It was my first day but Andrew went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable in the new environment. He also too great care in ensuring that I knew every exercise and how it all worked. I may have been on the fence to join, but if everyone is half as good as Andrew; sign me up

I did not have a coach today but all of the Islander coaches are some of the best I’ve ever met, friendly, professional, motivating…just excellent. And the gym is outstanding. All of the best equipment, great classes, flexible schedule, open all the time. Perfect for anyone who wants to stay healthy.

I just wanted to give a quick shout out to Coach Matt. Yesterday was my first full day back after 3 months ( I only did a 1-day trial before), and i had no idea how to perform most of the warm-up movement. But Coach Matt was super patient, he took the time to teach me the right form and body mechanic, and did not pressure me to hit the target reps. Instead, he focused on helping me feel confident with the techniques first. He checked on me often, corrected my form when needed, and made sure I was comfortable the whole time. Honestly, I really appreciated the support, it made coming back way less intimidating. Big thanks to Coach Matt.
