What I have learned from Mike at Longevity is unlike what I have seen and felt from other trainers…read more He gives you all of his attention and is dedicated to having you feel strong without getting hurt. He works not to "make it burn" but for you to be in good form, efficient, and organized, while gaining strength, balance and coordination. From a dance and movement background, I am impressed by his understanding of developmental movement and getting back to basics. He understands that getting better from that place has a more lasting impact. He is constantly doing research and doesn't give me drills, but tailors the work to what I need. I see him do this with everyone. At times it seems like I am not doing much, but I trust my body which says that I am stronger and healthier with his work. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Traditionally Sundays are for brunch and Bloody Marys. This past Sunday I decided to go Zen and…read moretake a 4PM Gentle Yoga class at Energy Movement Center in downtown Peekskill. It's a small studio with two yoga/workout rooms but has a HUGE community feel. Drop in class are $20 but they offer tons of packages from class cards to full membership. Besides yoga they offer Pilates, tai chi, cardio, personal training and specialized workshops/events. Gentle Yoga @4PM on Sunday is led by Liz Lazo who added a little bit of Zen via starting with meditation (a bit more than breath in/out) before guiding us through the gentle yoga practice. It was a small class just 2 people so she tailored the class to our needs (back/hips). She is excellent but since she's also my cousin I will list her bio not written by me! Liz Lazo has been practicing yoga for over 13 years and has received instruction in Hatha, Iyengar, Kripalu & Vinyasa styles. She earned her 200 Hour Vinyasa Teacher Training certificate through Living Yoga with Liz Schulman and Richard Villella in March 2013. Liz is a registered member of Yoga Alliance. In addition, she attained the First Degree of Reiki through Ginny Mackles in March 2011 and applies the principles to her work as a yoga student and instructor. Related or not she's good enough to get me to give up my Sunday Bloodys!

Not going to waste my time as I've no idea 'where' to go or how to find their website and list of classes....

Since I'm only here for the week, I didn't want to get tied down to a long contract. But when I walked in, I was joyfully greeted by two employees, Justin and Jeralde (I believe that was his name). Justin explained everything clearly and helped me get a 3-day pass with no pressure at all. If I lived in the area, I'd definitely get a membership here! The gym is very clean, well-maintained, and has a great atmosphere.

Following a recent flood, this gym was in a state where everything needed to be updated due to mold…read moresmells and heavy dust, so I placed my membership on hold. When I recently visited(July), the mold smell had decreased, but the floors still hadn't been repaired, causing dust to fly everywhere. Despite a long time passing, management only expected understanding from its members instead of fixing the issues, which led me to cancel my membership. ​However, I found out I had already been charged for June and July without even realizing it. I exchanged emails with the Assistant Manager regarding this issue, but she refused to provide a refund for those months, strictly citing their policy. I told her I understand their stance, but in fairness, I would be leaving a review about this experience. I have been a member here for over 5 years, but in the end, it is clear that they do not care about their members' health or safety. Horrible facility management and completely unfair billing. Avoid this place.

I never lifted weights until I started working with Clint so I didn't realize how effective it is for transforming my body and burning calories. I've always been very nervous to go near the weights in the gym I belong to so I only focused on cardio, bodyweight exercises and abs, exercises I thought were easy to tackle without hurting myself. Yet I was always having knee pain... Clint pointed out that I have been doing squats and lunges wrong this whole time on my own. This is why I needed a trainer...doing things wrong was giving me limited results and injuries! Clint has taught me so much and I have gained so much confidence in my techniques. Having Clint as my Personal Trainer has made me feel so comfortable with weights and I'm even eager to lift heavier now(and lifting heavy weights has not made me bulky either)! Clint's training method consists of hard work but simple techniques which he will teach you to master. Clint is a stickler on form so he will make sure your form is perfect before bringing you to the next level. He will constantly remind you to breathe and reiterate how your body should be positioned. He will push you to finish your sets, but in an encouraging way. His way of instructing is stern but pleasant. He really cares that you fully understand an exercise so he will explain it 5 different ways if necessary until you understand it (which was the case with me). He is patient and provides good tips to help you remember what you are supposed to be doing. He brings great energy to the session that makes you enjoy working out with him. I am SO happy with my progress and thrilled that I found Clint as my Personal Trainer!

I've been spoiled at certain times in my life…read more I was born in Southern California and spent my very young years living three blocks from the beach and a short drive from Disneyland. I got out of having to be in the band, chorus or orchestra in middle school because my mom was a PTA big shot and pulled some strings. Every time we drove up from Jersey to Penn State to drop me off at college, the same mom would stop at the beer distributor and pick me up a case of Yuengling. And The Chatham Club was the first gym I ever went to. But being spoiled doesn't always have its privileges. Every other gym is ruined for me because none can keep up with this place. I've been a member here three separate times in my travails in and out of living in this area, and every time they seem to have something new for the members. With my recent membership I noticed 3 stationary bikes with large screens attached to them. They aren't TVs but provide you the opportunity to ride virtual courses. Instead of just being told there's a hill by some LCD screen, you see the hill approaching with the ocean to your left. Very cool stuff. They have a huge assortment of treadmills, bikes, ellipticals and machines (a separate spinning studio also). Pretty much everything you could need is here and then some. If there's any sort of minor complaint, the free weight area is a little small and can get crowded if you go during a busy time, but it's not too bad. There are also 6 squash courts if that's your thing plus an aerobics studio, pilates and probably tons of other things I don't even know about. Just get off your butt and go already.

### Regarding Physical Therapy…read more I came in July to work on my shoulder. I couldn't do a pull up anymore or a full range pushup without severe discomfort. Previous effort helped normalize the pain, but I didn't make great progress on my own. I started with doubt that I could recover range and ability. Within 2 months of work so far, Taylor has stepped the programming based on his observations of my current ability. Just when I thought I was getting used to the work, he pulled the line. I was able to, as part of the regular programming able to do a pushup off the floor with disbelief. The same goes with a pull up as well. His decades of experience works you, as long as you give it a chance, consistently. ### Regarding Group Fitness Class The daily group classes are in a place of itself. It will introduce you to movements that you may not do well, increase your mobility and cardio fitness. There are many levels of people who participate, all growing together. The programming is well thought out and structured. Highly recommend as I have taken the dive fitting this into my various routines. Since the free trial, I am definitely moving differently compared to the extreme difficulty I had initially. I thought I had some kind of fitness, but this exposed me to challenge me. Living proof! Lets go!
