Your Burning Questions Answered

Is there a minimum level of fitness required to start training?

Not at all. We modify the exercises to match your level of fitness. As you gain strength, endurance, and experience you’ll progress to more challenging (but appropriate) movements.

Which class is right for me?

Don’t overthink it, and don’t be intimidated. Our classes are designed for all fitness levels, and every movement can be scaled to meet you where you are. The best way to find your fit? Try us out for a week. Come to different classes, see what you enjoy, and find the workouts and schedule that work best for you.

Do I need special clothing or equipment?

Nope! Just wear comfortable clothes that let you move freely, like yoga pants, shorts, or whatever you feel good working out in. Any training, gym, or running shoes will do the trick. As you get into it, you may eventually find yourself wanting a pair of flat-bottomed shoes, but for now, just show up. We provide everything else you need.

Do you have a locker room or shower?

We don’t have a locker room or shower, but we do have a spacious restroom where members can comfortably change before or after class.

I'm not sure I want to commit to a full membership quite yet. Can I just drop in?

Absolutely! If you live in Juneau, try as many classes as you'd like for a whole week. No obligation. See if we are a good fit for you. Get your free one-week trial pass here.

I'm visiting the area. Can I drop in to a class when I'm in town?

You sure can! Please book a drop-in class here. We're looking forward to seeing you.

Where are you located and where do I park?

We are located in the midtown Lemon Creek area near Costco. Parking is alongside the gym. Please do not park in front of neighboring businesses.
