Reviews of Asheville Fit Tribe
Justin Lee
What can I say? Preston makes working out fun, challenging, and social. Everyday is different- you'll never be bored at a workout with Preston. No egos here. EVERYONE is welcome and EVERYONE in the Tribe is welcoming and encouraging. I've never been one to last long with workout routines, but here I am very consistent (I found the joy in 7am workouts!) - loving the workouts and how I feel and look. Preston is amazingly kind, helpful, and passionate about his Fit Tribe and his Warriors. Come join us!

Asheville Fit Tribe is a fun, motivating community of diverse athletes who come together to make themselves better every day! You won’t regret joining. Preston is knowledgeable about form and truly cares about every one of his workouts and athletes. Every workout is scalable up and down- everyday is new and truly fun! Working out outside is GREAT… you may think there is bad weather, but once you start you realize it’s not that cold or wet.. it’s really just fun!

I have been active all my life and a runner since 2011, but only in the past several months with Asheville Fit Tribe and trainer/coach Preston have I seen actual results from a fitness routine!
I am stronger, more agile, and have greater endurance!
Outdoor workouts with supportive, motivating, friendly, like-minded people are the best!
Preston pushes your limits and makes every single workout fun and engaging!
It doesn’t matter what your fitness level is right now-just show up-Preston and the Tribe WILL help you achieve your fitness goal!

I have been with the Fit Tribe family since July 2020…hands down the BEST decision of my life in taking control of my health! Workouts are always fun and unique! Trainer Preston is very motivating to help you be successful at your level of fitness. Everyone there is encouraging and we have a common purpose to better ourselves! Going ‘All in’ with Asheville Fit Tribe is well worth it!
Laura Torres
I can't say enough good things about Asheville Fit Tribe!! I've been a part of lots of gyms and different workout groups and this is truly unique. It can be intimidating to go to a new workout class and the community Preston has created is so welcoming and encouraging--I immediately felt a sense of belonging and connection. Preston makes every workout so fun, engaging, and different that you never get bored. He challenges you to push yourself AND also listen to your body and makes workouts accessible to any skill or athletic level. He's paying attention and watching your form so you don't get hurt. He also sends inspiring texts and adds in different challenges to help with accountability and motivate you to keep showing up (even in the cold!). Highly, highly recommend!!

I am so grateful to be a part of the fit fam with Preston! The work outs are always so fun and perfectly challenging. I’m proud of the progress I make every week, and Preston has really helped me stay motivated without even a single ounce of shame. He is all about positive support and true fitness. It’s clear he has invested in deep education in what he coaches and that he cares a lot about what he does. The music is always great and the classes are always filled with a lot of laughter. Highly recommend to anyone in the area!!!

I joined Asheville Fit Tribe in March of this year. I was drawn to outdoor training because after two years of the pandemic I was finding it difficult to maintain a regimen at an indoor facility. However, I plan to stay with AFT for so many other reasons! Preston does an amazing job of keeping the workouts fresh and challenging yet achievable for all. He also works hard to ensure you are using the correct body mechanics so as to prevent unnecessary injuries. Finally, it’s a warm and welcoming community were all fitness levels are welcome. Give it a try, you won’t regret it!

