Looking for a family instead of big box gym? You have arrived!Previously, I was a member of a large corporate gym for 12+ years and never felt like I was a real "part" of it. I was a nameless face lost in a sea of spandex. It was extremely easy to loose motivation and desire to make myself better.Personal attention, encouragement and support are what I need to succeed...and John's Gym was the beacon I had been in search of for so many years!I joined in January 2013, after the birth of my first child, and I've still not looked back. At John's Gym they are there for YOU. They want you to succeed...period. Coach Henry Marshall has been a godsend in my training and has unlocked a personal passion into the world of kettlebell sport I never knew existed.At this very moment, I am almost 8 months pregnant with baby #2 and am HEALTHIER and STRONGER than I've been in a over a decade!This place is home to me and I feel so lucky to be a part of their family. Thank you John's Gym! You are my beacon in a sea of spandex...

I had never joined a gym before because why would I pay money to run on a treadmill when I have a free one at my apartment complex?Well, what attracted me to John's Gym was the fact that they offered something different. They offered so many different types of classes that it was difficult to choose which one I would try first!I decided to try Cardio Boxing with Carey and I was immediately hooked! The class was the perfect size and between the maze of over 30 kickboxing bags and Carey's encouragement (and jokes) I left the gym feeling pretty worked out. I had a total blast and couldn't wait to go back!I then tried Samy's classes and talk about training! If you want to slim down and tone up his class will get you there in no time flat. He has a great group of regulars that will help motivate and encourage you to "KEEP GOING! ONE MORE ROUND"! It's awesome. Samy will help you lift that heavier kettle bell by letting you know you're stronger than you think. He will also cut you a break if you're just a little more tired than usual that day. Samy knows how to train, that's for sure.Sadly, I had to temporarily quit my membership because not only did I work full time but I was also going to school at night.Once the semester was over though, I went straight back! I just recently signed up again and my first class was back with Samy. Whew! Once again my legs and abs are sore (in a very good way). I forgot those muscles were even there!I love John's Gym! They are like family and they know my name when I come through the door! How cool is that!?!If you want a total body workout with the option of different types of workouts, go to John's Gym. Not only are they affordable (important) but you will feel comfortable and at home. With so many classes to chose from, you'll never get bored and you will never hit that wall by doing the same workout over and over again. After your first class you be back online looking to see which class you'll take next. I promise you, you will love John's Gym.I sure do.

I haven't felt this fit in years! I never want to go to bust my butt at John's Gym at first, but after I'm there I feel so much better by the end of the day. And the classes are usually small enough to receive quality attention every time. Another great thing about it is the atmosphere. Some gyms can be somewhat uninviting, but these guys just want to work out and learn some cool things. The instruction is great as well- Samy in particular is extremely detail-oriented! Thanks John's Gym!

I just started working out here about 3 weeks ago and have absolutely fallen in love! Between the cardio boxing, kickboxing, and zumba, I have already noticed a difference. The instructors are so nice and really make extreme sweating fun! I leave there with a smile on my face everytime and look forward to my next workout! You definitely will not regret becoming a part of this family!

If you want to learn Jiu Jitsu this is the spot. I'm not sure why anyone would train anywhere else. Rodrigo Cabral is the best in town, and he has the credentials to back up my claim. John's gym is a fantastic facility with a family atmosphere. No matter what you want to do they provide the best.

Amazing!!! I absolutely love Johns Gym!! There is no other place like this gym.. I started Johns Gym in January 2012. I was nervous of going in, I thought for sure it was just going to be another Gym trying to get you on a 1 or 2yr membership and take your money every month.. Was I Wrong. Jesika was the trainer for Cardio Boxing the day I went.. I will never forget what I mentioned to her during the workout.. (You seemed so Nice).. I joined that same day I loved it so much.. I've been going ever since. All of the Cardio Kickboxing trainers Jesika, Janell, and Megan are PHENOMENAL!! The Zumba class is so much fun!! I also have taken one of Samy's Muay Thai women's class and that will be the next step up from Cardio kickboxing.. I have taken a couple of Women's Self Defense Class with Rodrigo and man oh man he really takes it the next level.. I will be trying BJJ here soon. Since I started Johns Gym I've changed in many ways, from being more confident about myself, I've lost weight, my attitude changed, and I'm not scared to try new things.. The atmosphere is wonderful, you can't find amazing, nice, funny, and motivated people like the ones that go workout at Johns Gym.. They are for sure my support system!! I look forward to getting off work and making it to the gym.. Johns Gym is my Happy Hour, why because JOHNS GYM IS THE PLACE TO BE!!! To John and all the Trainers, THANK YOU from the bottom of heart for Being such WONDERFUL, AMAZING, and CREATIVE Trainers!!! Much Love To each and every single one of ya :)I forgot to mention the most important thing daycare don't let Johns Gym not having a daycare be the reason you don't join.. Because while you are working out your kiddos can be working out as well.. Yes, they do offer kid boxing classes.. Carey the guy who teaches the kids is just a big kid himself.. I don't know one kid that takes is class that don't like him.. He is full of energy, and ready to teach your kiddos.. Even if your kid don't take his class Johns still allows the kids to go sit and watch you workout.. My daughter loves going she has made freinds there.. :)

John's Gym could just be the greatest place on the planet. Do you want to punch and kick things? Do you want to get punched and kicked (and maybe even like it)? Then this is the place for you! John personally cares about your success and it shows as he is always around to answer questions. The instruction is top notch and their Muay Thai training will absolutely destroy you (in the best kind of way!) If you want to get fit in the minimum amount of time this gym is the place. If you watch your diet and do 3+ workouts a week there will literally be nothing stopping you from meeting your goals and exceeding your expectations.

Wow love going to John's Gym. I know I'm a woman but love the Ju jitsu Classes never had a workout like that before. Felt great to get a work out and learn self defense at the same time. Just a great experience all the way around and would recommend it to everyone. If you are around the area and thinking about any kind of work out stop in and ask for John he’s a great guy to talk to and way cute too. ;-)

I work in IT, so I sit down a lot. To be honest, I was in pitiful shape, 200lb @ 27% body fat, smoker, drinker and altogether unhappy. I'd tried so many gyms/programs before but there was something different about this place. I love to go there, I dream of my next workout at night, this gym has become my second home and I have become addicted to fitness. I've quit smoking, I'm losing fat and gaining muscle like crazy and completely reworked my lifestyle. If it wasn't for John's gym, I'd still be the same old couch potato. Thanks John's Gym!
