Ive been working out since I was 15 years old, and in my 20 years I have gained a lot of knowledge with fitness and nutrition, or so I thought. I never had any real direction or guidance, I sort of learned as I went. It wasnt until I met Paige at Studio 831 that everything changed. I was introduced to Crossfit and Olympic weight lifting and I fell in love. Not only with the programming but the trainers, the attention to detail and how badly they wanted me to improve as much as I did. Ive been on and off with Crossfit for about 8 years, but I really started committing myself about 4 years ago fulltime. This is what really made me proud, this was the first time in all the 20 years that I stopped caring how my body looked, how much I weighed and what people thought. I cared about getting stronger, lifting heavier, and conquering a movement or a lift that was challenging. Not only physically but mentally my inner happiness improved and I over all can say Im a much better person. About a year ago I spoke to one of the head coaches Dylan, and expressed my need to go in a more serious direction. I had my own person goals that I needed help with. As a fulltime worker and mother of toddler twins, I only have so much time in the gym to do that. Dylan listened and started my personal programming. He also educated me on how to obtain those goals nutritionally, how much to eat, what to eat and why. I have always struggled with eating enough and in the beginning found it impossible. But as patient as he is, he had faith that I would be able to do it even though I doubted myself daily. His encouragement and pep talks have always grounded me and brought me back out of my negative bubble into a more positive outlook and to not be so hard on myself. The coaches and athletes at Studio 831 are my second family. Im accepted for who I am, I never ever feel judged or looked down on if I cant do something. I understand that most people who have either never gone to a gym or tried Crossfit have a pretense that they will be laughed at or theyre too over weight to do it. There is not a single person at Studio 831 that has ever laughed or put down another. Its not about looks, its about effort, giving it your best for yourself, and safety. Ive gained a lot through this gym and Ive made amazing friends. These are the people that will not only support you in the gym they will support you in your personal life outside the gym. When looking for a change in your routine (which is why youre reading this) or wanting to be healthier, stronger, and gain more confidence in abilities you didnt even know you had, then Studio 831 is the place. You will be welcomed with open arms, every time you walk in. And as we all know, walking in is the hardest part.

Studio 831 is all you could need in a gym. With excellent trainers, the only reason you wouldnt choose them is if you arent serious about getting fit. They can scale levels easily and tailor your workouts to your specific goals. I started with classes and love/d them, but have been doing individualized coaching and it has far exceeded my expectations, leading me to a great level of fitness. Ive belonged to many high end gyms and have to say that i love our community, neighborhood gym. The people are great, the coaches are great... what else do you need?

The staff is friendly, fun and know what theyre doing. Not only is the staff great but all the other members are too!!!! Its not one of those gyms you walk into and feel awkward and immediately want to turn around. Everyone is so welcoming and friendly. Its an inspiring and awesome environment. I recommend everyone give Studio 831 a try!

I LOVE THIS GYM! The professionalism, kindness, community, and FRIENDS have made me have courage I almost forgotten I had. I get so many encouragements as soon as I walk in. Recently, I did a small group Performance Class. I am a very very shy person and I was expecting the regular Trainer. Fortunately, Dylan welcomed me with open arms and made me feel very comfortable right away! I am always impressed by everyone (trainers & clients)in how I feel part of STUDIO 831 FAMILY! ♡

I highly recommend the person training at Studio 831. They program individualized training that helps you meet specific needs or goals. My coach, Kat Girard, has been successfully helping me rehab a hip issue and Im extremely satisfied with the progress Ive been making. Try out the program!
