But a friend told me about The Edge and everything about the process from the initial contact, to the first evaluation appointment to the series of sessions with the incredible Ashley as my trainer was easy to access and professionally done. My trainer ( who has a doctorate ) understood the issue almost immediately and we were on the same page from the first moments onward. A series of stretching and strengthening exercises, along with some occasional physical therapy performed on-site by my trainer got me through the most painful injury ever and back on the golf course. I can't say enough about how good my experience has been here, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for workouts, classes, personal training, sports psychology and advice in a top level organization.

I grew up in Highland Park but have not lived there for over 20 years. I was back in the area…read morevisiting when my father passed away suddenly. Pretty soon after, I knew I was going to need to do something for my mental and physical health, so I Googled "Pilates studio Highland Park," came across Body Evolve, and booked a 10-pack. I have a dance background and have been studying Pilates on the West coast for about 15 years. I've worked with Master Instructors Lara Hudson and David Woods and have fairly high expectations when it comes to a Pilates studio experience. Body Evolve exceeded all of my expectations. Their in-person reformer classes are a max capacity of 4. This allows the instructors to be very hands-on, and give personal corrections and guidance throughout the class. The studio is HUGE compared to what I'm used to in San Francisco, and it's on the second level of the building surrounded by windows with beautiful natural light shining in, especially in the morning. So, so peaceful, even when the class is tough! My first class happened to be on Yom Kippur. The other 3 students had cancelled as a result. Much to my surprise, Body Evolve and instructor Kathy kept the class on the books and gave me a private lesson for an hour! Because it was a 1:1, Kathy and I got to talking and I shared my circumstances around my visit. She was so kind and compassionate and I left there feeling whole. I've since taken classes with Jenay, Sarah, and Arlene and all of them are fabulous instructors. To me, the amazing instructors are the ones who work seamless transitions into the movements. Yes, you have to change your springs or walk to the other side of the reformer every once in a while, but if the transitions between movements are smooth and keep you working, you know the instructors know what they are doing. This is the case always at Body Evolve. The other ladies in the classes are very friendly too, everyone introduced themselves to me as the newbie in class (it seems like everyone knows each other at this studio, which is awesome!). If you live in the North Shore, or are simply visiting like me, take a few classes here. You are bound to be in for a great experience and an amazing workout too.

CFI has challenged me both mentally and physically and has made me realize that I can push myself a lot further then I was doing alone at the gym. Carlos has been an amazing coach, and has helped me focus on my form, helping me increase both strength and flexibility. He has done everything from creating personalized weekly workouts to posting one of a kind videos that all help me achieve my personal goals/results. The CFI community has also been an extremely positive and unique experience. Everyone is welcoming, defying the stereotype cult crossfit scene. All members support each other constantly, and push one another to achieve personal fitness goals. I have been working out for many years and have never felt so challenged and comfortable in a gym atmosphere. I am so happy that I found my niche at this gym, and although I have realized that I am not in as good of shape as I thought I was, I look forward to every work out, for I know I will be challenged and supported. Thank you Carlos for creating this positive and supportive atmosphere, I am no longer stuck and will continue to push myself and support those around me.

I took both of my boys and they love it. The weekly sessions have already helped them gain strength and endurance, and this cross-training has helped them in their other sports of swimming and basketball. My swimmer has gained upper body strength in short amount of time and this has helped him in his butterfly stroke and my baller has picked up the endurance he needs to play basketball for the full-hour without getting tired. This is a fantastic gym, everyone who comes in is super friendly, and Marco is super trainer! I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to learn boxing, anyone who is looking to cross-train with their main sports, anyone is just looking for a great, intense workout and anyone who is also looking to gain discipline through a martial arts. While most people don't think of boxing as a martial art, it is a unique sport that has one of the best all around body work-outs and Marco is the best to get the best out of anyone who comes through the doors of his gym. Highly recommend this to anyone and twice on Sunday.
