Instantly when I started taking classes at Facet Seven I appreciated the community and friendliness at the front desk, members, and the instructors as well. I mainly take Stefani's barre, yoga, and ABC class but also have enjoyed HIIT and strengthcon with Emma. Stefani is a bright light and makes working out so fun but also challenging. Emma similarly looks to challenge but is also motivating and provided me modifications when needed with an injury, looking out for me when I didn't realize I could re-injure something without even knowing. The gym has a variety of equipment but is on the smaller side, so it's easier to see and get to know regulars in your class but also meet new people. Highly recommend!

I've been doing CF for over a year and during that time I have tried out many CF gyms (in TX and out-of-state). This is by far one of my better decisions that has continued to pay physical and mental dividends. Pros: +Coaching (well-trained, upbeat, well-informed, diverse in background of expertise, strong holistic programming, instruction is form-focused) +Gym (up-to-date equipment, clean, plenty of space for large classes, good ventilation, canopy in the back) +People (chill, friendly, good mix of competitive and active folks with regular jobs, "family" feel, all body types and levels of fitness welcome) +Misc (protein/drink supplements on site for sale, kid-friendly, dog-friendly, updated programming added Yoga, Olympic strength training, nutrition plans, in close proximity to great Heights eateries for post-workout calories) Cons: -No shower on site (not a deal breaker and not common at most CF gyms) Drop in and get to know some of the coaches, they're all approachable.

I once came in one day with a sore shoulder from overuse and the light shoulder exercises Brice had me do helped my recovery significantly. I was 90% recovered by the next day!

It's only been a month of training with Brice, and I already feel better about my body and even my posture. Did I mention how nice the gym is? Brice recently moved to a new gym and it is spacious with brand new equipment. All his clients are friendly people too! Give Brice a try for meeting your workout goals, I'm confident he won't disappoint.

He knows what he is doing, pays attention, and genuinely wants the best for his clients. THE CORE gym is clean and has plenty of parking. When the previous gym shut abruptly, Brice had us up and running in the current gym basically overnight. Amazing. He prices his services to motivate you to go 3x a week. That may sound like a lot but it creates a routine. And that's GOOD. He pushes you in a "you can do this" way but is realistic if the weight is just too much. Brice balances the sessions so that your whole body gets a workout over the week. And he is big on stretching. He works hard to plan productive sessions where your time is valued. Not much on chitchat and no "lollygagging". Heather covers on certain days of the week; she is knowledgeable as well with a dry sense of humor. I highly recommend giving them a try. Your first workout is complimentary, I think, so really what do you have to lose? Just do it. It's time.

Pros: She's kind and doesn't make you feel like an asshat when you are being a wuss, but does encourage you to be less wussy.

In all seriousness, if you are ready to make a change and get fit for good, Mandy is your gal. After one session with her you will know you have made the right choice.

Then I discovered The Edge here on Yelp and I love it! The classes are small and focused. Some days are cardio based, other days are weight based, so you're always getting a balanced workout. Tim is a fantastic instructor. He gives due attention. Teaches proper form. He's also methodical about which stretching we do, knowing most people have jobs sitting most of the day. The workouts never get boring! Tim also teaches different Martial Arts classes (Mousel's), as well as Women's Self Defense. Whether you want to lose weight or have more strength or just be fit, there is so much variety offered here to help achieve your personal goals!

The best thing about Tim's classes is that he pushes you to do your best, but never so hard that you'll never want to go back. I really look forward to attending every time. Participants in the classes range from people just starting their fitness journey to those that attend 6 days a week. It doesn't matter what level you're at, it's never intimidating. Everyone there is very encouraging, which makes for a very fun experience. A typical day in the class is running the stairs outside for about 10-15 minutes, then strength training exercises for 20 minutes, then abs and stretching for the last 10-15 minutes. One of the things that Tim does well is mixing up the exercises so that we're not doing the same things over and over again. Also, he incorporates some martial arts and crossfit type exercises which adds some fun to it. I can't say enough good things about Tim's classes. Do yourself a favor and give it a try. You won't regret it. Edit: Don't be intimidated by all the pictures of the girls in the classes. There's a good amount of guys that attend the classes as well!
