Kate Newson has to been so helpful in the recovery part of my fitness journey. She has been able to show me stretches, perform dry needling and provide tips on ways to stay safe when exercising to avoid injury. The convenience of being able to get an appointment in the same facility where you work out makes it so convenient. I have already purchased my second package of sessions to be able to continue working with Kate.

Everything you need in a fitness community. Wes is an extremely knowledgeable & motivating trainer, he'll meet you where you're at & help you set & exceed your goals. Well-equipped & beautiful new facility, with a built-in accountability group of welcoming members to support you. The live zoom & recorded workouts are a great option if you can't make an in-person class, and having the 24hour option is a great bonus.

Love the concept providing fitness and physical therapy services. Get well, stay well! And a kids area to boot! Wesley is very professional and my son loved him from the speed camps he has provided. He is a part of the community and I'm excited for him and his sister Kate in this awesome new facility!

I don’t think there are enough words to describe how Wes changes our lives with this type of gym. Classes are fun but he is mindful of each and every person and their strengths and weaknesses. He pushes you every chance he gets and he makes you feel comfortable. This gym feels like HOME. I love the people I’ve come to know here and sincerely enjoy working out because of this community. I really like the variety of works outs as well. No two days are ever the same!

EQ Fitness is not just a gym. It is a family, where we all work hard while motivating each other to become our best selves. No work out is ever the same which I love because I never get board. I joined this gym because I believe Wes is one of the best trainers out there. He brings the energy and really cares about his clients and it shows. There are also family days where your little can come and work out with you, sip and paint nights and all kinds of fun team building activities. We all have become a family and would love for you to join us!

Wes, Kate and the team at EQ are incredible! The community is amazing and it is because of the effort Wes and Kate have put into making the gym feel like a family! Every workout if different and Wes always gives modifications (to make the movement easier or harder). I used Kate for dry needing on my back and it has made a world of a difference! Highly recommend EQ!

I cannot say enough good things about EQ Fitness and Physical Therapy. Wes (head trainer) and Kate (DPT) are both amazing and so knowledgeable. Wes is amazingly encouraging and supportive. Every single workout is challenging but so much fun! The facility is gorgeous and uses top of the line equipment. The environment is very supportive and feels like family! I highly recommend EQ Fitness and Physical Therapy.

Took a group class here and loved it! My friend had to convince me to go because I usually hate group workouts. The way the class is structured was perfect for someone who is like me and wants to work out alone. Most of the class you are on your own and when you are in a group it's fun....no pressure, not competing, etc.I loved the music and got a major sweat on! Great workout!

I can not begin to describe this place. Family, fun, friendship, fitness. The best trainer in town! Wes Newsom.. No words to describe how good this guy is. Positive, professional and personable. I'm not in my 20s, 30s or 40s. I have never been judged for being "older". My "old" body is getting better everyday from the work outs, but my soul is being fed with the community and atmosphere of this place. Come check it out! You will not be disappointed!!
