Vera Fitness - Women's Wellness Studio

I've been recommending Vera Fitness to all my friends ever since I had my first session there almost 6 months back! Here are a few of the reasons why I keep going back..
1). Great trainers who are extremely friendly & supportive
2). Very cool equipment
3). Personalized attention
4). Not overwhelming in any way as some gyms tend to be for me
5). Online scheduling
I look forward to my sessions there each time & wish I could find time to go more often!
The only thing I wish was different is the cancellation policy. You need to cancel your appt. 24 hrs ahead of time & for me, especially with a 2 yr old around, things sometimes come up where I cannot give that much notice but need to cancel.

Well, what can I say?! I never considered myself super sporty and now feel stronger and healthier than I have even felt. There are many things I like about Vera Fitness -
1. I got results
2. The trainers are supportive & really care about you.
3. Attention to overall wellness - nutrition, stretching & cardio
4. Good vibe there
5. Cool, relaxing decor.
I know that going to Vera has improved my physical fitness and when I go I am doing something so good for my health.

This place is amazing! I don't go as often as I should...
I love the semi-private experience, I love the trainers (every one of them is fantastic), I love the program. One of the best parts for me is that I am in and out in 45 minutes. I really don't enjoy working out, and I especially don't like gyms. This program is fun, and although it is hard I actually kind of have a good time.

Pros: service, ambience
Cons: parking

Let me just start by saying that I really don't like gyms or personal trainers at gyms...Which is why I LOVE LOVE LOVE Vera Fitness. It's not a gym but a wellness studio and the trainers are there not to hound you (although, don't get me wrong, they will kick your butt into gear), they are there to SUPPORT you. I have been going to Vera for just over 6 weeks and I'm hooked. I am actually enjoying working out and (shocker) I look forward to my sessions. Everyone there is extremely friendly and seems genuinely interested in my progress. I highly recommend Vera for anyone who struggles to stay motivated (as I did).

Pros: Trainers are extremely supportive and tailor the session to your needs and goals
Cons: Nutrition is still on your own...so slip-ups are easy to have

It's very hard not to like Vera Fitness: the trainers are great, you feel relaxed from the spa-like ambience, and get a fabulous work out. To be clear, it's not a spa, it's a bona fide training center with a unique training system called Kinesis. The trainers are caring and nurturing but also push you to your limit (and beyond!) And if you're like me, my body adjusts to any workout routine within a few weeks - no worry here because they are constantly mixing it up. If I had more money, I would be going to Vera Fitness everyday! (each session is $40)

The trainers are great and make you feel welcome and motivate you during your workout. Somehow it is a very nurturing and butt kicking experience at the same time. Each workout might include 4 people with one trainer - which everyone probably prefers 1:1 attention, I found having a multiple people not a problem, and with the right group it can be energizing.

Vera Fitness also has a very nice shower facility so it would be easy to go there, workout, and get ready for work, a date, etc. Add bonuses - two incredible stretching machines, cardio machines that allow you to watch TV on the machine or plug-in an ipod, and heart rate monitors. The only con I can think of is the parking - sometimes it can be tough when greenlake is busy on a nice day. But it is worth it and I'm always so happy to be there.

Pros: Great staff, cutting edge equipment, and motivating environment
Cons: Parking
