Petaluma Adventure Fitness Boot Camp

Created by fitness pioneer John Spencer Ellis, the Adventure Boot Camp method combines the physical boon of varied exercise with the invigorating effects of teamwork set in the great outdoors. The program incorporates strength-training and cardio drills into constantly changing classes, which are paired with expert nutritional guidance to streamline physiques. Pre- and postcamp evaluations summarize the progress of each participant and highlight evolutionary changes such as sprouting a third arm to pump more iron.

In Petaluma, campers heed the daily directives of certified personal trainer Jayme Larson, whose drive to enhance the health of others stems from an impressive fitness history. His competitive experience in karate, football, and wrestling augments his boot-camp routines with martial-arts and sports-conditioning moves, and his Level 1 kettlebell-instructor certification has led him to replace his hands with the bulky weights. Jayme specializes in guiding clients of all ages and abilities, welcoming inexperienced campers as well as accomplished athletes to his classes.