I’ve been going to fit tribe since February of 2022 and I’ve never felt better about my health. Preston challenges you during your workout in every way. He creates class to incorporate cognitive and critical thinking, challenging your memory skills, and sequentially builds on integrated movement. Asheville Fit Tribe connects you with nature for being outdoors which we all need more of and builds your community with meet and greets during warm ups and group activities. After I attended my first class I was hooked. I always feel my best after a workout.
Jessica Barlow
Asheville Fit Tribe is a super positive and supportive community! Being part of the FitTribe family has kept me accountable and actually made me excited to work on my fitness. Preston pays attention to form and gives success options which makes it accessible to all levels of fitness. I always leave class with a smile on my face, because we did it together! I would encourage anyone to join, you won’t regret it!
Emily Gilles
Preston at Asheville Fit Tribe has made it easy and fun to get up early and workout at the park - even in the cold and rain! The classes are both challenging and accessible. And the folks who attend are super friendly. Highly recommend!
Kayla Sessoms
Asheville Fit Tribe is just what I needed for a workout - Preston makes sure that you build on everything: strength, agility, cardio, balance, and more. I’ve been going since November of ‘22 and we haven’t had the same workout yet - always something new and always something fun. There’s also community events to help you discover Asheville and get to know your Fit Tribe family!
Justin Arnall
You will not find a more knowledgeable, energetic, generous, friendly and encouraging trainer than Preston.
Preston puts together smart, challenging workouts for people at all levels of fitness. When he presents a movement to the group he always includes at least 2-alternative movements as success options. Preston creates space for each individual to conquer their own fitness goals. No matter your current level of fitness, Fit Tribe will help you achieve your goals.
Preston’s knowledge of kinesiology is vast and he shares his knowledge in in every class. I have learned more about heathy fitness from Preston than any other trainer in the past.
Each day of the week has a different focus, from cardio and endurance to functional agility to high intensity interval training to strength training to mobility. This allows me to fine tune my fitness goals from week to week.
There are multiple classes each day which make is easy for me to find classes that fit my ever-changing schedule.
Having classes outdoors and utilizing multiple areas around Carrier park keeps the classes fresh and energy high.
Fit Tribe is home to the friendliest, most encouraging fitness community I have been a part of in Asheville.
Elizabeth Bunner
I started working out with this community in November, 2022 and am hooked! Preston has an amazing program that is accessible to all. He meets you where you are in your fitness journey (or just getting started), kindly encourages you to challenge yourself and makes every workout engaging and fun. Its a wonderful group of supportive folks. No shaming and always encouraging!
Stephanie Metzger
I love Asheville Fit Tribe. I am not consistent with many things, but Preston's presence and knowledge has motivated me to work out more consistently than I ever have. He is great at giving modifications and watching your form. I come for the workout and stay for the community.
Jaime Lance
This is so much more than an exercise group. This is a community of people who support and encourage each other. The workouts are amazing too! Every one is different, so your muscles are always guessing and getting stronger. Getting outside in ALL types of weather is also a part of the fun! I was worried about the cold weather, but it’s quickly become my favorite. At a time in my life where things are very hard, Fit Tribe has given me a place to feel strong, successful, supported, and connected.
Lindsay Brisson
UPDATE:
Preston has seriously built the most amazing community with Fit Tribe. I wasn't able to go for about 5 months but these people checked in on me regularly to make sure I was good and if I needed anything. Like how awesome is that?!
Finding Fit Tribe has been one of the best things that's happened since moving to Asheville! Preston is extremely creative with the workouts, always motivating, and celebrates your successes like they're his own no matter how small! The Tribe feels like family after your first class and was THE most welcoming fitness class I've ever gone to!
Lisa Saladin
Preston is an amazing trainer and person! He leads Asheville Fit Tribe with passion, dedication, and unending positivity. I have never loved a workout group more than AFT!
Carol Spagnuola
This workout is so much fun! Seriously, I didn’t think I could love working out this much. Preston does such a great job keeping it fresh, the tunes are great, and working out outside feels great. I highly recommend giving this a try!
New Feedback a year later! I am still a Triber, I am stronger than I have ever felt, and it is now apart of my daily routine. Preston has built belief in me that I never knew I had in my fitness journey. The workouts are challenging yet so much fun. I can’t say enough great things about joining Asheville Fit Tribe and what joining has done for my life. Yes, I’m your forty’s it is possible to get to your best self and joining the tribe is a great way to get there!

Still rocking the Asheville Fit Tribe two years in! Still absolutely in love with the workouts and I feel stronger even on the days I don’t. Preston continues to make every workout fresh exciting fun and challenging. Love the people in the tribe just as much as the workouts!

“Exercise might be the most potent ‘drug’ we have for extending the quality & perhaps the quantity of our years of life” Peter Attia MD -this is a powerful quote!
He goes on to say, “a framework for exercise is built upon…stability, strength, aerobic & anaerobic training”
The framework described is what I experience each week in my daily workouts with Asheville Fit Tribe and coach Preston Jefferson.
I believe we increase the potency of this exercise “drug” by training outdoors-in all weather conditions!
Asheville Fit Tribe has had a huge impact on my life.
I see and feel the power of commitment and consistency in my dedication to exercise.
In the beginning showing up to workout soon became a habit. Now, at almost 400 check ins these workouts have become a permanent lifestyle change!
BUT, there is more!— the people. This tribe, this community are some of the most motivating, inspiring, good & kind humans I’ve ever known.
I always look forward to seeing ALL of them! ❤️💪💪🏾💪🏼🔥💪🏼💪🏽💪❤️

I recently moved from Miami to Asheville and I was looking for a fitness program. I spotted the Asheville Fit Tribe banner at Carrier Park and it looked like a fun, energetic class! The first week is free and I was immediately hooked! Preston is highly motivated and keeps the class varied, meeting the needs of all fitness levels! I am deeply committed to this workout as evidenced by working out with frost on the ground! Check it out!
Kipp McDermott
Oh, Fit Tribe how I LOVE you!! Preston makes working out so fun! It’s such a encouraging, energetic, safe environment with amazing people and the best trainer!!! Check. It. Out.❤️Kipp
As a young athlete is really important to me to have a trainer that teaches you good form. The workouts are so fun and Preston is AWESOME!!!

