BodyZing

Marilyn’s boot camp classes are simply excellent on all fronts — well thought out routines each day, lots of variety to keep it fun, and most importantly, I am seeing results! I really appreciate that Marilyn is so positive and motivational, especially so early in the mornings! I know it sounds crazy but I actually look forward to waking up early to get to Marilyn’s 6am classes — the best way for me to start my days!

Marilyn’s bootcamps changed my body! I have been a solid runner, dabbled with classes, and eat right and my body NEVER changed. I decided to give Marilyn’s bootcamp a try. For the first two weeks I could not breath without something hurting. Then it slowly went away. I am mildly sore after each workout (which tells me I got a great workout). My body has changed! I now have definition where I could not get it before. Friends and family can’t believe the change. If you want a great workout and to see change in your appearance then you should give it a try.

I started working with Dana last year. I was in so much pain and had so many problems, I couldn’t stand myself anymore. Thanks to Dana I don’t feel that ways anymore.
Between working out and Authentic eating and with the regiment of supplements, I feel GREAT!!! My inflammation has been reduced and I have lost 60 pounds. I have a long way to go, but with Dana’s help I will get there.

By investing only 30 minutes twice a week, I feel healthier and full of energy. Dana makes the class enjoyable and a very good work out. I highly recommend BodyZing!

John has created a tailored program that fits my schedule, my abilities and my desire to becoming healthy. The program continues to evolve as I continue to round into shape. This is a full body workout that promotes both physical and mental health. I’d recommend BodyZing to anyone who wants to get and stay fit in order to enjoy life.

Marilyn is Amazing! She will kick your butt and make you strong while you smile doing it! I’ve been going for a few years now and love it. The variety in each class keeps things challenging and new. It is never boring. She also attracts a nice group of gals and a few guys so the comradery is good!

I had been looking for an awesome bootcamp in Lafayette for a while, and I finally found it! The timing is perfect for me in the morning 6am-6:45am and I always feel great when I leave. Marilyn is so upbeat and inspirational the entire class it keeps me going. So very happy I found this bootcamp!

I’ve been working with John here for a couple of months now, 2x a week. I like the facility/​equipment on hand and John has been great to work with… always very positive and he mixes up our workouts all the time so I never feel like things get stale or boring. I recommend without reservation.

Bodyzing is awesome! Marilyn’s boot camps have changed my life. Her energy is infectious and she is the best trainer I have ever had! Each boot camp is totally different so I’m excited to go everyday and do the new moves. The group is so fun and encouraging. John and Dana are great trainers too. John is super creative and Dana is doing cutting edge supplement/​diet/​testing systems. I love this gym!

Great work going on at this studio! John is my guy and has trained me and my 16 year old daughter. If you want to work HARD and get fit and strong, BodyZing is the spot!

BodyZing is awesome! I’ve been working out with John G for several years and I’m in the best shape of my life! I love the vibe and passion for fitness displayed by John, Marilyn and Dana.

Highly recommended! I trained with John G. for a couple of years and had great results that far exceeded my expectations. He taught me how to train properly, how to eat well for vitality and health, and gave me great habits for life.

John Gillham is a fabulous trainer. He tailored my works out to area’s I wanted to focus on.
He always changed things up; no workout was ever the same. Never boring. I would highly recommend John G as a personal trainer for all levels of fitness.

I Love the trainers at Bodyzing! They truly listen and give you the most beneficial workout for YOUR needs. John, Marilyn, Dana your awesome!

Love Love Love this studio. John G works it out for myself and my crew! Intimate studio space with all the right equipment.

I have been training with Dana Hemmingsen for the past six months. I selected Dana because his focus is on improving overall body performance while providing nutritional recommendations. I have adhered to a personalized (just for me) «work out» program which has dramatically decreased my body fat and increased both upper and lower body muscle strength. I can comfortably perform 10 pushups (from a 1 – 2 baseline)!! My jeans fit better and I have received many compliments for my leg and arm definition. As a middle aged woman, I can honestly say that I am very grateful and appreciate Dana’s knowledge and commitment to helping me stay healthy and fit.

If you are looking for a Personal Trainer that is going to help you with long term healthy living and fitness goals, I highly recommend Dana Hemmingsen at beFIT, Lafayette California. Dana is a personal trainer who makes you feel comfortable while being challenged. He guides you in reaching your fitness goals through a customized work out.
Dana has all the qualities you look for in a personal trainer:

beFIT in Lafayette CA. is a «private gym» it’s either just me or on a rare occasion one other trainer & client working out, This allows for your workouts to be comfortable and never intimidating.
I highly and without hesitation recommend Dana Hemmingsen. His workouts are structured with you in mind, and he wants you to succeed.

After having twins and 6+ years of doing nothing remotely looking like regular exercise, I was a little intimidated to get back to an exercise class. Dana at BeFiT quickly erased any concerns I had after our very first workout. Dana knows what he is doing and provides a highly efficient and effective workout (strength and cardio)-and he is just super nice. He is genuinely interested in helping you achieve your fitness goals and motivates you to get results without pushing you to the point of injury. After every workout, I leave knowing my time was extremely well spent and not a minute wasted. The really great thing is that I look forward to going to class.

Really love this studio – it’s hard work, always varied, and I’ve seen nothing but results for both myself and the other people in the class.
The classes generally last 45 minutes with a good combination of upper body and lower body exercises using weights, kettle bells, TRX, yoga, cardio, resistance bands etc. Marilyn (trainer/​owner) is amazing, she’s incredibly supportive, kind and tough! She’ll tailor every move/​exercise to your level and personal health needs. She is also constantly doing research and checking out all the latest equipment, exercises etc. and she does a fantastic job integrating it all in a 45 minute powerhouse workout.
If you’re looking for a place that promotes healthy living in a supportive environment, this place is perfect. The community of members makes getting up for the workouts totally worth it.

beFiT studio is a destination for mind, body and soul. Marilyn focuses on helping you change your lifestyle and how you approach your goals for fitness and health. Marilyn’s energy is contagious and if you show up to her class 3 – 4 days a week, you WILL see results. The boot camps are fun and easy to fit into your schedule. The group is always motivating and rooting each other along through the class. The classes are fast, challenging and fun — you will always walk out of there glad you came.
