I showed up nine months ago with zero experience. Not only have I progressed quickly thanks to the phenomenal coaching, but it's helped me adjust my focus in my professional and personal life for the better. If you're looking to actually change and improve your life, I strongly suggest you step onto the mats with us

Working out and training is fun here at John's Gym! Jasmine and John have created a very welcoming environment that lacks the intimidation factor that can be found at traditional gyms. The instructors are phenomenal and pay attention to each student, training them to improve their form and skill. I'm inspired, reinvigorated and thrilled to be a part of John's Gym!

I have been at John's gym now for about 4 months. John and the front office staff are amazing. They were super flexible to my specific situation and they always greet you with a smile. The coaching staff is great as well as the people who train there. Everyone is so helpful and the utilization of technology to keep everyone informed and in the loop is simple but super effective. My experience here has been nothing but positive.
