ABOUTus
Who are we?bFit Studio is not a gym or health club! We are a fitness studio that offers personal training, group training, weight management services for individuals, groups, and corporate wellness programs.
What makes us special?
Individualized attention and innovative instruction is our primary focus. We will keep group sizes small to ensure a high level of quality and a personal touch. You won't be lost in class. Trainers know your name and assist you to ensure you're getting a safe, fun, and challenging workout for your fitness level! No problem if you're feeling out of shape or have never been to a class. We'll help you ease into your workouts and help you with proper technique. For you avid exercisers, you'll be challenged to do more. No contracts, no hidden costs, just results!
We offer weight management services either face to face or by way of the internet. We can actually work with clients who live anywhere and they don't have to make a trip to our office if their schedule doesn't allow them to!
The programs that we offer outside a clinical setting are the same meal planning and nutrition programs that are used by some medical practices, educational institutions and corporate wellness programs.
We offer nearly 50 nutritional programs that address the needs of weightloss, fitness and performance, disease prevention, childhood obesity, and many more. Along with your physician we may address medical weight loss. We will help you every step of the way starting with an assessment and goal setting. We focus on behavior change that allows you to maintain an eating lifestyle that works for you!
