TESTIMONIALS 

I had just moved to California from Texas and my new roommate asked me if I wanted to try kickboxing. I had no idea what to expect or how much it would change my life. I have played soccer for most of my life and never really had a problem with my weight. But, once I started college, I stopped playing soccer and focused mainly on school, and completely neglected my body.

There is something really incredible at IMC. This power to do anything, you just HAVE to put your mind to it. Arash and Lauren really care about their students, they learn your name right away, make you feel very welcome and notice if something is wrong and ask as soon as you walk in the door. The one quote that will stick with me for the rest of my life is by Arash, “You can make all the excuses in the world, but everyone has had a long day, everyone is tired, BUT you are here working out and making time for yourself.” Seriously think about it, WHO cares if your tired, everyone had a long day, but you are the one setting time aside for yourself.

I’ve lost +23 lbs, I went from a size 14 to a 8/6, and I’ve lost a total of 47.5 inches. My hips went from 43” to 28”. IMC has changed my life, this place has really made me appreciate my body and how important it is to take care of it. I am currently enrolled in the the kickboxing/Pilates classes and have done the the fit & lean program. Thank you Arash and Lauren, for amount of encouragement, energy, and the mental support from you guys!!

The moment I stepped into IMC I heard the loud noises of fists striking leather, the smell of sweat and I have to admit I wondered, what was my sister thinking? I first met Arash who told me “I know you’re going to like this class I see it in your eyes.” And I thought alright, I’ll give it a try. After the Pilates class I was exhausted and I spoke to Electra about signing up. Who knew that this would be one of my greatest decisions I’ve ever made.  I never expected exercise would influence the way I think, my eating and changing my bad habits to healthy decisions. I started out at 22 inches larger and 10 pounds heavier. I never noticed how the weight crept up on me. Before I started I was very disappointed in myself and my confidence level was very low. But once I began the classes I noticed the inches falling off, my confidence level moving up, and Arash, Lauren, and Argyrie not only being my teachers, but becoming my friends, mentors, and people who have become part of my family. I have taken other kickboxing classes before, but nothing has truly worked until IMC. I would like to say thank you to Arash, Lauren, and Argyrie, I honestly do appreciate what IMC has done for me. IMC has changed my life tremendously, and who knew that being fit could be so much fun!

   When I turned 40 last year and I looked at pictures from the party and I couldn't believe how bad I looked. I decided to do something about it. I tried a couple different programs and wasn't seeing the results I waned. A good friend of mine was going to IMC and she looked great so I thought I would try it. I jumped right into the Fit and Lean Program. I didn't think I would be able to keep up with a young class of women that were closer in age to my son than me. There was a lot of pain but the encouragement from the instructor, Lauren, and all my classmates kept me going. All the women in the class push each other, because if you succeed they will succeed also. In my fist 10 weeks I had great results. I lad lost 30 inches. I was so happy with my compliments I was receiving from my friends and family I decided to go for a second round. Now I have lost 6 % of my body fat, 20 pounds and 35 inches. I love the personal attention and push I get from Lauren to work harder. I'll never look like I did at 20 again but I am going to be a sexy 41 year old!

 I remember the first day I came to IMC it was because my friend Argyrie invited me to come and try out her new class. The only reason I came was because she sounded so excited to be teaching and I just wanted to show her some support.  I had no intention of signing up because I already had a gym membership and I could take a similar class there, plus all work out classes are the same.  When the class was over I was ready to tell Argyrie, if she asked, that I wasn’t interested. But then all of sudden I was introduced to Lauren and after about 15 minutes later I was signed up and on my way home thinking “what did I just do, this is not going to work I already tried something like this, its not going to work!”  Well now four and half months later I have dropped 20 lbs and went from a size 12 to a very loose size 8. I couldn’t have done this without IMC, the energy and encouragement that’s comes from this place really made a difference for me. I don’t think I can ever express enough gratitude to Argyrie, Lauren, and Arash for what they’ve helped me achieve. Thank you IMC you really made a difference in my life!

Testimonials are like infomercials; sometimes corny, over exaggerated and telling consumers that this is a product they cannot live with out. Well, chicks can live without the Bumpit; pageant-hair is so 2006. Guys can still achieve a shinny car without the Sham Wow. And even though we’ll miss Bill Mayes, do we really see a need for OxiClean?!?!? This is more than a testimonial. Joining IMC is a decision that will change your life forever. If this is something you are considering, it is absolutely something you cannot live without.

Before joining IMC I was 30 inches larger than I am today. Think about it, 30 inches: 76.2 centimeters or for those that love food, 2 ½ foot long subs!

After my first day, I knew that this is something I could stick with. Not only did I change physically but mentally as well. Arash and Electra are so positive and energetic that they make every class fun! And when you think you can’t do another sit-up or swat, they push you even further.

 I’m so happy that I started the Fit and Lean program and as long as I have the ability to do so, I plan on sticking with it. Not only do I feel like I’m in better shape; I’ve made some great friendships here and friendships that I hope to keep for a very long time.     Thanks again Arash and Electra!
