Art of Balance | Tom Stephens

Tom Stephens is one of several professional artists whose work is featured throughout Balance.

If you’ve spent time at Balance, you’ve likely seen Tom’s work. Several of his large- and small-scale paintings are displayed throughout the gym, bringing color, movement, and energy to the space.

A Sarasota-based artist and Ringling College of Art and Design graduate, Tom has been painting since he was 12 years old. His work is inspired by Florida’s coastal landscapes and marine environment, ranging from vibrant coastal scenes to expressive abstract paintings.

What we appreciate most is the way his artwork influences the experience of being here. Tom’s paintings help create an environment that feels creative, welcoming, and engaging. They add personality to the space and contribute to the atmosphere our clients experience every day.

In addition to his work as an artist, Tom is also a licensed charter boat captain and custom fishing rod builder, bringing the same creativity and craftsmanship to everything he does.

We’re proud to feature Tom’s work at Balance and grateful for the role it plays in making our space feel unique!

Most people don’t train because they love exercising.

They train because they love what exercising allows them to do.

To travel.
To explore.
To play.
To stay active.
To keep saying yes to the people and experiences that matter most.

Strength isn’t the destination.

It’s what helps you keep moving toward the life you want to live.

Welcome to our Summer of Strength series.

Over the coming weeks, we’ll be highlighting some of the reasons our clients choose to invest in their health, movement, and longevity.

Because what you’re really training for is life.

Inside Balance is our ongoing series highlighting the people who shape the experience here every day. The coaches, therapists, and wellness professionals who bring knowledge, energy, and personality to the Balance community.

Meet Chad Myers!

Chad’s work extends far beyond the workout floor. As an Executive Coach, Personal Trainer, and Longevity Coach, he helps clients create meaningful change through a combination of fitness, mindset, behavioral change, and healthy lifestyle habits.

His clients range from professionals looking to perform at a higher level in business and life to adults focused on staying strong, active, and fully engaged as they age.

What makes Chad unique is his belief that lasting transformation happens when mind, body, and lifestyle work together. His coaching focuses not only on physical fitness, but also on the habits, mindset, and daily choices that support long-term health and performance.

As one client recently shared:

“Chad has become much more than a coach. He has become a mentor, trusted advisor, and friend.”

— David Jackson, Owner, Fleet Feet Sarasota

We’re proud to have Chad as part of the Balance community!

Meet Paolo Perez!

Paolo brings positivity, focus, and a strong coaching presence to the floor. His sessions combine strength training, HIIT, running, and mobility work with an approach that’s encouraging, approachable, and built around helping people feel more confident in their bodies.

With a background rooted in athletics and soccer, Paolo understands movement, discipline, and consistency. But more importantly, he understands people. His training style pushes clients while still making the process enjoyable and sustainable.

He’s also a big believer in the habits outside the gym:
quality sleep, recovery, stretching, nutrition, and learning to stay patient with yourself through the process.

“Be easy on yourself and keep trying. Results come after you build the habits, not before.”

Recovery supports the work you put in.

At Balance, recovery can look different for everyone. For some, it’s incorporating Active Isolated Stretching into a workout to improve mobility, release tension, and support better movement patterns. For others, it’s dedicated recovery work designed to help the body reset and restore.

We also offer Thai Massage with Colin Fairweather, combining assisted stretching and therapeutic bodywork to help improve flexibility, reduce tightness, and support long-term performance and recovery.

Because how you recover influences how you move, train, and feel every day.

To schedule your Thai Massage session, contact Colin at 941.400.6297.

Add recovery to your training and see and feel the difference!
