What is Personal Training?
Personal training generally is a one-on-one fitness coaching relationship between a certified fitness professional and an individual seeking personalized guidance in their exercise routine. The primary goal of personal training is to help clients achieve specific fitness objectives, whether it be weight loss, muscle building, improved athletic performance, or overall health and wellness.
A personal trainer typically assesses the client’s current fitness level, health status, and goals to design a customized workout plan. They provide instruction on proper exercise techniques, create a structured and progressive workout routine, and offer guidance on nutrition and lifestyle choices that complement the fitness goals.
Personal trainers also play a motivational and supportive role, helping clients stay committed to their fitness journey. The level of personalization and attention to detail distinguishes personal training from group fitness classes or independent workouts, as the trainer can adapt the program to the individual’s needs, monitor progress, and make adjustments as necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
What is the difference between 1:1 Private and Semi-Private Training?
We offer regularly scheduled semi-private strength and Pilates classes, which have a capacity of four students to maintain the personalized approach that personal training provides, while giving our students the opportunity to bond with others in the community. Private training offers more undivided attention from our trainers along with increased motivation to commit to your health, and maximum personalization, while semi-private training offers similar benefits with the added opportunity to enjoy movement with others while still receiving more focused attention than in a large group setting.
Are these sessions all about weight training or do they include Yoga or Pilates?
Private training at our studio comes in many forms, from strength training to Pilates to yoga. Whichever format interests you, we will always go through the process of matching you with a trainer that fits your goals, personality, and availability.
What are the benefits of 1:1 & Semi-Private as compared to Group?
Our group classes allow us to host formats such as Absolute Barre, Ujam, and more in a larger capacity so that we may reach more students. These classes are open to at least 10 people per session, with a maximum of 25 if the format is compatible with a large group. The benefits include boosted morale and energy levels, more community building opportunities, consistency in scheduled offerings, and access to a variety of class styles and teachers.
Am I always with the same trainer or does it vary based on time or day?
We carefully match individuals with trainers who not only align with their availability but also possess expertise addressing the unique goals of each participant. Once paired, participants can expect consistency in their training experience with the same knowledgeable and supportive trainer. This approach fosters a strong trainer-participant relationship, allowing for a deeper understanding of individual needs, preferences, and progress.
How often should I see a personal trainer?
We recommend working with a trainer for two to three months initially to get grounded in a training regime. We’ll guide you into a routine, help you master your form and build the confidence to keep going on your own. We often see students who will work with a trainer for a few months, then workout and take classes on their own for many months, later coming back for some new routines, a boost in motivation and a nudge to level up.
Are 1:1 & Semi-Private exclusive or can you mix in Group too?
Semi-private, 1-on-1 sessions and group fitness offer distinct styles, each carrying unique benefits for individuals. The personalized focus of 1-on-1 sessions allows for tailored guidance, addressing specific needs and goals. On the other hand, group fitness fosters a dynamic environment, promoting camaraderie and motivation. Striking a balance between the two can yield comprehensive results, combining the precision of individualized training with the energy and support of a group setting for a holistic and rewarding fitness journey.
Can I start in Group and move to Personal Training or vise-versa?
Of course! Once working with a trainer you should gain more knowledge of movement allowing you to safely return to class. You may also take a class and decide you’d like to learn more and go deeper into the methods behind every movement.
What does NASM and AFAA Approved mean?
What certifications do your trainers and instructors have?
All of our instructors and trainers are fully certified, with many of them holding multiple certifications. In general, our trainers hold NASM - CPTs and our instructors hold AFAA (Group Fitness), Balanced Body (Pilates) and Yoga Alliance (Yoga) certifications. These certifications are prepared to design exercise and conditioning programs that are scientifically valid and based on clinical evidence. They provide the guidance to help our students achieve their personal health, fitness and performance goals via the implementation of exercise and mindfulness programs along with suggested lifestyle modifications.
Why do we use the word “Student”?
Anchored in the art of yoga, we believe we are all on a learning journey. At no stage of life have we mastered being. We are constantly learning and in such, always starting with a growth mindset as a student of life.
