What I find about most places, especially when it comes to a wellness vacation is - it's the team that can make or break the experience. You can have a great location, lots of expensive equipment and the latest trendy classes, but it's the staff that makes the difference between m-e-h and AWESOME!
Damon Botsford, Hiking Manager, WellFit Malibu
What does wellness mean to you?
Simply... happiness!
What is your #1 favorite exercise or piece of equipment?
The elliptical. It's low impact, high calorie burning andmimics the motion of skiing, a sport I particularly enjoy.
What do you do to unwind and relax?
Yard work... seriously! Fresh air, alone in my thoughts and lost in zen-like relaxation! Lol
Your favorite indulgence?
Moose Tracks Ice Cream :)
Your favorite memory at Wellfit and why?
We were running out of time on a hike one day and instead of turning the guest around, I encouraged her to push on and complete a very challenging hike. It was incredibly inspiring. She later told me finishing that hike was the highlight of her stay and meant a lot to her. That memory means a lot to me too.

Your favorite memory at WellFit Malibu?
One of our previous guests came back after a year of continuing his journey on his own. He lost close to 200 pounds. He came back to surprise the staff. The thrilling part was getting to see what we were able to contribute to his life in a positive way. To celebrate his success with him. It was very meaningful that he said how much the nutritional advice meant to him. It makes what I do that much more worthwhile.
