I started my journey at Sheepdog right before making the decision to undergo gastric bypass & change my life. I knew Tonya from going to high school together & came in for a consult before surgery to see about personal training options once I was cleared for physical activity post op. As someone who was considered “morbidly obese” for most of my adult life & had never been physically active due to that, I spent an entire year training one on one with Tonya learning how to get range of motion & learning to navigate an entirely new world in my new body.
To say this changed my life would be a huge understatement. Tonya helped redefine my life, my attitude towards the gym/working out & helped me become the person I am today; Someone who is proud to come to the gym, someone who loves to move her body, someone who feels strong & excited to be living a completely different, happier and active life.. All the things I dreamed of for so long. I couldn’t have done this without Tonya by my side through it all.
After a year of personal training, I started hybrid training classes which opened me up to a community of people who have cheered me on, pushed me, supported me and truly inspired me to keep up with my lifestyle & goals. I cannot recommend Sheepdog enough- Tonya & Dan are top notch people who work hard to help you achieve your goals. Their dedication to their members & their gym goes above & beyond!!

Who knew that 6 months ago dropping a pair of cleats off to a friend’s daughter would get my butt and head back to where it needed to be! A strong support system is EVERYTHING when you have a goal in mind. @sheepdog.athletics coaches and members have created the most enjoyable environment for me AND MY FAMILY to find our love of fitness again 🙌🏼 Their entire gym & programming is designed to make you comfortable in every aspect. Health concerns? Need direction in your daily diet? Looking for competition? Need accountability? Personalized meal plans and workout programs? They got it and they get you the results you desire!
Can’t wait to see what another 6 months brings!! 💪🏼

I walked into Sheepdog just after the holidays with one goal in mind: tone up for my summer wedding.
I told Tonya I wasn’t so worried about my weight but more about looking and feeling confident in all of my wedding festivities, but mostly my wedding dress.
Then my bridal shower dress was too big. Then my wedding dress needed to be taken in. That’s when I saw results.
I thought Tonya would just tell me how to work out- but our training sessions went beyond that. She not only taught me the fundamentals about proper nutrition to fuel my weight lifting, but also gave me sample meals, recipes, and motivation to eat well. We got as specific on where to buy food, which protein was the cheapest at which grocery store, and what flavors we liked in certain meals. Her guidance completely changed how I look at and navigate food and eating. In my 20+ weeks of training, I learned how to properly fuel my body and saw the direct results Tonya said I would see when I abided by her code.
In the gym, I felt myself completely transform. Even when I didn’t workout with Tonya, I heard her in my head, either with the tailored videos she constantly sent me, or figuratively coaching me through sets as I imagined her in my head pushing me.
I constantly yearned to workout, and made myself workout even on the toughest days. I lifted hard and heavy, which was something I had never done before.
In terms of personalization in my personal training- I threw every possible obstacle at Tonya- multiple injuries, a bad reaction to antibiotics, and a total career change- all mid-season. Tonya met every challenge head-on WITH me, and catered my nutrition and workout plans and goals accordingly.
I made tons of mistakes- from completely skipping workouts to eating share size bags of skittles in one sitting, but Tonya never once judged me or shamed me. We pushed through these little fails together and continues to reach my goals.
I can not recommend the personal training program at Sheepdog athletics enough.

I could not be happier with my decision to join this gym! The atmosphere is welcoming and supportive, every class has people cheering each other on, and the coaches are great about answering questions about movements and giving tips on form. I am stronger now, both physically and mentally, than I have ever been. I highly recommend Sheepdog Athletics to anyone with any type of fitness goals!

Had to leave a review because we are moving and we wish we could take this gym with us. This place was so amazing, I’m planning to make the long drive every couple of weeks. In a few months I got a lot stronger but more importantly less hurt than I would at other gyms. They actually help you with your form and guide you through the workouts. We were worried when they brought in new coaches, but they are just as awesome. Make sure to visit coach Ryan in the 7 a.m. class, that’s the best group. If you want a great gym with a solid community that makes you feel good, go here! We are going to miss this place!

Sheepdog Athletics is more than just a gym. It’s a place to call home. No matter what your health and wellness goals are, no matter what levels of fitness experience you have, no matter your size, shape, age, injuries, Tonya and Dan will meet you where you are and inspire you to set and reach attainable goals. They are extremely knowledgeable, supportive and professional. Not only have I far exceeded my expectations physically over the past 2 years, but I’ve meet others people who are on their own wellness journey that I can now call best friends and family. Sheepdog is a hidden gem of downtown Taunton and if you are looking for a place to feel welcomed and instantly part of a community you’ll want to contact them right now.

Simple decision to make call or come in to make an appointment to meet with Dan or Tonya . I personally hesitated to do so and now think it’s funny because from the day I walked it it has been a truly great experience .. You are welcomed in and and coaches make sure to start you off slow so you can hit the ground running once your ready .. Learning the movements builds your confidence and that’s when you can change your life , body , mindset no matter what your goals are .. If your unsure or people telling CrossFit not the right move I challenge you come in give it a shot and see for yourself you’ll be truly amazed on results ..

Was very hesitant of trying cross fit at first because I thought I would get injured or lose muscle gained at the gym.. after being there for months I am amazed at the team atmosphere and the works outs as well as keeping what I had and adding to it. My stamina and endurance is up as well! Reccommended for sure!

I tried working out on my own, but I would talk myself out of it most days or when I did go, it wouldn't be my best effort. After hearing about the community that crossfit was i decided that was what i needed, so 5 months ago I joined Crossfit Sane. I was concerned that it would be too hard for me; however each activity is modified to meet my specific needs/abilities, which is great to know that I won't plateau as I improve. The coaches and patrons are outstanding, and have all helped me in my fitness journey.

The energy at the gym is amazing! Being new to Cross-fit I had concerns about getting injured, but the beginner 1on1 sessions have really helped to ease those concerns and the trainers are always looking out for you to make sure your form is on point. I highly recommend giving SANE a shot.

The best value for your dollar! The small class sizes are like having your own personal trainer at each session. Dan and Tonya are very knowledgeable and encouraging coaches no matter what fitness level you are at. Everyone cheers you on. Great welcoming atmosphere.

CrossFit Sane has truly changed my life! I *never* liked to exercise until I joined this gym. The workouts are always different so I don't get bored and the community of people there are amazing. The coaches are very thorough in how they explain the movements and everything is scalable-- you learn at your ability level and move up from there. If you've ever thought about trying CrossFit then this is the place for you!!

I am in awe of the community at crossfit sane. Last night I witnessed something amazing. One of our members that has struggled with starting her fitness journey was the star. She pushed herself out of her own comfort zone and performed her hardest to get that one more rep. All the while the rest of the gym cheered her on for being the hero. She triumphed over her individual weaknesses, and this is why she rocks.
This is what I love about our gym, the fact the members understand we are all at different points of physical fitness, but recognize when some one is trying their hardest at the work outs and praise that fact. Crossfit may have a bad rap, but the work outs are challenging to all levels and we all suffer but come together to cheer one another on.
