Signature Small Group Training

Why Signature Training (Small Group Training)?

Small group training offers an affordable path for clients to take advantage of a trainer’s expertise – while keeping the fun and competitiveness of a group dynamic. Groups generally never exceed eight participants which allows for one-on one instruction when needed, but still offers a high – quality workout with additional motivation from our fellow group members.

Workouts are tailored to different equipment, purpose, and more, but are still designed to provide significant benefits. You have several options as you discover what works for you. Try a class, make new friends, connect with a new trainer, and find what motivates you! You’ll love the results!

Benefits of Signature Training

• Improve your fitness in cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, flexibility and body composition

• Small groups (5-15 people) are led by a certified personal trainer to assure proper technique

• In a group setting, on-on-one attention is recognized for individual improvement

• Easily modify workouts to customize sessions as needed, but always with safety the primary concern

• Use of functional, non-traditional training techniques not found in most general fitness classes (TRX, ViPR, Olympic Barbells, Assault Bikes, Ski Ergs, Concept 2 Rowers, etc)

• High energy and motivation promotes a challenging, yet fun workout environment

• Experience social fitness, be inspired by groupmates, and get challenged (and healthy) all in one!

Assisted Stretch

Mobility and flexibility are critical components of physical performance and equally important to your overall health. Simply “stretching” may not me enough or as effective as the techniques trainers can offer. In a series of 15-minute sessions, our trainer can employ a variety of partner-assisted stretching and foam rolling techniques to maximize your results. Benefits may include:

• Reduced arthritic symptoms

• Improved posture and range of motion

• Decreased deterioration of joints

• Reduced risk of pain (low back, joints, muscles)

• Improved muscle coordination and overall movement

H.E.L.P (Healthy Eating Lifestyle Plan) Group Coaching All Ages

Most likely you’ve tried dieting before and it didn’t work; at least not in the long term. H.E.L.P is different than those typical diet plans that routinely fail you and at best leave you with no exit strategy should you happen to reach your goals. In this 8-week program you’ll get the support you deserve and learn how to follow a nutrition plan that fits your lifestyle and gets you results even when life gets crazy. Focus groups will meet weekly virtually (sessions will be recorded for viewing convenience) to discuss all things nutrition. This helpful, structured format provides you with motivation, empowerment, action plans, tips, strategies, as well as the opportunity for reflection and learning.
