Fantastic experience: I have been a part of dope training since the beginning. As a client, dope training family member, as a graphic artist, and as a business mentee. Mike and K are two of the dopest people ever to train with! They empower you, make sure you’re making real lifestyle changes to not only meet your fitness goals but create an overall healthier life for yourself. They hold you accountable and make you self accountable for your training. Training with them doesn’t give you the uncomfortable pressures of the gym, everyone moves at their own pace and its just an overall fun environment to be in. Highly recommended!!

Fantastic experience: Dope Training is an awesome environment, the owners treat you like family not just a client or a number!! The trainers actually take the time to get to know you and walk with you every step of your fitness journey, and believe me they won’t let you quit and are always open if you have questions. Deciding to go with Dope Training was the best decision thus far, I proudly tell anyone who is listening where I workout at, they are changing my life for the better! Trust the process!!

Tamiko Lucas 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I started my journey to become more healthy and confident and I found DOPE Training. My first session I knew this was the place for me it naturally felt like HOME. I would highly recommend dope training coach Mike is literally the best! He really cares about his clients and build personal relationships with his clients. Dope training gives you a family feel environment and the energy is always great!

Fantastic experience: Dope training is my place of comfort. It’s a family. Kathleen and Mike truly care about their clients. These two coaches go hard and sacrifice for us. They push us and make sure we reach every goal we want to achieve. They motivate us. I never seen coaches that are 100% dedicated and strive to keep their clients on top. They are professional. You see results, you just have to come! They practice social distancing. I’ve been training during COVID and NEVER got sick. They care about our safety. Dope training IS the place you want to be. Don’t be scared of change. Their going to be there to walk you through everything. Thank you Dope training for helping me get a better and stronger mindset and the body goals I wanted.

Nedra Joiner 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have always wanted to get a trainer and start going to the gym. Time wouldn't allow or better yet, I didn't make time. Dope Training was the BEST choice for me. I like the flexibility and now working out/training is part of my everyday life. Being FIT is definitely a LIFESTYLE! You get back what you put in. Big Thanks to my trainer Mike Sanders. He pushes me and makes me want to push myself harder. NEVER QUIT, NEVER GIVE UP! #DopeTrainingRocks

Erika Nicholes 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was welcomed into the Dope family a few months ago, and man was it one of the best decisions that I've made! The dedication of Michael and Kathleen is inspiring and precedent amongst the overall atmosphere of this community. Not only are you guaranteed results, but every session is a guaranteed fun time. Dope Training ultimately makes exercise and the fitness lifestyle DOPE. Surrounded by motivating and upbeat music, our family jokes and laughs, getting through our intense workouts. Before you know it, the session is over and you're looking in your mirror amazed at your improved body. Get. There. Don't wait, just don't it.☑️

Tashika Thurmond 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dope Training has changed not only my body but my mind. These two are the best trainers I have ever came across. You want a trainer who is patient, understanding, and always ready to work. Sign up for dope training, you will not regret it.

Charley Angel 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love the coaches at dope training!! They are both energetic, encouraging,passionate, flexible and fun to work with. And No they don’t burn your pockets, the prices are reasonable. If they don’t see you hit that gym they will check on you.

johnathan 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: First and foremost, Mike and Kathy are more than my trainers, THEY ARE FAMILY!! They are experienced trainers and they take their time learning the capabilities of each of their clients by individualizing them. Realizing that each client has their own personal needs and wants, each personal training session is tailored just for them. They will push you to your limits by strengthening your weaknesses and improving upon your strengths. If you want to train and train HARD while yielding major results but in a loving, peaceful, comfortable, fun and no passing judgement environment, then Dope Training is for you!! This is what we all share while working with Mike and Kathy and it is what keeps their clients coming back!!! I WILL BE A LIFETIME MEMBER OF DOPE TRAINING!!

Yemisi Taylor 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love my Dope family!!!!!! Best training experience I've ever endured. The personal, family touch is a God-send. Dope family for life.

