I joined Culture Fitness when it first opened a little more than a year ago, and it turned out to be a great decision. I’ve been doing CrossFit for around nine years now, and I’ve worked out at and dropped in to many gyms in different areas over that timeframe - however, Culture has thus proven to be a superior option in a number of ways.
For starters, Tia is an amazing and incredibly knowledgable coach who has a competitive background. At the same time, she is equally skilled at working with those that have never participated in group fitness before - or any kind of fitness, really - as she is with experienced athletes. Over the past year, she has helped me get over the proverbial hump in a number of areas where I’ve struggled for some time, in fact, largely by making subtle changes or just giving specific cues.
This would be reason enough to join Culture, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the fact that it’s also a fun, upbeat experience each and every day. We have athletes of every skill level and every age group ranging from beginners to competitors, and yet, everyone is treated the same. It’s a truly positive and fun environment, though also a challenging one - as it should be - and that’s precisely what makes Culture a...
Read moreTia was great at reintroducing me to group classes. This is the first time I've been back to a gym since Mar 2020 and I've been slowly getting back into regaining the strength and endurance I lost over the last couple of years. The warmups and exercises are an excellent way to spend an hour of your day, and the exercises can be scaled back to your skill set and capabilities - including catering to injuries or other ailments.
Moreover, Tia's use of technology has helped improve the overall experience from class scheduling to logging workouts, and even the InBody experience to track your progress. I use them all and I'm thankful I reached out to schedule my first free class which got me hooked!
I wouldn't consider this crossfit, but there are movements that can be complex and different from other places (think competition-style lifts like cleans, jerks, snatches, etc). But have no fear, Tia walks through all the movements one step at a time, and you have the option to pick the weight you're most comfortable and capable of while Tia watches your form to prevent injury.
I've been attending for a little over a month now and I look forward to many more...
Read moreThis class has been exactly what I've needed for years, but I never would've found this out if I didn't SHOW UP for that first class. I've just finished my third week, and I'm already reaping the benefits of this specific training. I'll be the first to say that my perception of this gym was like many others before I attended this class. I refused to attend because of the atmosphere portrayed by others or other media forms. However, through this class, I've found individuals from all walks of life at different fitness points, all with the same goal. You'll quickly feel the family atmosphere within this gym and how this has led to better accountability within myself to want not miss a class. Overall, I'm happy with Culture...
