I Love the Atmosphere and Decor…
I joined TELOS by having winning the bid in a silent auction for a temporary membership that the club had generously donated to my favorite nonprofit organization, the Dallas Children’s Advocacy League. Shortly before this fortunate event my husband, Haiden Turner, and I had just switched from one of the big name fitness franchises to another gym that had been built close to our house.
Haiden continued on at the neighborhood gym, while I enjoyed the fabulousness of TELOS thinking to myself that he was happy with being so close to home and his office, but worrying that he was
missing out. Then one day he proclaimed “Fitness is just not right for us, we’ll never meet anyone, and the crowd there is actually scary.” What a relief! So, I immediately confessed my total happiness with TELOS, and Haiden agreed that he should join too, and that we should make our membership permanent.
I love the atmosphere and decor! My trainer (the drill sergeant) Jessica Gore keeps me focused on my workout plan, and the Power Pilates mat and equipment classes and individual sessions give me variety that keeps you consistently coming to the club. Haiden is a Pilates fanatic going to at least three classes a week, and doing a weekly Yoga class as well. We both often take advantage of the convenience and healthfulness of the Cafe for a quick bite (the turkey tacos can’t be beat).
I’m an Aesthetician and owner of Valerie Faye Beauté Salon in Preston Hollow where I spend a lot of my work time bending over clients and doing repetitive actions with my hands and arms. Haiden runs Winged Disc Technologies, an accounting /technology consultancy, and is hunched over a computer most of the day. We both needed exercise programs designed to help with the aches and pains, posture, and flexibility challenges we face. TELOS has done it for us. It’s not just a place to go lift weights and do cardio; with the personal assessment, MAT, massage, and all the rest it’s so much more!
We’ve always been big on getting regular exercise, but it really helps to have a club that offers so much, and is also so pretty!
