Testimonials
See what some of our valued club members are saying about us:
| "Genesis Boxing and Fitness is more than your typical gym. There is a
sense of family and pride in seeing you reach your fitness goals. It
is such a great experience when you get to have fun while working out
and getting in shape. I am grateful to be a part of this club and I
have met awesome people through Genesis." -Candace Regan aka "Kick" |
| "I know when I attend a boxercise class I'm going to get an amazing
workout! Rick has a way of pushing you beyond your limits with
encouragement and support! I like that he says Genesis is a club and
not a gym, and that's the way I feel. I'm always welcomed and "Everyone
knows your name". I would recommend the boxercise class to anyone." -Diana |
| "Since moving to the island in April of last year it has been a bit
daunting to start over in a new place. I knew as soon as I walked into
Genesis that I belonged. I went to other places to give it a try, but
I did not feel that welcoming feeling that I did when I entered the
boxing gym. Rick and his team are a family and in turn make
everyonewho walks in the door feel a part of that family. As a woman taking boxing, I feel empowered and confident. The strength that I have gained is amazing. At times it doesn't even feel like working out as you're having to concentrate on your technique and doing the drills right that Rick gives you to do. But at the end of class the feeling of accomplishment is like no other. I have worked out since I have been 18 and now I am 40 and can honestly say that this is the most amazing workout that I have ever done. And I have done workouts from all over the world so that says quite alot. So thank you Genesis for making me feel so welcome and privileged to be a part of your family and team." -Ilona Helm |
| "I
started Rick's boxercise class a year after having my last baby and
really needed something to get me motivated to lose that baby weight.
After the first class I was hooked - I was all in after that one
session and it just keeps getting better. The baby weight is long
gone, but more than anything, I've found not only motivation, but feel
empowered and fit. I've learned loads of new skills - who knew
there was so much to think about throwing punches?!! Overall
though, the best part of Genesis is the feeling of friendship and
teamwork during each and every class. All the girls cheer each
other on and I've made great friends there, including Rick, who makes
each member of his club feel like they belong to something special -
because they really do." -Sharon Todd aka "Breezey" |
| "I
started end of July 2010 and have tried hard not to miss a class since
then. I had been looking for a fitness class for a long time but
they were all the same, in front of a trainer copying what they do the
best you can. The support you get from Rick, Rich, and all at
Genesis, including the other class members is amazing. Rick is
fantastic, he will push you just enough to go beyond what you thought
you were capable of but not so hard you feel defeated. And that
is what kept me coming back and became a full member. I was having fun working out with boxercise as it is such a varied class, heavy bags, speed bags, cardio, and pad work. I could see results after only a month, and wanted more, so started using the gym also. Then I had Rich set out a strength training a nutrition program for me. The results have been steady and exactly what I asked for. Genesis is not a male boxing facility it is more of a "club", as Rick says, where you are welcomed as a person not a member with a number. I have never felt out of place lifting weights amongst the men from teens to those older than me. Thanks to all those at Genesis for the help, encouragement and support I have had and the support they send out to the community." -Cheryl Vandermeer |
