koi FITNESS Program & Philosophy
According to ancient Chinese legend, the koi represents courage, perseverance, strength, and achievement. It was said that any koi that succeeded in bravely climbing the falls at Dragon Gate on the Yellow River would be transformed into a dragon.
Similarly, Koi Fitness approaches health and fitness as an opportunity for the same type of transformation in the form of personal growth and improved quality of life. Our program is centered on helping each member develop self-confidence, strength, endurance, and continually achieve new levels of fitness though exercise and proper nutrition.
Program Fitness Components
The koi FITNESS program contains several components that separate us from the typical outdoor exercise class.
-
Assessments
At the beginning and end of each session, you complete a personal fitness assessment. This assists us in placing you in the group that is appropriate for your abilities as well as setting a benchmark for you to measure results. The assessment includes standard fitness tests as well as body measurements so you can tell how far you have progressed at the end of each session. Workouts
Workouts are unique and are generally comprised of warm-ups, pull-ups, push-ups, sit-ups, squats, lunges, intermittent running, resistance training, agility exercises, and more. One hour a day, four days a week for only six weeks, you will focus on various fitness areas such as flexibility, core strength, power, endurance, balance, speed, and agility. The workouts progressively increase in volume over each six week session to keep pushing your fitness level to new heights and your body fat percentage to new lows.Nutrition
Eating right is an integral part of our program and one of the ways we offer more than other outdoor boot camp fitness programs.Instructors
Our instructors come from many different disciplines and each of them bring a unique element to the program. Check out their bios.Locations
Workouts take place in the best gym around - the great outdoors. You will be surprised how motivating, exciting and different it can be to take it outside for a change. We offer outdoor exercise classes in several San Francisco Bay Area locations at convenient times so there is always an option to fit your busy schedule.Attitude
Our approach to fitness is designed to get you involved and make you accountable for your life. Trainers are there to assist you in accomplishing your goals, not yell at you for missing them. It is important for you to be in a group of people who have similar abilities with a trainer who knows how to motivate you in a safe, fun and challenging environment.
Koi Fitness offers results. Here's what our members have to say:
"I've always considered myself an athlete, but Koi has taken my workouts to a new level. I love not knowing what's in store for me that morning, and trying fun, new workouts. It's never dull!" - Sara Bacon
"From day one, the instructors have worked closely with me to tailor
the workout routine to accommodate old injuries and help me meet my fitness
goals. Each workout is challenging but not overwhelming. It's been a well
rounded learning experience with exposure to several instructors, each
providing me with training and knowledge enhanced by their individual
areas of expertise." - Todd DeLong
"After losing 65 lbs. I am feeling great all over!" -

"I found my life changing once I started meeting with Koi. I earned a promotion to Manager of Creative Services, I am able to surf longer, think quicker, ski harder and apparently it made me a better fisherman. I find myself wanting to eat better and I just feel better. Koi Fitness changed my life." - Dan Smith--lost 28 lbs.
