swell. After exercising, I would be sore for the next week after just a mild workout. Sofia kept encouraging me to stay strong and she was always tailoring my training sessions accordingly to avoid injuries or further damage to my joints. Nowadays, I am definitively getting stronger and getting back to my strength level of 15 years ago. Sofia uses a variety of techniques like strength, mobility and core training, but what makes her standout is her knowledge of Applied Neurology. She uses brain debugging techniques because she is a Z-Health brain based certified practitioner. Sofia knows how to hack my brain so that my body can work in harmony with it and to get the most and the most efficiency out of each of our training sessions. Sofia is also a great motivator. if you want to get stronger and healthier, give Sofia a call. I highly recommend Sofia for any kind of athlete regardless of age or fitness goals.

The main con is that you have to turn back since there's no loop (about 6 miles one-way), so you have to figure out where your stopping point is, otherwise the trail spans across multiple cities (north entrance in Millbrae, southern entrance in San Mateo). No pets allowed. There are restrooms at the beginning of the trail, and in the middle after going a good amount of distance. There were a lot of wildlife to be seen, like random families of deer, lizards, turkey couples, and even turkey vultures. In some puddles along the path, there were newly-hatched tadpoles. If you want a peaceful, quiet, long and shaded walk or bike ride, this is a solid choice. You will run into other groups along the way, as it is a popular and well-maintained trail. Sawyer Camp Trail's purpose is pretty niche, though, as I'd much prefer a path that loops or an option for elevated terrain.

Finally open again. 1.5 miles is better than zero.

The pool operates as both short (25 yards) and long course (50 meters) depending on the day and time.

I've dropped into lap swim ($9) but I started to opt in for their 10 day pass which is $85 ($5 savings). I also just learned there is a monthly unlimited pass for $75 which is a great deal if you do plan to come in more than 10x a month. Check out their website for hours and if there will be less lanes due to classes. I love going during the day since you'll get a nice tan afterwards!

For that reason, they generally hated summer camps. They hated CuriOdyssey, Marine Science Institute, Galileo, Steve & Kate's, you-name-it. Feelosopher's Path's stated goal for camp was to encourage kids to become more adventurous and independent -- at a gentle pace. I figured it was worth a try. Well, this was the first summer camp where I did not have to drag them there every morning. On the first day, as usual, my daughters hung behind me during check-in and stared worriedly around. Erin immediately got down to their eye-level and started chatting. By the time I finished checking in, both girls were relaxed and conversing and I saw them join the other kids before I left. Every morning, they were eager to put on their new wristwatches (part of the camp equipment list) and go on another exploration. And my non-outdoorsy, non-hiking girls hiked to the Angel Island campsite carrying all of their own gear and came back dirty and joyous. After the camp ended, both girls were adamant that they wanted to return. By June of 2015, they were asking on a weekly basis if Feelosopher's Camp was the next week! They were so excited. They had just as much fun at FC Adventure Summer Camp 2015. Feelosopher's Path is a great organization. It truly feels to be that Erin and Hiro create community. This isn't just about keeping the kids busy for the summer with activities. They are taught to be part of a larger world and to become more independent and more caring. The school year programs don't work with our schedule but they sound awesome. We will be back for the summer camp and someday we hope our kids will feel independent enough to say they want to go to Japan for the sister summer camp. That would be a milestone. I will finally add that having Hiro and kids come from Japan to run/attend the summer camp is wonderful. It shows the kids that there is a whole world to explore.
