A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to be apart of a medical mission in Northern Haiti. It was a lifelong dream of mine to do this. My experience was incredible. The people that I worked with and cared for were all inspiring and gracious. It was hard and fulfilling work. The last day of our trip was a "free day."we took an excursion to the Citadel which is a fortress on top of mountain outside the city of Cap Haitien. It is the highest point in Haiti. We drove halfway of mountain then hiked the remaining 3000 feet to the top. It was a very steep hike.... We started out as a group and a few steps into it one of the doctors with us was talked into using a horse to take her to the top.... So off she went ahead of us...we kept climbing and climbing.... There were other groups around us and all of us had the option of bowing out at anytime and getting on a horse for $10 to take us to the top. I had no intention of taking a horse. I wanted to do it myself.... Besides what would Kim think if she knew I had given up? Uh uh... No way. Im climbing.I am drenched in sweat. The sun is beating down upon me. I no longer see my group ahead of me, they have gone ahead of me. I am struggling but know I have to keep going. I start to feel bad thinking of everyone waiting for me at the top to begin the tour of the citadel... The young 30 year old residents bounding to the top, I felt like a jerk, but I kept on climbing and never stopped. There were horses available for me to hire the whole way up, and I really almost did. I turned the corner and there was Doctor Pogany, the lady that had taken the horse and she yelled you WIN!!! Youre the first one up! I didnt believe her... But she was right. The rest of the group came around the bend 10 minutes later!!! I had beat everyone one to the top!! All I thought about was WOW! Wait until I tell Kim!! I was really proud. Kim has inspired me to push myself and be fit inside and out. I am so greatful. I BELIEVE IN ACTIVE LIFE FITNESS!!!

I just wanted to relate what a great all-around job ALF does. At the beginning, Kim went over my diet and checked out my physical strengths/lacks in a simple "checkup". From there, at least two different routines were set up to alternate. Between those two workouts, the help & oversight in a fun atmosphere, and truly keeping to my proper diet, I lost 5 lbs in a matter of weeks...and I am generally active already!! While theyre watchful while you workout, you can just let them know if you feel youre able for more after the first 2-3 workouts. As I always find, you feel more energetic overall when exercising regularly! How much better in a bright, new facility!

I love working with Kim and Marty at Active Life Fitness. This is not just your ordinary gym. Kim and Marty are innovative, caring, and focused on your health, strength and flexibility. They really care about fitness for your lifetime. They are constantly learning about the best ways to help you become the best you can be. They have a positive attitude and its reflected in the clients who come to work with them. I cannot say enough good things about Kim and Marty. I have been working with Marty for almost 13 years. I highly recommend training with them at Active Life Fitness.

Kim and Marty are awesome trainers! I met them about five years ago (I was training with Kim only at the time) and because of Kims guidance and support, I have lost about 70 pounds and kept it off. To this day, there is no one Id rather trust when it comes to my fitness program. I love the environment they have created at Active Life Fitness. It feels like home and you know you are in good hands whenever you walk in the door! I highly recommend ALF to anyone who wants knowledgeable and motivating trainers.
