“I generally won’t write reviews being introvert but this class deserves it as I've had the opportunity to visit numerous gyms across different states like New York, New Jersey, Chicago, and California, but none compare to the exceptional experience I've had at ARC Performance in Wheeling, IL, particularly under the guidance of Trainer Neil Tews.<br>The fitness classes offered here strike a perfect balance of simplicity and effectiveness. Neil's approach makes even the most challenging movements feel enjoyable and accessible, yet they result in an incredible sweat-inducing, calorie-burning workout. What sets Neil apart is his hands-on involvement; he actively participates alongside us, demonstrating each move and fostering a sense of camaraderie.<br><br>One of the highlights of his classes is the concluding stretching session, which leaves me feeling both invigorated and relaxed. The cherry on top is the energizing music playing in the background, elevating the overall experience to something truly extraordinary. ARC Performance and Neil Tews have undoubtedly set the standard for fitness excellence. Deshraj”

“I have worked out- sporadically- for years. But the Exercise Coach in Gurnee actually has me LOOKING FORWARD to the next work out! Nick, the trainer is very knowledgeable, friendly and motivating. And the best part- is it's EFFECTIVE!!! I was incredulous that only 20 minutes, two times a week, could really make a difference- but I have definitely built muscle, and seen my metabolism raised! I highly recommend it.”
