I highly recommend Baker’s. The workouts are challenging but unlike a lot of other studios, the instructors will correct your form to make sure you that are doing the exercises the right way and getting more out of the class. I also love the great music and family atmosphere. Everyone is very encouraging.

I have attended group fitness classes at Baker Unified Fitness for over a year, and these have become the core of my physical and mental wellness routine. Baker and the other members of the training team are supportive and encouraging. Since classes are small, the trainers are able to become deeply in tune with and accommodating of client needs. The gym has a wonderful community of clients as well, and I enjoy working out in this positive environment. I would recommend BUF to anyone interested in giving it a try, no matter where you are at in your fitness journey!

Baker Unified Fitness (BUF) has been training my middle school age son for six months now and his fitness has improved tremendously, also his body has transformed into a slimmer and toned physique! I give my highest recommendation for choosing BUF. I give a personal shootout to owner Baker and trainer Miles for the great job of not only physically training my son but the positive coaching and mentoring experience they provide so he can mentally mature into a balanced athlete!

I love Baker Unified Fitness! I go to the group classes. Richard Baker is so welcoming, motivating, and HIGHLY knowledgable. He knows each person's abilities, and caters to each person while promoting progress. I appreciate that he shows me what kind of modifications I can do if necessary. After the first time I went to his class, he knew my name, what kind of weights I needed and what kind of exercises I can do. His gym has all the different kinds of equipment you would need, and he always switches up the exercises. Great vibes all around.

Been going for 7 months or so. Staff is great, friendly, and will push you. It’s a small gym so we get to know each other (trainers and fellow clients) so it’s welcoming and fun to show up every morning at the crack of dawn. There are no microphones and megaphones thank goodness. Just great music and encouraging voices. Every workout with each trainer is different so you’ll never feel bored with the same workout. Sign ups are easy and the owner, Baker, is accommodating with any rescheduling needs.
