We had the good fortune of connecting with Margherita Bell and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Margherita, career-wise, where do you want to be in the end?
My ultimate aspiration is to not only assist more clients but also empower other trainers to become the best they can be. I intend to share the wealth of knowledge I have collected and will continue to accumulate throughout my career. I believe that a coach is a light in the dark, that helps you see the path in front of you, and that’s what I want to be for as many people as possible.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
You know what truly makes Bell Fitness stand out? It’s the fact that we don’t just say we put our clients first, we live and breathe it. Here, you’re not just another face in the crowd – you’re part of our fitness family, and we’re all about making you feel that way.

Our workouts are something special. We’ve put a lot of thought into crafting them to be not just effective but also exciting. You won’t find repetition here; we’ve got 30-minute workouts that are very effective, fun and leave you truly energized. They’re dynamic, functional, and designed to get you real results.

Our focus are: Fitness, nutrition, and recovery. It’s a “wholestic” approach because we understand that true well-being goes beyond just the gym.

One thing I’m incredibly proud of is the community we’ve built. Nine years and counting, soon to hit the big one-oh! In the fitness world, that’s no small feat. It hasn’t been a cakewalk, though. We’ve had our share of challenges, especially with the curveball that COVID-19 threw at us. But guess what? We didn’t just survive; we thrived. Those challenges made us even stronger and brought us closer to our community and our members.

What I really want the world to know is that when you walk through our doors, you’re not just joining a gym. You’re becoming part of a forever family. We’re all about caring and showing love, and we can’t wait to welcome you into the Bell Fitness family.

So, there you have it – Bell Fitness in a nutshell, as passionate and real as it gets!

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
This is a great question. I will definitely take them hiking, I love the desert and the beautiful nature that surrounds us. I love the Verrado Stairs, Camelback Mountain, Pinnacle Peaks, and many more hikes in the Phoenix area. Sedona is also a must-see place, as you truly feel the magical energy in there and you feel very connected with nature.
As far as restaurants, I love downtown Phoenix, there are so many cool spots to eat and have a drink. I love Wren & Wolf, Pigtails, Cibo, Rosso, and many more. I will also take them to the Phoenix Art Museum and then shop in all the thrift stores in Melrose. The Botanical garden would definitely be on the list too. Phoenix is such a beautiful, growing town.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I have many people that I would like to give a shout-out to, as I believe that the success of Bell Fitness is definitely in a big part due to our involvement in our community. Our members for their support through the years, our coaches for believing in me, and my family for the support, and for dealing with my ups and downs as a business owner. There are also many books and friends that helped along the way. Too many to mention. I feel very blessed to have so many wonderful people in my life.
