I've quite recently started taking classes here at Polecats. I have to say that this is by far the most fun that I have ever had working out.
Ok, so I have spent the past 3 years quite ill. Long story short, I was very inactive during this time. I gained 30 pounds and I lost a lot of my body strength. I have finally been given the ok by my Dr. to get back into exercising. I chose to try something that I felt would be both fun and physically challenging. That led me here to Polecats. (I felt like the back story is necessary to understand my fitness level)
I felt very intimidated and overwhelmed before my first class. I nearly didn't go because I was so worried that I wouldn't be able to handle it or that I would look absolutely stupid. I must tell you that though my first class was challenging, I had an amazing time. The instructor was very helpful and encouraging. She helped me to start at a place that was right for my fitness level. She has been very encouraging and though I may not be up to speed with the rest of my class, I did not feel left out or discouraged. All of the other instructors that I have had were equally as nice to work with.
I just wanted to share this because I know that for some women going to a new gym or starting a fitness class can be overwhelming. If that is something that you are dealing with then I think that this is absolutely the studio that you should try. I already feel more confident and I actually look forward to class.
