I have nothing but great things to say about Hamilton Fitness Academy. It is an amazing facility that is operated by professional and talented staff. I have struggled with my weight my entire life as I have attempted many diets and have joined many gyms in the past. I recently joined HFA with the hopes of overcoming these struggles and it is a decision that I definitely do not regret. I am so thankful that I have been paired up with Jad as my personal trainer. He is professional, patient, knowledgeable, and an overall genuine person. What I appreciate most is how motivational and encouraging Jad is. Each time I work along side him, he educates me on all things health/fitness-related and he works to provide and develop the skills needed for me to maintain this "new and improved" lifestyle. You can tell that Jad genuinely invests in each and every one of his clients. I highly recommend Hamilton Fitness Academy! Jay (the owner), Jad, and the other trainers and staff are all wonderful. It is truly a community and family within HFA as you will regularly be greeted with smiles and fist bumps each time you walk through the doors. This has especially been important for me as I lack confidence when it comes to fitness. HFA is definitely helping to change this! More...

I’ve been coming to the Hamilton fitness academy for just over 6 months seeing Allen for fst sessions. I have had the best experience starting from walking through the door and having every trainer greet me to having Allen really help me when it comes to helping with injuries and giving me an overall good stretch. Through coming here I’ve also noticed how much all the trainers care about the clients and am very happy I decided to try it out! I highly recommend checking HFA out. More...

I've bounced around from gym to gym as a trainer looking for something that fulfills all my needs and wants. When I made the choice to come over to HFA it was a big life decision for me. Ever since being here I have not regretted my decision in the slightest bit. The rest of the trainers immediately made me feel welcomed and part of the family.......and I mean IMMEDIATELY. There's no egos between trainers but rather one group, one team, one heartbeat and ultimately one family working together cohesively to create the best changes possible for their clients and the community as a whole. The trainers are top notch trainers and I've never met a team that so willingly wants to continue to develop their skill set and education by taking courses and getting certified with specified training. The attention to detail from the trainers to all of their clients is bar none the best I've ever been apart of. At HFA the staff obesess about perfection and will settle for nothing less. I am so happy I made the transition to come over and I'll never look back. I'm so pumped to see where HFA goes in the next 2-5 years. LOOK OUT WORLD!! More...

HFA is a welcoming, fun atmosphere with amazing trainers and clients. The community they've built there is awesome. I did the Booty Boot Camp with Claire for 3 months and got amazing results. Claire kept me on track, taught me proper form for weight lifting, and helped me to integrate proper nutrition into my routine. She celebrated my gains with me and I felt that she was super invested in helping me to reach my goals. I lost 12+ inches all over my body and feel stronger and leaner. I recommend the Boot Camp whether someone is just starting their workout journey or needing to revamp what they are already doing- Claire is so knowledgable and supportive. Prepare to have your butt kicked by the workout though ;) More...

When I joined HFA in Jan 2019, I had the expectation of getting fit and losing weight (I think that’s the goal for most people). What I didn’t expect was my back pain/injury to be fixed. I have multiple disc herniations in my lower back, and I was visiting the chiropractor multiple times a week, and doing spinal decompression 2x per month. I literally couldn’t stand for over a month but now, after 6 months of training, I haven’t seen the chiropractor or had spinal decompression in 3 months. My quality of life has changed immensely and if I’m being 100% honest, I never thought that would happen. I owe it all to HFA and Allen Tedjo. Allen is a miracle worker. He has been so patient, and most importantly, he understands my injury and limitations. More...

They say you can't choose your family. I disagree. They say nothing good comes easy. I disagree. They say change is hard. I disagree . When you join HFA you aren't just joining a gym, you're joining a family. When you join HFA and meet the trainer's and staff it's easy to look forward to training there.When you train at HFA, the changes in your body, mind, spirit and lifestyle will be the most amazing successes you've ever experienced. HFA is not just a gym or fitness studio. It is a home. A family. A place where everyone encourages you on your journey to finding the best version of yourself. You WILL work hard. You WILL be challenged. You WILL have fun. And you WILL be glad you joined. More...

It can be really hard to find a gym to work at where the trainers aren't in competition with one and other for sales. It's near impossible to find an atmosphere where trainers can express themselves and have fun at work while getting the job done and if nothing else it's nice get paid respectfully for the job we do. Not peanuts. I think most of all it's just a positive, team based atmosphere, full of encouragement, and mutual support (clients included). HFA is a really great place to work for all these reasons.

