“Lifting there has changed my life.” Ryan Weiss · Google review More member stories
You're not the problem
You've tried before. We know.
Maybe you've started and quit more times than you want to admit. Or you walk into a gym and feel lost, like everyone knows what they're doing except you. Underneath it, you're just tired in a way sleep doesn't fix, living in a body that stopped feeling like yours.
That's not you failing. Nobody ever gave you a reason that mattered, or showed you exactly what to do.
That's what we fix.
“Absolutely no one is judging or, frankly, paying attention to you or what you're wearing, and that is very freeing, especially if you are scared everyone here is buff and staring at you in your old sweats. People are very nice here.” Nancy · Member, Amery
“I want to be a strong, active mom, someone who can run with my kids, help them with their sports, and be proud of my fitness journey.”

Family owned since 2011
Meet Alissa and Sarah
We're not a big chain. We're a mom and daughter from Turtle Lake. We both went to school there, and we still live there today.
I opened Sunshine in 2011 as a single mom of three kids, because I wanted the people in our small towns to have a place close to home where they could get healthy. We started in Turtle Lake and grew from there, one town at a time, to nine gyms. In 2020 my daughter Sarah joined me, and today she runs all of our operations.
I believe that when one person gets healthy, it ripples out to everyone around them. Your kids feel it. Your partner feels it. Your community feels it. That's why Sunshine is more than four walls and some equipment, and why, when you join, you're part of our family.
Alissa, owner · Sarah, operations
I have been a part of Sunshine Fitness for many years. Great staff that are ready and willing to help and an owner who cares a lot about healthy living.

They walked in feeling exactly like you
Real members. Real towns.
“As a mother, my hope is to inspire my children to be active. My family truly inspires me to be the best version of myself.”
Determined to be a present dad for his kids, he took charge of his health journey and found Sunshine Fitness to continue getting healthy.
“In 2020 I got sick with Covid and almost passed away, because of how heavy I was and because I wasn't taking care of myself. Seeing my husband and children crying for me pushed me to try hard and lose weight. Nobody ever judges you there.”

Frequently asked questions
I've never really lifted. Will I know what to do?
Yes, and you won't have to figure it out alone. Every membership comes with:
- A full-body Strength Training Program. It tells you which machines to use at your gym and in what order, and it tracks your progress.
- A video for every machine. Our owner, Alissa, shows you how to set it up and use it, so you never have to guess.
- Rewired, Alissa's 12-lesson video course for anyone who has started and quit before: finding your real why, letting go of the shame that keeps you stuck, and real food made simple, so it sticks this time.
- Beginner classes in Clear Lake, Cumberland and Turtle Lake. No sign-up, just show up.
