Anthony Coach .jpg — WE WILL MISS YOU, COACH ANTHONY!

Please read our tribute to Anthony below, as he prepares to move to New Mexico. Also, join us for a sendoff tomorrow, Sept. 28th from 4-7pm at Piper Park!

Message from TJ

Coach Anthony joined us as a member way back in 2010. His enthusiasm for the community and his attitude about connection, combined with his background as a competitive athlete and interest in fitness and training, made for an easy decision for us to ask him to join our coaching staff. Anthony quickly forged his path as a full-time coach, as our business grew and developed and he took on increasing responsibilities.

Anthony is one of a kind. We’ve been blessed to have him as part of our gyms and our family for the past nine years, and there are many things about him that are irreplaceable, including his sense of humor, his energy, his ability to make people feel good, and his charismatic style in all he does. He cares intensely about each client and gym member with whom he’s connected. It’s the real thing.

We asked him to take over our teen program way back when, which he with his characteristic enthusiasm and kindness, jumping in with both feet by connecting to the kids and teens and showing them how to make fitness fun and at the same time educating them with real tools they can use for the rest of their lives. Many of Marin’s teens attribute their confidence and athleticism to Anthony.

Across our community, Anthony has become a coach, a mentor, and a friend. It’s difficult to capture all that he has done for our community in a single blog post. All we can say is that his legacy will be felt and lived every day in all three gyms and that our gratitude to him will endure long after he moves. We wish him and Sasha the best of luck in their new adventure. The people of New Mexico are about to get and infusion of awesome!

Please join us for a sendoff TOMORROW, Saturday, September 28th 4-7pm at Piper Park. You can sign up to bring food or drinks HERE.
