What defines the “best gym” experience?

Choosing a gym comes down to your personal priorities. Commercial big-box chain gyms rely on members who pay but never show up. As a boutique strength and wellness studio, we rely on coaching quality and real health outcomes.

Hands-on expert coaching

Every session is led by a degreed exercise coach or CSCS-certified trainer who watches your form on every rep.

A reservation-only environment

Our 4,500-sq-ft studio limits floor capacity, so you never have to wait for equipment, fight crowds, or deal with gym intimidation.

Customized longevity programming

Your workouts are tailored specifically to your body, past injuries, and longevity goals. We support your health for now and for later.

Integrated health services

Access medical-grade InBody 570 body composition scans and professional nutrition coaching all in one location.

Everything you need under one roof

My experience at Hyatt has been wonderful. After discussing my rehab from hamstring reattachment surgery and multiple degenerative knee tears with Jeremy, he recommended that I work with Neal. She has been absolutely amazing. Not only did she discuss the plan with my fabulous PT Todd Cruz who recommended Hyatt, but she adjusts my workout in the moment to avoid aggravating my injuries while still strengthening the muscles needed for my recovery. She incorporates mobility, PT, flexibility, and strength training into my routines and has created options for me when I travel. Plus she's just fun to talk to and I enjoy the Hyatt Gym vibe. I am so grateful to Neal and Hyatt Gym for the improvement I am seeing!!

I've been working out at Hyatt S+W since July of 2023. At that time, I was 1-year post-stroke recovery. When I started, Jeremy graciously reached out to his Personal Training team to select a personal trainer. Since then, my personal trainers, first Grant, then Stephen, and now Tylor, have shown an incredible amount of dedication, expertise, creativity, and patience in working around and through my physical impairments in creating and evolving an exercise program that works for me. They've worked with my physical therapists in developing workouts that both complement and reinforce the goals of my physical rehab program. Jeremy and his team have become an essential part of my recovery and adaption in a post-stroke world.

I'm so happy with Hyatt and my trainer. Everyone at the gym is knowledgable and welcoming, and my trainer, Neal, is fantastic, and makes sure I'm working at my level. She's encouraging and takes into account my individual needs, and I'm very happy with the progress I've made so far. I started out with the 3 month jump start package, and now I've signed up for a yearlong commitment. I'm looking forward to becoming stronger and developing more foundational health. This isn't the cheapest option out there, but I'm prioritizing my body's health and longevity, and I consider it well worth the cost.

Knowledgeable staff guided me through a InBody scan and I learned a ton about my body. The facilities are well appointed as well. I recommend taking advantage of the scan for insights into planning for a long-term health and wellness program.

Hyatt Strength and Wellness is a beautiful gym with a great atmosphere. I had my first appointment there and really enjoyed the experience. The InBody body composition testing was helpful, and my session with Sydney was professional, motivating, and welcoming. Highly recommend!

An update for 2025: I've been working out with Julie Hamilton for the past year and a half or so. I genuinely look forward to my workouts, and so appreciate Julie's expertise! Julie truly cares about her clients - their physical, mental, and emotional health. Whatever I'm dealing with, she offers support and positive encouragement, celebrating every win, big or small. She encourages me in between our scheduled workouts to get in a walk or other workout when possible. We discuss nutrition, any physical challenges I'm having, or just general stress from life, and Julie is a compassionate listener. She finds ways to deal with my limitations so that I still have challenging workouts. Julie is a truly wonderful and caring human being, and I'm so grateful that she's my personal trainer. Her comprehensive, client-centered approach is what makes her such an amazing personal trainer. She clearly loves her work, and it shows! I would recommend Julie in a heartbeat - and Hyatt Strength & Wellness - to anyone looking to get stronger, more confident, and build lean muscle. I couldn't be happier for finally making the investment in my health and fitness and working with a personal trainer at Hyatt Training. Everyone is super welcoming, helpful, encouraging and supportive - from owners Jeremy and Lee to my trainer Kristina Lucka to acupuncturist Adam Gawlak to nutritionist Elana Witt. It's not a big noisy gym with a ton of machines and TV sets. It's a safe, clean, comfortable place to make the most of your time dedicated to a workout designed just for you! Not only that, but they provide relevant, interesting content in their weekly emails about health and fitness-related topics. I'm just a few months into a return to strength training after years of just doing occasional cardio and then investing in a Peloton bike (which I still love). There's nothing like the personal attention and experience of working out with a trainer who is so focused on seeing you reach your goals. Kristina is very knowledgable about body mechanics, strength training and Pilates, and I always leave the gym feeling energized and better than when I arrived. My workouts are challenging and fun. I appreciate everyone at Hyatt Training for being so incredibly motivating and helpful to me!

