OPEX KURA | Personal Training & Lifestyle Coaching

I've been working out at OPEX Kura with Melissa as my coach since early June of this year and really love the format: personal trainer, floor coaches, working sessions, monthly check-ins. But I was most pleased to find a reasonably diverse group of gym goers: good number of female clients and some variety of ages and sizes. I (65F, overweight, very self conscious) thought I would hate weight/strength training and the whole going-to-the-gym thing, but I don't. I've come to enjoy my sessions and how I feel physically after a workout. I can already see huge progress in what I can do in and out of the gym. I give Melissa a lot of credit for that and am expecting to continue for the long term.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this gym! I have been going to Opex Kura for the last four years and Melissa has coached me through pregnancies and my postpartum journeys. I can honestly say at 40, I feel better than I did in my 20s. I almost began to cry this week, when finding that my body fat is the lowest it has ever been and that I gained four pounds of muscle, in just the last two months. I never though this would be possible, after three children. The biggest highlight for me is the sustainability. I never feel drained or become injured and look forward to each gym session. As a gym goer most of my adult life and trying it all (group fitness, other personal trainers), I can say I have become stronger, fitter and much more in tuned with my body and what it needs, through the guidance of Melissa and Opex Kura. I think it is a testament of how many long term members they have and it is such a welcoming gym and community. I encourage anyone looking for sustainable change in themselves to join. You certainly will not regret it!

As a senior woman in my early 70s, I was intimidated by the thought of going to gym since I had back injuries in the past. Recommend by my son, I started strength training at OPEX KURA a year ago. Mellisa, the owner and head coach at OPEX, carefully designed a personalized program with her extensive knowledge and experience to support me functionally – core balance, resistance, mobility and strength. She guided me patiently and carefully in using proper form and weight to avoid injuries. She is very personable and truly cares. In a few weeks, I started gaining muscles and having fun work out at the gym. Now I can handle more challenging house chores at home with confidence. The only regret is that I should have started 10 years ago at OPEX!
