I don't know how much it costs to rent, so I can't speak to value specifically, but it is a gem! *Wood floors (designed for a dance studio), but can easily fit 30+ chairs in a large circle (they have the chairs there). *Heat/AC *A sound system (though I've never used it). *A gorgeously remodeled kitchen that is great for groups to sit in and eat (2 big tables each could fit 6-8 people I'd guess), plus a table and chairs on the deck. You could also cook in there. Lots of counter space and a huge refrigerator & freezer. *Two, count them TWO bathrooms available. *A separate room in the entry area with couches and a big desk perfect for a registration table. *A beautiful pond out front with benches. *Near coffee and restaurants & hotels aren't too far. *Small room in the back with a bed if the facilitator needs to rest between sessions! The parking lot is small, but there is more parking on the street. The owners are really nice to work with and very attentive. It's the best workshop space I've seen in the north bay of its size/style.

I hate being out-of-breath and would never…read moreadd "sweating through my clothes" to my list of ... well, I'd add it to my list of things that are uncomfortable, and bordering on embarrassing. I also don't really like team things. And I don't have much good to say about over-enthusiastic people and their over-the-top motivational slogans, trying to fool everyone into "getting excited" about something crappy. Like working out. That being said, I love Kaia F.I.T. Love it. I was super unsure at first, but after even just the orientation, I knew it was going to be awesome. And horrible, because I really do still hate working out, and you do a lot of that, there. But I knew it was different than any other place I'd been to, so I was hopeful. I was worried about being the oldest girl in there (41). I was worried about being the person in the worst shape. About being the only one not able to complete the exercises. I was worried about passing out or throwing up or peeing my pants (six kids). But it turns out, it doesn't matter if I'm the oldest, or if I'm in the worst shape of the bunch. It doesn't matter if I am the Rock Star of Kaia, or a sweaty, vomit-covered pile of flesh laying in her own urine (too far?) - the girls there are awesome. And the part about not liking being a part of a team? I take that back. Just this one time. The other girls are so encouraging. And never make me feel like an idiot. Everyone cheers each other on, and that really does get you through that last little bit, when you think you can't hold that plank for even one more second. At orientation, Megan (I'll get to her in a bit!) said, "Don't worry if you're sweating or if your shirt rides up and your belly is hanging out. Nobody here is even going to notice, because we're all just focused on doing our best." Or something like that. I don't know, but the part about not worrying if your belly hangs out? That part I remembered, because let's be real: It's a legitimate concern. But to know that you can show up with no make-up, with wild hair and in a dumb t-shirt AND you don't have to worry about your shirt riding up during Standing Mountain Climbers? Prime. The workout is amazing, as well. I've lost 16 pounds (down to 140) and can DO things. I can do things I couldn't do when I started. I am getting stronger and more agile. I have energy. I feel really proud of myself, and I don't say that often. Or, really, ever. Each day is different. It's broken down into small chunks, so it always seems manageable. It's brutal, I'm not going to lie. I've never sweat this much in my life. Every session leaves me spent, but feeling - and I'm really going to say this - revitalized. This isn't a "Show up sometimes and eventually, maybe you'll see a little results" routine. This is a, "Commit to showing up, workout until you think you may actually die (maybe that's just me) and get amazing results" routine. Oh, and girls only. I love that. Fridays are Yoga, Wednesday is a running class (never gone, too scared), Saturday is a walk/run that you can bring friends and family along to. The other days are a boot camp style workout that will kick your (getting-to-be nicely toned) butt. Megan Powers is the owner and coach and everyone loves her. You can't not love her. Remember my earlier reference about the awful over-the-top, over enthusiastic, let's make everyone feel uncomfortable with my sugar-coated, sing-song voice? That's not Megan. Megan is funny and easygoing. Easygoing, but super motivating. She knows how to get the best from everyone, without making anyone feel like a loser. She puts everyone at ease right away. Megan has encouraged me to re-examine what I believed to be my limitations. It takes a pretty unique person and place for me to be comfortable enough to even attempt something that could very easily end up being incredibly humiliating. But I felt comfortable enough to try hard things and it turns out I could do them, after all. She's really knowledgeable about fitness and nutrition. My husband is a fitness and nutrition superstar, and she tells me the same things he tells me, so I trust her. Plus, you can't argue with results. I'm getting smaller AND stronger. And while I can't say that I bounce out of bed each morning or that I arrive to class thrilled to be moments away from a hard, hard workout, I can tell you that I really do love (and hate) each day there. At the end, I always love it. In the middle, it's a love/hate thing. But if it was easy, this would all be a waste of time. The hour is going to pass one way or another - better to have it pass with a workout that will really, really count. Longest review I've ever written, but I couldn't leave any of it out!

Kaia F.I.T will change your life, no joke. Being an athlete all of my life, I had difficulty…read moreacclimating to life with a sedentary job and no real outlet for activity. I mean, I hate the gym, I really do. Years of playing soccer, track, swimming, has wired me to be outside when being active not indoors on a treadmill watching someone else play sports. At this point in my life I really needed a change and was having a hard time sleeping through the night when I happened upon a Living Social deal at 2 a.m. for Kaia and I decided then and there to give it a whirl. Wow! I was so intimidated, Kaia F.I.T. is based on muscle confusion, so every day it's different and 3 months later, it is still challenging and fun. I don't respond well to drill sergeant type tactics, and Meghan is far from it she's absolutely AWESOME! She's encouraging without being overbearing and inspiring without being pompous. I have lost 5 inches overall and continue to stay with Kaia in an effort to be strong, not necessarily skinny. Since I work in the healthcare field and am working on becoming a clinical health educator, it is imperative for me to set a good example for my patients. Kaia is helping me to change lives; Meghan is helping me to change lives. Kaia also incorporates nutrition into their boot camp and has three levels of nutrition to assist any to incorporate healthier food habits into their lives. I simply can't say enough good things about Kaia F.I.T. and what it has done for me. Come try it out you won't be sorry. Oh, and that insomnia thing? I'm sleeping through the night, every night, blissful, sweet sleep. Thank you Kaia F.I.T and Meghan for making me stronger every day!

I was excited to attend the Pink Pilates event at Vinarosa Resort and registered through KARVE…read moreFitness after seeing a listed price of $22. I completed the registration, paid, and received an email confirmation clearly showing that I was registered for the June 13th Pink Pilates event. Later, my registration was canceled and refunded because KARVE stated there had been an error and that I had somehow registered for the wrong event. KARVE explained that I had accidentally selected the wrong ticket through their booking system. However, the confirmation I received identified the exact event I intended to attend: the June 13th Pink Pilates event at Vinarosa Resort. As a customer, I had no reason to believe anything was wrong. While I understand that technical issues can happen, I don't think customers should lose their spot in an event after receiving a confirmation for the correct date, time, and event. To be fair, KARVE did send an email to an old email address I no longer regularly check, and I take responsibility for not updating that information. However, they also claim they attempted to call me but did not leave a voicemail.. When I later raised that concern, I was told my voicemail inbox was full, which was not the case when I checked it. What is most disappointing is that the event is now sold out. Despite registering, paying, and receiving a confirmation for the correct event, I lost my spot and am now being told that if I want to attend, I need to pay the listed price and join a waitlist, with no guarantee of getting in. A pricing error is understandable. Canceling confirmed registrations, removing customers from a sold-out event, and then asking them to pay more for a waitlisted spot is not. The issue is not that a mistake was made; it's how the mistake was handled. I was genuinely looking forward to supporting this event and trying KARVE, but this experience left me feeling frustrated and undervalued as a customer.
