Personal Training


What is Personal Training?

Personal Training is the science of teaching a client how to move their body correctly and efficiently in every exercise and movement. Personal trainers also help clients customize their workouts to their goals and needs so they can maximize their individual potential!


Benefits of working with a Personal Trainer include:

  • Customizing an exercise program to meet the client's personal fitness goals
  • Assisting clients with general conditioning, weight loss, weight gain and improvement of their overall health and fitness
  • Providing clients with accountability and motivation in workouts
  • Providing weight and cardiovascular training instruction
  • Increasing a client's knowledge about fitness and workout routines

  3. Appointment cancellation: Cancellations must be made 24 hours in advance in order to reschedule the session. If the cancellation is less than 24 hours the appointment will not be reimbursed/re-scheduled. The trainer is required to wait 15 minutes for the client to show up for the scheduled appointment. If the client fails to show up for the scheduled appointment, the appointment and fee(s) will be forfeited.

For example, if the client is 15 minutes late and arrives for the appointment the session will only be 45 minutes.
