I've attended Cara's Six Week Technique course and have been a volunteer "athlete" at several of the live coaching under observation sessions for her Coaches Academy. My daughter is also currently participating in her Youth Training Group twice a week.
Cara and her staff are warm, friendly, welcoming, and flexible - qualities I appreciate given that so much of the fitness community feels like it's just an extension of the multi-level marketing industry. I never once felt pressured to purchase programming or join her gym because Cara only asked me once if I would be open to becoming a client with a recurring membership at her facility. This stands in stark contrast to my past experiences, which have led me to expect endless emails, phone calls, or one-on-one "discussions" about my fitness goals from gyms, boxes, and trainers. Cara is running a business so I anticipate some attempts to bring me on as a regular client, but I was pleasantly surprised by her lightweight approach which favors developing relationships with (potential) clients in place of cynical pitches to garner more business.
