If you’re uncertain about where to start your fitness journey or are ready to set new goals, personal training could be right for you.

Our personal trainers will evaluate your current status, teach you the fundamentals of exercise technique, and recommend particular exercises specific to your needs. They will teach you how to exercise properly in order to achieve weight goals, increase strength, and perform everyday functional movements to decrease the risk of injury. Keep reading to get to know a few of our 15 trainers and how they work with clients...

If you enjoy showing up to The J only to find a locked door and doing a sad walk back to your car… by all means — skip the app.

But if you’d rather know about holiday and other closings (like this Sunday when we're going to close the facility for the Food Fest), weather alerts, unexpected pool closings, and can’t-miss updates before you grab your gym bag, the Levite JCC app is your new best friend. It’s faster than the front desk phone, more reliable than group texts, and —best of all — will save you that sad stroll through the parking lot. Learn more and link to the app stores...
