Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is AFS and how is it different from other gyms in Ann Arbor?

A: Unlike traditional “gyms,” our team of Exercise Physiologists, Registered Dietitians, and Health Coaches takes full responsibility for guiding your journey. They meet you where you’re at and help guide you to your health, wellness, weight loss or fitness goals.. Each member is assigned to a dedicated Health Coach & Exercise Physiologist who oversees the entirety of their program (in and out of the gym).  This ensures our members achieve results and overcome obstacles along the way. On top of that, all of our workout classes are supervised by a degreed and Registered Exercise Physiologist, providing a safe and effective exercise experience. It’s not just fitness. It’s your care team for sustainable change.  

What makes us truly different? The people. We’re not a sea of headphones, “fit-fluencers” and selfie-photos.  It’s a tight-knit, compassionate community where you’re acknowledged by name upon walking in.  You’re asked about what college your daughter decided to move forward with or how you’re managing the stress of navigating the health of your aging parents.  You’ll more than likely create long lasting, meaningful relationships with other members going through a similar walk of life.  We believe that better health isn’t just about movement or nutrition, it’s about how vibrantly you can “do-life”. Learn more about your AFS Care Team here.

A: Definitely. Many of our members are beginners or getting back into fitness. Our expert coaches meet you where you’re at and build a plan that’s right for your body, goals, and lifestyle.

 A: We offer both! Our two main classes—Strength Solutions and Fitness Solutions—blend the energy of a group with the customization of personal training. We also offer one-on-one sessions when more support is needed.

 A: Just book a free consultation to meet with a coach. We’ll talk through your goals, answer questions, and give you a tour of our Ann Arbor studio. No pressure, just clarity.
