I took the plunge almost 6 months ago. A bit skeptical, but what a welcome. A friendly lady named Nancy gave a perfect explanation, beautifully worded without feeling like a sales gimmick. I signed up and I'm addicted...to working out in the cabins, the EMS machine, and the motivating words from the girls, but Nancy is the best for me. I'm a fan. Regards, Mireille M
