Our Philosophy

At illuminate gym our philosophy comes from a more personal approach to fitness. For years huge corporate gyms have sprung up all over the country selling memberships to those they hope will not return.  The dues are paid up front because they count on a large percentage of clients not utilizing the facility for the duration of their membership term.   That said, large corporate gyms aren't evil.  They are merely designed to attract a broad client base that is then released to the gym floor to make sense of the complex array of weight training and cardio equipment that makes up a modern gym. 

Without the comprehensive direction and motivation of a certified personal trainer most people wander through the gym spending an hour or more to get 20 minutes of actual workout time.  Frustration sets in and they rarely attain the fitness goals they are attempting to reach and paying for.  This is why many people end up watching these gyms automatically deduct their monthly dues from their credit cards without receiving anything. However, they never complain because, “I’ll be back in the gym next week…I think…” Sound familiar?

At illuminate gym we put as much effort into maintaining our gym as we do to addressing your fitness needs.  Our gyms are well maintained and frequently updated to include the latest fitness equipment.  Many of the smaller personal training facilities that are popping up all over the country sacrifice gym culture by sequestering their clients in private rooms. Our spacious yet cozy gyms are designed to allow in natural light to foster a harmonious environment for both our clients and trainers.  We believe that creating a healthy gym culture is as important as anything we do.
