Fitness trainers Jesús and Maryori are powerfull partners, who have a reputation of living what they preach.
As cutting-edge personal development trainers in Costa Ballena, they are teaching the way to healthy living for body, mind and spirit.
In January 2016, they moved to their new premises on the ground floor of the building next to the Dome in Uvita. It has spacious and airy facilities, new machines, and showers, changing rooms, a reception and a Nutri-Bar.
“Our loyal customers who in recent years have become friends are deserving these improvements,” Maryori said. “Now,” Jesús added, “we were able to expand our practice calendar thanks to the addition of qualified instructors in the various disciplines. All instructors live in Costa Ballena.”
They offer classes in Muay Thai, Kali Filipino, Mixed Martial Arts (MMA), Wing Tsun, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Total Resistance Exercise (TRX), Spinning, Fitball and zumba, rhythmic gymnastics, belly dance, martial arts for children, physiotherapy, and nutrition.
“Classes are designed for both sexes and for all ages. On Saturdays, we offer training for children such as rhythmic gymnastics, and there is the possibility that one day these kids can participate in national and international championships.” “But what really are the benefits of exercising in a gym?” I asked.
“Well,” Jesús explained, “you can attain a targeted toning to reaffirm the problem areas of the body.
Another benefit is the stabilization of the body that promotes a healthy attitude. With practice you will accomplish muscular initiation and strengthening of the body in many ways.”
Jesús and Maryori, who also is a nutritionist, are thrilled, filled with excitement and enthusiasm with this new phase of their life and invite you to work-out with them at their new facilities at the Pura Vida Gym Uvita, where what counts are the sensations! And you for sure will experience them!
