What Members Are Saying

“I’m feeling sore but the pride I have for showing up surpasses the short term pain. It’s time for me to work on me. Thanks for providing a safe, trusting venue tailored for me!”

“I am so happy I joined you wonderful ladies! It is exactly what I needed and I look forward to being there! Thank you for giving me a safe space and being so AMAZING!”

If you have tried to do it all on your own and it has not stuck, that does not mean something is wrong with you. Most people do better with the right plan, coaching, and environment. That is what Small Group Private Training is built to provide.

What Is Small Group Private Training?

Small Group Private Training is coach-led training in a small, consistent group, usually 3–6 people. Each session is guided by a professional coach who adjusts the workout to your goals, your current fitness level, and any limitations so you can progress safely and confidently.

Think of it as a middle ground between large group classes and 1-on-1 coaching. You get more personalization than a typical class, more accountability than trying to do it alone, and more affordability than full private training.

Who Small Group Private Training Is Best For

This program is a strong fit for adults who want a gym experience that feels supportive, personalized, and sustainable.

• You want more coaching attention than a typical group class gives you.
• You like the idea of personal training, but want something more social and often more budget-friendly.
• You feel intimidated by bigger classes or do not want a high-pressure environment.
• You are getting back into fitness after inconsistency, time off, injury, or overwhelm.
• You want strength training that helps you feel stronger and more capable without beating you up.
• You want accountability and consistency without feeling lost in a crowd.

In short, if you have been thinking, “I just need the right environment,” this may be exactly what you have been looking for.

Why Some Adults Do Better Here Than In Bigger Classes

Large group training can be a great fit for the right person. But for many busy adults and parents, more intensity and more variation are not always what helps them stay consistent.

Sometimes what actually helps is:

• a calmer, more controlled setting
• more coaching and movement feedback
• a program that builds week to week
• less intimidation
• a format that feels easier to stick with in real life

That is why Small Group Private Training works so well for people who want support, structure, and clear progress without needing to jump into a large class environment right away.

Small Group Private Training vs. Personal Training vs. Group Classes

Small Group Private Training

• More individualized coaching than large group classes
• Small crew energy and accountability
• Great for consistency, confidence, and sustainable strength
• A strong fit for busy adults who want more support without full 1-on-1 pricing

Personal Training

• The most customized option
• Best for people who need privacy, flexibility, or highly individualized coaching
• Often the best fit for more significant injuries, pain, or schedule complexity

Group Training

• Higher-energy community training
• Great for people who enjoy the larger class environment and can attend consistently
• Works best for those who like variety, momentum, and group energy

If you are not sure which is best, start with a conversation and we will help you choose the right fit.

Why This Works

Most people do not struggle because they do not care. They struggle because they are trying to piece everything together alone.

What usually helps is:

• a simple plan that matches real life
• coaching that removes guesswork
• accountability that keeps momentum going
• a supportive environment where they feel safe showing up

That is exactly what Small Group Private Training is designed to provide.