Candice Elbialy 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am giving this place 5 stars and huge kiddos to the trainers. My best friend Donjeanique took this class and her goal was to lose a little baby weight before she went on vacation with her husband. Donjeanique would tell me in the beginning that it was tuff but she is not giving up. After a few weeks of getting used to the workout routines and the change in her eating habit she was feeling much better. Not to mention I started to notice her losing weight rapidly. I would love to say Kiddos to the instructors for helping people feel great about themselves as well as helping people chose healthy items to eat everyday. This program is for anyone looking for a challenge. If you read this review....it will start off ruff but don't give up everyone is cheering for you!!!! I am proud of all your hard work Donjeanique. You look amazing

Ms Goal Catcher 6 years ago

Mischelay Roberts 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: DOPE Training is not just about working out and getting fit. It’s about finding a FAMILY that is willing to help you not only reach your goals, but push you to get there. Mike, Kathy, & the whole DOPE family are just that, FAMILY! Making the decision to join them in January has been the best decision I’ve made. I’ve never felt more challenged and supported to workout ever.

Taiesha Stroud 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: He is a JERK!!! On a serious note he is AWESOME SAUCE!!! I started training with Mike in June, and when I tell you that he has pushed me beyond the limits that I have set for myself to want more and better it is unfreaking believable!! I started at 210lbs and now I am 192lbs. Mike, is the DOPEST!!! Dope Training is really like a FAMILY!!! Everybody supports one another and they are soooo encouraging!! Thank you Mike for allowing me to be apart of the DOPEST FAMILY IN CHICAGO!! I am soooo ready to drop these last 10lbs SOOO LETS GET TO WORK!!!

Toya Redmond 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am so glad I found this company!!! Not only are they phenomenal trainers, Mike and Kathy are awesome people. I’ve never felt comfortable working out in the gym because I felt like people were always staring at me but the environment at DOPE Training is more like a family with DOPE workouts and education and advice. It’s like a big warm hug from your grandma. You always feel welcome. I’ve lost some pounds, a whole lot of inches, gained some muscle and a whole new family! If you are looking for a trainer that wants to see you achieve your goals, get you a Mike and a Kathy in your life! You will not lose. They won’t let you!

Glad I found them and will be DOPE for life

Shamil Williams 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've gone through quite a few trainers in my history of working out and of all the trainers I've ever worked with this is by far the best experience. If you're looking for just a trainer, then this isn't the place for you. But if you're looking for a trainer, a motivator, a life coach and a family then this is where you need to be. Mike and Kathleen are all of that and more. Not only are they intense with their workouts but they care about you and your health and the goals that you are working to achieve. They go above and beyond any trainer that I've had. The training not only comes with great trainers but you will also see results. In a 6 month timeframe, I lost 40 lbs, whenever I got discouraged they were right there being my biggest cheerleaders. I could go on and on but it's best that you join to see for yourself. If I could give 10 stars I would.

Candace Robinson 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love this couple, they push you and support you and they are very informative of all exercises, health, positions, meal plans, vitamins and etc you need. I have been working with Mike for a while and seeing them both work together is amazing!

Marylou Servin 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely a huge fan of DOPE Training! Michael and Kathleen are the BEST and do an amazing job of creating a family environment. It can be very intimidating when you are training in a health club, but they make you feel comfortable and you see results quickly. I would absolutely recommend anyone joining DOPE training! You definitely won't regret it! In fact, you'll enjoy it!

Destiny Johnson 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: DOPE Training is apart of me forever... I have never been excited to workout or want a better healthy lifestyle for myself. Between the personal sessions, group sessions, group classes, 28 days challenge, etc; Coach Mike and Coach Kat always implement new training methods to keep us coming back for more. You won’t be disappointed! #DareToBeDOPE‼️

Tonja Harris 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for: a place that's body conscious, where you can get a serious workout, with extra sweat added--along with real results, then this is the place for you! Mike is extremely knowledgeable, as it relates to what works for your body--and he is really flexible! Check out Dope Training, if you're in the area! You won't be disappointed.

