What do I like best about Energetix Fitness?

I love the camaraderie of all the ladies and the instructor Kathy! I love working hard with the group of ladies and all accomplishing the same thing, and then going home to start the day.

What is your favorite location and why?

Vienna Woods is my favorite.  I love the redwoods, the trails with the lush landscape, the hills, and the Twisted Grove that was like the cathedral in Henry Cowell. It is a magical place that feels like it is out of a children’s book. Peaceful!

Question 1- What I like most about Energetix Outdoor Fitness Training is that it has developed me into a runner, which I never thought I would be. When I first started in 2010, I could barely run 1/2 mile. Now I am up to 6 1/2 miles and training to go farther!

Question 2- My favorite location is definitely Fall Creek. The trail runs along the creek and you are surrounded by mountains and trees. It’s really beautiful and challenging as well.

October Client of Month

Anne has been attending Energetix Fitness classes since February 2009.

1) What do you like best about Energetix Fitness outdoor circuit training?
I love that Energetix Fitness classes are outdoors! Another benefit which is important to me is Kathy’s energizing personality which translates into a very positive group dynamic… all of the above helps us to happily climb every mountain!

2) What is your favorite location and why?
I prefer the forest locations for the beauty of the trees, but also because these woods are so close to us and connected! There are many new things that I have learned in class about the area as well. For example, I discovered that DeLaveaga had a second access through Prospect Heights, that Santa Cruz Gardens was another path into Chaminade and that Nisene Marks could be reached from a neighborhood behind Cabrillo College!

The September Client of the Month is Judy Tsuchitani.

Judy first attended class in October of 2004 the first year Energetix Fitness began!

1) What do you like best about Energetix Fitness Outdoor Circuit Training?

The fact that I really enjoy taking the class and leave knowing I had the best workout!  There’s nothing like exercising in the beautiful outdoors amongst a group of inspiring people, and having fun while doing it!

2) What is your favorite location and why?

I don’t have just one favorite location, but I do like the beach & forest locations the best.  The ocean and big trees create a peaceful ambiance for the tough exercises that Kathy has us do.  The scenery is the reward for running in deep sand and up steep trails.  It’s an awesome way to start the day!

August Client of the Month

Jenny first started working out with Energetix Fitness in March of 2009. When asked why she likes outdoor circuit training these are her responses…

What do you like best about Energetix Fitness Outdoor Circuit Training?

Outdoor fitness training is the only exercise I’ve ever been able to stick with because I love being outdoors because I hate sweaty-smelling gyms! I love the camaraderie and motivation I feeling I get from working out in a group.  Energetix is extra special because we go to so many different, beautiful locations.  It was a great way to learn about the natural beauty in the area when I first moved here.  The range of ages and fitness levels makes it easy to fit in, and Kathy is a great instructor, tough but lots of fun!

What is your favorite location and why?

I cannot pick just one favorite location because the variety in the locations and in the varied types of training we do at the different locations is part of what I like best about Energetix Fitness!

Susie has been attending class with Energetix Fitness since August 2008!

What do you like best about outdoor circuit training?  It’s always an adventure. Kathy is a remarkable teacher and coach, the other women are so supportive, plus you feel like an invincible Amazon afterward! We live in paradise— the redwoods and the beaches never fail to inspire. Who wouldn’t want to start their day like this?

What is your favorite location and why? The year before I started Energetix Fitness, my family was invited to a picnic at Seacliff State Beach, which involved schlepping our beach supplies down a looooong wooden staircase to the shore.

I huffed and puffed to my family, “What maniac would pick a location like this? I’m never coming here again!” I could barely drag myself back up to the parking lot.

That staircase is the Seacliff State Beach Steps, and now I can climb them— quick-step, skip-a-step, and sumo-squats— seven times in one session. Near dawn, when we watch the sunrise, it’s nothing short of spectacular.

Wendy has been attending classes since June 2008!

1. What do you like most about Energetix Fitness – outdoor circuit training?
Being outdoors in the sunshine, fog, pouring rain, mud, and enjoying a combination of fitness, friends, exploration, and scenery all before going to my office job!

2. What is your favorite location and why?
All the locations are great. I love Wilder, Nisene Marks, Henry Cowell, but mostly the newer location behind Scotts Valley High School. It has a mix of scenery, a variety in terrain, and a Wicken element, combined with an ‘outdoorsy’ Christian flavor.
