I have been taking Agnes classes for 2 years ( took a break while pregnant ) and started back up a month post partum. In the beginner class, you can take it easy as you need if you're starting out and gradually add more to challenging yourself. She changes up her flow and class every week, so you are consistently working different areas of the body. I took yoga classes at random and used to feel it a slow boring waste of time more or less a relaxing class that does "stretching". I love to lift and do intense endurance cardio. It wasn't until going here consistently that I was blown away with the fitness aspect of yoga- the strength/flexibility/core stability/etc. involved. You will be challenged more than you possibly think and I promise the health benefits, both mentally and physically, will surprise you! I highly recommend Melt and the classes here. Side note: The owner rocks.

I really appreciated her telling me about the socks instead of me having to buy them at the studio. She was very helpful. The instructor Taylor L did a great job and asked me about my injuries prior to class. She had excellent accommodations and remember what I told her prior to class. As a former fitness instructor(and someone who used to hire them) she is an excellent instructor. Her explanations were clear, the class flowed well, and she provided multiple options. I also liked the number of participants in the class. Sometimes it feels so crowded but I feel this studio has the right number of participants. If I lived closer I would buy a membership here. I would 100% pay for another class if I'm in town

I loved him so much that my whole family now trains with him. You can tell he really knows his stuff and works really hard to help you hit your goals. I sought out a personal trainer to help me runner fast in a dog sport. I was slow and couldn't keep up. Now I am much more agile and my increased speed helps my dog run even faster now! I can't wait to see the continued results!

If you are thinking of calling David, I encourage you to take that first step. My son-in-law tells…read moreme "whoever you are working with, they are making a difference"...."a year ago, you would never have tried any of the things you're doing now". It wasn't the weight that bothered me. It was my inability to do various activities with my family. I choose to sign up for his 42 day program and lost 23 pounds. I kept working with David and lost another 29 pounds. The weight loss has been great; however, more important to me is how my life has changed. I'm off my blood pressure medication, I have signed up for a 5K, and can take my grandson on a 10 mile bike ride. My health and quality of life has significantly improved. I've never been hungry or felt any of the training was beyond my abilities. I have learned what it looks like to eat right and take care of myself. The small class size allows us to support one another. David made minor modifications to the exercises so I could build strength and accommodate the osteoarthritis in my knee. David has treated me with respect, demonstrated discretion, and worked with me to achieve what I felt was important. If you are looking for someone to work alongside you, to help you achieve what is important to you, David at EmpowerU fitness is absolutely the way to go!

I've always had the "I want to do it on my own" attitude when it came to getting in shape and…read moremaking my health a priority. My stepdad found out about Higher Level Fitness and the 6 week challenge via Groupon and started the challenge himself. As I was on my own health and fitness journey, my stepdad was on his own with Higher Level Fitness and seeing FAST results. I wanted to be able to be active with my friends and family, go on hikes and different adventures without being limited. So, I decided to give Higher Level Fitness a shot and commit to the 6 week challenge. Man, was this something I wish I had heard of a long time ago, and am sure glad that I am doing this now. I have lost 26.6 pounds in the past 6 weeks thanks to Hristo, Patti, Sonny and Chris. They provided me with a list of foods that I could eat split up by proteins, fats and veggies. It sounds very limiting, but if you keep an open mind it's really not that bad, and I had so much fun creating different recipes and meals only using the list of foods I could have. The workouts are awesome. The workouts are what's keeping me motivated and encouraged about my future fitness and how possible getting down to my goal weight actually is. I don't know if I've ever felt so strong, athletic and confident in my life. The workouts are a mix of cardio and strength training geared to build muscle and lose weight effectively when paired with the meal plan. This 6 week challenge is an experience I would recommend to anyone that wants a healthier future for themselves. It's a short commitment that will make a positive impact on your lifestyle.

I have been to lots of gyms and boot camps and I didn't know what to expect from here. This place is like small group personal training. You sign in when you enter and then warm up. Then you move along the stations doing each for 1 minute with time in between to switch and catch a drink. The trainers are there to watch your alignment, help you set a challenging level and encourage you. You are not on your own! At the end of the circuit, you have a cool down and you are done! The trainers help you make it challenging and you don't have to figure out what to do, they've already done it for you! When I was there, I saw people of all ages, shapes and sizes. All were working hard and many had lost several inches through the program. Stop in and check it out!

All timed for a minute each, it's great. The staff keeps you motivated the whole time. When you're done with the stations, you move to the cool down video, again, it's great. Can't get much easier, I love it. Thanks guys!
