    I am a big fan of Element 22! I was at home for the summer, bored, and I needed a good workout to…read morechallenge me. Dow Fitness center does have great specialty classes, but only on certain days of the week - and no ballet bar (yet!). I've been wanting to try ballet barre classes for a long time, but the rival ballet studio down the street is hugely expensive. Someone recommended Element to me, and I was very impressed with the experience overall. The classes are reasonably priced, the online scheduling system is easy to use and the instructors are really talented. They also let you try your first week free, in case you are unsure. When you first go, the instructors are very high energy - the workouts are extremely intense, but in a positive way (this is not bootcamp style). You will be very tired but amazed what your body can do by the time you are done. Ballet bar was one of the hardest workouts I have ever done, even with years of tennis, spinning and Pilates under my belt. The idea is very tiny, very slow muscle movements that work under-used muscle areas. The first few reps are easy, until you suddenly feel an intense burn. They will take you through about 15 minutes each of Arms, Abs/Back, Glutes and Legs. It is not for the faint of heart, but don't be scared off by the challenge. It becomes addicting! Pilates was still tough but incorporated enough yoga elements to give your muscles a periodic break. I recommend this for those just starting over the ballet bar. I didn't get to try the yoga, unfortunately. I also wanted to address the stereotypes head on - a lot of people are intimidated by places like this because they think everyone will be too fit, too wealthy and too snooty. You will see the lululemon crowd here to be sure, but I also saw a range of fitness levels, body types, fashion choices and ages. Yoga guys in loose sweaters would do planks next to high school students and seniors. Tanned fitness buffs would chat with new moms and people with muscle injuries. It's very diverse! Personally, I never felt out of place, although I am not very fit. I think it may have something to do with the instructors - they put out a very welcoming vibe to everyone, and do their best to remember everyone by name. Element 22 only has a few downsides. When you first start they will often publicly correct your form, which can be a little embarrassing. You may also not make it through the entire workout. But different instructors have different styles and they have a good variety of personalities and class types to try until you feel comfortable. All of the employees are extremely outgoing and personable, so it's totally okay to pull them aside and ask them anything (like modifications for injuries, which I saw a lot of). I suggest going for the first week, giving it a try and seeing how goes - I think almost everyone will be pleasantly surprised!

    I love element and have been coming here for over 3 years and over 500 classes. As an avid tennis…read moreplayer and athlete, element has the best offerings of cardio , strength, and to restore. I can easily balance my workouts and come 7 days per week and never get bored! The instructors and their training are the best I have found. I can do the peloton bike and stretch after with yin or yin-yang yoga, strengthen and balance with pilates or barre , or have just have a fun day at WERQ with the dance and music! Try a week and you will see !

    I'm a fitness professional from the land of boutique fitness studios (Portland, OR). I was very…read moreskeptical of this place since I've been to some really amazing fitness studios in NYC and Portland. So imagine my surprise when I set up a time for a PiYo (pilates-yoga flow) class here. The space is large and very well maintained and clean. (God, I love clean, I hate when you're in down dog and spy a hair cluster that sweeping missed). Lovely space. Good class selection. Seriously, if this were on the coast, users would probably pay $150+ a month to join. I've been to one class, hope to get in one more, but from one pro to another, Sarah Fechter has a good thing going. Keep it up and keep giving Saginaw a place to get their fit fab on. The only thing preventing me from giving it a full five stars was the reservation system. I found it really odd that FB posts/replies were how spots were reserved. They would probably be better served transitioning to MindBody or MYiClubOnline for class reservations so you don't have to wait for a FB reply to see if you're in or not.

    I've been to Sarah Fechter doing Zumba even before there was a studio! I love Sarah and the was she…read morepersonalizes with everyone. If you're new to a class, the instructor notices and introduces herself right away. The classes are taught advanced and modified so no matter your speed, it's an amazing workout! There's new "swag" all the time so it's not the same t-shirt every week! Love love love SFF, it's my home away from home

    From the owner: Your desire to change must be greater than your desire to remain the same. Seeking therapy is a…read morehuge step in that journey. You are wanting to move towards a life which feels more peaceful but aren't exactly sure how to get from here to there. How to get unstuck. Maybe you've been to therapy before and felt that they didn't "get it" or didn't offer you the tools that were needed in the worst way. Are you seeking connection, understanding, practical help, and some humor from your therapist? If you want a different approach specifically created for you that feels authentic and holistic which creates sustained change, let's talk. With a versatile therapy background since 2016 and tools as a certified yoga teacher, I desire to come alongside you and work with you to empower yourself. We will incorporate evidence based practices as well as yoga philosophy, breath work, various meditations and visualizations, skill building, and releasing trauma from the body. It is time for you to heal. I personally understand struggle, anxiety, trauma, depression, and chronic pain on a deep level. I understand how difficult it can be to reach out for help, to admit that you aren't able to heal yourself. This effort to enlist help makes you strong and resilient, not weak. Let's work together to get you walking down the path that best serves you.
