I love Ascent! I've been a member for almost a year now and I feel like I'm working out more efficiently than I ever have before. The workouts are fun, the community is welcoming, and I've improved a lot in strength and confidence. LOVE THIS GYM!

Love the community here. I'm getting back to basics with natural movement and seeing progress in my body. I feel better and don't dread working out anymore! This is a comfortable non judgmental environment and the group's are small.

Ascent Fitness has helped me go above and beyond my fitness goals. I feel confident walking in knowing that Marissa has planned a tough but practical workout and will modify if any part of my body is hurt. Love this gym!! Highly recommend!!

I love going to Ascent Fitness! I've been a member for a couple of months now and I particularly love how varied, fun, and challenging the workouts are in a very manageable amount of time. When I've belonged to other gyms in the past, I've typically done my own thing and gotten bored/ in a rut pretty quickly and not really experienced much progress. Ascent Fitness workouts are so much more targeted, and I'm feeling way stronger and more full-body fit in just a few short weeks. I've also seen improvements in my stability and range of motion (I could hardly balance well enough to do a full squat, with or without weight when I started--I've improved so much!) and am super pleased to feel like I'm improving my athleticism instead of declining. Marissa as a coach is incredibly approachable, answers any and all questions, and has really good advice for how to improve something you're doing or tailor it more to your current skill level. The atmosphere in the Ascent Community is incredibly positive -- with the staff and all the members really pulling for each other and invested in people personally and in their fitness goals. I would recommend Ascent Fitness to anyone, whether you're a seasoned athlete looking to improve in a few key areas or a person without much workout experience trying to start some healthy habits.

I have been coached by Marissa for the better part of the last seven years, both as my ultimate frisbee coach in college and now as a member of her gym, Ascent Fitness. I love the way that Marissa coaches as she has a wonderful combination of being encouraging, challenging, and meets people where they are at. Marissa puts her clients first and I am really thankful for the opportunity to be a part of her gym community. Just in the past month since I joined the gym I can already feel that I am getting stronger and my overall wellness has increased substantially.

I've been training with Marissa for give or take the last 5 years. I've learned a lot from her as a coach and it's been hugely important as I navigated being an athlete in school to an adult without a formal team and workout schedule.
What stands out about Ascent Fitness and the owner Marissa is the confidence I've fostered during my time at the gym. I am currently enrolled in Ascent's Approach Course, meant to teach functional movements and weight lifting. Learning how to lift properly and feel my body physically stronger is incredibly empowering, especially as a woman. I love having the same group of people in each class, which really helps accountability and gives a sense of community. Marissa balances 1:1 teaching with management of the group great during class and I always feel comfortable asking questions. The class is fun, varied and has SO MUCH ROOM to work with.
The facility is HUGE, there is turf to work on sprinting form, run ladders and other agility programs which I appreciate as an Ultimate Frisbee player! It's incredibly clean and has ample parking.
Last, but not least, I've enjoyed being a part of the Ascent community because I love being in the outdoors! Having a regular fitness routine keeps my mind and body healthy. I can jump on a climbing trip on a moments notice because I feel confident mentally and physically.

I have been working with Marissa for about 5 months now. Before Marissa I used to have a 45' workout that wasn't balanced, and was very boring. Now that I'm working with her, I have 2-3 workouts a week that compliment each other, and every month she changes the workouts so I never get bored.
One of the best things about working with Marissa is that she works with your schedule and preferences. I started with Marissa while I was working full time and taking two classes. During that time, she provided short and sweet workouts that fit around my busy schedule. Later, I finished the classes and wanted some climbing gym workouts. She proceeded to provide workouts and progressions so I could achieve my new goals.
In addition to these things, Marissa is also quick to respond to the workouts you are doing. There have been times where I wasn't sure about how to do a workout, or when the weight I was using was wrong. Often times, the day after I would post a workout (on Fitbot), she would comment and help me to ensure I was getting the most out of my exercises.
And, lastly, Marissa has and continues to work very hard to help other people improve their health and fitness. I have had an awesome time working with Marissa, and I strongly recommend checking her new gym out!
*Once the gym opens, I'll add details of that experience as well.