I am ecstatic to have discovered the Tribe! Coach Preston is always 100% on... he is fully prepared with fun and challenging workouts; he motivates and encourages each of us with his amazing good energy; and he sticks with us until we get our form or a particular move just right. I enjoy the earnest support of the group and leave each workout invigorated and looking forward to the next one!
Lisa Varno
My experience with Asheville Fit Tribe has been incredibly motivating, fun, and uplifting. Preston offers multiple layers of challenge which allows you to choose your own adventure, while feeling supported by the rest of the group. This has pulled me out of the winter blues and my gym rut, and I'm pushing my fitness to the next level!
Beth Metz Lemmel
This is not your typical community. Asheville Fit Tribe will meet you exactly where you're at in your fitness journey, and move you forward to meet your goals. Preston is amazing!
Tyler Davis, Your Asheville Broker
Been training with Fit Tribe for over 2 years now. Preston is knowledgable, engaging, supporting, funny, responsible- all the things you could ask for in a trainer. The program is varied, unique, and always leaves you with those amazing post workout endorphins. You can push yourself or take it easy. As Preston says, "This is your workout to conquer, at YOUR pace"
Amanda Jones
Five stars doesn't do Preston and his Asheville Fit Tribe vision justice. I truly believe Preston has found the magic formula for how to exercise effectively while having fun no matter your body type, fitness level, or personal goals. Beyond supportive and creates a great atmosphere rain or shine to go out and get it done. Don't wait any longer, check it out.
Cassidy Walpole
I really can't say enough about how I love my workouts with Asheville Fit Tribe! When I started a year ago I had wrist pain, hated running, and had no idea how to do a deadlift. Since then my pain has resolved, I feel more balanced and fit, my cardio has increased significantly, and I am lifting weights safely and with good form.
Every workout is different which keeps me engaged and motivated. I have fun and meet great people, and I absolutely love the outside meetups! Preston really excels at what he does and his deep passion and care for other people is abundant.
I consistently recommend the fit tribe to my clients, coworkers, and pretty much anyone who asks me how I stay so fit!!
Sammy Self
Preston has created a very special environment for people looking to get fit and be with the community. He takes the stress out of working out by creating unique workouts everyday, he shows you the right form for everything, he motivates you, and makes it all so much fun! There are tons of events for working out/dancing/running and then hanging out and having fun with other fit tribe members. I am so thankful to have found this community!
kristin trummer
This is the most inviting, challenging & FUN group athletic activity I've ever tried. Preston is so knowledgable — ZERO ego — just 100% out to have you living your healthiest, best, and more purposeful life. The Fit Tribe community events are fun & create a more tight knit atmosphere than a gym would. I love how everybody and every BODY is welcome. I've seen a lot of progress in my stamina and fitness levels since joining. I go 5x/week —best way to start every morning!
Jessica Pior
Fit Tribe has been the most fun and supportive group to help me reach my fitness goals. Trainer Preston is a phenomenal motivator and creates some really fun and challenging workouts. You never know what you're going to get but you know it will help you get stronger and faster. The other athletes are also great inspirations and I am so happy to have found this incredible group. Come give it a try!
Hannah Roy
I joined Asheville Fit Tribe after about 2 years of not working out consistently. I immediately felt welcomed by Preston and by everyone that was coming to the classes. I have been attending regularly 2-3 times per week and I love the workouts. Each day being focused on a different fitness aspect (endurance, agility, strength, and HIIT) has allowed me to see progress in so many areas that I have not from doing other classes or self guided workouts. Classes are challenging and can be tailored to your needs (or in my case...knees). Preston makes sure that we are all using good form, pushing ourselves to our best, and having fun all at the same time. It is amazing to find a workout and a group that keeps me motivated to come back week after week!