Working with Julie Hamilton has been absolutely life-changing. For years, I struggled to lose weight and felt like I had tried everything—different gyms, multiple trainers, countless diets (paleo, keto, you name it)—with little to no success. Nothing seemed to work. That all changed when I started training with Julie. With her guidance, I lost 30 pounds, and the best part is I’ve kept it off for over two years. No gimmicks, no medications—just smart workouts and realistic nutrition coaching. What makes Julie stand out is her unique approach to both fitness and food. I’ve always had a complicated relationship with dieting and would either go too extreme or burn out quickly. Julie listened, understood my struggles, and helped me create a plan I could actually stick with. She taught me how to lift weights safely and effectively—something I had never felt confident doing before. Her workouts push you just enough, but you never leave feeling destroyed. I actually feel good after them! On top of her expertise, Julie makes the whole process enjoyable. I’ve never been someone who likes working out, but training with her is genuinely fun!!! She truly cares about her clients, and it shows in everything she does. She goes above and beyond!!! If you’re looking to lose weight, build a sustainable routine, and actually enjoy the process, Julie Hamilton at Hyatt Strength and Wellness is the trainer you’ve been searching for. Training with her has been the best investment I’ve ever made—and thanks to her, I finally feel comfortable in my own body again.

This place is special! Jeremy, the owner, and my personal trainer, Sydney, came along side me when I was at my weakest point, emotionally and physically, and helped me transform my life. The care and attention they gave to me and my body, which has many health issues, made me feel empowered and I am such a better person today for it. I lost nearly 50 pounds in the past 8 months with them and gained so much strength, mentally and physically- wow! I’m forever grateful for this journey with them!

I’ve been very happy with the Hyatt fitness studio since joining almost a year ago. It’s always impeccably clean, never overcrowded, and thoughtfully designed. The locker rooms are well-maintained, with added touches that make a real difference—like fresh towels and a well-stocked selection of toiletries including shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, and even toothbrushes. A special shoutout to my trainer, Travis, who has made my fitness journey genuinely enjoyable. He’s incredibly approachable and has a natural way of making you feel at ease, whether you’re just starting out or pushing for the next level. What I appreciate most is how he strikes that perfect balance between encouraging progress and staying mindful of safety. Every session feels purposeful and tailored, and I leave feeling both challenged and supported. Highly recommend both the studio and Travis if you’re looking for a clean, professional, and welcoming environment to work out in.

I've been a client/member of this gym since October 2023. I've been working with Freddy pretty much since day one and I look forward every week to getting his professional training advice, encouragement and feedback on my personal fitness. As an older member, I appreciate Freddy's attention to flexibility, strength, stamina and recovery and I feel (and look!) so much better than that person who walked into the gym last October. Jeremy, the owner, keeps his gym in great shape as well: plenty of equipment, a security coded front door, nice locker rooms with towels and extras, InBody machine, Hyatt merch, an informative e-newsletter, a great training app, easy to navigate web site and of course, hot coffee! Hyatt is a wonderful place to work out. Whatever your fitness level or goals, they are there to support you. I highly recommend this business!

Another 5 star recommendation for Hyatt Strength + Wellness! I've been a member for 18 months and my partner is going on 12. I've never had a personal trainer nor was a person who went to the gym. Once I decided I needed personal training to stave off my muscle loss, I did my research online and talked to a few gyms. Jeremy Hyatt was by far the most enthusiastic and engaged person I spoke with and all the benefits of the gym appealed to me. From day one of stepping into the gym I've been impressed with the professionalism and at the same time friendliness of everyone I've met. My trainer, Julie, has been instrumental in my development and keeping me accountable for the workouts I do outside of our personal training sessions. There is no doubt that the time I've spent at this gym has reversed my biological age. If your are in your 50s like me and think it's time to start getting your physical body back on track, give Jeremy a call. They have all the tools you need but it's up to you to take the first step.

