About
Tribe Wellness LLC offers group exercise programs steeped in evidence-based exercise interventions from the best leading research in physical therapy and exercise science. While our programs are not to be confused with individualized physical therapy services, we use ideas from the best available research to create a community experience.
Our "Tribes" are communities of learners who lend a helping hand to each other for motivation, emotional support, and fellowship. Together we push each other to new heights, living our motto, "STRENGTH in Numbers!"
