I workout at the Transformation Center because it is a community that allows me to become stronger. The trainers create unique workouts and demonstrate the activities. I have some hip limitations and each trainer welcomes me to ask about modifications, if I feel a move will not be comfortable for me. The workouts are never exactly the same which I enjoy. Give it a try and get stronger with me.

I joined the Transformation Center 6 weeks ago and what took me so long. I am active, but have never done weight training. A game changer. Hitting the golf ball further and more importantly strengthening my back and core. Hit a milestone this Fall. I could clean out my perennial beds without getting a sore back. Big thanks to the amazing trainers/owners who have helped me each class with proper form and technique. Fit over 50. AND fabulous smoothies.

Eight years ago, I would have never seen myself the way I do now. I have learned how to trust others but especially women, how to believe in myself and that the support and love of a community that lifts you up is the greatest gift. I am proud of my evolution and growth which I attribute to the TC. I wouldn’t be who I am today without taking a leap of faith and I am so glad that I did.

I had never been an athlete, never really worked out. But by the time I reached 50 I was not happy with my body. It wasn’t working the same, I was tired and I couldn’t keep up a lot of the time. I was also about 30-50 lbs overweight which was affecting me mentally. I read a few things about the TC and decided to give it a try. Well almost 8 years later I am still there and it and the people there are a huge part of my life. My lifestyle has not changed dramatically but I do find myself making better food choices. I love the workouts because I have so much more energy during the days that I workout. I have lost 30 lbs and know that I could loose more if I put my mind to it. If I shared with my community at the TC that I wished to do that they would support me in so many ways it’s hard to explain. I didn’t mean to go on so long but if this helps just one person like it helped me then it was worth it😊

I am a newbie. I have only had 4 sessions as a Transformation Center member but from day 1 I have already reaped the rewards. I am a senior with the motivation to keep pushing beyond my 88 years. I found The Transformation Center on Facebook and with hundreds of advertisers boasting their wears what caught my eye was their, I'll call it pitch. "Senior program, focusing on strength of muscles and balance". Now what senior could not be curious about these exact issues we face? I immediately contacted them and had a complementary workout the very next day. After a not too easy and somewhat vigorous routine I walked away feeling rejuvenated. Yes, the next day I felt it but in my mind feeling it ment to me it was working. And so it has. Only four sessions into this program my balance has improved which I notice while walking and my strength and stamina are allowing me to increase my length of routines. After saying all this I must comment on the staff. They are there for me. So helpful, so understanding and so very concerned about my well being to the point I look forward to my next session.

This truly is a transformation center! My husband and I enjoy the community of the center, the trainer's knowledge/monitoring/coaching/challenging & creative workouts/encouragement/and on and on. The center is about the whole body wellness. No matter where you are in your fitness journey, you will fit here!

The facility has the classes and equipment that fill my needs. But, it’s the people that make the difference. From the owners, trainers, front desk staff, and my fellow boot campers. The friendships that have developed over the years motivates me to attend and leads to a better me.

I joined TC about a month ago & am really glad I did. It is a very welcoming community & the over 50 group is perfect for me. I have always been active & have had major life changes that slowed me down, therefore looking for a gym where I “fit in”. Thx to all the staff & fellow older members for helping motivate & include me.

Great mix of cardio and strength training. Trainers work with you wherever your at. They also do a nice job teaching about nutrition.

The Transformation Center is unlike any other gym, and is so much more than a gym. It's a community first, health and fitness center second. It's the only fitness center I've ever felt good about attending. I've been part of the community for the past 10 years (!!) and it's helped me get into the best shape of my life, and maintain mental and physical health even throughout this crazy pandemic.
The owners and staff care deeply for their clients and go above and beyond to meet people where they are, understand their needs, and help them achieve their personal health and fitness goals. And in addition to fitness, they offer some amazing resources in terms of healthy eating, joint health and mobility, and mindset. They are very holistic in their approach--it's much more than exercise alone.
Most importantly, it's a safe place to show up, regardless of your age, weight, experience or fitness level. You'll never be judged. Everyone is on their own health journey and is so respectful and supportive of that. If you are looking for a supportive environment to improve your health, give it a try. You won't regret it!

The TC has been a lifeline for me -- mind, body, and spirit! I joined in spring 2021 with the goal of losing weight plus improving my mobility, flexibility, and strength. With the support of the amazing trainers, I've accomplished more than I ever expected, especially after never having a regular fitness routine in my entire adult life. And the other members are fantastic -- I've formed some wonderful friendships that I know will endure for years. I've also been highly appreciative of their safety-mindedness, for both COVID and using proper form for exercise. The TC is a truly supportive community with fantastic wrap-around services!

I love the Transformation Center community. I look forward to seeing the friends I have made working out each morning. We all support and push each other to achieve more. Each workout is unique and focuses on the entire body. I have lost fat and gained muscle. Trainers not only focus on physical health but nutrition and mental well being. Truly a whole body and whole life focus. And, most importantly, trainers will meet you where you are. So start, then continue and your life will improve.

I have been going to the Transformation Center for many years .... too many to count! I love the trainers, they are so professional and most certainly want you to succeed. I also love the community feeling the Transformation Center creates ... helps with accountability, for sticking with it, which I need. I have made great friends since joining TC. I also enjoy that we workout in small groups so the trainer knows each of our limits and when to push us to the next level. I highly recommend the TC, I will never work out anywhere else. Come join us!!

I have been a member of the Transformation Center for 2.5 years. The trainers are great! They provide awesome workouts for diverse fitness levels. In addition, to physical fitness, they promote nutritional fitness and offer a genuine sense of community. There are multiple options for workouts everyday at the Center or remote (Zoom). And the post workout smoothies are an awesome reward for a great workout!
