Vagabond of the Month for May: Rachel Rod

Best things about Vagabond: 

A few years ago when I was looking for a new gym to try I came across the name Vagabond.  I’ve always had a love-hate relationship with going to the gym…  I have been sort of a vagabond with my fitness journey- where, what and when I get into it and actually enjoy it.  The philosophy of focusing on overall health and wellness and having different paths to choose from just works for me.  I love coming into the gym and seeing everyone doing their own thing and finding their own way.  It makes me feel like I belong even though I’m not doing the same thing or moving in the same way as everyone else. It inspires me to keep coming back and trying new things.  The coaches really take their time to get to know you individually and I feel like I can ask them anything and they will point me in the right direction. I admire everyone here and look forward to continuing the journey!