I can’t say enough about the Tribe, Preston is an amazing trainer who makes every workout unique and engaging. He always gives success options and is a fountain of positive energy! I am new to Asheville and the social events are a great way to meet new people! If your looking for a great workout and a way to make new friends, check out Fit Tribe! The only thing you have to lose is calories 😉
Jessica Guidas
Shortly after moving to Asheville I discovered Asheville Fit Tribe. I typically dislike working out in group settings because I feel uncomfortable working out in front of other people, but Preston really makes you feel comfortable. The workouts are so fun and effective! I highly recommend Asheville Fit Tribe if you're looking for an alternative to the gym like I was. Great workouts and a fun environment!

I have never liked exercise. I enjoyed being active through games like tennis and basketball, but never could get into exercising consistently, even as I got older and knew I needed it.
I originally joined Fit Tribe just for a reason to get out of the house during COVID, but my experience has been so much more than I anticipated. Preston really knows his stuff, and creates a balanced workout schedule so that you're improving at so many things--cardio, agility, strength, flexibility.
Preston keeps it fun--everything from creating games to incorporate into the exercises, to something completely goofy like a random British accent. I appreciate his willingness to do whatever he can think of to encourage folks like me who aren't naturally workout warriors.
Two other things I especially admire about Preston:
1. He is somehow always everywhere, checking out everyone's form on the exercises, offering feedback and encouragement. As a trainer in a completely different field, I know one of the most important things any trainer can do is figure out how to give everyone the attention they need. Before I even knew what the heck I was doing as far as the exercises, I knew this guy had that aspect of training down pat. He's a natural at knowing where to be, who to check in with, what feedback to give.
2. It does not matter if there are 15 people at a session, or 1--Preston always gives it everything he has. If only one person shows up, he will work out with that person to help them get through the session. The guy's commitment and work ethic are simply off the charts.
I've been doing Fit Tribe for a few months, typically 2-3 times a week. I have my wind back; I'm stronger than I have been in a very long time; my flexibility and agility are so much better than when I started.
Compared to getting a personal trainer, or joining a gym where I would have no clue what I should do, the value of this group is absurd. It's easily worth more than the cost.
Cornerstone Physical Therapy
Preston does absolutely everything he can to help his patients! He has gone above and beyond to work with us so that he better knows how to help his athletes prevent injury and stay feeling great! He's the real deal and truly wants the best for everyone that crosses his path.
Benjamin Odom
I’ve been going to the gym for six months and didn’t see much results, Preston keeps things interesting fun and personal! He looks out for the people in his tribe both while working out and in life it feels like a family! Best exercise experience I’ve ever had, so glad to be a part of this wonderful experience. 12/10
Sara Sabol
My husband and I joined the Asheville Fit Tribe on my 40th birthday and it was such a perfect time to start this fitness journey! We get so much more out of working out with a trainer in a group setting. It's not intimidating (if you are worried about that like I was). There are all different ages and abilities in every class. Highly recommended!
Jean Theeuwes
I have a Tribe member for over a year. I enjoy going to class ‘cause you never know what we will be doing that day. Preston is always watching to make sure I am doing the activities correctly. I have cheerleaders that push me harder when I need it.
Cynthia Penovi
This is not only a great alternative for those who are not ready to go back to an indoor gym with the pandemic, but it also provides you with a wide range of options to keep fit and active. Preston is very knowledgeable, warm and attentive, and he helps create a strong sense of community. I really recommend it!
Annice Brown
Absolutely love the Tribe. I go to the 7:00 a.m class and Preston motivates the team which motivates me. It's a big part of my life. I encourage anyone who is thinking about working out to consider this. Always working at my own pace.
m Knep
I love that it’s efficient, you can tell immediately that it works, and it only takes a very small % of your day. I LOVE the fact that Preston tells you everything to do vs going to a gym and trying to figure out how to get the most out of a workout. Plus, at the end of the day, it’s fun, it’s outside, the people are great, and you do everything at your own workout level with no judgement.
Megan Lee
This is a GREAT fitness group that keeps me motivated to exercise regularly, adopt healthy habits, and have fun with community too. I LOVE IT!!! *356 workouts & counting: ALL WORTH IT! 🥰 …
Lisa Rogala
I look forward to getting out there every day for a new and different work out. Great way to make new friends!
Heather Crewell
So much fun. Different workout every class. Preston is the best and the class is always supportive. Any fitness level welcome. I love that its outside!
