Personal Training Options
One-on-One Training
Whether you prefer land-based exercise or water workouts, our certified Personal Trainers are ready to craft a tailor-made plan that fits your lifestyle. New to personal training? Get started with 4 personalized 1-on-1 sessions for just $120.
Semi-Private Training
A trainer will program workouts for a group of 2-3 people. This is easiest with groups with similar goals but trainers can adapt and modify programs to meet the needs of all in your group. We want you to have fun, meet others and feel supported by other members, your friends, or family!
Small Group Training Classes
Enjoy challenging and unique workouts in a group setting that fit into your schedule. Group training is with four or more participants, as well as a Personal Trainer. Specialized group training classes include TRX Suspension Training, Bootcamp, High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), and more!
