Welcome to Thrive Fitness
At Thrive, your health & well-being are based on 4 pillars:
- Regular exercise and physical activity
- A balanced, nutrient-dense, healthy approach to food and eating
- Coping with stress in a healthy and effective manner
- Adequate rest, recovery and sleep
We are not a big-box gym: we are a boutique-style, professionally operated fitness studio.
We strive to get to know you so we can support you on your journey to elevate your health, improve your performance and achieve what’s important to you.
We walk the walk. We don’t just talk the talk. We take you and your goals and challenges and insecurities seriously and believe that health is an investment, not an expense.
If you’re serious about getting fit, improving your health and changing the way you live, then we look forward to working with you. Or, if you’re not sure how or even if we can help, we hope you’ll contact us and at least ask some questions.
“We are what we repeatedly do.
Excellence, then, is not an Act, but a Habit”
– Aristotle
Our Approach
Despite what numerous books, videos, blogs and “experts” promise in terms of fitness secrets or short cuts, there is no substitute for hard work, proper nutrition and a consistent approach.
It comes down to this: Successful people aren’t content with staying the same. They pursue challenges. With our coaching and training methods, supportive and encouraging environment, combined with your energy and dedication to “show up,” you have everything you need to change your health and fitness and be successful.
What you think is possible might be based on your past idea of fitness or on what you think limits you right now. We recognize getting fit can sometimes be intimidating and it does involve changing how you live. But the reasons it’s “difficult” or “scary” are the same reasons why your potential is also exciting!
We are not like other gyms.
We strive to be different in 2 fundamental ways:
OUR METHODS
- Our coaching and programs are based on sound, proven scientific exercise and functional training practices.
- We then back this up with extensive knowledge and experience of what works and what doesn’t work.
- We don’t use gimmicks, trends, fads or misinformation. These are things that have been in the fitness industry for years. But not at Thrive.
- We don’t get you working out just to sweat. We’re focused on helping you in the long-term to develop your health and fitness.
- We work with all ages, all ability levels and all issues. We see your potential, while acknowledging your limitations and obstacles.
- You don’t have to be fit to get started. Do something today that your future self will thank you for later.
OUR PRINCIPLES
We apply the following principles to everything we do:
- Science – we design workouts based on your body’s anatomy, physiology and function. We take a clinical approach to fitness
- Accountability – we keep you on track, keep you motivated and keep you engaged.
- Safety – we ONLY provide exercises and programs that are safe and based on current and up-to-date training methods.
- Education – We work to help you better understand how to help yourself. We also strive to stay current on developing trends and information as it relates to health and fitness.
- Effectiveness – we take the guess work out of working out. All you do is show up, bring your energy and your challenges, and we do the rest!
- We see “YOU” – we take a holistic approach – exercise, nutrition, sleep & recovery, stress management, as well as your spiritual and emotional well-being.
The only person you are destined to become,
Is the person you decide to be.
Let us help you on your journey.
You deserve to live well and be healthy, strong and fit. Become your best self.
Conquer your challenges and live better!
Let us help you get there!
