Black Tusk Athletics

Anne is always amazing! Since I have arthritis, she is very particular about aligning me properly during every exercise, carefully adjusting my posture and cuing me to make subtle changes that protect my joints. She is constantly checking in throughout the session to see exactly how my back, knees, and ankles are feeling, which makes me feel completely supported and safe. I never feel like she is pressuring me beyond my limit; instead, she offers gentle encouragement and stays very, very positive, which keeps me motivated even on tough days. Her attention to detail and genuine care have made every workout with Black Tusk Athletics not just effective but truly enjoyable. I’ve never had a better trainer!

I enjoy the community aspect - the people are excellent. The workouts are challenging and push me in all the right ways.

Nelson taught us today, always good and the workout was intense type 2 fun. Love my BTA family!

Anne is very knowledgeable and extremely encouraging. Her positive attitude is almost infectious. I began training to address losing muscle mass with aging. As an unexpected added bonus my chronic back pain has resolved. Anne is truly the best. As one of the owners of Black Tusk I also have to compliment her for the overall positive atmosphere and family feeling when it comes to other coaches as well as fellow clients. Black Tusk is a great place to train at. Everyone here is positive and friendly.

My workout this morning at Black Tusk Athletics was challenging and good. The routine pushed me with a mix of strength and cardio exercises that kept my heart rate up but never felt overwhelming. Laine is great - he takes the time to explain each movement clearly, breaking down the form so I understood exactly what to do. Throughout the workout, he gave feedback by watching my technique closely and helped me adjust when needed, making sure I was doing the exercises safely and effectively. He is also very encouraging and supportive, offering motivating words that kept me going even when the sets got tough. That combination of clear guidance and positive energy made the whole session rewarding and something I look forward to coming back for.
