Testimonials

"Prior to serenity i had been going to another exercise program but felt i was not progressing. I joined serenity in dec 2006. my husband gave me a gift certificate for a personal trainer as a chrismas gift. I stated out on the pilates machine as my flexability and balance were poor. I also attended some of the pilates and yoga classes.

I imporved my flexibility and balance. in march of 2008 I had the opportunity to go to alaska for the 2008 iditarod sled dog races. prior to going to anchorage, we spent 3 days at chena hot springs. one day was devoted to learning how to run a team of sled dogs. I was 10 years older than my companions and al ittle nervous about 12 miles with th esled.

My instructor said, "not to worry" and told me to hop in the sled. after about 1/2 mile she stopped the team and told me to get out of th esled. "its your turn"< she said. she reviewed the brake, said "dont let go of the dogs", hopped into the sled and we were off. "Go girl go", she said. Heart in my mouth, we finished the 11 miles. i was surprised at the strength in my legs, thighs, shoulders and arms.

I know if K had not faithfully attended the gym 3 to 4 times a week, i would never have had the strength, balance and endurance to do it. i am 71 years young and alread have my deposit in for alaska in 2009. "

I welcome the opportunity to share the very positive experience that my serenity fitness clubs memebership provides. I have been a member since its inception two years ago, having been previously a member of the womens club for three years. I am in my late 70's and have long been itnerested in doing my best to remain physically fit. in july 2007 I fell and broke my hip, which required hip replacement.

My doctor was very direct and advised me that the fact that i have been physically active and a regular attendee at a fitness gym had an effecton what treatment would be best. that included hip replacement with the most recent state of the art technology. I thoroughly enjoy my membership in the club and exercise five days a week. I have been working with an excellent trainer, juilie nagger. i began my training with her five yeras ago at the womens club. julie is extremely knowledgeable and gives me training on a bi-weekly basis.

She teaches and emphasizes what i can do on my own. she has been very helpful in my rehabilitation after my surgery. the entire staff at the club are pleasant, helpful and maintains the facility in excellent condition. the owner, Amie Ruiz is a talented business woman who personally manages the club and provides a positive environment for all the members. i heartily recommend the serenity fitness club.
