I had an excellent experience at Unite fitness retreat. I can’t say enough about the program and the staff. The scenery was outstanding. I would highly recommend it to people who are ready to make a lifestyle change in relation to their physical and mental health. I would go back in a heartbeat.

To put it simply, there is no place on earth like Unite Fitness Retreat. Whether it be the encouraging environment of likeminded people, the coaches who are equally knowledgeable as they are enthusiastic, the impossible-to-get-sick-of mountainous location, the wide range activities working both the heart and the soul, the coaches, and did I mention the coaches? - I have a difficult time believing that it gets any better than Unite. If you are reading this now, it is likely that you are in the same place that I was not so long ago- that is, doing extensive research on all types of retreats and trying to find your perfect fit. And like me, you may have already stumbled upon programs in places everywhere from California to Thailand, Florida to Spain, Tennessee to Hawaii - essentially, you’ve officially realized that the sky is the limit. Still, you may find yourself remarkably and bafflingly drawn to a retreat in Utah. To begin, the location could not be any more perfect. I can assure anyone who may hold concerns which stem from watching Sister Wives that you will likely not come to face with that side of Utah. The Unite “headquarters” are walking distance to the facilities where we spend every morning, within close distance to most hiking trails, across the street from the buzzing Vivant Arena, close to plenty of parks and public spaces, and there are tons of great places to shop at nearby, too. There’s so much to explore and it’s super easy to get around. It’s difficult to get bored! Now speaking of the program itself- every day is very structured, and they stick to the same weekly schedule. The mornings include a mix of group circuit training, strength training, and cardio. They take us boxing once a week too, which is a crowd favorite! The coaches create such a fun environment during the group training - they’re always blasting great tunes, cheering everyone on, and they’re so knowledgeable and excited to help out with anything and everything. And they’re just the type of people you want to be around🙃 “Lunch and Learn”s are always super awesome and informative. And I can say confidently that throughout my six weeks, I learned something new every single day. The coaches discuss everything from grocery stores to weight lifting to cognitive dissonance. The coaches are especially great at creating an open environment and often times, the lessons are interactive and even conductive towards ones’ personal questions or goals. Every day, a hike follows lunch. The hikes were personally my favorite part of every day. Each trail is almost as challenging as it is beautiful. Utah is truly a magical place to connect to nature! The rest of the day following the hikes are designed around recovery and mindfulness. They offer a variety of yoga and stretch classes which I always found to be so relaxing and helpful. There are also wonderfully relaxing spa services available in place of the classes!! The tension massages are particularly awesome. The emphasis on intertwining mindfulness with physical goals has personally been life changing! The type of person that goes to Unite is the type that wants to work on themselves in any capacity. The harmonious environment is so comforting, supportive, and motivating, because beyond showing up for myself every day, there is also a family-like community of people that I felt responsible towards showing up for. It’s so easy to find people to connect with and I still keep in touch with plenty of my Unite pals on a regular basis. We even have a support group chat where we share updates on our journeys. It’s super cute🤓 So, If you’re thinking about joining Unite, stop thinking about it and just do it. The gains are worth more than any doubt or excuse not to go. And the food is fabulous and in abundance, in case you were wondering. Every day I spent there was truly a blessing and I can’t wait to go back soon and continue my progress!! Hope this review was helpful and inspires anyone wondering or thinking about going to take that step :)

Unite is honestly one of the best things I have ever done for myself. The whole program is fantastic and you can decide what works for you and what doesn’t. I went in wanting a reset on my habits and my mind. I came out of it with a bunch of new friends, a totally new perspective on food and exercise, and just so much positivity. It exceeded my expectations in every way. Mornings are full of different types of exercise and afternoons provide hiking and yoga opportunities. Matt (who runs the show) is just so good at what he does, and really takes the time to get to know people and their individual needs. Laird, the other head trainer, is one of the funniest people I’ve ever had the privilege to meet, and is insanely good at motivating people. Everyone who works here is amazing and they make every day more fun and more interesting than the last. 10/10 I would recommend you come to Unite.

Frustrated by letting my healthy habits lapse during the pandemic, I discovered Unite Fitness using Dr. Google and couldn't be happier. The retreat is a wonderful mix of gym-based strength training, led by kind, knowledgeable trainers, and inspiring hikes in the beautiful mountains around Salt Lake. I was fortunate to be there for 3 weeks as the leaves changed, so the outdoor workouts were especially wonderful. An unexpected bonus was the people I met, who all felt like kindred spirits from wildly different backgrounds -- all united in a shared mission. I wholeheartedly recommend Unite to anyone who wants to get back on the path to healthy habits -- and yes, shed pounds and inches in the process. Hats off to all the trainers and chefs who work so hard to give every client a special experience.

I must have researched every fitness retreat in the country before deciding on Unite. This was a big decision for me as I needed a major health transformation. Unite exceed my expectations by a mile. The program is fantastic and well thought out, the staff are lovely and professional. I left the retreat feeling inspired and motivated about my fitness and health, something I'd been missing for some time. I would highly recommend to anyone and everyone!

I feel super grateful to have participated in Unite's program. Their holistic and strength-based approach helped give me the kick start I needed towards my health-related journey. I look forward to my continued health and wellness growth. Thanks Unite!

I spent quite a bit of time searching for a fitness retreat but I kept coming back to Unite. It was the best decision I’ve ever made. I had reached a point in life where what I was doing to get healthy , just wasn’t working . I’m a very active person but as we age it’s just hard to keep fit. Unite was from day one the perfect fit for me. I wanted structure and people to put me in the right direction. I didn’t have to figure anything out. It was all done for me . The trainers !!! Oh let me say a word about Matt and Laird -Outstanding! They motivated me and kept me doing things I had never believed I was capable of doing. It was hard work but each day I got stronger! After week one I started feeling for the first time , I was changing. Inside and out. These trainers are why this program works. I owe them so much! They changed my life. I’m home now and I continue to lose weight and gain muscle. I feel 10 years younger! Thank you to Matt and Laird and Unite Fitness . I’ll never go back to the old me. You are my hero’s!!

Enjoyed my time with the Unite team in Utah. The activities were all achievable and led by Matt and Laird, both of which bring a wealth of experience, knowledge and compassion to each participant. Thanks guys, for putting up with my request for a shoe horn!
