If you want to inspire yourself to be the best and healthiest version of you – join this class of like minded encouraging friends! There is a goal setting component that keeps us consistent and accountable. The perfect combination of strength training and cardio in a safe, fun, and encouraging environment.

Awakening Warriors is a great program in a fabulous welcoming environment.The love and support in the room from the group of ladies in the class is wonderful . We are all at different levels of fitness and strength , both physical and mental , and it is so nice to have everyone cheering you on . There was no judgement or competition between participants and I really appreciated that . Peg keeps us focused on our goals and won’t let us give up on ourselves . The variety of activities makes sure you won’t get bored and keeps you working all different muscle groups . I gained muscle , strength, endurance and confidence in the class . I also made a bunch of friends. I will now even participate in the recreational boxing class with people of all ages , genders and abilities without feeling like I don’t belong. The Bulldogs Boxing Gym is like a family ,a big , goofy, energetic, loud ,lovely family. Awakening Warriors will help you get your mind and body back in shape.

The Awakening Warrior program is not your average gym experience. It’s a holistic approach to your health. This program creates a community among its members, a safe and encouraging space to push your limits and challenge old stories about what you think is possible. I’ve personally benefitted from more than just the fitness component – although, that has been incredible and the coach has been able to meet everyone exactly where they are at. The goal-setting sessions and accountability that is built into the program along with the support from the coach outside of class has helped me achieve more than I ever dared to dream would be possible. In the process, I’ve gained a new level of confidence and an incredible community.

I joined Awakening Warriors in hopes of getting back on track with my physical fitness. I am not usually one to join groups or classes, but I heard it was a great program so figured I’d give it a shot. I can’t quite put into words how good of a decision that was. I loved everything about it, the exercises, the format, the coaching, the tribe. I honestly never would have thought I’d get up that early every day or stick to a schedule, but I was motivated. And, the difference in the fitness test from the beginning to the end was a huge surprise, because I was so busy enjoying the classes that I didn’t notice how much stronger I was getting. Peggy is a fantastic coach, it’s a super supportive environment, and it’s fun!!
