“ TRYBE is defined as“ finding community in fitness”, observes MaryKay Parce, President and Founder of TRYBE, a core training studio located in the Rocky Mountain Business Park.
“ I love my work at TRYBE,” states Parce.“ For years I have studied biomechanics, anatomy, and exercise science. I often smile when I hear clients describe me as a body whisperer or the‘ I-don’ t-know-how-she-knows-it’ personal trainer. But honestly, I simply listen. The secret to living a vibrant life is to feel joy in your heart, to express yourself creatively, to respect and honor who you are today, and to surround yourself with a community of like-minded people.”

Parce notes that she is often asked by clients“ Am I doing this right?” She tells them“ Your body is moving perfectly, every adjustment is an advancement.”
Parce states,“ In the United States we are obsessed with fitness, how much we weigh, and having to workout everyday to‘ get in shape’. For me, it’ s important to be kind to yourself and others. I wanted to find a way to create community and build a culture of diversity, strength, and acceptance through fitness.” eagle fitness
“ Eagle is an amazing place to live,” says Brandee Keddington, owner of Eagle Fitness, who moved from Salt Lake City 8 years ago.“ We love the sense of community and the great schools. We love this area and the people here.”
“ My passion is health and fitness in every single person,” states Keddington.“ Since I have three kids of my own I have really started focusing on childhood obesity. I am the current Mrs. Idaho United States and my platform is trying to help end childhood obesity one kid at a time. I want kids to have all the tools they need to live happy and healthy lives.”
Keddington relates,“ I helped Sherry Rogan( local Eagle resident) lose 50 pounds through exercise and learning healthy eating habits. Her life has changed as a result and Sherry has become my‘ mom away from home.’ Our members are like family.”
