Amazing Support. For years i had looked for a fitness regime or gym which would inspire me and elevate my fitness. Only when i joined Vera in Feb of 2009 did i win! I even had a walking cast for 3 months and managed to work out and see results because the trainers creatively worked with my strengths, and not my limitations. Never have i felt so honored for my individual wins in a "gym" (really, it feels more like a motivational spa). And, to break a sweat AND smile... well, it's a good thing. Thank you, Vera.…
I am not the same person I was when I first walked into Vera.
Being a mom it is often hard to take time and focus on yourself but I finally decided to carve out that time and give myself permission to really focus on taking better care of my overall health and
fitness. Only problem was I had no clue how to do it. A friend introduced me to Vera and I am so thankful she did.
From the second you walk in the door you know its going to be a good experince...you are greeted by the most caring staff and you feel like you are in a spa setting not a big gym (no mirrors, loud music or competive feeling) and its incredibly clean. The trainers are amazing and give 100% to each woman that walks in the door. You can tell they truly care and are very attentive to a holistic approach.
Not only is there an amazing program to go thru on the Kinesis wall, great cardio machines available but you get a chance to work with a very skilled personal trainer. That relationship made all the difference for me- for the first time I felt safe to be vulnerable with my strengths and weaknesses and get the help I have been wanting and needing. Its been six months and I know I am not the same person who first walked into Vera. I feel stronger in all ways and am more in tune with my body than I have ever been. I have finally made a lifestyle change because of all I have learned while working out at Vera. I don't think I could adequately express my gratitude for the impact the trainer I have been working with and the VERA experience has made in my life!
I highly recommend you check out Vera!…
VERA Fitness. I scheduled my fitness session with Vera and had a great workout using the Kinesis machine. It looked easy, but it was challenging. My trainer Karly was patient and willing to make modifications based on my specific health/body issues. She was encouraging without being insincere. They were low pressure about signing up for additional sessions. I felt great after leaving.…
Great Workout Just For Women. I tried Vera Fitness for the first time last night and I was quite impressed. It's in a great location close to Green Lake although parking could be an issue depending on what time of day you go. The Kinesis machines are a butt-kicking workout and the trainers really make sure you're sticking to good form and working your whole body over the course of the session. The cardio machines are top of the line with built-in t.v.s. It truly is a very comfortable place to workout and I'll definitely be returning.…
A place to be challenged, supported, and celebrated.
After a year of low motivation for exercise or healthy eating, I decided to do something about it. I signed up for a free trial at Vera Fitness. I was impressed from my very first visit. The space
is warm and friendly and clean, with nice little touches everywhere (clean towels, Aveda products, ?green? cleanser for equipment, no mirrors, great music and many more). Every client is greeted by name as they enter and it is a truly positive experience. Instead of a competitive atmosphere it feels like a community of women who are all working toward goals of fitness and wellness.
The sessions include a warm-up, a series of resistance exercises that work the whole body (often parts that I don?t think I have ever worked) and a personalized cardio session based on the client?s goals and needs. The personal trainers at Vera are positive, enthusiastic and supportive. They truly are personal trainers in the sense that they emphasize getting to know each client?s personal goals and needs. I have also appreciated the incremental changes advocated by the Vera staff. They have helped me make gradual changes in my exercise and eating habits in a way that feels sustainable.
The hours are very accommodating and the online scheduling makes it easy to make appointments. I highly recommend giving Vera Fitness a try ? it is a challenging, supportive and celebratory place for women of all ages and walks of life to come together and work toward healthier living.…
