COMMITMENT
Once you start a program, it takes a ton of commitment to get results. This is where Boot Camp helps you out. If you want to be good at something, "you've got to work for it,you've got to sweat for it, you've got to bleed for it, and you’ve got to want it." All Boot Camp classes demand that you commit yourself 100% to doing your best. Wait until you see the results!

DISCIPLINE
It takes discipline to be successful. Boot Camp provides a game plan for success in your physical fitness, mental toughness, and emotional well-being. Topics such as fitness, nutrition and stress reduction are all integrated into Boot Camp. It takes 21 days to create a habit. Boot Camp will help you change your habits and your life!

EFFORT
We're looking for 100% effort. If you're not willing to provide it, we'll get it out of you. Come ready to play and good things will happen. Boot Camp's positive, motivating environment will provide the backdrop for you to expend every ounce of effort you have. Plus, you're going to need it to get up 80 flights of steps, complete a "recon mission" given by your trainer, complete a shuttle run in a pre-determined time, or to do "dirty dogs" until someone can tell me where Paris Island is located.

TEAMWORK
There is no "I" in team. There is no "me"? It doesn't matter whether you are first in a group or last in a group. It is all about unity and teamwork. Carrying a raft above your head. Carrying a log on your shoulders. Leap-frogging over your entire team. Singing Boot Camp chants with your team. You are as strong as your weakest link. Emphasis is on encouraging all Boot Campers to finish. We don't care if you're first or last - Boot Camp will help you to be your best and to be a strong link on your team.

CAMARADERIE
There is nothing like the exhilaration of accomplishing a task together. When you sweat, bleed, and laugh together, it builds camaraderie. When you can lean on your partner and trust that he or she is giving it their all, a bond develops that can't be broken. Boot Camp builds camaraderie and the Boot Campers just love it.

SWEAT
Jump Squats, 8 count body builders, flutter kicks, skater plyos, beach runs, sprints, dive bomber pushups, pull-ups, mountain climbers, and the list goes on and on. You bet your bottom dollar you're going to sweat. You're going to sweat like never before. This class can burn up to 1,200 calories per workout. You will be pushed to your max and you will love every minute of it. There are no short cuts. If you want something in life, you've got to work for it. You will work for it in this program and you will love the results!

MOTIVATION
Do you have a problem getting motivated? Do you have a problem staying motivated? Do you get bored with your workouts? This class will wake up your body, mind, and soul and change around your entire routine. Chanting, running in cadence, and a ton of spirit and energy fill this action packed class. Boot Camp is the ultimate in motivating you to new levels.

DEDICATION
Do you have what it takes to be a champion? A champion is someone who works extremely hard to tap out his or her gene pool. A champion has heart. A champion overcomes challenges. If you are lazy, don't work hard on your own, eat poorly, and need help rededicating yourself, Boot Camp will inspire and motivate you to get back in gear. Play like a champion...finish like a pro!

P.R.I.D.E.
Personal Responsibility In Daily Efforts. When you take care of the small stuff every day, the big stuff with take care of itself. Treat each day as a gift and make yourself better everyday. Attempt to become breathless at least once a day by solid physical training. When you workout with motivating, dynamic Boot Camp exercise, your attitude, self-esteem, personality shine brighter than the shoes you'll be wearing to class. Boot Camp epitomizes how you should live your physical life and gives you exemplary discipline to help your professional and personal life. Take PRIDE in your actions and your life will shine.
