Definitely small established facilities here in the valley. Came here as our middle school and high…read moreschool teams were given an opportunity to participate in a combine in preparation for sports. I liked the interaction with the coaches and the combine staff throughout the morning as they did a good job communicating with everyone as well as engaging the athletes. They did a really good job of explaining what the expectations were, how they will get measured. "World Class" so expected nothing less. If you live on this side of town, I would recommend as an option to consider to next the athlete to the next level. Lots of professionals uses facility not only here in Arizona but other athletes around the country & the facility grounds have a lot of equipment to accommodate all types of training and conditioning.

There is a good reason the place is chock full of NFL hopefuls, Olympians, champions and national…read moreteams...when it comes to training, whether you are looking for sport-specific training or simply for overall health, Athletes' Performance has no rival. It is expensive, yes, but worth every penny. Their approach is completely integrated - they will oversee nutrition, training, psychology, and recovery in a world class facility. They are extremely scientific and very cutting edge; their staff also contributes significantly to the research community. I was fortunate enough to live in the Phoenix are for 9 months and cannot speak well enough of their staff or their programs. You'll come to improve yourself and will end up drinking the kool aid! Once you get in the swing of things it's hard to get enough of this place, and I shockingly found myself actually looking forward to arriving there before sunrise 6 days a week (ok, a bit later on Saturdays). My physical condition and overall health improved at a breakneck pace and I had a blast doing it! If you're motivated and fortunate enough to train at AP here are a few tips: Chris Brown makes the world's tastiest post-workout shake, the nutritionist Simin Levinson is a wonderful person and an excellent cook, so take her advice on kitchen matters, and if you can get your massages done by Eric Ford, do so - it will hurt but the man is a truly gifted healer. I just cannot gush enough about this place. It is worth saving up for either for yourself or for your athletic kids!

The saying, "insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results"…read morepretty much sums up my old workout and eating routine; doing the same thing for years and expecting change. My husband had similar frustrations with working out. Luckily, he found Underground and we both enrolled and I'm so happy we did. I cannot say enough positive things. Our trainer (Danny) and coach (Shane) are both awesome. Danny has been fantastic with how positive and patient he is, especially with someone like me who's never even picked up weights in a gym before. He keeps workouts interesting and challenging. Shane helps provide accountability outside of the gym especially with eating; turns out I wasn't eating enough! Both are extremely knowledgeable and happy to pass along their knowledge. As for the gym itself. We signed up for semi-private sessions, but you get a lot of 1-on-1 time and it never really feels crowded. You never have to fight over equipment and everything is constantly wiped down. Also, scheduling sessions is easy and flexible. Honesty, my husband and I really look forward to going to the gym, it's actually fun, like really fun...not a chore. We've both changed physically, but also mentally. This journey has been so positive for both of us. I would highly recommend this gym. If I had the means, (and lol their willingness) I would sign up my family/friends!

I searched a long time for somewhere to learn and practice Tai Chi and found 9 Dragons King Fu…read more They teach traditional Shao Lin, Wu Dang and Hong Jia Kung Fu. I was excited that they also offer Tai Chi classes. Tai Chi is low-impact but builds strength and balance and it looks cool too. I wanted something that challenged me while getting a good workout. Mrs. Kaneen is a great instructor. She has such a positive attitude and makes sure to vary the training from time to time so it doesn't get boring. She teaches Yang style, Chen style Tai Chi forms, sometimes self defense, mixes in some health and wellness tips, and even some weapons training. The way she teaches you makes everything seem so easy, from your hand movement, foot work to breathing techniques. The small class size is perfect. Everyone gets her personal attention. I've been a student there for 4 years. I would highly recommend it.

Having interviewed several schools that offered Tai Chi, I found that 9 Dragons, hands down, is THE…read moreplace in the North Valley to learn the art. Simu Kaneen is thoughtful, caring, patient, and professional. It's now been over 5 years that I've been learning to practice Tai Chi here. Not only have I gained a wealth of beneficial knowledge, but better health, greater focus, improved balance, physical strength, and higher self-esteem, all significantly boosted. Tai Chi is hundreds of years old. The instruction here carries on its tradition and longevity in a relaxed, pleasant environment and manner. I will surely carry this with me the rest of my days.
