What makes Ohana different than a regular gym?
We are so much more than just a fitness studio. One of the biggest things we pride ourselves on is our community we have built. We believe one of the most important things to focus on is surrounding yourself with positive people in an encouraging, uplifting environment.
You will feel the difference from the moment you walk through the doors. Our community is truly unlike any other in so many ways.
From the first smile and hello you get at the front desk, to the classmate that helps you get set up for your workout, you will feel like you truly belong.
What equipment do I need?
If you’re attending a class at the studio, you don’t need any equipment at all! Ohana provides equipment for participants even mats!
Online clients, it’s always your best bet to have a variety of weights around including a light set, medium set, & heavy set of weights which ranges depending on your strength and fitness level. A good starting place for light is 3-5lbs, medium 6-12lbs, heavy 15-20lbs. Some equipment you might see in classes outside of weights are: a mat, ankle resistance bands/booty bands, pilates ball, resistance bands with handles, sliders, pillow, etc.
What services do you offer?
Little Black Dress 6 Week Transformation Program, Online Classes, On-Demand Workout Library, Personal Training, Physical Therapy, Stretching Sessions, Monthly Workshops, Park Walks, Run Cub, Meetups, Mindset Challenges, Fitness and Nutrition Challenges and more!