Anna Solis 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: This review is long overdue! I joined DOPE Training in April of this year and I cannot thank Coach Mike and Kathleen enough for everything they have done! Like anyone else I was researching personal training through google and Yelp because I was ready to make some real changes in my life, everything else just fell into place soon after. This place here gets you out of your comfort zone right away, from the training sessions with mike to the must-go to Spin class with Kathleen! You meet a great group of people who motivate you and show you that it can be done! No matter whether you’re a stay at home mom or work long hours they will work with you to not only achieve your goals but surpass them. So if you’re searching for what trainer to chose these are your people! From someone who never worked out before coming here, I have gained so much confidence through DOPE training and have never felt better. Thank you guys

Erica Mitchell 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Mike and Kathleen are great!!!! They are focused on your overall health. Dope Training is a family environment. We have group outings outside of the gym. It is truly a family. They create fitness goals to get anyone where they want to be.

lovemary 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Trainers Mike and Kathleen are very welcoming to clients of all fitness levels and encourage you to be your best inside and out. Training and classes are readily available and they will work you out! A completely non judgemental environment mixed with a family atmosphere plus emphasis on physical and mental health both inside and outside of the gym makes DOPE Training an absolute gem!! I encourage anyone reading this to check out the website and contact them!

Erika Love 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Mike is really cool and down to earth person, He’s extremely motivating and will not allow you to give up on the goals you have for yourself. I’m really happy with the progress I’ve made with him. ❤️

Monqua 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dope Training is a home away from home. Michael and Kathleen are absolutely amazing the sky is the limit and the I can't do it attitude is not permitted. I have lost a total of 37lbs with DOPE training and this is while dealing with all the blows that life had waiting for me. DOPE training is your Dr. Counselor and fitness coaches all in one anything to help you obtain your fitness goals mentally and physically. You will not be disappointed.

Quaniqua Mosley 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I can't express how amazing these trainers are!!! I've achieved so much while being apart of this amazing group of people. I'm so happy to have found two of the best trainers out there. They are always supportive and I can truly say they have been there for me every step of the way!!!

kj carter 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Both Michael and Kathleen Sanders have been such a huge support system for me. I used to have serious self-esteem issues about my weight. Not once, while working with Mike and Kathy, did I feel any sense of self-consciousness, fear or shame about my weight. They encourage me everytime I go to training to push myself to the max. Also, they keep you laughing all throughout training. You’re having fun AND getting great results at the same time‼️‼️ It doesn’t get better than that.

N Jones 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I absolutely Love DOPE TRAINING, it’s a great experience. If you are looking forward to getting on your healthy life journey this is the place to be. I enjoy my workouts and have fun while there. It’s the trainers Michael and Kathleen and the other clients as well. Give them a try you will not be disappointed with the results.

Kathe Scott 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: If your looking for results pay Mike and Kathleen a visit. They provide training that is unique to your personal goals and push you when you want to say "no I can't do it". They got me fit for my wedding in 2015 and this 28 day challenge has my clothes falling off! Keep helping people achieve their weight goals! :)

Nakesha Johnson 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love my DOPE family. Coach Mike and Coach Kathleen are the best. The atmosphere is so inviting. Their humble spirits make you want to keep coming. Working out with them doesn't seem like a dreaded task. I actually look forward to working out now and get excited when it's time for the classes. I'm so glad I'm on this journey with the BEST coaches my DOPE FAMILY.

Millicent McIntyre 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a place that will help you grow, DOPE Training is the place to be. Joining DOPE training was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Michael and Kathleen are the best trainers. They care about you and they care about the goals you are trying to achieve. They teach you not to care about losing weight but to care more about being healthy. I am proud to say that I have been a member of DOPE training for 18 months. The more I go, the more I grow. If you want to be part of a family, you need to sign up for DOPE training, it will be an experience that you will never forget! WE are truly FAMILY! They believe in you more than you believe in yourself! I’m not saying it will be easy, but I am saying that it is worth it! Come join and trust the process! ~ Millie M

Samantha Neloms 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was so apprehensive about getting a trainer. But Michael and Kathy has been a godsend since day 1! I cant believe I lucked up and found such awesome ppl. They care about not only your physical health but also your mental well being. It really is a family environment. They are so welcoming and so are the other clients! I guess thats what makes them Dope!!

Heliene Drane 6 years ago
