This is a not a gym for self workouts. Classes are listed on their website with times and different instructors. They make it easy to sign up for classes, through an online registration program. Each instructor has their own quirky personalities and intensity. This is the kind of place you go to sweat. I have taken spin and TRX classes, and I have never been disappointed. If this is your first time, get there early, chat with the owners who are almost always at the front desk. You will be greeted with smiles as you walk through the door.

Wow! What a great workout!…read more When I first walked in to Believe Fitness I received a warm welcome from co owner Valerie who helped me to my class. Her co owner and husband, Walter was my Instructor for the TRX Team Class and he made me feel right at home as did their friendly members. I have taken many TRX classes in the past and I can say without hesitation that Walter is one of the best! His teaching style is engaging, challenging and encouraging. He coached us to each work at our own level, taking into account our differences and at the same time gave us plenty of options to make each exercise as intense as we wanted. Although it was a group class, Walter customized the workout making it feel personally suited to each of us. The facility is impeccably clean and organized. The decor was bright and welcoming. They have a variety of equipment and ample space to move around as well as super clean bathrooms and showers.

So easy to talk to and I emailed about gift certificates and when I arrived, they had them already done and waiting for me, that was such great service. I really cannot express how polite they all are. Now the gym itself has so much to offer from classes to massages, to health help and of course workout machines and equipment. I haven't even scratched the surface on how much they have. I told my son, I want to take a few days and go through and use each one, just to see what else we can incorporate into our workout routine. There is a small smoothie cafe in the front and they're not open 24 hrs, but if that is something you're looking for, give that a try. They have an upstairs as well that offer more machines and workout space. They offer a large woman (I'm sure men's too) restroom with a shower. They have lockers too, if that is something you need. Overall, this is a very clean and nice gym to go to.

One of the wonderful things since the former BNAS was decommissioned by the Navy is that much of the infrastructure is now available to the residents of Brunswick, where I now live. This includes places like this. While not fancy or particularly high-tech as fitness facilities go, there is a gym for basketball, a small fitness room with treadmills, free weights, and other cardio equipment. There are also a host of classes ranging from yoga, pilates, barre classes, etc. I've done some of their beginner's yoga classes and they're great! What I like about the Landing as the days get colder and I'm not going to get out on my bike or run outside, is that I can drop by (it's 3 miles from my house) and find a treadmill available in the morning or early afternoon. After spending the morning looking at a computer screen, I'm due for a dose of endorphins. Oh, and the staff here are just amazingly friendly and welcoming. After a recent experience with another fitness facility on the other side of town that made me feel like I was imposing on their little clique of insiders, this is refreshing and how I want to have my doses of fitness administered--with a smile and a friendly greeting. Is that so hard to do?

This is a wholehearted shout-out to Pasha Marlowe of Roots and Springs!She is a holistic personal…read moretrainer...she is my trainer...and she is a beautiful breath of fresh air in the crowded field of wellness. Pasha stands out. She turns the old stories upside down. I never thought I would work with a personal trainer. But Pasha is different...and I decided I'm worth the investment to meet my wellness goals as an entrepreneur and mother in my mid-40s! I came to Pasha with some injuries (shoulder issues and SI Joint Dysfunction) and a desire to get stronger and to find relief from chronic stress. I was feeling frustrated because although I live a pretty active life, I have not been able to stick to a strength training routine at home. I don't have time to drive the 30 minutes to the gym (and do not enjoy myself in these settings). Pasha worked with me one-on-one to develop a sensible, fun, and customized program that I could stick to in the comfort of my own HOME . She is incredibly encouraging, highly intuitive, and wise. I feel so nurtured and supported in her presence. She has helped me see just how active I already am, and has helped me celebrate in a new way. Rather than beating myself up about what I'm NOT doing, I'm focusing on what I AM doing. This mindset shift has allowed me to look forward to my exercises, and I naturally want to keep going and see how strong I can get. I've had sessions in the studio, but also a Zoom video session where I felt like she was right in my home with me! The whole session was recorded too. Amazing! So during those times that I can't drive to the studio, I can Zoom with Pasha and stay on track. I highly recommend working with Pasha. She has also just launched an amazing program: ROAR with LAUGHTER"

Meredith and her staff are skilled, sensitive, and fun. Meredith, especially, has an intuitive sense of what the body in front of her needs-the hallmark of a great Pilates teacher. I recommend Springboard to anyone who wants to feel better, move better, or look better. Beginners to advanced, no matter how long-or how little-you've sat on the sofa, there's a class or workout here for everyone. What you won't find is elitism or snobbery-you'll never feel judged or like you're in a competition. On a personal note, I was stricken with stage 3 bladder cancer last year, and struggled to find my way back to health. With patience, steady encouragement, and a ton of kindness, Meredith has overseen my slow and painful return to form. As much as I am grateful for my life, I am grateful to Meredith for helping me return to it.
