I am not sure where to start with a review honestly. My family began coming to movement when my daughter was recovering from an ACL and meniscus injury. She has been at Movement for about a year, working mostly with Mason one on one in the return to sport program and has recently transitioned back to group sessions.  Words cannot even begin to express my thanks and gratitude for the entire staff at Movement Fitness. I have watched my daughter go through and grow through the most difficult thing she has faced in her life so far and to somewhere along the way find purpose in it and come out stronger and as a better person. She couldn’t have done it without the support system that she has found at Movement to help her through both the mental and physical recovery.  Through that all, my son also went through a knee surgery and to see the confidence that he went into his surgery with was astounding.  Mason was right there through my sons recovery from day 1.

As far as the adult group training, I began attending movement at the same time as my daughter simply out of convenience.  Little did I know what I was stepping into.  The environment and programming is truly one of a kind.  So many people compare their gym to being family, which is 100% true here. However, this gym is more than that. Movement is the first gym that I have been to in the Rockford area in the past 20 years where everyone is truly welcome to the family. You can attend a group session at any time of day and every single member here is so incredibly kind and welcoming. There are no gym clicks here. This gym is more than family…it’s home.  That’s a huge accreditation to the owners and staff for having the morals and ethics that create that kind of family.

My son has been part of the athlete program for two years and has grown significantly during this time as far as measurable growth. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and caring.

I personally have started my own fitness journey here. I have been living a sedentary lifestyle they are easing me into exercise with an exceptional understanding of the journey I will be on. Preparation is given to each session to individually cater to each person.

I can’t say enough good things about Movement Fitness or the staff.  They are always super knowledgeable and encouraging, and generally fun to be around.  When I came to Movement, I had recently suffered a herniated disc in my
lower back, and the personalized program the trainers created for me has helped me not only to heal but also to gain strength without risking further injury.  I feel better than I have in years and it’s due mainly to my time at Movement. Investing in my long term fitness and health through participation in the movement program has been the best choice I’ve made in years.

The team at Movement really takes a personal and positive approach to help each member grow stronger and healthier, even in a group workout. I’ve never been comfortable with resistance training but the team here takes the thinking out of it for me, instructing me on technique, tracking my progress and challenging me to keep pushing myself.   i love that the workouts  are designed for what’s best for me and my abilities and consider any previous injuries or restrictions (that most of us have)  As a result…this is the first time I have ever been so consistent with my workouts!! I’m so glad I found a gym where it’s fun to go and everyone feels like family.

I’ve been going here for around 8 years now, I think that tells you enough. Not only have they built up my athletic ability, they have also guided me through rehab when necessary. Without Movement I would not love lifting as much as I do or be as knowledgeable in the subject. It’s a place to workout but it also educates you on how to move your body well. You’re not just thrown into a class and told to do a kettle bell swing. You are an individual that receives clear explanation, instruction and correction in how to do a kettle bell swing. Then you are pushed to be your best. Form is a massive deal here and I would not know as much or be able to control my body as well as I do without this place. I would not be the athlete I am today without Movement. I have strength, speed and, arguably most importantly, stability. Apart from all that the atmosphere is so lively and fun. I never fail to smile when I walk through the doors.

Justin and his team at Movement Fitness helped me in achieving my dream of playing professional soccer by significantly helping me improve as an athlete during the four months I trained with them. Their sessions were consistently high-level, pushing me daily to become a better athlete physically and mentally. The atmosphere at Movement Fitness is incredible, they made lifting something I love to do again!  I am grateful for the opportunity to have trained with such a dedicated team !!!

Movement Fitness seems to have mastered the art of personal training, creating an environment where fitness goals are not just met but exceeded. Their trainers, with their unmatched professionalism and infectious enthusiasm, turn each workout into a session of fun and energy. The semi-personal training approach is a stroke of genius, offering a sweet spot between personalized coaching and the dynamic energy of a group setting. It's impressive how they tailor each exercise to individual needs while fostering a strong sense of community. This place isn't just a gym; it's a sanctuary for those looking to transform their lives through fitness...safely. The flexibility in scheduling is the cherry on top, ensuring that even the busiest bees can find time to sweat it out. Movement Fitness isn't just changing bodies; it's changing lives. It's a testament to the power of a supportive fitness community and the transformative nature of a well-crafted workout regimen.
