Our Fitness Coaches enhance their knowledge and experience yearly through continuing education. We feel - if BEST is our standard - we need to stay current and relevant!

Our Coaches have varying levels of experience, but T2BB maintains a high level of expectation for the training we provide, holding our Team accountable.

Each Coach has a different style, offers different cues and sees different things - enabling our members more success in reaching their goals. The more eyes on you - the more efficient your training will be!
