6-Week Semi-Private Training Sessions: This is where you get the biggest bang for your training dollar, especially if you can't afford 1x1 personal training. These small group sessions consist of 3-4 people, and focus on all elements of training. Each group meets 2x/week for 6 weeks (12 total sessions), and each session is 60 minutes. Each person pays a fixed rate for the 6 weeks. So, if you're interested in working in a dynamic training atmosphere but can't afford 1x1 rates, grab 2 or 3 of your friends or co-workers and train with us together. These sessions can be co-ed. Based on your group, we will determine a training schedule that everyone can commit to. Prices are $300/person for a 3-person group or $240/person for a 4-person group. That boils down to $25 or $20 per training session per person!! Call your friends and come workout together!

1x1 Personal Training Sessions: Individual training sessions are held in our personal studio and outdoors. Sessions are typically 60 minutes in length. 1x1 personal training is offered at a $50 single session rate. We also have bulk packages of 8 sessions available for $360.

1x1 Kettlebell Training Sessions: In addition to the introductory orientation, we also offer 1-hour individual one-on-one kettlebell training sessions. These sessions focus on technique and advanced drills (double kettlebell, flow drills, metabolic conditioning, etc).
