This place looks a whole lot like a treadmill showroom. It is a one-on-one studio with instructors tracking, literally, your every move. Not unlike a team of doctors who share a practice, there is a team effort attitude about this place that makes you feel like you cannot lose (no pun intended). They also provide training for Shadow Boxing, Body Building, Sports Training etc. Nutrition and lifestyle are discussed and extensively analyzed here and your success in its fitness program is just about guaranteed.

'No Wimps Permitted' should be the sign above the door when you enter this facility. What you get here is real honest-to-goodness workout instruction with guaranteed results. Fitness guru, Barry Jay, is the drill sergeant-at-arms who you will either love or hate. Sign up for the 20-day program, and agree to become a devotee. Classes are held all day long with emphasis on pre-dawn classes. Barry promises to separate the men from the boys, so to speak.

You might not break a sweat but you will certainly feel the burn. Based on the fitness principles of Joseph Pilates, owner Maria Leone works celebrities and non-celebs into sleek condition. A former dancer, Leone favors long lean muscles and exercises that tone but do not add bulk. Using stretches on a mat as well as exercise machines like the Reformer she will leave you sore but impressed at the intensity of the one-hour session. For schedule and other details, check the website or call ahead.
