Fitness & Gyms in Morehead City, NC

“Colleen is a very knowledgeable and friendly coach! She takes the time to explain how to properly and safely do each move and then encourages you along the way. There’s ZERO judgement (from her and the group) on how quickly or slowly you finish each round, and she’s right there to help you modify if you need to. She cares about the people who walk through their doors and will make sure to set you up for success!”

“I’ve been taking barre classes throughout my time in NC, and overall I feel somewhat indifferent about this studio.

I think the barre classes would benefit from mic’d-up instructors, as it can sometimes be difficult to hear cues clearly. I also think some instructors may need additional training before leading classes independently. I recently attended a class where the instructor frequently paused between movements saying “let’s see…,” asked us to remind her which movement sequence we had done on the other side, and constantly changed the music throughout class which also didn’t fit the movement. There is also not much of a warm up or proper cool down as compared to other studios. It was just a get up and go vibe.

I understand everyone has to start somewhere, but clients are also investing significant money into memberships and classes, so consistency and preparedness make a big difference in the experience.”

“Charlie and Karen are awesome. They are really good about answering any questions you have related to health, nutrition and working out. You get out of the classes by exactly what you put into them.”

“Carolina Elite is great! I took my 6-year-old son to a few of the open gyms for play, which he loved, but he was too apprehensive to try much.
I enrolled him in ninja classes and after just 2 sessions with Coach Blake, he is doing flips and climbing on higher bars and doing all sorts of things he wasn’t confident he could do before. Coach Blake is great at encouraging the kids to try new things and see what their bodies can do and it’s awesome to see the confidence it’s building in my son already and it will definitely help him build strength.
He’s also super excited to go each week!
The facility is safe and well supervised with a good variety of activities.”

“These experiences aren't neccesarily about the gym itself, but the amazing programs they have had for many years within the sports center and the newer programs that have become available as well. My daughter, who is now 8 and I heard about the swim grant through my dear friend and employer, Erin Gordon of Gordon's Family Service Center in Otway/ Beaufort. My daughter was in kindergarten and these were our very first years moving to Carteret County from California to start anew. Being a single mother and trying to gain more motivation, self confidence to be confident for my child and to give my child their own confidence and experiences was my main goal. The entire community of Carteret County has been a HUGE blessing in these areas of life. The amount of courage it took for both my daughter and I to take these steps and physically just do it, has been so much more achievable through the experiences with you in them:) To the Sports Center's Swim Team Instructor, I apologize, I still dont know her name, to Mrs. Liz, to Mrs. Mikayla, to the Beautiful Owners of this place and family, to the volunteers that are apart of all the amazing events, like the Tri for Fun Triathlon, to all those who keep these amazing programs going strong year after year! You ALL have had an AMAZINGLY, IMPORTANT impact on the happiness, love, strength, and courage that has developed within both, my daughter, Mekala's and my life. Thank you for your services, they are amazing, keep up the great work and we hope everyone knows that no matter what skill level you are at or want to achieve, it can happenen with the help from our friends here at the Sports Center:) Much love and appreciation to all of you:);)!”

“Joined 3 months ago with my son. So glad we decided on this gym over the others available in Morehead. Staff is great and the facility is well kept with plenty of options for all workouts at all experience levels. Locker rooms with personal showers and sauna for post workout. And there’s free childcare room if you have young kids. I don’t and haven’t used but a nice added bonus I think.”
