Everyone say hello to this week’s client of the week: Coco! Coco ended up at Tallgrass after she drove by and saw it one day, and decided to look up Tallgrass to see what we were all about. She contacted Shannon, and little did she know Tallgrass would impact her so much! Coco felt inadequate lifting weights at commercial gyms, and she wanted a comfortable, intimate setting to learn how to properly lift weights. This girl has become incredibly strong and one of the most seasoned lifters at Tallgrass! 💪 She loves to keep coming into Tallgrass because of the knowledgeable trainers and every week she learns something new! Although she has numerous exercises that she is fond of, a few of her favorites include barbell hip thrusts and lat pulldowns. When asked what her least favorite exercises were she didn’t hesitate to say Bulgarian split squats (isn’t that everyone’s least favorite?! Haha!) and side planks. Coco wants other people to know that Tallgrass is a welcoming space to all types of people, and she’s never felt uncomfortable or judged for having tattoos. It is a beautiful thing to witness different types of people coming in to work on their fitness goals. During her interview Coco said, “If you’re new, scared, and don’t know where to start, try Tallgrass! It’s been life-changing for me!” We love that your energy, Coco! 🩷

If you know Tallgrass, you know by now that we love the Ballard Center, a local non-profit that helps our community in so many ways. They offer a variety of services including no or low-cost early childhood education, rent and utility support, clothing and food pantries, and more!
Right now, the Ballard Center’s clothing closet is lacking in coats. Please help us help those in need by donating new or gently used coats of all sizes from kids 5T to adult XXL, but especially kids sizes!
As the temperatures get colder, we want everyone in need to be able to stay warm this season. We’ll be collecting coats until November 26th, so please bring what you can to the orange barrel located in our building.
Thank you for helping us help the Ballard Center!❤️

Introducing this week’s client of the week: Kelli! When we asked Kelli about her favorite thing about Tallgrass, she had more than one answer! She loves the community and how it’s a peaceful gym that’s not overcrowded. She also mentioned how Tallgrass exudes positive, supportive vibes. Kelli has been training with her personal trainer Scott for over a year and she can notice a difference in how she feels outside of the gym. She has more strength and balance for her stand-up paddle board and more stamina overall for more of her favorite activities which include hiking, kayaking, and other adventures. Kelli also mentioned that by working out at Tallgrass with a personal trainer, she can open pickle jars without asking for help! 😆That is always a win! Kelli’s personal trainer Scott keeps her motivated in progressing towards her goals because Scott gets really excited about her reaching new milestones. Kelli describes Scott as calm and sincere, so when he gets excited about her reaching a goal, Kelli knows it’s sincere and makes her want to work towards the next one. Scott also allows Kelli to listen to Taylor Swift when she meets a new goal, which is absolutely a reason to keep working hard! 🎶🩷 Kelli wants people to know that if you think you’re not a gym person, try Tallgrass! Thank you for choosing us Kelli! We’re so glad you’re here!

Let’s hear it for our client of the week this week: Marty! In November 2023, Marty was experiencing increased knee problems. She needed a personal trainer to assist in managing her situation and strengthen the areas surrounding the knee for a possible knee replacement. She contacted Shannon who owns and operates Tallgrass and she immediately said “You need Holly!” Marty loves that Holly focuses on functional strength training that can translate to other everyday activities. Marty appreciates Holly being a stickler for form, and how Holly incorporates pelvic floor exercises into the workouts. Marty highly recommends Tallgrass to anyone looking to improve their health and fitness. Marty had her knee replaced in May 2025, and thanks to Holly and Marta (our Tallgrass Massage Therapist), the recovery time exceeded her expectations! 🙌 We’re so glad we could help shorten your recovery time Marty, and we’re happy to continue to support your fitness journey! 💛

