I had the great fortune to find Dara through Yelp reviews as I was searching for some…read morephysical/mental/emotional help after losing our son on this earth to a car crash when someone ran a red light and killed him instantly. I had gained a lot of weight due to the stress and cortisol that was released in my body along with not getting much good sleep at all for months. I knew my son would want me to grab a hold of my life and get things a bit back on track. I interviewed a few people and once I talked with Dara over a phone consultation I knew she was the perfect person to help me. I am now 3 months in and am the strongest I have been in years thanks to our strength training. I can lift my own luggage up into the overhead bin with no soreness. I can get up and down stairs fantastically now (even though I had a partial knee replacement 2 years ago). My mental health is more aligned with my goals of navigating this grief journey with moments of joy along with sadness. Dara is fantastic at adapting my workouts to my limitations and age. I know that the clothes will fit better and better as I continue the good work with her. I feel that if I had not had 6 additional deaths since the loss of my son eight months ago that I would be even further along in my toning and conditioning; however having to fly to funerals has set me back but Dara stays right by me, coaching me along, and being my biggest cheerleader and advocate. At the age of 63, I have made the best investment in myself that I could possibly make at this time. Her in-home studio is filled with all types of equipment so that my workouts are varied and effective. Her outside studio is fun to tackle on the Florida days that allow outside workouts. I have learned so much about nutrition, our body's chemical makeup, and more from Dara. BEST MONEY SPENT EVER on me!

I met Dara 6 months before my wedding and I keep telling people it was meant to be!…read more At the first appointment we met to talk about my goals and even looked at my dress which helped me get excited and motivated! Dara also set up a nutrition plan which I followed religiously and still do. Dara is very aware about what your limits are and when to push you. She regularly talks with me about how I'm feeling, sleeping and my diet. Her regular attention has helped keep me mindful of the decisions I am making every day. When wedding day came around I had lost about 20 lbs. and toned up! I felt so calm on my wedding day. I believe my workouts really helped to manage my stress leading up to that day and Dara was always there to keep me focused and encouraged! She won't let you give up! I am not going to quit now that the wedding is over. After the honeymoon I got right back on schedule. Dara wants her clients to be happy and successful. She is positive, encouraging and adept which only fuels your desire to improve!

I love how cheap the gym membership is here and how large the gym is. There's a ton of equipment…read moreand cardio machines. There's also an indoor lap pool and hot tub which is awesome. I don't think any other gyms around has an indoor lap pool. I don't like swimming outside and having the sun age my skin. What could be better? Well, the gym is very crowded all the time so I feel like it's the hunger games in the weight room and sometimes I don't get to use the machines I want. Sometimes people are nice but there are definitely some rude, cocky people there with attitude. I also dislike how many influencers or people that are filming themselves. It's busy enough and now I feel like I need to move out of the way because I don't want to be in your video/photos. Also- why does the childcare room only take 2+ year old kids? They should take babies as well. I can't workout here as much as I want because I am a mom of young kids. I like how the ymca can take care of babies starting 6 or 8 weeks I believe. The parking lot is madness when it's busy. Hard to find a spot sometimes. This place just keeps signing up more and more members and so it's overcrowded here. If it wasn't for the indoor lap pool, I would have gone elsewhere for the gym and spend a little more money.

While Planet Fitness is inexpensive and caters to newbies, there's a lot of frustrating things there for people who want to progress. The space is clean, well-equipped, and organized. They don't oversell memberships, so there's no issues with waiting for equipment. I feel like at Forged someone can start new and then grow into a fitness lifestyle at a pace that is comfortable for them, and at the same time people who are really focused can get all that they want and more. I've become more of the latter over time. The owner is friendly, and he continually makes improvements based on member input. They also offer behavioral support that is not found elsewhere. I'm really glad that Tampa has this place available.
