  • Price increase notice

    Dear Valued Members, At Body By Desi, we are constantly striving to elevate your wellness experience and provide the best possible environment for you to reach your fitness goals. As you may be aware, the cost of goods and services has been steadily increasing across the board. To ensure we can continue to offer top-notch equipment, maintain our sparkling clean facilities, and varied class schedule, we will be implementing a modest price increase of five dollars to our membership rates per month, effective July 22, 2024. We understand that any price adjustment might raise questions, and we want to assure you that this decision was not taken lightly. We're incredibly grateful for your continued support, and this increase allows us to reinvest in the things that matter most to you. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to Brisol or Desi. We're always happy to chat! Thank you for being a part of our amazing community! With gratitude, BBD crew

    "I have been with Body By Desi/ Lift You Up since November of 2019.  I watched how my fitness journey took a turn since the moment I joined.  This all inclusive program not only guides to you to build a stronger body but creates an environment in which you feel accepted, encouraged, motivated and cheered on no matter where you are at in your fitness journey.  I am surprised at what I have been able to accomplished in this program from the amount of weight I am able to lift to the types of strength training techniques I never imagined I was able to do.  The trainers are a group of wonderful ladies each unique in their own ways and I enjoy working with each and everyone of them.  Desi is an incredible leader that if you follow her on social media is the most transparent individual I know, helping  women grow not only physically but mentally.  Thank you Body By Desi for helping me to love my body as it is and showing me that prioritizing my fitness is an important part of keeping a healthy body and mind." 

  • Maricela F. 2023

    My name is Maricela and I began my fitness journey a little over a year ago. In the past I've struggled with consistency and would eventually fall off the band wagon. I found myself bored and no structure with the programs that were provided to me in the past. At BBD every month we have new programs that have helped me along the way. My trainer keeps me accountable, and as a result I have become more aware/mindful of my decisions outside the gym. I've learned so much about myself and the infinite possibilities that strength training has taught me. It's not a routine for me as it was in the past, its now part of my lifestyle and keeps me balanced.In all fitness journeys the biggest challenge is finding a place that will allow you to grow at your own pace and continue to encourage everyone who joins. You will be guided and educated on programs that are tailored to meet everyone's needs. At Body by Desi and also known as Lyft You Up,  you will find motivational trainers and a great community. This all women's gym is a space created by women and for all women.

    I joined BBD in 2019 and right away I fell in love with the community.  I was welcomed and felt right at home. I had never strength trained before and was very insecure about it but Desi made my journey so easy. She was very patient and showed me step by step what needed to be done. I saw results and felt better than ever as I turned 40. I unfortunately stopped attending for about 2.5 years. This year I made a decision that I needed to get back on track. I felt horrible and was embarrassed to come back to BBD. I reached out to Desi and I felt like I had never stopped.  I joined the online community and love it.Brisoland Desi have been so helpful when it comes to any questions or doubts. Little by little I am seeing results again. I feel much more confident, stronger and don't have back and leg pain like I was having before I joined. I am now 43 and my body is changing and working out with BBD has helped me not only physically but mentally and emotionally.  The community is amazing and we are all there with one goal. To live a better and healthier life. I love them so much and I am so grateful to have been introduced to this group of amazing women. I highly recommend BBD community.

    What can I say about Body by Desi?
    That I love it! I have been using her program for over 3 years.
    Few things I love about it…
    I travel for a living and never have to miss out on a work out, the app has made it accessible to work out every where I go. Even though I live in another city I still feel the love from all the coaches.
    It’s a community of women that love to encourage each other and watch each other crush personal goals.
    I love they way I feel and lookThere really is no excuse not to work out!
    It’s all in your hands or cell phone….literally
