Leah Kraft Seriously happy member and beautiful woman! "Dear Sherri and Crew,
I've thought so many times about writing to you when I'm feeling so good after a great workout and heading home, but for some reason have put it off. Since it's coming upon Thanksgiving, I want to express my sincere thanks to all of you.
I've always been active, but after graduating college I found myself becoming more and more sedentary. I signed up for a membership at a fitness chain (that shall remain nameless!) that was literally five blocks from my house. I figured, if I can't get motivated to go five blocks, then I must be seriously lazy! After a couple weeks, I found myself DREADING walking into that gym. I hated everything about it! The lack of customer service, the warehouse feel, no towel service! Ugh!
Then, miraculously I got a mail flier from NW Women's Fitness. That day I came to your beautiful gym and couldn't believe that such a fine workout facility existed! Lori was so kind, humorous and welcoming when I signed up for a membership. I was concerned about the price hike compared to said crappy gym, but I thought to myself "if I actually come here often it will be worth it!" It's been almost 2 years and I can't think of a better way to spend my time and money.
I absolutely love the classes and the teachers. Jamie gets me so motivated, I don't think I have ever sweat harder than in her cycling class. I leave the gym feeling so satisfied and happy that I devoted time to making myself healthy, I even don't mind the muscle soreness the next day. I attended a step class a couple weeks ago that was devoted to a member who had recently passed away and was blown away by the thoughtfulness that Sherri and the staff showed.
The front desk staff is always so nice to interact with, Sarah has always offered kindness and humor to me when I've been having a rough day and everyone is always ready with a smile. Kathy has taught me numerous invaluable skills in the weight room, so I will never be intimidated walking into a weight room now and that is saying a lot!
This past year has been a really difficult one for me, and I have always found a peaceful escape at NWWF. I used to run in and out of my old gym, but today I stayed a 40 minutes after a class to sit in the light room with magazines! YES! I LOVE MAGAZINES! I'm so glad I don't have to spend money on them anymore, because I read them there (maybe I am even saving money by belonging to NWWF!) Even though I have been struggling with employment and money, I will never feel bad about spending money on my gym membership because it makes me feel nothing but awesome!
I realize this is rambling by now, but I freaking love NW Women's Fitness and every single person that works there. Thank you all for all that you do!
Sincerely,
Leah Kraft"

The physical appearance of the facility is aesthetically pleasing and comfortable. If you want to enjoy life to the fullest, look younger than you are, and learn how to keep growing in healthy ways, you've got to check this place out! I wouldn't go anywhere else.
