Success Stories

The results we get with our clients are beyond those that a scale or bodyfat calipers can measure.  

To help you understand how our classes make people feel and the change our workout system makes in ones life outside of simply 'being fitter', here's just a few testimonials and videos that say it better than we ever could:
 
I have lost 40 pounds since joining Bonza, gained some very nice muscle tone (bonus for me) and have an all around healthier balance in my life since joining the Bonza family!
I have been a member for 7 months now, and have gotten so much more from Bonza than just a "healthier body".
 
I have new friends, more balance in my life and it is like being a part of an amazing, supportive, growing family!  Jamie and Taryn helped me every step of the way, the support I have received from them is beyond anything like "going to a gym for a workout".

Training with Bonza is training you can stick with. Even though you are in classes with people of all body types and weight loss/ fitness goals. Every work-out is different so you don't get bored and you're constantly engaging different muscles.
-Caitlin O (26 lbs lost)
 
Here is where I was about one month ago. Recently separated after 30 years of marraige, and at the age of
51, just accepted my 40 pound weight gain as a part of life.
 
In this past one month period with Bonza, I have lost about 13 pounds, gained some muscle, and a whole new frame of mind about diet and exercise.  
 
I was amazed when I walked into the Bonza Bodies Studio, there are no silvery clunky weight machines, but equipment that challenges your balance, aerobics, muscles, mind, inner soul, posture, coordination, determination.  If feels like all parts of fitness are being addressed.
 
And no two workouts have been the same.  
 
I have felt challenged yet motivated, always safe and encouraged, and by the end, sweaty and successful!

Thanks to Jamie and Bonza!

UPDATE:  (since starting, Sara has lost 25 lbs and is stronger than ever, physically, emotionally and mentally)
 

I gained weight when I was pregnant with my baby girl and found it difficult to lose the weight on my own.

I really wanted to make positive changes for myself, but more than anything, I also want to lead by example for my daughter.

In the first month alone I lost 14lbs, and I feel amazing. I would tell anyone looking to make changes in their own life to join bonza for the positive, fun environment and all the great people :).

At bonza, we work really hard, but the results make it worth it!

In the past I've been that person that works out a lot, not always getting the results I hope for. 
 
A dear friend recommended Bonza Bodies and I gave it a try. My issue was simple, after many business dinners, much business travel and long hours in the office, I had gained a belly, lost a lot of muscle and was feeling overweight and just bad about myself.
 
I talked to Jamie, tried the classes and decided to go for it. 
After a month doing about 4 classes a week and following the nutritional program I feel better physically and feel better about myself, and I feel stronger.
              

I lost about 16 pounds in 6 weeks, got some other weight moved back where it should be (welcome back shoulders and biceps!) and most importantly,

 
My body fat went from 13.8% to 8.6%. This is phenomenal. And to top it all off, I lost the gut. 

Jamie and Bonza Bodies has truly taught me that I really dont need to train harder, but rather I just need to train smarter. 

I have just decided that I'm going to get in the best shape of my life, because I want to, and now with the help of Bonza Bodies, I know that I can.

I feel motivated to forget my daily troubles for the hour I'm working out and I know evey class is going to vary eaach and every time, removing redundancy and boredom from exercise!  I've lost 20 lbs in 8 weeks and I feel great!

To all you Brides out there,
If you are looking to get in shape and feel amazing for your upcoming nuptials, then Bonza Bodies is the place for you! I started with Bonza in January 2011, approximately 4 months before my wedding. I was active and in pretty good shape before joining; with a fairly rigorous weekly routine of yoga, pilates and cardio.  However, on my first day at Bonza I quickly learned that it’s not “how much” you do, its “what” you do to work out: I wasn’t working the “right” muscles to get into optimal shape.
As a kid, I swam competitively, and as a result developed an upper body that was muscular but always bigger than I wanted it to be (it has always been my “problem area”). While yoga sculpt and pilates kept me toned, those movements toned my shoulders and neck area, causing me to look much bigger through my upper body than I actually was. Since my wedding dress was strapless, Jamie and I worked hard to work my mid back muscles in lieu of the shoulders, allowing those larger muscles to drop down and create a nice lean silhouette. And what a difference it made!
In addition to working out 4 times a week at Bonza, I also went full force on the “Bonza Diet”—as a result, I lost 12 pounds and 5% body fat! I felt amazing and achieved the look I always pictured of having in my wedding dress. Even better, my friends and family even noticed the difference, and gave me the best compliment of “you are not just a thinner version or yourself, but a much better and healthier version of yourself”- which is exactly how I wanted to look and feel when I walked down the aisle!
Jamie was such an amazing support and guide during the time I have been with Bonza Bodies. I looked exactly how I wanted to on my wedding day, and I couldn’t have done it without Bonza! Thank you Jamie!
