We Are Honored to be Helping Our Members Live Life to the Fullest

Become our next success story

I have seen great results. My ultimate goal was 50 lbs lost before 50. I got very near to that and I feel more fit, I feel more healthy, I feel more ALIVE, I feel just a lot better

Maureen, 53yrs

DONE QUITTING ON HERSELF

It really translates to being able to pick up my grandchildren and run around with them, lift things up onto the top shelf that I couldn’t before, and go up and down the stairs without having to hold onto the handrails

Carol, 66yrs

REBUILDING STRENGTH AFTER CANCER

I had a rotator cuff tear with a surgery that didn't go as well as I had hoped. From where I started 3 years ago to what I can do today, what a huge difference. I no longer have shoulder pain and I can do everything I want to do at home and in my life without any limitations or hesitation

Carol, 56yrs

FEELING STRONG AFTER INJURY & SURGERY

I feel charged up! My daughter has asked me now to start running with her (she didn’t before because she thought I’d probably have a heart attack) and now we have done a bunch of 5K and 10K runs

BEING THE ACTIVE DAD HE WANTS TO BE

My son was getting married, I was retired, and we were planning a bucket-list type trip to Spain. But I was feeling old, tired, gaining weight and I was starting to dread not fitting my dress for the wedding and that I wouldn't be able to walk the 20km a day in Spain. I had a bad experience at another gym... at Movimento things were so much different.

I have been going to Movimento for almost 2 years now which is the longest I have ever stayed with a fitness routine. As a women in her 60s, I wanted to improve my strength and endurance so that I could enjoy my retirement. I have done that and more. The staff are very supportive and provide individual routines that are challenging and fun and have pushed me to try things I would have never done. Love the intimate atmosphere and camaraderie here. Glad I found you Movimento!

I have been working with Juan and he has been helping me get ready while I await elective back surgery so that I am in the best shape possible. Really takes into account my limitations but pushes right to the limit. A year ago, I could have not imagined the things that I am currently doing! I will be walking the hills of Ireland with my wife and cousins in the summer of 2023 whether the surgery happens or not!

In my early 40's I decided I was going to get active again, started playing indoor soccer, and really injured myself because I had basically left myself go. I gave Movimento a try and after 5 months I am down 25 lbs. I hadn't run on a treadmill, or run at all for that fact, in several years and I am back to running 10 minutes straight on a treadmill which is a big milestone for me.

FROM SEDENTARY TO BACK IN SHAPE

As a physiotherapist I appreciate that I can send my patients here and I know that they're well looked after. I really value the sessions here because they plan everything out for you, they tell you what you are going to do, they watch you, they correct you and they grow with you each day. They make sure it's safe, comfortable and the best thing for you and you're never left to your own devices.

Rachel

LEADING EDGE PHYSIOTHERAPIST

I was actually kind of ashamed of how sedentary I had become and how weak I felt so that was my motivation to try to get healthier. I feel significantly stronger in the 2 yrs that I've been here. My body is able to do the things that I want to do and I am able to play sports again without the fear of injury. Most importantly I feel better mentally. I talk about how great my experience is here to anyone that will listen!

Elena

NO LONGER FEARING INJURY

Before I called Movimento I felt old. Going upstairs I was out of breath, I had aches and pains, I would get injured easily, I seemed to have a cold all the time, and I was not very self confident. Now I feel amazing! I just got back from a vacation in the States - we went hiking and I could out hike everyone I was with even those 10 years younger than me.

Amanda, 54yrs

FEELING YOUNGER THAN EVER

Here at Movimento we focus on improving your overall health and wellbeing...

But that doesn't mean that you won't transform your body in the process!

Fitness to me, before I had kids, was a quick fix. It wasn't until I had kids that I realized I had to make a longterm lifestyle change. In my first 6 months I dropped nearly 80 lbs and I was thrilled. After my second child the benefits of working out for my mental health far outweighed the immediate weight loss and I have committed to training 3x every week since then.

