A Word from our Members:

“I’m just a few months shy of 80 years old, and I’ve belonged to many gyms on both coasts.  Many is the morn when I have sat at home, dreaming up some excuse to skip the gym that day.  IAC is the first gym in my experience where that searching for an excuse never happens.  There are two reasons for this.  First and foremost, I look forward to seeing the many friends I have made there in my five years of membership.  They come from both staff and members.  My time at the IAC is almost as much social as it is athletic.  In fact, much of what I have learned about Whidbey comes from the men’s locker room!  The second reason comes from my age.  If for some reason I miss a couple weeks of working out, I start waking up depressed.  The gym has become a necessary “drug” for my sense of well being.

I am so grateful to the IAC for a chance to meet and greet wonderful people, not just once, but again and again.  When they become friends, the IAC has given me one of life’s most precious gifts!”

“My life without IAC…Well I wouldn’t know half as many great people
from our community that I now know, I wouldn’t have as much to look forward
to doing every day, and I definitely can say I’d be a lot flabbier. I work
hard and feel good at IAC (Nick’s spin class mantra!)”

After a severe dog bite and subsequent fall resulted in lymphedema, bursitis, and a fractured patella and ankle, Gail came to the Club first for Physical Therapy, then as a member.  “If it wasn’t for IAC, I would probably be bedridden for the rest of my life. I can never thank you enough!”
