Fit St. Charles

Fantastic experience: The workouts Jan and Cody put together kick butt! They keep your heart rate up and keep you going without even realizing it. They kept you in good form and push you while making sure you don't get hurt. They are the best!

Fantastic experience: This is such a great gym! Both trainers are amazing, and are really good about checking form. The workouts are the perfect length, and are always varied so that you work your whole body. Jan and Cody are very encouraging and helpful. I've gotten much stronger since coming, and have improved my endurance. I recommend this gym to everyone I know in the area!

Fantastic experience: Very knowledgable staff! Well equipped facility with a friendly environment!

Fantastic experience: Hats off and a big thanks to Geneva Fit! Have been working out there for about 2 months now and can feel a big difference. Just got back from Hawaii where I did some running, biking and swimming and the classes really helped me power thru the climbs during my biking and runs. Also got an Olympic Distance Triathlon in and it felt great. Again a big thanks to the folks at GF you're great!

Fantastic experience: Jan is AWESOME! Geneva Fit is a smaller gym with small class sizes, but it allows Jan to spend more one-on-one time with each person, which is very nice. She is extremely welcoming and very hospitable. I started going to Geneva Fit to lose weight, gain energy, and begin a healthier lifestyle. I'll also mention that I am legally blind and have had a difficult time in larger gyms because I never felt completely comfortable or welcomed. Jan is very accommodating and makes sure that I am comfortable and modifies different exercises to my skill level. Her workouts are not repetitive, which keeps me from getting bored like I have in the past with other workouts. You can tell that Jan has a true passion for what she does which is very motivating when you work with her. I have a few different goals for this year and I am confident that I'll be able to reach them because of Jan's help. Thank you so much!

Fantastic experience: I have been working out for 30+ years in organized classes and gyms, and FIT St. Charles is a breath of fresh air! I love the semi-private model that Jan offers - I'm getting stronger with the focus on different body parts each session while also building a nice community of new friends I look forward to seeing each week. In addition, the TRX classes that are included are a bonus! And the Saturday drop-in class gets my weekend off to a fabulous start! Most of all, I appreciate greatly Jan's personal attention to each of us, helping us be not only stronger, but safer in each exercise. I didn't think I had anything new to learn in fitness and yet with Jan I'm learning something new in every class. This "gym" is exactly what I needed and I'm delighted that I joined!

Fantastic experience: Great gym! Everyone is super friendly, and the equipment is absolutely amazing. Would definitely recommend friends and family to get a membership!

Fantastic experience: There are plenty of machines and the staff is friendly and polite. Check in is so easy and fast. I really enjoy everything about this place

Fantastic experience: I love my private lesson with Jan at Fit, started in February. She took time to understand my health challenges and tailors my workout accordingly. She pushes me do appropriate, yet challenging level of repetitions and workouts. She is always adding new elements as I get to certain level. And she works with my schedule. I enjoy my workouts with her. I have lost 12 lbs, look more toned per my family and friends, improved my stamina, balance and strength over the last four months.

Fantastic experience: The community is so supportive. I look forward to going every time I book a class. I highly recommend it for those who are beginning or those who are at the peak of their fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: Although I have been 'fit' most of my adult life, it wasn't until our first grandchild was born that I realized how important core and upper body strength are! That's when I met Jan at Fit. I've been working out with Jan for about 5 years (and 7 grandchildren) and I can honestly say it is one of the best decisions I've ever made for myself. The strength workouts and metabolic conditioning workouts target every area of your body, ensuring that those grandkids can be picked up, held and played with! I'm getting older AND stronger. Fit is a wonderful community of men and women of all different ages and abilities. The workouts are modified to help each person reach their goal. Jan is a compassionate and kind motivator. Working out with Jan and meeting new friends from the Fit community has made a difference in my life!