I’ve gone to multiple facilities for personal training and this is by far the best one yet. The facility is probably the cleanest I’ve ever seen at any gym. Travis is the trainer that is working with me here and he has been a pleasure to work with. He is very knowledgeable about physical exercises as well as nutrition. The programs that he writes perfectly blend my goals and limitations so that I am consistently improving without discouragement or injuries. When taking both the physical training and diets seriously, I was able to accomplish my goals then set new ones to achieve next. I would highly recommend this facility and especially Travis to anyone considering improving themselves through personal training.

Going to this gym for the last year has been a phenomenal experience! I started attending the gym at the end of 2022 (early 2023). I had recently moved to the city and wanted to find a gym and a trainer I could stay with for a while, so I started going to two places, Hyatt being one of them. Within a few weeks, it was clear that Hyatt was the place to be! It feels comfortable to workout here, especially for someone who only kind of knew what he was doing. The owner of the gym, Jeremy, is almost always around or accessible. He's often seen training people, or welcoming people inside. He has a welcoming energy and a warm smile. They have a variety of trainers who are all very enjoyable people to workout alongside. Many (if not all?) have some form of strength training, conditioning, or even nutrition certifications (NASM, NCSA, etc). Some even have advanced education in physiology and kinesiology. The trainers prioritize people's individual goals by creating personalized workout routines each month, and continuously change weights, reps, or exercises as goals are met, all while ensuring that people are not being pushed beyond what's healthy (much better than some of the aggro gyms I have been to!) When I first signed up, I did trial runs with a couple of the trainers to find the right fit for my needs and my personality. I ended up choosing Travis! Travis specializes in strength training, but he is also Precision Nutrition certified. He and I have been working on building up my functional and traditional strength. He creates workouts that address my overall goals, and he calibrates any exercise to what my body needs that day. We've prioritized some neck and core stability for an injury that I had coming in. And let me tell you, I am making progress! He has surpassed all of my expectations (especially coming from some not so attuned trainers). Travis takes the time to check in with me, see where my body is that day, and then proceeds to challenge the hell out of me! He also loves to geek out on favorite movies, video games, or DND (if you're into that thing, training with him is a must!) He always has a story to tell. And occasionally those stories have been lifesavers in getting me to my next set of reps. Instead of sitting there staring at the weights dreading what's to come, he gets me so caught up in a story that, suddenly, I realize I've already started the next set and I'm crushing it! As of this month, we are 12 months strong and I'm enjoying every minute of it!

Hyatt Strength and Wellness is a wonderful place to learn and train. Steven has been wonderful to work with, and being stronger has helped my mood. Steven also helped me figure out a strength routine that works with all my ailing joints.

I’ve been training with Adam Gawlak at Hyatt Strength + Wellness since recovering from a broken spine in 2021. I’m the strongest I’ve ever been, and even better, Adam G. is a go-to acupuncturist for me, too! I’d never had sports-specific acupuncture treatment before working with Adam, and now I can’t recommend it strongly enough. After his treatments, I feel immediate improvement in my strength and mobility and it only continues to improve in the days following. Adam is excellent at explaining his process, thoughts, and recommendations. If you haven’t tried acupuncture for pain management or strength training, I highly recommend booking a consultation with Adam at Hyatt.

I've been going to Hyatt Strength and Wellness for over a year now. Travis specifically has been instrumental in helping me get back in shape. I went from near constant back pain and poor mobility, to feeling like my younger self. His patience, encouragement, and personalized approach has kept me at this gym. I highly recommend!

Halfway thru my second year at Hyatt Training and I'm glad to be back in the gym! I feel safe working out again and it's definitely helping my sanity to get back to a normal activity. There is even an outside location for your solo workout if you prefer. My trainer Adam is always motivating and I look forward to all of our workouts!
