My original intention was to train with him for a couple months to counteract my gluttonous eating habits, learn his secrets and dump him. Unfortunately, he has me hooked. But the ongoing mental and physical health benefits trump the hit on my wallet, so I'm at peace with it. Matt's dedication to customizing each session to best challenge and motivate is starkly absent from other fitness classes, trainers and gyms. Each time is refreshing and somehow painfully fun. He applies an arsenal of methods including spin kicks, cross-uppercut combos and kettle bells, while also deconstructing intimidating machines to their most effective applications for me. All of this tones the trickiest of areas while building balance, flexibility, lean muscle mass as well as self defense skills. He's also dangerously knowledgeable and eager to provide valuable expertise around everything else related to living a healthy lifestyle. If only I listened.

By the end of 2025, I was at my heaviest (138 lbs and 30.8% body fat) due to stress and a difficult…read morefertility journey. I was discouraged and none of my clothes fit. Coach Drew at Transformation Fitness changed my life. I saw amazing results in just 6 weeks, finished his 12-week challenge feeling significantly stronger, and recently signed on to continue training here this year. I am now 122 lbs and 26% body fat! My ultimate flex was fitting back into an engagement skirt on New Years Eve that I haven't worn since 2021! Why this gym is different: - The Workouts: Classes are 1 hour, energizing, and incredibly easy to follow. You can go at your own pace and strength level without feeling pressured. - The Nutrition Plan: 80% of losing weight is what you eat, not just working out. Drew provides you with a plan and I kept reminding myself his mantra "if it's not on the list it doesn't exist." I got through the weeks buying only food on his list and even when I attended holiday parties I told friends and family, "sorry, if it's not on the list it doesn't exist." - The Atmosphere: Zero judgment. The music is great, the energy is high, and the people are genuinely friendly. I've met a few girlfriends in the short time I was there. - The Logistics: This was great for an educator like me. I showered immediately after my 6 AM workout and headed straight to work. Transformation Fitness even provides all the shower basics (soap, shampoo, towel), so you don't have to. Overall, you need discipline to reach your goals, but Drew's accountability made the impossible feel easy. If you want a supportive environment that actually delivers results, this is it.

If you're looking for a team of fitness and wellness professionals who are concerned about your well being, supportive of your fitness goals and challenge you to be better than you could EVER imagine, you've found the right place. I've been training with John Hall for almost a year and I am truly surprised at the results. I came in completely out of shape and overwhelmed with getting into shape. John not only listened to me and my concerns but made (and continues to make) workable plans to help me become comfortable with working out and living healthier. I've yet to do the same workout twice! The atmosphere is like no other and EVERYONE from the trainers to the other members are supportive, fun and genuinely concerned about one another. If you're serious about taking the first step and committed to doing the work, John Hall Studios is the place for you. You will not be disappointed!

I was looking for a personalized holistic training approach including physical workouts and…read morenutritional guidance. Tommaso setup a 12 week program for me around these needs and I was very happy with the process and results and I then signed up for a second 12 week engagement (currently happening at the time of this review). Everything is virtual which allows a lot of freedom and the ability to maintain our workout schedule when I'm traveling by bringing a minimal amount of gear. I was initially skeptical of a virtual approach but after speaking with his prior clients and experiencing it for myself it has proved great - don't let this hold you back. Workouts are tailored to my level and abilities and address aches and pains when they arise. The nutritional coaching has been key for me as we review my weekly eating habits and tweak things slowly over time to eliminate unhealthy cravings with healthy substitutions and mental awareness of eating decisions. I wanted a realistic all around approach to maintain a healthy lifestyle. I have done my share of extreme diets and workout regimens which work for a while but aren't sustainable. Tommaso is focused on realistic long term strategies that will work long into the future and that is what I'm getting. I highly recommend working with Tommaso to tailor a program for you and achieve your specific goals.

He is excellent at designing workouts and he has so much positive energy that it rubs off on you. I have always been active, but losing my job, then being on lockdown with a toddler threw me off my game. The gyms were closed, the weather was nasty, and I just couldn't motivate myself to do workouts at home. I gained weight and felt sluggish. I was not myself. That's when I found Tommaso and helped me turn things around. At first, I was not excited about the concept of a virtual trainer. I didn't think it would be much better than a workout video. Boy was I wrong! I signed up for the assessment and decided to have an open mind. After that first session I was really encouraged. I was amazed at how well Tommaso could identify what was going on with my body all through my iPad screen. For example, he could tell that my right side was weaker and knew that I had an old injury on that side without me telling him. He also radiated positivity and talked about mind and body, not just about training or losing weight. I took the plunge and signed up to work with him for 3 months minimum. Now 5 months later, I'm so happy I made that decision. He has helped me transform my body and feel good again. If you're thinking about working with him, just do it! You won't be sorry.
