personal training for your journey
EXPRESS Gratitude
We believe being grateful is the greatest driver of happiness and can greatly impact mental and physical health and wellbeing. We believe moments of mindfulness give us perspective on how far we’ve come and motivates us to carry on with purpose.
our values
Fitness Together was founded 25 years ago on the belief that without your health, nothing else matters. Our personal trainers are guided by these core values to empower those who have struggled to get healthy on their own with an exceptional wellness experience to help them live their best life.
Take Pride in Our Service
We believe in serving those around us out of love and respect by taking pride in creating a home for clients. We are passionate about providing a consistently exceptional experience that leaves a lasting impact.
Empower Commitment
We believe making changes turn into learned behaviors and become lasting commitments that shape your future. We are a part of your journey to help you define what you’re here for, the steps of commitment to get there, and hold you accountable to your goals.
Genuinely Care
We believe in building deep, meaningful relationships because we are your family. We are here to help you, cheer you on, empathize with you, empower you and give you hope. We go out of our way to take care of one another because that’s what family does and we are in this together.
Continuously Improve
We believe in progress over perfection. Nothing happens overnight so self-acceptance is your starting point to be 1% better every day. We are learners, do-ers, innovators and teachers who strive to change the mindsets of those around us.
a note from your Holland owner, Steve & Karen Vanderberg
Steve and I met in our college years at Cornerstone University and were married in 1991. In 2008, while our three kids were still in highschool, we purchased our first Fitness Together studio.
Whether running as a family, hiking or just going for a walk, our history together has been one of movement. Although I enjoyed exercising, I needed to increase muscle and improve my overall health. Working out in a big box gym environment proved to be very intimidating for me, giving me way too many reasons to avoid regular workouts. The Fitness Together setting however has provided the accountability, personalized fitness plan and one-on-one attention to my personal goals that I needed in order to move forward towards overall wellness - increasing strength, decreasing body fat, and increasing stability and cardio ability, allowing me to accomplish my personal goal of aging gracefully.
While accomplishing our own fitness goals is rewarding, Steve and I have found that helping others attain their personal fitness goals is even more gratifying. Come join us. Experience the difference our one-on-one attention and private setting can make for you. Discover the impact the “One client, one trainer, one goal” philosophy of Fitness Together can have on your life, your health, and your wellness. You won’t regret it.

I started working out after having breast cancer and heading to osteoporosis. My primary goal with FT was to increase bone density. I now have normal bone density.
