I started at Atilis when they opened up in January of this year (2021). I came in with my now trainer Kristin Johnson from Training with Kris. All I can say is that this is by far my favorite gym with my favorite trainer. Nothing is perfect but I'm so thankful that I have a gym that has everything I need with a great trainer and a friendly staff. They have a great attitude from the moment I walk in to the moment I walk out. They have a large variety of machines and equipment along with space! I feel like I can move around and not have someone on top of me.
Then there's my favorite part, training! Thank god for Kris. She is very understanding of our situations with our children. Especially since they no longer offer childcare. When training with her, she lets us have our kids on the sidelines when we have no other choice. She WANTS us to be there no matter what! She wants us to succeed and the group of women/bond we've built there we won't find anywhere else. We never feel uncomfortable or awkward for being in the "wrong place." The best part is that she taught us enough that even on our "off" days, a group of us would meet up to do our own routines!! We are women of all shapes, age, and sizes and this is the place where I could call home! I think I spent more time there than home 🤔.
Last but certainly not least! Yoga with Abella 🙌🏼. I'm blessed to have been able to grow with her in a short period of time! Her yoga classes always left me leaving so grateful, at peace and relaxed. The moves are just the right amount of umf I needed without being too difficult for everyone. She asks questions, she helps us adjust our moves when she sees we're not in the right pose, works with us and has such a great attitude! She's just starting off there but you couldn't tell with the amazing feeling I left with!! She knows how to adjust between beginner and advanced.
It saddened me when I had to move out of state but I'm grateful for Kris's ongoing support and continuing to train and support me...
Read moreI’ve been going to this facility for over 10 years since it was opened by the original owners. Quarantine happened and then Atilis took over. I can absolutely say it’s MUCH better now!! Not only have they have completely changed the feel and energy in the gym but they have added a lot of new equipment like brand new barbell racks, weights & plates. The monthly membership is also cheaper than before. If you know, you know!
My favorite part of the new ownership is having Kris Johnson as a trainer. I’ve been attending her group classes since February and I’ve never been happier. I’ve had several trainers throughout the years and I’ve observed many other trainers throughout the years and no one compares honestly! Her energy, her experience and the way she genuinely lives her life transfers over to her training style and the many results her clients have achieved. The way she pushes us and challenges us every single day is life changing. She is always learning new ways to train our bodies which always keeps us on our toes and pushes us beyond our own limits. Not to mention that she has lost over 100lbs herself and she has competed in body building competitions. She knows what we all go through which makes her...
Read moreI am so glad I got a membership at Atilis! The minute I walked into the gym for the first time, I was greeted with a smile and a warm welcome. Initially, I bought a day pass with the intention of upgrading to a membership if I liked the gym. Needless to say, it far exceeded my expectations. The gym is huge with a nice balance of cardio and weight training equipment. They also have several rooms for classes, stretching, yoga, etc. The front desk staff is super friendly and take the time to answer any questions you might have! Melissa is awesome! She gave me a tour of the entire gym after signing me up, and provided great customer service!
Recently, I started personal training with Kristin (Kris) Johnson! Since the start of my training, she has been nothing but encouraging and positive. She challenges her clients, but its because she wants to see them do well! I am so excited to see where I progress in the next few months. HIGHLY recommend Training with Kris!
Overall, I definitely recommend the Atilis Gym in Galloway. Everyone around you is very motivating and encouraging, especially to those like myself who are relatively new...
