Gumsaba Fitness Boot Camp

I can't imagine life without Gumsaba in it. Not only am I in the best shape I've ever been in, I've made wonderful friends. It's so much more than just a workout, it's a community in the best sense.

Coach Michelle not only creates a different and challenging workout every day, she's always sharing her knowledge about healthy living and is a glowing example of a healthy lifestyle. Coach Briana is a joy to work with and such an inspiration, burpees are (almost) fun with her. She's got a way of motivating you to do your best. Workouts are a mix of running, weights, TRX, ab work, cardio exercises with special attention paid to a proper warmup and stretching at the end of class. It never gets boring.

I love the supportive, non-competitive atmosphere. People of all fitness levels are welcome and the coaches are experts at modifying any exercise to accommodate anyone and are attentive to each individual's problem areas (bad knee, sore shoulder, etc.). Exercising outside (rain or shine!) is so much nicer than in the recycled, stale air of a gym. It's the best way to start the day!

Be ready to be sore, very sore, but be prepared for one of the best experiences of your life!

I am a newbie to Gumsaba in Moraga and I am hooked. Coaches Brianna and Michelle are the best. They are constantly encouraging everyone, ensuring proper form, and tailoring the workout to ones ability. Not to mention the other women in the class who have been so supportive and welcoming. Sometime I feel like I am going to die ....that I can't do it, but there is always someone there to encourage me along. Before you know it, the hour is done and I feel so good. Getting stronger every day :)

Stronger, Thinner, Calmer...
This is my mantra and I am living it thanks to Gumsaba Boot Camp. Gumsaba 3x week makes the sun shine brighter, the breeze blow cooler and the days go smoother.
There is something very empowering about getting better as you get older - and Gumsaba Boot Camp will make it happen with the support of wonderful coaches and fabulous workout buddies!

Gumsaba rocks! Coach Michelle and Brianna are amazing, supportive, knowledgeable and wonderful people! I've never enjoyed fitness so much - the classes are varied and you also meet a group of other amazing and fun gals in the class.

I love Gumsaba for so many reasons

1. Amazing work out - and it's different every time so you never get bored. The coaches are professional and really know what they are doing .They help you with your form and encourage you along, as wel as support modifications if needed. It truly is great for every fitness level.

2. I never liked fitness classes like aerobics because I always felt like I had to be super coordinated to remember all of the dance moves - this is nothing like that!

3. It's so close to my house and since you pre-pay for the month I don't even think about whether I'm going or not - it's just part of my routine.

4. There are several options for make up classes if you miss one in Lafayette and Walnut creek

4. There is no way I would get this good of a workout on my own at a gym - I love being in an outdoor class environment and the coaches keep you motivated as well as the other bootcampers

5. If it rains there are options where you can work out with coverage.

6. Everyone is friendly and supportive