Fantastic experience: When a friend of mine asked what gym I go to, I started explaining Fit St Charles and realized what a unique place it is. Small groups to individual sessions this place has it all. Pre planned workouts provide a total body workout under the close supervision of our trainer Jan. By constantly correcting our form and pushing us I have to say these are the best workouts of my very long gym life. . If you truly want to get in shape in a comfortable, safe environment, I would highly recommend Fit St Charles.

Fantastic experience: I switched to FIT St Charles spring 2018 because I needed to healthy change after some injuries, and I didn't want a large intimidating impersonal gym. Jan is incredibly hard working & a very knowledgeable trainer. It is not a one size fits all gym - it is very personalized (if you want rows of treadmills go elsewhere). I feel good about how far my strength has come & I feel like I'm really doing something for myself that should also improve the aging process. I really enjoy the small group workouts and it has been a fun way to meet new people...and a central St. Chas location is awesome. Her noon circuit has been fun and allows me to squeeze it into a workable lunch hour since my evenings are often busy with kids. It keeps my energy up in the afternoon. Jan has a very genuine interest in her customers, when I walk in the door she looks like she's glad to see me and that I have prioritized myself for the next 30 to 60 minutes. Definitely give FIT a try!

Fantastic experience: Love the workouts and community, you push yourself to do the work but always have Jan there supporting you. Perfectly located in downtown St Charles and the equipment is TOP NOTCH (seriously, the nicest workout equipment to get your best workout!!). Individualized class times, FIT fits into your schedule!

Fantastic experience: I joined FIT about 6-7 months ago. I hadn't been to a gym in about a year and was anxious because some gyms have a 'personality' that's a bit overwhelming/off putting. However, Jan (owner) and Anell (trainer) as well as all the members I've met have been friendly and welcoming. Everyone is there working towards their own goals, it's not a competition. This creates such a positive and empowering environment. The workouts are challenging, I am pushing myself much more than if I was working out alone or without a trainer. If I struggle with a certain exercise or series, there is always a way to modify it to achieve the best workout results without injury. I have seen significant improvements over the past several months. Highly recommend Fit St Charles!

Fantastic experience: At 65, I decided to take care of myself and Jan is truly a blessing to me. She works hard to strengthen me where I need it and also accommodates for my arthritis and knee injury. She is so fun to work with and is great at communicating what and why we are doing something. She has made me a believer that you can be heathy and strong at any age. I would highly recommend to any first timer.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for a great place to workout! The trainers are very knowledgeable and can modify workouts to fit your needs. The gym is very clean and is overall a safe place to workout!

Fantastic experience: Can not say enough great things about this gym. I joined years ago when they were in Geneva (I took a little hiatus). Now they have moved to downtown St Charles (closer to me). Beautiful and clean facility. Jan(owner), Stephanie and Anell are fantastic trainers. I really like the versatile workouts. I feel challenged but not so sore that I can’t walk the next day. That being said, they adjust the work out to your capability. They modify for injuries etc. They correct form. Great people at this gym, no fluff, no drama. I look forward to going and I’ve never been a gym person. This hits all the marks for me (and my 18 year old daughter who is an athlete and trains here as well….sometimes twice a day).

Fantastic experience: I’ve with worked Jan for a little over a month. I had a stroke in January of 2021, and I went through numerous hours of rehabilitation. I needed to keep up with my exercise, but I was finding that I was reaching a plateau. Jan has worked with me on strength, balance, and endurance. She is kind, competent, and motivational. She met me at the level that I was able to function at and pushes me without pushing me too far. I have noticed that I am steadier on my feet, my balance is improving, and I feel better overall.

Fantastic experience: FIT has been a breath of fresh air in my workout routine. I was looking for more variety in my workout and Jan delivered! Each workout has been different and challenging. Jan is always watching my form and helping me to get the most out of each exercise/set. The people I workout with are so nice and it's a welcoming atmosphere! The class I attend is small which I thoroughly enjoy!

