Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, we offer a variety of group fitness classes perfect for a variety of needs.

There is no formal childcare however, children are allowed to come in with their parents/guardians.  You’ll find we have equipment options perfectly sized for children of all ages to join in the fitness fun. Ages 0 - 4yrs are free, 5yrs - 17yrs require children memberships. 

We don't have showers or lockers but we do have two changing rooms, two bathrooms, and cubbies to store your items. 

Why do you require a referral or consultation before joining?

Because American Alpha Training is a family-supportive gym, we often have kiddos working out alongside their parents. To keep everyone safe and comfortable, we limit Open Gym memberships to individuals who come through a referral or complete a consultation with us. This helps us ensure that every new member understands our space, our expectations, and our safety guidelines.

Is this policy meant to keep people out?

Not at all! The goal isn’t exclusivity — it’s safety and community connection. We’ve built a close-knit environment, and the referral/consultation step helps us maintain that warm, safe, and respectful atmosphere for families and members of all ages.

What happens during a consultation?

A consultation is quick and easy. We’ll:

• Meet you, get to know your goals, and learn how you plan to use the space
   
• Go over our safety expectations
   
• Make sure our gym layout and equipment are a good fit for your needs
   
• Answer any questions you have about memberships, classes, or training
   

I’m new to town and don’t know anyone yet. Can I still join?

Yes! If you don’t have a referral, a consultation takes the place of one. It’s simply our way of ensuring new members get a proper introduction to the space.

Does this apply to personal training, too?

Personal training doesn’t fall under the referral rule — availability just depends on scheduling. If you’re interested in PT sessions, we’ll help you find a time that works.

Why is safety emphasized so much?

Because we’re a gym that welcomes families and children, maintaining a safe environment is our top priority. Meeting new members ahead of time helps us protect that atmosphere while still growing our community in a thoughtful, intentional way.
