She is and always will be one of my favorite instructors!! Where have all the years gone...not sure but thanks Katy for all your great classes, motivation and phenomenal instruction over the years!!

Living in a big city now, I have been on the hunt for a gym like Black Bear Fitness. They always went above and beyond to keep the facility clean and weights racked. The team at BBF made me feel like part of the family. Nothing has matched BBF, truly the best! More...

My husband and I have been members of Black Bear Fitness for a very long time! It truly is the best gym in this area! The classes range from yoga to barre cardio to arms and abs. Each class is challenging in its own way, and everyone is always so welcoming! My husband has been training with Rick, the owner for a year and a half. Rick has helped him meet his goals and transform his body with his high level of expertise. We also love that they offer child care in the mornings, afternoons and weekend. Both our children enjoy playing with all their friends in the childcare room! More...

The owners Katy & Rick are on premise and run a tight ship in keeping he place in tip top shape and really truly care about their customer and business. This is truly a community gym. Whether it is organizing a fundraiser or donating for a local cause they are truly community oriented. Not to mention the instructors are the best and will go above and beyond to meet your fitness needs. Hard to find a gym quite like this! More...

This is the only gym in my life (and I've been to many) that has a close, family atmosphere. The owners are kind, helpful and friendly, as are their staff. The machines are frequently updated, the classes are fun and I honestly can't think of one negative attribute. Thank you BBF for helping to make my life healthier. More...
