What Makes DC Fitness the gym for people who don’t like gyms?
DC Fitness is not your typical “bro” gym.
This gym is not designed for muscle heads.
This gym is not designed for figure competitors.
This gym is not designed for professional athletes.
This gym is designed for EVERYDAY people, just like you who want to better themselves and excel in ALL areas of life.
People who are BUSY and who have other priorities that compete with their fitness, yet still know ‘there must be a better way!’
There are 3 main ways that we cater specifically to introverts and/or people who don’t like typical gyms:
Education/Knowledge Based Approach to Building Confidence - As an introvert myself (Derek) who was very shy when I began working out, I know first hand how powerful education can be when it comes to building confidence in the gym and how introspective deep thinkers like us become confident by knowing how to do things properly and understanding the “why”.
Private, Low Intimidation Atmosphere - Our studio is two small studios, with minimal other traffic and very few other people around. Almost every member or 1-on-1 client started where you are now, so there is no judgement or shame in starting from whatever point you’re first coming to us, even if it seems embarrassing to you. We keep the private atmosphere so that you can work out in peace and build confidence without having to worry about people judging or staring.
Laid Back Expert Coaches - Our coaches take a laid back 1-on-1 type approach to coaching. Rather than a drill sergeant yelling at you, we take a strategic approach 1-on-1 with each clients ensuring that you get the results you want, minimize the risk of injury and feel confident that what you are doing is working. We’ll also gradually build up intensity rather than crushing you in your first workout so that you’re excited to come back rather than dreading it. Of course as coaches, we’ll still encourage, motivate and push you to do your best, but it won’t be harsh or abrasive or force you to do things you hate.
the definition of an ‘everyday superhero’…
At DC Fitness we call our members and clients Everyday Superheroes.
Being an Everyday Superhero is about holding yourself to a higher standard.
Our mission is to empower you through fitness to make the most of your gifts so that you can live a happy, fulfilled and generous life.
It's aspiring to be the best you can be and not settling for anything less.. We believe that each one of us has a deep-rooted purpose and gift to serve the world. Unfortunately most of us don't make use of those gifts. We are here to help you tap into your full potential.
Whether that's helping you sleep better, getting you in better shape so you have better energy through the day or eating healthy to live longer and increase the duration of your ability to serve the world, this is why we do what we do!
Will you join us?
Will you take on the challenge and mission to be the best version of yourself for the people around you?
If so, then this is the place for you.
Every hero Needs a Guide…
Just like Luke Skywalker needed Yoda, Batman needed Alfred and Katniss Everdeen needed her rough around the edges guide Hamitch, you also need a guide to help you along your Superhero journey and push you to reach your full potential.
…And that’s where we come in.
Don’t you and your family deserve you living your best life?
Have you ever worried about leaving doing something about your health until it’s too late?
Have you been searching for a fitness facility you can trust?
One with staff that actually care about you as a person and not just another sale?
Do you long to understand your body better so you can become more independent and in control?
Did you know that taking care of your health and fitness actually increases your energy and your ability to enjoy life and take care of your loved ones?
Most people who want to lose weight struggle with these same questions.
You’re not alone and we’re here to help.
