We also offer special rates if you want to train with a partner or a small group of friends.
Andrew: "Men and women are built very different, and should be trained as such. My knowledge and experience within the training world has allowed me to understand how to optimally train both successfully and safely. My specialty is weight training, however I am hardly limited to it. Hard work and dedication are the only ways to reach your physical goals. Allow me to help you achieve that by exposing you to a variety of workouts and techniques that will both educate you and reshape your body into the physique that you desire."
Andrew works evenings at the St. John's club. <send email>

Christie: "Fitness has literally saved my life. I have found that both Parkinson's and Breast Cancer have opened doors for me AND inspired me to "USE IT OR LOSE IT." My goal is simply to take what I have learned to help others facing similar challenges: Facing memory loss (defiantly), learning coping strategies, incorporating mental exercises and multitasking with physical activities to challenge the fitness of our minds and bodies, and learning from each person I meet. Special training and certifications include: Pilates, Functional Fitness, Balance, Aquatics, Vocal coaching, Zumba Gold, Rehabilitation, and OHSU's Sensorimotor Agility and Proprioception Training with an emphasis on training clients with Parkinsons." <send email>
Catherine: "I have been a certified fitness specialist since 1994, helping kids and adults ages 8-88 lead healthier lives. As a company member of Imago Theatre’s FROGZ, I maintained a rugged touring schedule and had the opportunity to teach physical theater workshops for high school and college students across the country. A background in contemporary dance has given me knowledge and experience in alignment, balance, core strengthening and release techniques. In addition to my training in sports and exercise science, I have been a student of yoga since I was a kid and started teaching hatha yoga in 1996."
Catherine is very busy. She teaches 11 classes each week at the St. John's club. A little FYI - Catherine has been with us since January of 1998. <send email>

DeShawn: "I classify my style of training as Spartan Training. Spartan Training is characterized by stern discipline and rigorously simple exercises. It is a calculated mix of traditional and novel strength and conditioning exercises; which incorporates metabolic conditioning, high intensity interval training, odd-object lifting and much more. Spartan Training produces fast and measurable results whether you're seeking muscle mass and definition, looking to boost performance in a particular sport/activity, or just to lose weight and tone up. It takes the best of all training methods and puts them into a truly comprehensive routine that's goal specific. My client base includes all ages and levels of fitness. I train both men and women successfully and safely. Work-outs are scaled to your individual level and ability. Spartan Training promotes a stand-and-deliver, do-or-die fitness culture that tolerates no complaining or excuse-making."

We have two ways to tan - on your back, or on your feet. Both clubs offer stand-up tanning in HEX II tanning booths. These are equipped with 46 high-output lamps that bring tanning sessions down to less than 12 minutes.
If you prefer to have a more leisurely experience, the St. John's club also has a Soltron XS-35 lay-down bed. This bed has 36 bulbs for a very even tan. It is a very comfortable place to spend a warm 20 minutes.
We have two different ways to price our tans - if you are a gym member, or if you are not. It is cheaper if you become a gym member.
Unlimited tanning packages are based on a monthly eft. There are no refunds or exchanges on tanning packages
Have your young children entertained while you enjoy the club. Art projects, puppet shows, and old-fashioned pretending are just some of the things they can do while you workout. This service is only available at the St. John's club.
