First off I would like to say, this is the first time I've gotten an online coach. My previous…read moreCoach was in person but he wasn't as attentive and organized as Joo Hee. I'm sure in person training with Joo Hee is awesome. She is overall just an amazing person. When we had our first check-in we instantly clicked and she was super funny! Joo Hee is super helpful and responds fast whenever I have questions about my program, my form, anything. She's there to help. She took the time to learn about my history of powerlifting. Used that information to create a program that helps me get better and stronger. She super positive all the time and honestly, sometimes we just need that someone to push us and believe in us to do better. And there's no other person I can think of other than Coach Joo Hee :) So if you're thinking about it or hesitate to have Joo Hee as a personal trainer... stop thinking! You found the one! She's an amazing Coach and I think you'll be happy as I am! 10/10

Training with JooHee has honestly been such a special experience for me. Before we started, I truly…read morenever thought I was someone who could lift weights--it felt intimidating and out of reach. But in just six sessions with her, that completely changed. She guided me so patiently, explained everything in a way that made sense, and kept encouraging me. Now I can actually lift weights, and more importantly, I believe that it's something I can do. That shift means so much to me. What I love most is how she makes every session feel both meaningful and fun. She's always sharing something new--whether it's about lifting, food, or just little tips related to workouts. She creates such a positive environment that pushes you while still making the process enjoyable. I'm truly grateful to have her as my trainer.

I started working out at Lift two months ago, and I absolutely love it…read more The workouts are effective and efficient, and, if you're a nerd like me, it's interesting to hear Dirk and Chenell talk about how the movements strengthen different muscle groups. They're always nearby to make sure my form is correct, and they never lose patience when I ask them to remind me how to do certain moves. Speaking of supervision, I went to Lift today for the first time in about a week and a half, and I told Chenell that I've been experiencing some pain in my left shoulder. She sent Dirk outside to talk to me about it, and after I described my symptoms, he re-wrote part of my workout and continued to check in to make sure I wasn't in any pain. I felt super safe and respected, and there was ZERO pressure for me to push through any discomfort. Hiiiighly recommend this place!

Chenell and Dirk run this incredible gym, and they've somehow managed to create that rare combo of…read morebeing incredibly knowledgeable while also just being genuinely good humans. The environment is welcoming, supportive, and most importantly, safe in every way. As a woman, that matters more than it should, but here we are, still at that point in this dumb world, unfortunately. I have never once felt uncomfortable working out there. The gym itself has six stations, which makes it feel like a semi-private training experience and all of the training is with free weights. Every workout is tailored specifically to me, which is a huge benefit. I'm a former ballerina with injuries and fibromyalgia, so I need a lot of modification in my training, depending on the day. They always meet me where I am at and we adjust as needed. They also still manage to keep things challenging when I express wanting to push further but it is always in a way that feels safe and productive. One thing I especially appreciate, coming from a dance background, is how much they focus on body mechanics. Dirk, Chenell, and Emily don't just tell you what to do or demo it once and walk away. They actually take the time to explain what's happening in your body, how to move correctly, and why it matters. Over the past almost five years, I've gotten noticeably stronger and my body has changed for the better but beyond that, it's had a real impact on my mental health, too. Showing up here feels good; so good, that I recommend the gym to many of my friends. If you're looking for a place to train and a workout that's personal and supportive with real results, this is the place.

Background: I took a complimentary class with a loyal client of the studio a few weeks ago. I…read moredidn't know reservations were required, but was very appreciative of the owner's invitation to attend, despite the full class. Karl was supportive, positive, professional and both trainers gave individualized attention to the 11 people in the room. The classes really should be more like 6-7 people for the space though, and they could have spent more time demonstrating the circuit to help people avoid injury since it's faster-paced. Overall, good trainers, accommodating and challenging. I've been planning to purchase a bulk package for the year so I could attend on Saturdays with my friend, and in the meantime, I actively engaged with the Instagram page, trying out their exercises on my own, liking their posts, and recommending it to two of my own clients and a friend, just after the one session. However, as a business in 2017, how you interact with the public on social media is critical. Their Instagram is a nice extension of what they do in the classes, but I started to find some of their meat shaming rhetoric offensive (and PS: I'm not alone in this). I am not anti-vegan, simply a strong advocate for food and body positivity-- there are lots of ways to practice a healthy lifestyle. So I spoke out, letting them know that I found the tone to be repelling, and that it made me question whether the studio was the right fit for me. I shared my own negative experience as a vegan and pointed out that there needs to be substantiated evidence on the claim that "dead animals" cause inflammation of one's olfactory senses. If you're in the business of handling people's health, peer-reviewed, evidence-based, clinical science is kind of important... Perhaps my comment lacked decorum, but nonetheless, there is a way to handle negative comments productively-- they could have easily won me over with a single sentence. But instead, the business chose to become defensive, argumentative, and hostile, engaging in downright school yard bullying tactics. The business exploded my feed, strategically singling out dozens of my photos of unhealthy, caloric dense, meaty celebratory meals, and liking them; a passive aggressive move, as if pointedly saying, "Oh yeah, you wanna say something negative about OUR food choices, fatty?" Then, one of their clients surpassed the passive aggressive by directly calling me fat, lazy and a sugar/ saturated fat addict, making gross assumptions about my eating, body and workout habits, which the business tolerated and agreed with. All because I expressed the fact that I found the tone of her post to be insulting. You are supposed to be in the line of lifting people up and inspiring them. And while there's always some annoyingly sensitive PC client who takes offense to *something* (and perhaps that was me this time) how you handle people who express dissenting opinions is revelatory, and in this case, it demonstrates a severe lack of professionalism, insensitivity, and a disturbing vein of intolerance pulsing beneath the veneer of an otherwise decent studio.

She is intuitive, very knowledgeable in a non pretentious way, and is sensitive to my individual needs. She has a vibrant, sweet and playful aura and makes me feel relaxed which is not an easy task. She has the natural ability to hone in on my strengths, and senses what I need by taking into consideration my previous injuries or areas I need to strengthen as well as simply noticing how I'm feeling in that moment/session and thus making that session just what I needed. She really takes in what you tell her you want to work on and tailors her sessions to that AND also integrates more challenging exercises as she observes your skill and strength develop. When I'm there in the day time we take advantage of the fresh air and do creative exercises she's developed outside which is awesome and makes for a magical and well rounded session. Always leave her sessions feeling better, more confident and looking forward to the next!
