TOADAL
FITNESS HISTORY
Toadal
Fitness opened its door in March 1996 downtown Santa
Cruz. The name was chosen mostly because the owners are
French and it sounded good together. (The English use to
poke at the French and call them frogs during World War
II). Also it didn’t have serious connotations to the
name and we wanted to keep it light hearted.
So
Frog Fitness it WAS.
After
more than a year of operation, Frog Athletics Club
located in San Diego heard of us here in Santa Cruz.
They indicated that we were affecting their business (by
using their name) 500 miles away!! And we received legal
threats.
Therefore, we had to change our name but didn’t want
to lose the Frog. So we kept him as our mascot and logo
and one of our genius members came up with TOADAL
FITNESS. So far, so good.
We
still remain Toadal Fitness.
A
husband and wife team started Toadal Fitness. They are
still involved in the day-to-day operations and have
great enjoyment and fulfillment promoting and educating
folks to enrich the quality of their lives through
fitness. They often comment how blessed they are to
enjoy their “work” as it doesn’t seem like working
at all.
Our
goal is to help everyday people make a difference in
their life by becoming healthier. A little bit of
exercise (not too much) goes a long way. We feel the
only way for the average person to start exercising
regularly is to have access to a friendly and very
comfortable environment where the fear of being out of
place doesn’t exist. If you feel at ease when you come
to work out, you will come back for more.
In
February 1999, we opened our second location on the
Eastside of Santa Cruz, Live Oak. The facility is
slightly larger than the downtown location but the
quality care; friendliness and support to all of our
members remain. We are pleased to be able to serve both
the East and West side of Santa Cruz.
Service
with a smile all the way to your NEW YOU!! |
CABRILLO
FITNESS HISTORY
Cabrillo
Fitness was built in 1978 by a group of local
racquetball enthusiasts who had access to very few
racquetball courts in the Santa Cruz county area.
As the
years have passed by, and the trends in fitness and
exercise have evolved, so has Cabrillo Fitness
Club.
In order
to always meet the exercise needs of Santa Cruz county
residents we consistently add new equipment and
implement new programs. It has been, and always will be
our intention to provide a clean, relaxed and
comfortable atmosphere, which is ideal for adults off
all ages to identify, achieve and maintain their fitness
goals.
