Group Training: Fitness Education with a TWIST!
Empower takes an innovative approach to fitness training. Although Group Coaching is done in a group of up to 3 people, the design and layout of our state-of-the-art equipment and facility allows a personal touch and a sense of individual attention to be given to each participant in the group.
Unlike other forms of fitness instruction, Group Coaching at EMPower allows you to pursue your goals alongside others within the EMPower community that have similar goals and are at a similar fitness level. This allows you to generate a comfortable feeling of teamwork with new or existing friends with no sacrifice of personal attention.

In order to achieve a state of wellness one has to work on the components which contribute to being healthy and happy.
