Where YOU Define YOUR Strong

Thousands of Lives: Changed

 
 

Uncountable stories of strength. Uncountable lives changed. That’s what decades of diverse, collective experience from Bodies by Burgoon trainers will get you. They guide. They coach. They laugh. They cry. They cheer. And they believe in every single person making personal commitments to health.

There is no one-size-fits-all in fitness. ...and making an experience one that individually motivates you to achieve whatever it is you want to achieve is most important. 

For the trainers, it’s about what’s right for each of their unique clients: it might be getting stronger, getting faster, gaining weight, losing weight, rehabbing injuries, or learning to walk. There’s no magic…only hard work…for all levels of fitness. And they know how to make the hard work fun and rewarding with total body workouts that leave your body and your mind recharged.

Everyone is welcome — all shapes, all sizes, all colors, all fitness levels, all lifestyles. Sweat and hard work are our common ground.

 

Our Team

Jason Burgoon:
Owner/Lead Trainer

My best friend was a proud sheetrock taper, the man I lifted weights with, the man who taught me kickboxing, and a happy parent. He was my dad. And, all I ever wanted to do was make him proud. My earliest memories are working with him on Saturday mornings. And at each job we worked together, he’d say to everyone about me, “Watch how high he can kick!” He taught me to work hard, work honestly, treat people with respect, and to always stick up for people smaller or weaker than me, if they needed it. What he taught me has guided my life.

Aldon Tibbs:
Senior Trainer

When I was 21 I was playing in a band called Clair de Lune. At that time, I could only imagine becoming a rock star. But then, I became a dad. My son Landon was born on December 24th, 2002, and he changed everything. After Landon was born, I really began to get into fitness. I started running and lifting weights. I had to get active because I had an active son.

Strong: Paying It Forward

Bodies by Burgoon is a community of people uncovering strength who want to bring that same strength — of heart, of mind, of body — outside of the gym walls and into the community. 

We partner with diverse, non-profits with big hearts. While we love supporting the missions and causes that our clients and staff are passionate about, we also have a soft spot for helping kids start off their lives strong, healthy, with confidence, and with compassion. 

Fundraising: We host training and/or cycling events in our studios where 100 percent of the proceeds directly benefit featured non-profits. 

Sponsorships and Donations: When goals align around strength, we want to be a part of it. We happily give in-kind services to organizations aligned with our mission, or those close to the hearts of our clients. We also serve as a collection point for donated items, when it makes sense.

Causes: We honor those working on behalf of strong communities -- you'll see events honoring teachers, nurses, and first responders. 

Over the years, Bodies by Burgoon donated more than $100,000 in financial and in-kind gifts to area non-profit organizations, some of which include: Animal Humane Society, Ann Bancroft Foundation, Avenues for Homeless Youth, Hope Chest, MADD, Minneapolis Public Schools, Walk to End Hunger, Minnesota Coalition for Battered Women, and Still Kickin.