Meet Jenny M., our client of the week! Jenny M. ended up at Tallgrass after she had been seeing Marta for massages for 20+ years. Marta suggested Jenny give personal training a try in addition to her regularly scheduled massages, and Jenny met with Shannon and decided to start her fitness journey! Her favorite thing about working with a personal trainer is the accountability and she loves that someone cheers her on (which her trainer Elizabeth loves to do!). She really loves learning more about optimal ways to improve her strength and mobility. Jenny has shifted from “making” herself get to Tallgrass to work out to looking forward to her sessions and prioritizing them into her schedule. Since coming to Tallgrass, she’s amazed at the improvement in her flexibility and strength. When asked what her favorite exercise is, Jenny said “pulling things and throwing things.” 😆 To expand on this, she loves pulling the sled, throwing the medicine ball, and anything that makes her feel like the strong woman she is! 🏋‍♀️ Keep getting after it Jenny!

It’s our client of the week’s birthday today! Everyone meet Jennie B.!! 💍 She’s getting married in September and we couldn’t be happier for her! 💍 Tallgrass and Jennie’s personal trainer, Mindy, has helped Jennie in many ways including building her core to alleviate lower back pain and help with balance. Mindy provides Jennie with accountability and motivation to help her get stronger each session. Jennie’s favorite thing about Tallgrass is that it’s much quieter and allows the flexibility of one-on-one time with her trainer. She feels accepted and comfortable at Tallgrass. Jennie wants others who might feel intimidated to workout at a gym to come check out Tallgrass! She wants others to know that it’s a quieter, woman-owned gym and when you work with a personal trainer, you can work out on your own as well! We’re so happy to be a part of your fitness journey, Jennie! 🫶 Congratulations on your upcoming wedding and happy birthday! 🎂🎉🎁

Our client of the week, Marie, recently had a birthday! 🎉 This picture was taken on her birthday, and she even did a special workout where she did as many reps or seconds as her age! Marie says since she’s been working out at Tallgrass with her personal trainer, Marianne, she’s is getting stronger every week! 💪 Her absolute favorite exercise to do is the deadlift, and her least favorite exercise to perform is split squats. Marie’s favorite Tallgrass plant is the hot pink echiveria. Marie loves the vibe at Tallgrass and she feels like we are all working together. We couldn’t have said it better! Thank you for celebrating your birthday with us, Marie, and for always bringing your best to every workout!🩷

We are so excited to introduce this week’s client of the week! Meet Erick! Erick ended up at Tallgrass after he was looking for a new gym to work on his fitness and wellness goals. He saw our glowing reviews online, and when he came through the doors at Tallgrass, Erick knew this was his new gym home. He came to us with some shoulder pain after an injury, which his trainer, Scott, has been able to help alleviate! Scott also provides guidance and motivation, which has been instrumental in Erick achieving his goals of getting back into working out safely and getting stronger! Erick’s favorite exercises are squats and deadlifts because they are complex, full-body exercises, but the movements are also applicable to everyday tasks such as picking up something off the floor, lifting heavy objects at home to a new location, etc. We couldn’t agree more Erick! Erick’s favorite Tallgrass plant is the Jade plant (he also has a jade plant at home!). Erick wants new people to know that the atmosphere at Tallgrass is just so welcoming, and you don’t feel judged here. Thank you for choosing us, Erick! Keep crushing your goals! 💪💪

Meet Deb! She is our client of the week and we are so happy to have her! Tallgrass has helped her both inside and outside of the gym to become stronger, which is a huge confidence booster! Deb says that she’s 72yrs old and loves being old because of her wisdom (haha - told interviewer to include this “haha” 😆), but it takes work to not physically decline fast. After having numerous surgeries and physical therapy appointments in the past, Deb made the courageous decision to get into a fitness routine and stick to it! Once this strong woman decides on a goal, there is nothing that can stop her! Deb does not have a favorite exercise per se, but she LOVES the cable machines and anything where she gets to lift heavy. 💪 Deb admires all the plants at Tallgrass but if you ask Deb what her favorite plant is at Tallgrass, she will say “Does the water cooler count?” 😆 Although Deb recently started her journey at Tallgrass, her trainer Elizabeth is amazed and so proud of what Deb has accomplished already! Keep on lifting those weights Deb! You got this! 💪
