This gym is fantastic. My wife and I switched from another gym in town and couldn't be happier…read morehere. Dave Vale is an amazing fitness instructor. His classes are top-notch. In fact, you really can't go wrong with any of the classes/instructors here. I believe there are around 140 classes in total throughout the week, so many different options for you to choose from (classes are included FREE with membership). You also get points every time you check into the gym that you can redeem for free stuff. The equipment is well-maintained. I have not encountered an issue with the equipment. The gym consists of nice free weight areas (1 big area downstairs and 2 smaller ones upstairs away from the crowd). There's also plenty of cardio equipment, a sled track, classrooms for classes, an SLX studio, spinning room, and the PIT. The people also make the difference here. Shout out to the front desk, especially Liz and Rana. All the front desk staff is friendly and will greet you when you walk in. Plus, free coffee in the morning after your workout (and sometimes in the afternoon too). There's also a smoothie bar open from time to time, and childcare services. Each gym has it's own vibe. The vibe here seems likes it centers around working class folks and families. Sure, there are some big powerlifters and high-end athletes, but nothing compared to a "meathead" gym. I highly recommend this place for working professionals, busy parents, and mature younger adults to get and stay healthy.

They have created a culture of honor at the gym with a fun atmosphere. There are all shapes, sizes, and ages that attend and all are made to feel welcome. I can't say enough about how much I appreciate what this organization has done for my health. I plan to attend this gym for years to come.

This place is uniquely awesome…read more I've been to many of the gyms in the blono area and this one has something different. The difference is the passion and care of the Coaches. Drew takes a special interest in each one of his members in a way that I've never experienced. If you don't go for a couple of days, you can bet you'll get a text from Drew. Unlike other gyms, he'll reach out to you simply because he wants you to improve, not just because your renewal date is coming up. They also regularly program interesting workouts to keep you on your toes. Over the course of 18 months, the workouts never got easy because Drew kept finding ways to keep them challenging. During my time at Be Strong, I truly felt like I had a community of people who cared about my personal progression. Ever since I moved away from Bloomington, I've been trying to figure out how to replace this truly special experience.

You couldn't ask for a cooler, more central location in downtown Bloomington, and the front has a fun gift shop, so, stop in for that if you're curious! I attended a yoga nidra class here around new year's and Carmen was an amazing teacher that talked us through a guided meditation and body scan. I walked away feeling very calm and peaceful, but there are a number of other types of yoga classes offered. Can't wait to be back! Thank you, Main Street Yoga!

The studio provides mats, blankets, and blocks for no additional charge. I've never been to such a such a generous studio! The three class trial is an awesome deal, just make sure to use it within the specified time. My favorite class has been Saturday morning moderate yoga taught by Tonya. She has a way with words and will truly get your weekend off to the right start. This class is taught at the Washington Street studio, which had a lot of natural light. Another perk is that the farmers market is right outside when class is over! If you have not ever practiced yoga, I urge you to check out the gentle classes. There are all ages and activity levels at the class, so no need to be shy. Get thee to yoga!

These women really get me motivated to work out, and do things I don't really want to do. But after I do them and the classes I feel so much better and want to do better in my life. Dafne is a wonderful person, shipment of energy and makes a great leader. All of the women that instruct the classes are awesome because they all have a lot of energy and they know how to explain the moves in a way that you get the hang of it. The most important part about the gym, is that there is no judgment. You don't feel like you're being watched, or judged on how you do the moves compared to someone else. The instructors are easy to talk to if you need help or to get the form down to prevent injury. These ladies are looking out for you without embarrassing you. The trainer, Nicolette is great! When I did some training with her, she explained why we are doing the exercises, which really helped me understand why I was doing it! It made me enjoy going to training instead of dreading it.

Above a great experience, I'm seeing my body transform right in front of me. Not only physically am I stronger, but also mentally.

So many hugs. So much excitement. And if you're me, many tears to be shed as well. There are many ways that people of all ages can volunteer their time here. So many opportunities that could fit every personality or temperament. You can help run events, officiate games, keep scores, be a "shuffler" -helping move participants along, help judge, hand out awards, or even just be a cheerleader with hugs, high fives, and fist bumps. -the participants love those! I used to volunteer for things like this because I felt I should "give back" since my life has been so blessed. But in time, I've come to realize that I should help with events such as this because I have much to learn from these participants. With insurmountable personal trials and limitations, they often show such generous spirit and love for every person they cross paths with. They both encourage their opponents and high five the ones who beat them. They more often than not happily accept their 5th place ribbon and wear them with pride. After congratulating an athlete after he won the gold in one of the field events, I commented to him that he was so lucky to have a gold and that I'd never won one before. He embraced me warmly and then said "That's okay! Do you know why? You don't need gold to be happy." Profoundly said. No, indeed you do not need gold (or riches) to be happy. PS: Be sure to bring sunglasses to hide your crying eyes. YOU try keeping a dry eye when you place a medal around a gleeful 10 yr old's neck with the Olympic theme song booming and her proud family beaming on the sidelines!!