Fantastic experience: I started at FIT this past summer and Jan has been so helpful. I ended up having a terrible knee injury which even led to me having surgery. Through it all, Jan has helped me modify workouts so that I could still attend. She has been great at giving me exercises to strengthen my quad which has helped so much in my recovery. One of the best things about Jan, is her ability to keep you accountable. If I fail to get to a class, I know she's going to send me a text! Jan is great at motivating people and celebrating all successes. I can't recommend FIT St. Charles enough!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism Owner and personal trainer, Jan, is very knowledgeable re: physiology and appropriate workouts for individual needs! She also understands the emotional element in an exercise program and is very good with people!

Fantastic experience: Jan and her staff are amazing. They are great trainers and motivators. I love how they celebrate each milestone with you. Thanks to Geneva Fit for helping me attain new levels in strength. I love the workout format, small group size, and the additional motivation from other members.

Fantastic experience: Geneva Fit has been a great experience from the get go! From even the initial inquiry and questions about their classes, Jan the owner sent back personal and quick responses (she even emailed me after my trial class to thank me for coming!) I have already felt very welcomed and comfortable. Jan is very present in her business and with her clients - someone who really makes the extra effort and it definitely comes through. The classes themselves are a great workout using strength, functional fitness and variety that keeps me engaged, and they are also offered on several days at several times. Lots of flexibility and choice and easy to select and book through their website/app. I also really like the smaller group setting, personal attention and support during the workouts. With coming back from physical therapy and getting back into my workouts, this place checks all of the boxes for me. I'm happy to support this local business and would highly recommend Geneva Fit to others looking for a new place to workout. I'm so happy I found Geneva Fit - thank you Jan!

Fantastic experience: Great workout with a great group of people! The workouts are TOUGH but not intimidating (even for a beginner) because Jan is always there to explain the exercises and correct form. I love starting my day with a FunFit class. It makes me feel so strong!

Fantastic experience: A fabulous place to start getting back in shape...but it ain’t easy!

Fantastic experience: Geneva Fit, it is the best - there is no better. It's not just a gym, It's inspiring and I love the dedication of the staff and the amazing results I hear and see with the members!

Fantastic experience: I love this place! The trainers are awesome and motivate you to do your very best! Mal and Jan are great!

Fantastic experience: The camaraderie of the group class provides natural team motivation but the small groups also allow for a personal training level of attention during workouts! It can’t be beat!

Fantastic experience: Jan is a great instructor and coach. I love the variety of workouts and flexible class schedules.

Fantastic experience: I used to work out at a large park district gym so was unsure of Geneva Fit due to its small size. But the group workouts (usually no more than 8) are exceptional. Everyday the workouts are different and challenging. But they're also fun. I love to lift weights but never did deadlifts or clean and press until I came here. I also love to play basketball and Geneva Fit has helped my jumping and general fitness.

Fantastic experience: Jan has helped me get stronger, physically and mentally, after a long period of inactivity. She modifies some moves to accommodate my limitations, while not conceding our goal of gaining strength, flexibility and improved overall fitness. She's got an amazingly motivating personality and makes my workouts fun and energizing. Can't recommend her enough!!

Fantastic experience: Love this place! They work with all different fitness levels and even if your busy they work they offer lots of different classes through the day and week!

Fantastic experience: You'll get such great personal attention at Geneva Fit. I always feel like I'm working out with friends. The classes are challenging and make it easy to accomplish my fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: I began my experience with GenevaFit 3 years ago and have never been disappointed! I have never been one to go to a gym. I get very intimitated by the equipment, what to do, what to wear, the other people and my lack of athletic ability. Then, I found GenevaFit and have been so happy and proud that I found a place where I feel comfortable in my own skin (attire and ability), get the much needed personalized attention I need to get the best and efficient workout and duration of classes and schedule that fit into my own busy life. I cannot say enough great things about how I feel when I am taking the classes and how I feel when I am done. There have been times when I got to class and said to Jan, I don't feel like working out or I have too much to do, but after the class, I am so happy that Jan gave me the gentle encouragement to finish. As moms, we sometimes take our own life for granted and often fail to take care of ourselves. I am proud to say, I am still working out at GenevaFit and think it is one of the best gifts I have ever given myself. It is not only for the physical state but the mental state is also so important. Thank you Jan and Genevafit for the love and care you constantly give your clients.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely life changing. I have been at Geneva Fit since July 11. I started with the Transformation program that Jan offers, and I have truly transformed both mentally and physically! Thanks Jan!

