Martin is pretty much the only reason I had a membership at CAC. After I left Chicago, I wished and still wish I could find a class as good as his. I still haven't found it. MARTIN IS THE BEST!!!

Martin was the best instructor I had at LSAC! He is a huge asset to the CAC community.

The club is so fortunate to have the positive and Uber knowledgeable Martin. Please reinstate him as the club and all the people who participate in his classes will miss him greatly. We need Martin and CAC. The need to go together!

Though I only live in Chicago for part of the year, I make it a priority to attend a class with Martin whenever I am in town. He is a tremendous instructor and losing him would be an absolute shame. Bring back Martin!

Martin is the only reason I go to LSAC. I filter the class schedule by his name. A couple years ago, I realized how important he was to my mental health. I've been to classes with other instructors and nobody compares with him. I regularly hear people after class talking about how amazing he is. There is a noticeable difference in class attendance when he is not teaching. PLEASE bring him back. If he does not return, I will likely terminate my membership as others have already done.

Martin brings me to the gym on Mondays because he #cares. I can't imagine being able to wear a tank top again without his infectious enthusiasm and humor. I know my squats won't be as low without him telling me to pretend like it's Friday night and drop it like it's hot. Please don't let him go. He is a gem and brings so much heart and personality to the gym.

The best workout instructor and inspirational role model I have ever met. It is a sad lost for CAC because he will shine wherever he goes. He is an amazing human being. We all will miss him very much, he was part of the reason I kept my membership in your gym.

He is best instructor in all of the clubs. Please put aside all pettiness and think about the impact losing such a motivating instructor on the CAC members.

Martin is a vital part of the Chicago Athletic if Clubs. I started his bodypump classes in the spring of 2016 nearly thirty pounds heavier than today and very low self-esteem in myself as an athlete. Through his classes, Martin helped me realize fitness goals I previously thought unattainable, instilling a newfound confidence in the way I carried myself in various aspects of life.
I strongly encourage that the CAC reconsider this decision, and holistically take into consideration Martins expertise as a performing artist and fitness instructor, as well as the (literally) hundreds of lives Martin has touched during his tenure at the CAC.

Body Pump with Martin was the only thing that got me to the gym every Sunday morning for years. Although I've been away from LSAC for a while I always think about coming in for one of his classses. Very sad to see him go!
