Testimonials
My 97 year old mom has been a client of theirs for 2 years. Their professionalism and yet kind care is unequaled. I’ve been a hospital based nurse for 40 years and this staff is unmatched: simply the best!
My son loved working with a personal trainer here last summer and asked to do it again this year.
I started to work on my balance and to get exercising again. Chuck is a great personal trainer. He will modify an exercise to what I can do. He does challenge me. He changes the routine so it not repetitive. It was Chuck’s suggestion to have a physical therapist evaluate me. Colin Gelhardt was my physical therapist. It was decided to retrain my leg muscles to activate when they were needed, and not have other muscles compensate. With a lot of help of the physical therapist, Andrea , Stephanie I have gotten the correct muscles to work when they’re supposed to. I still do low impact classes with Chuck two days a week. We have a great office manager, Stephanie Patterson, who looks out for what the members can do, also ways to improve how things are done.
I was told about Full Distance Physical Therapy by fellow teacher Chad Dawson when he saw me limping down the school hallway. I was in constant pain, had been to two orthopedic surgeons, and was told I needed a hip replacement. Stephanie, my physical therapist, asked me to give her several weeks of rehab before making a decision to have surgery. Immediately I began to feel less pain. After receiving about three months of therapy I became, and have remained, pain free. I have a follow up appointment with my doctor soon and because of Full Distance, intend to tell her I no longer need her services. I am grateful to Dr. Alina Dawson, owner of Full Distance, for imparting her unique philosophy to the practice and to Sidney for accommodating my schedule. I am especially thankful to Stephanie for working minor miracles every week and putting me on the road to recovery. Obviously, I highly recommend Full Distance for your physical therapy needs!
I’ve been doing Elena’s full body circuit/weight training class for the last year and absolutely love it! She helps provide modifications as needed based on any limitations we have. Other classes I have tried (yoga, mat Pilates) are also great. The physical therapy and massage available downstairs has also helped me manage arthritis and joint issues. Highly recommend!
I’ve been going for 3 years and have found the instructors to be fun and effective with their classes. When I miss time going, I don’t feel good and my overall mood is not good. I find the comradery with the other participants enjoyable as well.
Elena's class is well done. A good mix of upper and lower body with cardio.
What a great way to get and stay in shape and enjoy it, all at the same time! Great instructors, making friends in my classes!
Elena's workout class at Full Distance Studio was a total blast! She brings so much energy and motivation to every session. The exercises were challenging but totally doable, and I felt like I got a great workout without feeling completely wiped out. Plus, the atmosphere in the studio was super welcoming and non-intimidating. Definitely recommend giving it a try if you're looking to break a sweat and have fun doing it!
Virtual/Zoom classes are the best with Chuck Owens. However, have found paying for the classes is difficult and confusing. Often double payments are charged to my credit card and Sydney has to straighten it out. She does with so nicely.
