This fitness and weight loss program is honestly the best gift I have given myself. It is motivating, stimulating and challengingeverything my old routine lacked. It jumpstarts my day and I have met a wonderful group of women from all walks of life. I receive dedicated personal instruction - I couldn’t ask for anything more in an exercise program. You need to do this for yourself.

I have been attending the Petaluma camp for close to 18 months. There are several aspects that make this camp different from all the other activities that I have tried through the years: It has the right combination of personal attention and the camaraderie of a group that continues to motivate you every day, it is held outside and for those of us who spend the day in office buildings it is a great way to enjoy the outdoors, it's constantly changing, no two workouts are the same, and after all this time, I'm still learning new exercises and moves. The most important aspect is that it has fantastic instructors who continue improving and adding new challenges while ensuring that we perform at our best level without injuries. I have gone down two dress sizes and become stronger. Yes, it is not easy to get up early in the morning, but the feeling of accomplishment after the workout keeps me going for the rest of the day. I tell my friends, if I can do it, ANYBODY can do it.

I was completely bored with exercising. I have exercised my whole life and needed a change. It's great to be excited about my workout program again. I'm beginning by 3rd camp soon!

The Adventure Boot Camp is simply the best! I particularly like the variety of activities and the sense of fun that's built into the program. I really felt like I was getting the maximum benefit out of the program. I highly recommend the program to anyone wanting to improve their fitness and overall health.

I have to admit I was a little skeptical about something entitled "Boot Camp". I envisioned a lot of yelling and not the most nurturing environment. However, since day one of camp, I have been nothing but thrilled to wake up and hang out with my newly acquainted friends. After two camps, I have learned so many new exercises that have stirred muscles I didn't know I had! The biggest change for me has occurred in my arms, hips and abs. I feel so much leaner and firm. I'm into a size 4 and my energy level has seen a significant boost. So, whether it's interval training with weights or yoga and Pilates, I look forward to every morning's new adventure.

Wow! What can I say about Boot Camp. I can say so much I don't know where to begin. I am 32 years old and have tried many different things to try and get myself into shape. Including working out with a personal trainer that cost me ALOT of money and just ended up hurting my knees. When I thought about doing Boot Camp the idea of getting up to workout at 5:30 in the morning freaked me out a little. Well, I am currently involved in my second camp. After the first 4 week camp I noticed a difference in my body composition that I never had prior. I have never really had a weight problem, yet was never really toned either. My legs and butt were on the flabby side, and as I get older I noticed it getting worse. Right now I feel so good in my clothes - I can't believe it. People have noticed a change in my body. My hips had started getting little fat pockets on the sides and those are GONE! I am amazed at the results of the training that John gives us. Getting up and working out at 5:30 has been easy to adjust to and believe it or not, I have lots of energy throughout the day. I Love Camp and John Ellis is one of the nicest guys I know. He is not your typical arrogant personal trainer type guy. He is awesome. He is so knowledgeable and so helpful in the morning to everyone in the camp. I can't say enough good things about him. I I love camp and I love what is happening to my body as a result of it!
Thank you for the dedication to all of us! You are awesome!

I've been a Boot Camper on and off since the first camp in 2007. I love the workouts, and have been delighted with the results -- more strength and endurance, leaner body and flatter tummy, and I sleep, eat and feel better. On my own, I just don't push myself to work as hard. The camaraderie of the group support and enthusiasm is a lot of fun. Jayme and Stacey are very knowledgeable, creative and supportive, and they make the workouts challenging and fun. I'm a big fan and highly recommend Boot Camp.

"I started Petaluma Bootcamp to get in shape for my upcoming wedding and it was the best choice I could have made. Petaluma Bootcamp helped me lose weight and inches while gaining strength and endurance. The workouts are constantly changing and challenge every level of fitness. I have never been so toned in my life! Needless to say I loved the way I looked on my wedding day and I am now a die-hard bootcamper! "

I arrived at boot camp overweight and out of shape - a true couch potato who loved food and hated exercise. But, I knew it was time for a change and John's boot camp sounded like just the cure. What I was really looking for was something to jump start me into better fitness and eating habits. What could be better than four weeks of intense fitness training with other women under the guidance of an experienced trainer? And the classes were great! The variety of activities and pace of the class made the hour fly by each day. Don't get me wrong, it was a lot of hard work. John pushed me harder than I would ever push myself working out alone. But he also allowed for the individual abilities of each participant. It didn't matter that I was the slowest or the weakest. What matters is that I worked at and improved at everything. And the results are impressive. During the four weeks, I lost eight pounds. I lost two inches each around my chest, waist, and hips. I also lost over one inch on each arm and leg. I improved my one mile run time by 10%. Plus, I have more energy than ever. Best of all, it has given me just the boost I was looking to attain. I'm now eating better, sleeping better, and exercising regularly. I have the hope and belief that I can continue my new fitness habits and my journey to a leaner and healthier me. And I'm looking forward to returning to future boot camps to challenge myself again.
Thanks!
