If you're interested in getting fit, losing weight, feeling better, and joining a community of…read morelike-minded individuals, then you need not go any further than TFW Madison. Although not "CrossFit", the TFW gym might be considered CrossFit-ish and their approach to training shares a lot of the same elements. Functional fitness. Nobody cares how much weight you can bench press through a very circumscribed 24" range of motion. Increased flexibility. Building strength through exercises designed to strengthen your core, supporting muscles, etc. No machines. Ropes, resistance bands, medicine balls, body-weight, kettle bells, dumb bells, and free weights. An open area used for stretching, interval training, and so on. There are at least 6 mentored workouts a day, 5 days a week (plus one Saturday morning). If you're the kind of person whose idea of a workout is jamming out to your iPod while you walk or jog on the treadmill for 30 minutes, followed by 30-40 minutes of weights, this is not your gym. But the truth is that I used to be one of those -- I liked going to the YMCA and sweating it out. The big weight room always seemed like a plus. But I didn't see nearly the results that I've seen in just a few weeks with TFW. As an added bonus, the owners, Jonathan and Jenny, are friendly and will help you stay accountable. Sometimes life can intrude and despite my best intentions I just didn't make it to my workout. Within 24 hours I've heard from Jonathan wanting to make sure I wasn't injured, or know whether everything was OK, and when was I coming back. At least a couple of times that's just what I needed to get me back on track and back on schedule. And it's hard to argue with the results. Down 13lbs in my first 3 weeks. Able to touch my toes without straining for the first time in probably years. Sleeping better. Excited for my next workout, instead of dreading it, even when I'm sore. Training designed to make you stronger, and more importantly, healthier.

I joined TFW in September 2017 after several years at some other local gyms. TFW has been a…read morefantastic experience for me physically, mentally, and spiritually. Prior to TFW, my experience with the whole gym scene in Madison was not positive. I went to the "gym" because I knew I needed to but frequently skipped days (I always gave myself excuses because I didn't really want to go). Even though I was going to the gym somewhat regularly, I continued to gain weight and my fitness level was not improving. When I started at TFW, I was very skeptical. All sorts of promises but...In the last year, I have dropped my fat (I am now roughly 20% bodyfat - I started close to 30%) and I have gotten a lot stronger. For example, I recently was able to do 305 pounds on the back squat - a year ago I was only able to squat 230 pounds and that wasn't even a full squat). More importantly, my mental attitude to life has changed. I have a deeper belief that I can fight through adversity and it shows in my training and in how I deal with challenges in life outside the gym. I enjoy going to TFW and really feel off when I miss a session. The coaches work with you to help you get better. They offer alternative movements that fit your individual needs (bad shoulder, bad knees, etc.) so you can grow and get better despite physical limitations. One big difference that I have experienced is that students also encourage and help each other in the gym and help with accountability. I recently missed a session because I was ill. I had 3 fellow students send me a note to make sure I was ok. It is a great community for personal growth. Check it out!

Coach Johnny led the kids through 30 minutes of organized play and obstacle courses, followed by 30 minutes of open play time. They all finished tired and sweaty but with huge smiles. The gym also offers two party rooms (one with a single long table and one with two long tables) that they reserve based on the size of your expected group. The rooms have counters with a sink and mini fridge to use and there are lots of coat hooks and a shoe cubby. We thought this was a great option for a kid's birthday party that worked for a variety of ages. We will be back for open gym and probably another birthday party!

Pam and Phil are the best. I have been a client here for a little over a year now and have had…read morenothing but positive experiences. They put a lot of care into all the horses there. This is a hunter/jumper barn with a great lesson program. Private lessons are offered for all skill levels - beginner (never been on a horse) to advanced. They have ponies for small riders and beginner-safe horses. You don't need to have any of your own equipment, as everything is provided. Currently, I'm leasing a 16.3hh thoroughbred. I love him! This is just one of the many opportunities here for advancing your riding skills. I've been riding for 13 years now, and still have much more to work on. Pam is really great about finding local clinics to go to or even just for fun horse-related events in the area. In the past year, I've done the Racine Pony Club Hunter Pace and a Brad Hall clinic. We also go to the IronWorks schooling shows regularly. Meinpferde Farm is super laid back, which I love. Even though the trainers are primarily focus on hunter/jumper training, they welcome boarders of all disciplines. It's a very welcoming place. There's also a large hunt field in the back, where sometimes we ride. There are jumps set up there too, so it's super fun! In addition to lessons and boarding, they have a breeding program. It's a great place to go pony shopping! Their horses are very sweet and eager to learn.

He used to cry every morning going to daycare, begged not to go, and would try to barter for early pick up. Now, he is excited to go and gets upset if I pick him up early. They do a great job keeping him stimulated, moving, structure, being positive and keeping to a schedule so transition back to school will be smoother. I can't say enough positive things I definitely recommend Kicks for any child. But if your child is ADHD like my guy, I strongly recommend you check them out.