Natasha

DONE FOCUSING JUST ON THE QUICK FIX

Before I came I suffered hugely from depression, low-self confidence, was never really happy with where I was body-wise and with life in general. Now I'm down 27 lbs, I have far more confidence and I'm fitting clothes I haven't fit into in years. This year we went and did a shark dive which I never would have done 2 years ago because I wouldn't have been able to put my butt in a wetsuit and I just wouldn't have had the lung capacity or the confidence to do that.

Jen

LIVING A MORE ACTIVE LIFESTYLE

For the first I was over 200 lbs and it was a real wake up call. I had tried so many places and all the fad diets. I'm hypothyroid and I was always told "you can't lose the weight" and I just wasn't comfortable living with that any more. I feel so much better since starting. I have a ton more energy, I sleep better at night, I'm down 4 pant sizes & 30 lbs and I feel more outgoing and back to how I used to be before I gained the weight.

Cathy

PROUD TO BE AN ACTIVE ROLE MODEL

You feel stronger on the inside, you feel stronger on the outside, and you're not doing it for yourself, you're doing it for the people around you who depend on your for your support. Here we are all on the same journey towards becoming healthy and stronger. "Today I will do what others won't so tomorrow I can do what others can't" and that is a real goal because every day each of us is getting older so let's just make the best of it.

Peggy & Vivian

SISTERS STAYING ACTIVE TOGETHER

For the first time in decades I am focusing on being their for myself and that is why I am here. Gyms or "gym people" was not a culture I knew... I felt like a complete outsider. It's not something I EVER did and it was not ever part of my life. Before you know it you are addicted to coming here and you bounce out of here feeling like a million dollars. And then you realize that you could actually be the inspiration for someone else that is still sitting at home and thinking that this something that they can't do.

Lucy, 51 yrs

HAPPY SHE TOOK THAT FIRST STEP

One of the best things about coming to Movimento has been the structure that it's really added to making this a part of my daily routine. Fitness isn't an optional part of having a really busy and full life. Coming here week after week and applying strategies to how I eat and how I workout has really help me gain a lot of confidence in both coming to the gym and it being health and fit overall.

Ken

FUELING HIS BUSY LIFE

I didn't feel apprehensive at all coming here because my physiotherapist at Summit Physio had great things to say about this place. I wanted to do it right and have good training instead of just doing it on my own. Within 4-5 months after starting I felt much more confident about what I could do with my injured shoulder from the rehabilitation resistance training we were doing. I lost about 35 lbs in a year and I can't say enough about how much better I was feeling. Everybody here is intent on doing well and the community so supportive.

Andrew

THRIVING WITHOUT SHOULDER PAIN

We spent a lot of time with our kids and we really focused on their health and wellbeing and making sure they got lots of activity but we forgot about ourselves. It's hard to take care of other eventually if you are not taking take of yourself too. Having come together to the gym has really helped us out. It gives us time to spend together. Even though that might not sound like a romantic outing at least it's a guarantee that we do get to spend some time together a few times a week.

Randy & Carmela

LIVING AN ACTIVE LIFESTYLE TOGETHER

One of the big advantages that I think is so important is that we exercise here by appointment. By having those appointments I come, I virtually never miss, where as with a regular gym you're putting it off to the next day and soon not going at all. It's an older crowd and you'll find the people are more similar to yourself. The whole atmosphere is just not as intimidating compared to a lot of other gyms.

Shawn, 59yrs

LOVES THE PRIVATE STUDIO

I love this place. The team is so knowledgeable, they're welcoming, they're friendly, they push you without turning it into a bootcamp. They really make you want to do your best. I have a confidence, and a strength, and a pride in myself that I didn't have before.

Cathy, 56yrs

FEELING STRONG AND IN CONTROL

Doing it on my own was like being in a boat with one oar. You imagine that everyone is going to be tiny and that there will be mirrors all over the place and that you'll have to look at yourself doing the exercises... it's very intimidating...but this place is none of those things. All of the exercises that I do here translate into real life. The workouts here are nothing like the workouts you do when you just show up at a gym and do something on your own.

Kathy, 61yrs
