I have been training with Katja at PeakFit Studio for a little over a month now, and I couldn't be…read morehappier. For years, my doctor stressed the importance of strength training, and I always found an excuse to put it off. I'm so incredibly grateful that I finally took the leap--and especially that I did it with Katja's urging and guidance. She is an absolutely incredible trainer. She's not just knowledgeable and safety-focused; she is genuinely energetic and inspiring, and she actually makes the process fun. Katja has a knack for knowing exactly how far to push me, helping me achieve things I honestly didn't think my body was capable of. In just over 1 month, I already feel much stronger and more in tune with my body overall. I wish I had done this years ago! I highly recommend Katja, and I just found out she's taking on a few more clients, so if you've been waiting to start, now is the time! Huge thanks to Katja and the entire PeakFit staff for creating such a welcoming and motivating environment.

From the owner: PEAKFIT. Studio is Arden's only private personal training studio, built specifically for adults…read moreover 40 who are done with crowded gyms, generic programs, and zero accountability. Founded by Katja Raab, a breast cancer survivor who rebuilt her body through fitness and nutrition, PEAKFIT. was created with one belief: your body is capable of more than you think, and it's never too late to prove it. Lead trainer Alexander Zierhut holds a B.S. in Exercise Science from Florida Atlantic University. Together with corrective exercise specialist Franklin Pierce, they build programs around you, your body, your goals, your limitations. We offer private 1-on-1 training, small group personal training, nutrition coaching, corrective exercise and mobility work, medical-grade InBody body composition scans, infrared sauna with red light therapy, and a fresh juice and smoothie bar. Whether you're 45 or 75, coming back from surgery or training for the next chapter of your life, we meet you where you are and build from there. This is personal training the way it should be: private, expert, and designed to change your life.

At 37 when I first dropped in (6 months ago), I wanted to be healthy and fit but was worried about…read moreinjury and did not want to be in an environment that was competitive in an unhealthy way. I began very skeptical... Very quickly I would lean that this is a community where any level of athlete can work toward their goal(s) and be fully supported and encouraged positively by all. I have not met a better, more passionate coach; (Tom) who has taught me so much. In a short time I have come so far and have *enjoyed* exercising in a way that I never had before. Importantly, I don't ever recall feeling this good (energy and strength in daily life), and now at 38 years old!

The person up front is very helpful and makes sure you have everything you need. The teacher I had made sure to demonstrate each move before letting the class practice the move.

They have a schedule for adults that shows all the classes they'll have Monday through Saturday. They also have classes for kids and overall it's a great place to learn. I only give 4 out of 5 because it's my first gym and while it was great, I have nothing to compare it to. I definitely recommend.
