Client Testimonials
The Power Center has not only made me a better athlete, it has made me a better person. With John and Dan's positive and encouraging attitudes, I strive to improve myself every session. The Power center has taught me that my body is capable of so much more then your mind tells you, and that by conquering your mind, one can achieve anything. This belief not only helps me in athletics, but more importantly in life, because I notice a positive change in myself once I started going to the Power Center. I have less trouble focusing and I am constantly challenging myself to achieve more thanks to the Power Center
~ Matt Wassel- People are always asking me to describe the East Meets West class but its hard to do because it is unlike anything else that is offered in any gym I have ever
been to. I have worked out my whole life and worked in the fitness industry for 14 years so I was looking for a workout that would challenge me.
Someone recommended the Power Center and its been 4 1/2 years and I can honestly say every time I take the class it challenges and pushes me and keeps me coming back. What is also amazing about the classes is that while they take the experienced exerciser to the next level they are also non-intimidating to the beginner.
The trainers are so motivational, knowledgeable and encouraging that they are able to inspire the clients to do more than they ever thought they could and keep them from becoming discouraged. Whether you are an athlete or a exercise novice, a cardio queen or a muscle head the East Meets West Class at The Power Center will change your level of fitness and change what you thought a real workout was.
~ Tara McGovern - Just to let you know, there has been an unexpected benefit to my training with you. Normally in golf, particularly at my age, the more muscle-bound you are the less distance you get (or else you're way off line). By virtue of the core training that you've been giving me, I find that I am more flexible, able to turn better in my golf swing, and the result over the last two years, without changing any of my equipment, has been an addition of about 5-10 yards on all of my shots (10 yards with the drives, 5 with the irons). In addition, I find that I am able to get out of the rough a little easier, due to my added upper body strength and flexibility.

The following is one of the definitions for intentions that I liked — A course of action that a person intends to follow; The goal or purpose behind a specific action or set of actions
We all know that this can be used for both good or bad - Look around and we’ll find plenty of ‘good’ ones in the World but unfortunately there’s a whole lot of ‘bad’ one’s out there as well. The word came up a few times over the past week and it prompted me to think about my own history of intentions - For the most part throughout the short time I’ve been on this earth I think mine have been pretty good and yes I’ve had a handful of bad ones that led me down a road I’d rather not go back down - even in reflection - intentionally doing bad things leads to nowhere you or I ever want to go - it’s a very dark, dangerous, and scary place and the karma or the effect of your cause will ultimately create misery and suffering.
Id rather discuss and focus on the good one’s - I love the old adage: we reap what we sow - unless a good intention is backed by right action and a burning desire to bring things to fruition chances are the end result will be a big disappointment for all those involved - all good intentions do not have positive outcomes which is why people like Aldous Huxley were quoted saying things like “Hell isn’t merely paved with good intentions, it is walled and roofed with them.” Many good intensions are given up on, disposed, and left behind - resulting in disappointment, discouragement, resentment and even some guilt can be thrown into the mix
I believe that a focused mind, a strong body, and a bright spirit will help us see our best of intentions through - all the way till we reach our goals where the fruits of our efforts are ripe for the picking - In order to give us the best opportunity for success it’s so important to take care of the whole person that we are mind, body, spirit, and emotion - May all of your dreams come true.
