I started the 6 - week challenge with Maia and it has changed my life. No only did it help me with accountability but it also gave me a safe space to work out.I was very nervous to make the change as I have had two knee surgeries and have had back issues as well, but this was the best decision of my life. Allison took the time to have a special class last week to help with form and technique where I learned so much about my body and how to get the most out of my work out. Carol is tough but so encouraging at the same time which makes it feel so cool as you feel yourself getting stronger. Today I worked out with Yuki and it was the most fun I have had while working my butt off. This team is both professional and helpful by consistently going above and beyond.I know that not all 6- week challengers get the results they want, but to be honest you get out of it what you put into it. I have seen people post that they were traveling and “didn’t do so well” but are then surprised when they don’t get the results. It is definitely not always easy to stick to the commitments you make, but this team is there to help you anyway that they can.I HIGHLY recommend them.

I have been coming to The Worx for over a year now and still LOVE it! I started by participating in a 6 week fitness challenge and between the meal plan and 3-4 worxouts per week was able to lose 34lbs and 3% body fat, wow! The results were amazing, but even better is the supportive community I have found there to help me in my fitness journey. The trainers are motivating, no two worxouts are ever the same (although all are challenging -- no chance of getting bored), and the high fives from everyone help keep you going! Plus they really hold me accountable for getting my worxouts in, I need that. I'm definitely staying a Worx member, have gotten my husband and friends to join too, and am so excited to have finally found someplace that worx for me!

Coach Maia and and the other coaches are amazing and helpful.I just completed the 6-week challenge with them and I can guarantee that it is possible if you follow their instructions and work outs.I was able to lose 19 pounds and over 6% body fat in 6 weeks.You also get the support from other people in the gym and that is something I needed in my life.Gym has lot of parking, so that is not an issue.Classes are challenging but not impossible and they will give you alternates so you do you.They have all the equipment needed for each class. I recomend you to go check it out. Thank you Coach Maia and to all the other coaches for your support.

I started running in 2012 to help with weight loss, and combined with healthier eating I lost about 30 pounds, which was close to my weight loss goal, but not quite there. Then a few years later, I joined a gym to work on strength training, while continuing to run. At that gym I had a personal trainer for about 6 months and loved it, but it was too expensive long term. Additionally, while I was gaining muscle, I was still struggling to achieve my goals for weight loss, even though I was regularly exercising 4-5 times per week.The Worx by Maia has helped me achieve those goals! I was in a fitness rut, not gaining weight, but also not losing weight and they offered me something I’d never had before; group classes for strength and cardio, an accountability coach and online forum, and the most important part, a meal plan to follow! I was eating more than I had before the challenge and I was losing fat while gaining muscle.The trainers/coaches and owner (Maia!) are very nice, friendly and helpful! Everyday there are completely different workouts, so no getting bored with the same-old, same-old - no fitness ruts. The trainers are there to help you and they love what they do. And your fellow gym goers – we cheer each other on, pushing us to our fitness limits. Belonging to this gym is like joining a family! For all your fitness goals, it #worx!

I joined The Worx by Maia just over 3 months ago and I am so happy that I did. It’s not just a gym, it is a community. Everyone is so supportive and understanding that everyone is not the same and may have some limitations. “Do you” is a big motto of the gym, which I greatly appreciated having had both knee and shoulder surgery in the past two years. The coaches are always showing modifications and more than happy to work with you so that you do not hurt yourself. Along with the support of everyone, the coaches are great at motivating you and recognizing when you can do a little more. They really pay attention and watch your progress. There have been times I was doubting what I could do, but with their encouragement I realize I could do more than I thought. They also help to motivate with accountability. We just finished Project 3x that promoted coming 3 times a week for 8 weeks. There were great events and raffles along the way. I also really like the owner Maia and coaches make themselves available to you if you need any one on one help or support.I have tried many gyms and classes over the years, but none compare to The Worx by Maia. In 3 months I have seen great improvement in my strength and I have lost almost 20 pounds without starving myself. I look forward to going to class and in the 3 months no 2 classes have been the same. I highly recommend you try out The Worx, you won’t regret it.
