WHAT IF I'M NEW TO GROUP FITNESS AND I'M NERVOUS ABOUT JOINING? this is so real and so normal - WE GET IT and we got you! we may be a little biased, but the TGCF studio is hands down the most welcoming fitness environment in town. ask questions, request modifications, grab a buddy to shadow...ABSOLUTELY no judgement ever! PLUS we keep our crew small - classes are capped at 6 people so you can feel supported by the instructor while still vibing off of the group energy!
