Each Fitness Coach works with one person at a time, or a small group of 2-4 people, guiding and motivating them as well as keeping sharp eyes for form, challenges, and safety. The equipment keeps track of our clients’ progress over time so that you can work with them to achieve the results they’re looking for.