Fantastic experience: Friendly community, thoughtful/technical instruction, and motivating coaching. Quirky and supportive spirit. Definitely felt the workout the next day!

Fantastic experience: jan is great motivator for all levels of fitness and is always encouraging

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Geneva Fit for a year now and WOW! I originally started with Jan to build some muscle and become more efficient in my running and biking. I had no idea how much my body would change. I look better, feel better and ran my fastest times in all distances last year. Besides the tough workouts (they are designed for all abilities) I met some of the greatest people who always support and encourage each other. I don't know what I would do without Jan and Geneva Fit. Thank you, Jan! You are the best at what you do.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, great people.. always a better workout than a regular gym no matter what your fitness level.

Fantastic experience: This gym is fantastic! I love working out here, and even though I only started a few months ago, it really feels like home. Jan is a great trainer and a wonderful person; she has challenged me and helped me to reach new fitness goals. I love the flexibility of the class times, and the phone app for class sign-up makes this a great membership for people with busy schedules. If you are looking for a place to workout and get stronger, go to Geneva Fit!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love this gym ! It's like no other gym that I've been too. All the instructors have such positive attitudes. You also have fun while you're working out ! So happy I found this place.

Fantastic experience: I love Geneva Fit. Jan changes up the workouts each day. She also knows how to modify exercises for beginners/and or for those with injuries. My favorite is the endurance work outs.

Fantastic experience: For someone who hates to work out, I love this place. Its never the same twice. Amazing!

Fantastic experience: I live about 40 minutes from Geneva Fit. I almost want to move just to make it my regular gym. Jan is a very positive person who is passionate about what she does and she loves nothing more than making a difference in the lives of others. She is a great trainer with a lot of energy who customizes workouts to each person. She really listens and that is a quality sometimes hard to find. I love Geneva Fit and Jan!!!

Fantastic experience: I had the opportunity to participate in Jan's 1.5 hour class. It was a great workout and Jan really helped me feel comfortable and relaxed in my first class. The 'regulars" were very welcoming and encouraging. What a fantastic place! I'll be back! Thank you!!

Fantastic experience: Jan is an awesome instructor! She is encouraging and works well with everyone, regardless what fitness level they are when they come to her. She makes class fun- even burpees! I've become so much stronger since I've been working out at Geneva fit, along with my whole body feeling better (no more back aches!) I highly recommend you try Geneva Fit!

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy the small classes and semi private personal training I receive at Geneva Fit. Amy does a great job showing proper technique and providing feedback to get the most out of my workout with maximum benefit and minimizing risk of injury. Jan, the owner, is invested helping reach my personal goals. She provides feedback and helpful tips for personal growth. I love I can go at my pace and know I am getting a well rounded workout.

Fantastic experience: Geneva Fit offers a friendly environment to get a serious workout!! I love the variety of workouts offered, you know no two days will be the same but that you're always sure to get a great total body workout in. I'm also appreciative of the variety of class times and ease of registration, as my schedule varies day to day, but there's always a class that I can find time to fit in. Jan takes a personal interest in helping each member to be successful in achieving their goals, modifying exercises when necrssary and really making it feel like a personal workout specific to your needs.

Fantastic experience: Geneva Fit is an awesome place to work out. Jan is amazing and she always will customize a work out so you can do it. I started there last December. I had mild arthritis in my hip which caused me some pain. Since I've been a regular at Geneva Fit it rarely ever bothers me. Lastly it is always fun to work out here and that keeps me coming back!!