I have been training at Hamilton Fitness Academy since the end of December 2018. The atmosphere at HFA is unbelievable, all the trainers are welcoming and extremely motivational. The gym is extremely clean and organized, you feel like all the trainers truly care about the environment. I do personal training 3x/week with Xavier, going into the gym was so outside my comfort zone I was extremely nervous. Xavier is extremely upbeat and always portrays the positive lifestyle he suggests to others. Xavier’s knowledge of human physiology partnered with his athleticism makes for a good combination of a motivational trainer. Xavier is a vegan which has been helpful in my transition to that lifestyle, he places a lot of emphasis on a healthy diet and teaches his clients how food fits into a healthy lifestyle. Xavier takes pride in his training and personalizes every program for his clients. He takes into account mobility issues as well as injuries and assists in overcoming them. He definitely practices what he preaches. He lives a healthy and positive lifestyle and that shines through every time he is in the gym; he assists in making lifestyle changes that are ever-lasting. Training with Xavier at HFA is one of the best decisions I have ever made, he is truly helping me make all the positive changes in my life. I would recommend him to anyone looking to transform their lives. More...

Working at HFA has been one of the most liberating and enjoyable work environments I have ever been in. You get to embrace fully what you love to do without having to feel you are competing with the next trainer beside you. You are motivated and pushed to be the best when you work with the best! When you join the Academy, it's not just a studio to train at, it's a second home. You are welcomed, hugged and laughing within the first ten minutes of being inside. Every trainer brings a different strategy and style of training to the table. HFA truly has the most elite quality trainers on the market! If you want results, HFA PT will give you results! More...

Day 1What have I done? I've only had a personal trainer once before. This time around is even better with Allen. Sometimes I whine and I'm tired but Allen is great at motivating one to get the job done and keeps the motivation alive by reminding you of your goals. Allen has a "hawk eye" for noticing when your form has improved and lets you know about the change with great enthusiasm. I look forward to my training time and within 20 minutes I am very happy because the endorphins are floating around which causes one to work harder.Thanks for being there, Sarah L More...

There is definitely a difference between going to a regular gym vs going to a gym where you feel welcomed and feel like you're at home! All the trainers there take time to get to know everyone who walks into that gym. Huge shoutout to every single person that works there committing to making the gym feel personal to their clients. You will never feel like an outcast and this gym will actually make you want to get up and workout. HFA stands for encouragement and positivity and that is definitely something you'll feel immediately when you step in.

I wouldn't be who I am today if it wasn't for her encouragement and useful training methods to help me grow. This is not just a gym- it's a home and somewhere where you can feel safe and motivated to do your best. Thank you to my trainer Kylie and all the other trainers there who have made this gym a home to their clients. Also- To Jay, Xavier, Jake, Jad, Ryan, Tasha, Richie, it's been so great to see these trainers always greet and welcome me and other people into the gym. They've taken time to always get to know the people that come into this gym! It is also great to see these trainers take action as well when there are boxing classes that take place! We all learn and grow together! Kylie- she is not just a trainer or a coach, but also someone that will be in your life forever. She will always find a way to make everyone enjoy the work that they put in and make you want to do your absolute best! She is so passionate about wanting others to succeed.

The Hamilton Fitness Academy is such a positive atmosphere to be in. All the trainers who work there are such passionate and dedicated professionals. I have worked with a few of them, namely Jay, Tasha, Xavier, and Kylie.. and for the past 6 months for 3 days a week with the one and only Jake Reddick. He is the most energetic and enthusiastic person i have ever had the pleasure of meeting, his charisma and positive energy is just overflowing so much that it's contagious and you can't help but feel amazing about life when you're in his presence. Not only that but, he has taught me so much about exercise and proper form and different variations of movements to keep things interesting in the gym. He helped me to achieve my weight loss goals and helped me make more informed decisions with my nutrition. In short I have gained an education towards a new and better lifestyle and I plan on keeping up with the great changes I have made.All the trainers and fellow members I've had the chance to work with and workout with at HFA have become friends for life. They are almost like an extended family and Hamilton Fitness Academy is our home!I will always be grateful for the decision I made to walk through those doors and sign up!

Had the opportunity to work with Allen “The Mobility Guru” at HFA. For years I’ve been injuring my back and had no idea why. Allen tore my squat and deadlift apart and analyzed each individual muscle for weaknesses. I never realized how many muscle imbalances I had! He helped to fix my issues and taught me about my own body along the way.The HFA gym itself is a truly state-of-the-art facility. The owner, Jay Piasky and his team of truly talented and specialized trainers are one of a kind.
