Member's Notes
I just wanted to let all of you know how much belonging to Shapemakers has meant to me. Not only do I feel better than I did before I joined almost 6 years ago, but my doctors have also noticed a significant improvement in my overall health and they keep asking me what I’ve been doing to exercise and say to keep it up because it is definitely working. It’s easy to follow their advice because I love coming here!

I love Shapemakers! To date, I have gone from a size 20 to a size 10! My family, friends, and coworkers are very impressed with the results. There is no hocus pocus, no tricks or gimmicks, just old fashioned sweat. I can truly say that every drop of sweat, every second at Shapemakers has been worth it. I love my new shape and the way I look and feel. I will continue to sweat, move, and enjoy this wonderful journey. I am appreciative of every instructor, I love them all. They are the best.
May you continue to have Vision and provide Hope.

Born underweight and overfed, I have been struggling with my weight all my life. I found Shapemakers when I moved to Fresno and joined shortly thereafter, but hardly ever came. After a divorce, I was depressed, disappointed, disgusted and angry with myself. At only 5’ 5”, I was at an all time high of 250 pounds. I hardly even recognized myself.
Determined not to let life get the best of me, I began to finally use the gym membership I’d had for years. The more I worked out the better I felt. The better I felt, the harder I worked out. The harder I worked out, the better my mood was and the smaller my dress size became. In two years of being faithful to my workout, and slowly changing my eating habits, I dropped 100 pounds and went from a woman’s size 22 to a 6! At 53 years old, I am the slimmest I have ever been.
My potential is reached every time I come in to Shapemakers. I love this place!

My caregiver suggested I participate in low-impact water aerobics classes after my stroke. When I began my first class at Shapemakers, I had to be helped into the pool at the shallow end and hold onto the sides while doing all of the exercises. The instructor was kind enough to write directions for the movements on paper so that I could practice the moves from my wheelchair at home. After just six months of these classes, I am able to participate in all of the exercises; I am out of the wheelchair and only occasionally use a walker! Progress, really good progress!

I greatly enjoy my experiences at Shapemakers. The regular exercise helped get me out of postpartum depression, I believe. It also relieved other stresses that seemed to contribute to a persistent backache. Also, the staff is always extremely nice, helpful, and supportive. I have never felt out of place or unwelcome. Thank you so much for the services you provide, you do a great job.

Our arms, legs, and tummies say thank you for putting us back in the circuit room. All of me says ‘thanks’ to you too!

I did the pool for four years and now I am loving the circuit room and making great progress. I love the fresh flowers and cleanliness also. Girls (staff) have always been very helpful and pleasant.

The kickboxing/yoga class is great! The instructor does a fine job. I promise to attend faithfully.
~T.P. & D.D.
The locker room felt warmer today! Thank you for hearing our requests and responding as you can.

I have gone to other gyms and what was different was the smell. Shapemakers is clean and there are sprays and antibiotic cleaners at all the stations. I like going to an all women’s gym. I am impressed with all the equipment and the friendliness of the staff. After leaving, I feel energized and relaxed. Great place!

Thank you for the opportunity to work out at Shapemakers. I want to say that Shapemakers has been the best exercise facility I have ever worked out at. All the employees and instructors are gracious and wonderful at all times. I truly enjoy my time here.
