Get Lively: Health & Fitness

About

Get Lively: Health & Fitness is a fitness business built on the idea that exercise should be fun, led by trainer and coach Jan. After almost 12 years in a Watertown studio, it closed its physical location at the end of 2025 and now directs clients to its virtual listings. It has offered small group classes, personal training, lifestyle and health coaching programs, and events, designed for people who do not think of themselves as gym people.

The program’s philosophy is that moving your body, showing yourself you can be consistent and finding a community to sweat with lead to a healthier, happier life. Workout classes are varied to keep participants interested and aim to combine fun, strength and community. Jan also hosts the Get Lively with Jan podcast, with more than 350 episodes on fitness, identity and everyday life, available on Spotify.
