What is the secret to living a happy life?

If you look at the happiest people in the world they all have a few things in common. Their happiness does not seem to be dependant upon whether they have rock-hard abs, a million dollars in the bank, or live on a beautiful island. The happiest people are those that are healthy, those that are constantly improving themselves, and those with meaningful lives. My experiences of working with people from ages 2-90 years led me to believe we could all use a place that helps people to develop the skills to be truly happy! I wanted it to be a place that offers opportunities to people of all ages and body types to feel emence success and somewhere that inspires its members to become strong internally and externally!

So, I created The Circle...
Working out in a gym obviously provides the activity to be healthy and strong externally, but my goal was not to just have activity, but to have it be purposeful and beneficial. Not every body is the same, we all have different struggles, strengths, and schedules, so The Circle was created with that in mind. We are not like any other gym that you have visited. We have heart. We want you to be pushed to new limits but not at the expense of hurting yourself. We will listen to your limitations, work around them, and figure out ways to achieve your goals! We want to provide you with the tools, the resources, and the support to make healthy changes. We will stay on top of the latest research and findings to be your knowledgable source for health and nutrition to help give you guidance.  We will gladly share any tips and tricks for things that we have seen work for us and other clients, but we will not lead you on dead-end crash diets or dangerous health experiments.

The Circle will foster a positive environment where everyone is welcomed, respected, and a very valuable member of the team. We hope to be a place where everyone feels safe to try new things and challenge themselves to reach new heights. We hope that each workout empowers and inspires you to be better in all aspects of your life. We are a team that supports, encourages, and cares about each other. Not only do we build teamwork through workouts, but also through phillanthropy.

Our service opportunities are widely varied from sorting food at the food bank, to scraping algae at Barton Springs, and painting faces at a kids fair. As healthy able-bodied individuals, we offer our hands to give back, to share the experience of life with others, and to create pride for our community.  Our culture seems to be very intrinsic, where we are constantly focused on ourselves and rarely do we feel like we have the time to consider others or personally connect.  The service that we do builds empathy and helps others immensely, but it also is crucial in the plan to strengthen ourselves from the inside out. The Circle hopes to create invaluable opportunities for you, your family, and your neighbors to forget about your stressful lives and to take a second to consider others. We find the organizations, figure out the needs, and then offer you different ways to be impactful, without you having to do the legwork. 

The Circle is a gym, but not like your other gym. It is a place that offers numerous opportunities for you to be the best you that you can be
