I finally decided to start looking around for new gyms and see which location fit my needs. I tried a few gyms before I discovered SoFit Athletics. I am glad to say that I took the plunge and joined! It is a great facility with wonderful coaches. The other members are welcoming and encouraging. They offer the variety I was looking for and my motivation and general fitness has improved! The owner and operator, Ryan, is very personable and knowledgeable. Also, two showers on site which makes life easier for anyone who exercises! Glad I found this gem in Baymeadows.

Anna is my main pilates instructor and she is the absolute best! She is extremely knowledgable in…read moremany aspects of pilates. I thought I was coming to her for "fitness pilates" but in fact that is not what I needed or wanted. With her keen eye, intuition, and experience she has identified ways in which my body was compensating that really could have developed into major issues when I get older. I am so happy to be working on them now with her to prevent long term issues. All while still developing muscle and definition that pilates naturally brings. Anna provides exceptional instruction, in that she gives wonderful cues and explains the movements incredibly well. I have done pilates before coming to Anna, but she goes the extra mile with helping me to understand exactly how to do the movement. The way she corrects me is one of things I value the most about her. I can do pilates at home, but I know I will be doing a lot of things wrong. With her I can learn how my body is unconsciously compensating for certain weaknesses or ingrained movements, i.e., gripping my glutes, using one leg more than the other, tucking my pelvis, flaring my ribs, etc. In learning these I can feel more confident in my ability to do home workout's when I do have the opportunity to do them. I have also worked with Sonja and Lynn before Anna and I can say that they are exceptional as well and I look forward to working with them when Anna is not available. Everyone at Synergy Studio is warm and welcoming. Kim will greet you with the biggest smile when you walk in. I am not one of those people who just love to work out, but going to the studio is one of my favorite times of the day.

When my daughter turned 3 we decided to get her into a ballet studio as an intro to dance. For the…read moremost part, we had a good experience at BAC but there are some areas where the studio could improve. Positives: Staff was generally nice and knowledgable. I didn't have any issues, but I would say I would have appreciated some updates on my child in class. A simple "your child is doing well with x, but struggling with y" or "they seem to like this or not like this". The BAC community is fairly supportive at the young kids age. Parents are supportive of each other and there isn't any diva behavior. The location of the studio is pretty good and the recital is held at The Florida Theatre which is awesome. The studio has ample parking and bathrooms were clean. Negatives: The younger kids studio seems to be in a pretty old building. Some studios have more modern setups. This is in general and not specific to Jax. I wouldn't say the studio is more or less expensive than others, but I would say that there are some months with holidays that subtract a class. I feel that if you have less classes in a month you shouldn't have to pay for a full month of classes. I do also like how many other studios provide parents with two tickets to the recital albeit maybe they are not half at the best location. It is hard to support your kids with extra practice or support because where they are in terms of learning technique or learning how to dance to choreography is not communicated proactively to you. I would have loved to know where my daughter needed support to help her. Overall, I would suggest you give BAC a try. My daughter enjoyed her first dance class experience. We were likely to stick with BAC for another year and recital, but we moved away out of state. Yesterday, while at the pool we had music playing and I caught my daughter dancing to the music. She wasn't dancing ballet, but she has a love of music and I like to think that was supported and enhanced at BAC.

Our biggest complaint was that they didn't respect our preferences. Whenever we expressed concerns about things happening in class that we weren't comfortable with or inappropriate songs being played, those concerns were ignored.

Registration was easy and could be done completely online, which makes check-in easy when you're in a rush and only have 30 minutes to workout. Their location is in a larger building tucked away and off of Phillips Highway, so convenient for those that live in Nocatee or off of 210. There was a group of people there for the promo class. The owners David and Lauren went over the Physwell model, which is an interesting and new concept, where they have physical therapists in their gym. Their main focus is to try and prevent injuries, so they have you warm up doing movements and stretches that will help mitigate those injuries. In addition to having a lunch time workout, they also have morning and evening classes. They went through the stations we'd be doing, and breaking us up into groups, every minute we moved to a different station, five stations total and we did this circuit three times. I consider myself in good shape. I like working out and run five times a week, but this workout made me feel pretty out of shape, leading me to believe I really need to do more HIT training. This thirty minute workout was perfect for those that are trying to squeeze in a workout and definitely worked my muscles. They were also providing a promotion that if you sign up for a membership they'll waive the enrollment. Pros: -30 minute workout, easy to fit in your schedule -Facility was large and clean -Able to modify workouts for all fitness levels -I like that they focus on injury prevention Cons: -Prices appear to be higher than normal gym memberships. Tips: See if you can try a class before buying a membership
