I originally came to Mike Stauber, founder of Culture Fitness to make sure that I was working with weights appropriately as I didn’t want to hurt myself. I had planned to work with him for a just a few weeks to learn the basics to allow me to work out safely on my own. My motivation was to gain strength and confidence. Well, two years later I continue to work weekly with Mike and have found our sessions to be extremely rewarding. He is extremely patient and manages to strike a balance between pushing me while respecting my limitations. I have known Mike since he was a teenager and I am so impressed by his growth into a business owner. He is a true professional who is committed to his career, his family and his friends. I strongly recommend that individuals of all ages and fitness levels reach out to Culture Fitness and share their personal fitness goals with Mike. I am confident that he can develop a personal fitness plan to meet the goals of his clients. Less

I’ve been working with Mike for years (since before Covid!) He is a great trainer and really caters to my specific goals. Working with Mike I saw results much quicker visibly in my body and in my strength vs. trying to do it on my own in a gym. My energy levels went up and I just feel better overall mentally and physically. Knowing that he knows what he’s doing and how my form should look, it really helped me lean into trying new exercises and lifting heavier than I would on my own. Highly recommended and worth every penny! Less

Mike has been a great trainer for me. Keeps me on task, varies the workouts so I don’t get bored and has helped gain strength back. His TPI credentials have helped with my swing and overall golf fitness. I’m back to walking instead of riding a cart. Less

Mike has guided my fitness journey for more than 8 years. His knowledge is incredible and he custom tailors the exercise to match my needs. I am excited to see him growing and opening his new gym. Less

We have been working with Mike for a few years. Mike works with my husband (65+) and me (55+) on our good days and bad days. We’ve been through back surgery, vertigo, and all of the miscellaneous injuries of our age. Mike meets us where we are at on any given day, no stress, and finds safe ways to keep us strong. We credit Mike with our ability to keep up with our 5 kids, 5 kids-in-law, and 11 grandchildren! Less

I have been working with Mike for years now. A friend invited me to return to soccer and it wasn't until working with Mike that I gained a strength and confidence I didn't know I could have as a Mom of 4! Mike has helped me get and stay in soccer shape now at 45! Mike has a great positive, encouraging attitude and wealth of knowledge in his field he shares in a supportive way. Mike has created a community in Culture Fitness that truly feels like a family away from home. I also greatly appreciate how Mike is invested in his community at large in trainings and support for several youth sports and other local events to encourage all of Sonoma County to thrive. Less

I’ve been working with the founder of Culture Fitness, Michael Stauber, for the last ten years. Mike convalesced me through a major arm break that doctors told me would take years to recover. He subsequently coached me through 26 Spartan competitions where I performed in the top 10% of my age class. Mike has the unique ability to assess the needs of his clients and deliver top quality results. He gets my highest recommendation as does Culture Fitness. Less

I am not much of a go to the gym type of person. Having Mike as a trainer has made my experience good, with his classes and encouragement! I appreciate working out with the group as it makes working out a positive experience! Less

From day one, Mike made me feel not only welcome but also supported in a way that was both professional and motivating.

With Mike’s knowledge, encouragement, and support I set four state powerlifting records! If you’re looking for a trainer who is knowledgeable, supportive, and truly invested in helping you succeed, I can’t recommend Mike enough. Less

I have been training with Mike of Culture Fitness for the past nine years. I originally started training with Mike when I was trying to find myself again while going through a divorce, and since that first one on one session I have never looked elsewhere. I know that I would never have achieved the level of fitness and wellness I have if it wasn’t for the personal attention given in my training sessions. Mike is always very encouraging and has a vast knowledge of his profession, whether it is about working out, recovery, or nutrition. I would recommend Culture Fitness in a heartbeat. It is not just about the training sessions themselves but the community and friends I have made within this atmosphere. I aim to continue to train and maintain a good level of fitness with the help and guidance of this fitness community for a long time to come. Less
