"Thank goodness for BK Roots! I discovered this studio during the pandemic. I was so thankful to find Mindy teaching classes online when everything shut down. Mindy is a great trainer-- she pushes and challenges us in the very best way. I love the Springboard Pilates classes and the seasonal fitness series, like Metabolic Mayhem (hard, but so worth it!). Check it out!"

"Mindy’s metabolic mayhem class is fantastic! It’s an excellent strength-based HIIT class that perfectly sets you up for your weekend workout to be over by early Saturday morning. Highly recommend!"

"I love going to Mindy's classes (for personal training and group class). It's rare for me to feel comfortable in a gym and I am always looking forward to my time here. I love how the place is low key and effective at delivering a workout that makes you feel strong and not injured afterwards. I first came here to get help with my lower back and shoulder issues (which was always in pain after childbirth/ baby tending), and after going to this personal training consistently, I was able to feel more stronger in my core. It helped with my posture, ability to hold myself, and my confidence. Safe to say after a year, my shoulder and back pain is no longer there. I used to hate any kind of weight lifting, have tried it many times and with many methods, and almost every single time, it would hurt my back and shoulder because something was not working. I don't feel that way at this gym, the work out is effective and yet gentle. I feel like I'm getting stronger, and leaner but I'm not drained or tired afterwards. I think she has an innate sense of knowing how to help people get stronger. The group classes are also super awesome, a sense of community but not too forced, like everyone just comes together naturally - working out with ease. Thanks Mindy!"

"I love working out with Mindy and BK Roots! I have been doing personal training and Saturday class for 6 months and I look forward to this time every week. I have not only been working towards my weight loss goals but also feel stronger and more knowledgeable about what my body needs. Mindy listens to what is going on for me in my life and helps me tailor my workouts and eating in a realistic way that I can stick to. BK Roots makes scheduling easy and their space is great!"
