In today’s fast paced, fast food, get it done now life-style, we get pulled into work, family, house, responsibilities, and all the things that come at you.

"I signed up for the Transformation Academy after going to Thrive Physical Therapy and being thrilled with the results of the care I received there. Like many people, I struggle with keeping my weight in check and staying motivated to exercise. Those were the primary reasons I enrolled in the program, but I learned so much more. 

The program teaches you how to set realistic goals, create new habits, change bad habits, and gain control of your physical and mental well-being. It’s not just about losing weight and exercising more, though—it’s more like a total life reset. The nutrition counselor and personal trainer were both amazing and the weekly group discussions with other “Thrivers” were always enlightening, entertaining, and interesting. I highly recommend the Thrive Transformation Academy to anyone wanting to achieve his or her highest potential, physically and mentally."

"I absolutely cannot recommend the Thrive Academy enough! I decided to give it a try when I realized that I was just going through the motions in life but not really being fulfilled with what I was doing and accomplishing. 

The Thrive Academy helped to change all that by helping me figure out my "Why" step by step. I was really surprised by just how much I was getting out of this program. There are tons of helpful discussions, worksheets, nutrition tips, exercises, problem solving and more. With the amount that you get in the program it is absolutely worth the value! This is definitely going to take some commitment and self reflection but so worth the investment in yourself! Thanks to Clarke and the Thrive team for helping me when I didn't even realize how much I needed it!

"I have struggled with my weight throughout my life. I have often been able to lose some weight, but inevitably, I always gain what I have lost, and then some. I realized that there must be more than just restricting calories & feeling deprived. I had began to realize that it wasn’t about just losing the weight, but about me as a whole person. I wanted to heal – physically and emotionally from the control food had over my life, so I signed up for the Transformation Academy.

It helped me identify goals that were important and helped me devise a plan to achieve those goals, one small, achievable step at a time. They supported, encouraged, listened, and focused on what was important to me, no matter how small it may have seemed.

Through the Transformation Academy was able to accomplish losing over 80 pounds, find the exercise plan that is right & attainable for me, regain control of my life, have the energy I’ve longed for, and finally feel good in my own skin.

I highly recommend the Transformation Academy to anyone wanting to gain control over any aspect of their lives, whether it be physical, mental, financial, or spiritual. The Team truly takes time to listen and help each person attain the goals that are important to them in a non-judgmental, supportive manner.

"My name is Kyle and I am a professional hockey player. I took a year off due to injury and worked with Clarke to recover during that time. Not only did he help me overcome my injury physically, but through the Transformation Academy he strongly emphasized the mental aspect as well, helping me deal with uncertainty in my life and refocus my priorities. We all have the tools but don’t always know how the use them. Thrive showed me how to use the tools to unlock the path to my potential. To anyone else dealing with a physical setback or trying time, I can’t recommend this program enough."

"I joined the program to refocus my energy towards my fitness, flexibility and nutrition. I have gone through cycles of fitness due to the intense nature of my profession. This was an effort to reboot my health practices for my current lifestyle. I could not rely on the things that were successful when I was a high school athlete nor could I recreate the long workouts that I undertook early in my career. This was an effort to retrain myself to get healthy and maintain good practices.

I now have a framework that I can refer to when I stumble on my process. Having the tools to evaluate what is pushing me off track has been incredibly helpful. Sleep, nutrition, stress, exercise all need to be in synergy and using the tools from the class have helped me track and balance these better.  

No wellbeing program is going to be easy. The Transformation Academy helps walk you through the various steps to take control of your life but you still need to put in the work to understand the science, to plan your progress, to think about your motivations. This is a program helps you getting out of the cycle of progress and failure. Come prepared to share with your trainers, work on your needs and put in the work to train yourself for the future. Its an investment in you, not an investment in a fitness program."

"I joined the Transformation Academy because I needed guidance, accountability, and the steps to achieve my goals, all the while battling what comes with chronic illness. The Transformation Academy did all that & more. 

Not only were my goals met, but the information gained through the Academy is helping me to set and reach reach new goals that are important to me. The wonderful team of professionals that are there to help you every step of the way was so valuable. I cannot recommend this program enough.."

"I think most people are hoping in life to become the best possible version of themselves they can be. At various times in life, due to age maybe, or life circumstances, that can look different, and the approach to it may be different. I recognize the value of the multi- modality approach, the support for growth, the grounding in the idea that nothing changes overnight and set backs are a norm.

I didn’t go into these 8 weeks with expectations of life changing, light bulb, moments. In fact, I never expected to show up each and every week. What I came away with were first valuable questions that I needed to ask myself; a forum (group and individual) to explore them; a transparency of those involved that rid the program of the “this is the way to nirvana” that many programs promise; tools that I actually was willing to try, that could also be fine- tuned and tweaked to fit my window on the world; and a sense of hope and promise that positive change, no matter what one brings to the table can be had."

"I began with physical therapy with Clarke and Chad. Both outstanding professionals that truly listened to my needs and help create a plan of action to help me. 

I participated in the Thrive Transformation Academy which was the comprehensive path I needed to take. For the first time I was not just about the physical exercises but about the mental wellness I needed to achieve. Working with all the professionals at Thrive through this program I gained so much knowledge about exercise, goal setting, beliefs, mindset, healthy habits, and self-compassion. After dealing with chronic pain for more than 2 years, I am finally gaining the confidence to live my life again.

All the professional I have worked with at Thrive have truly impacted my life & I cannot thank them enough."
