ABOUT OUR JOURNEY

Our Mission

Our Journey was established in 2014 under the notion that people wanted to not only train their bodies, but also train their minds. As a growing wellness center, we sought to partner with local gyms but our mission was not welcomed with open arms.

Our Journey’s mission is to re-engineer our community back to good health physically, mentally, spiritually, and emotionally. We focus on the whole person, which is why our services include everything from personal training to sound healing.

When you're diligent with the pursuit of your goal, things will happen for you.

Justin Yarde, Co-Founder of Our Journey

Our History

Offering services in local gyms was just the beginning. We knew we needed to partner with other like-minded individuals in the community who shared our mission. We soon teamed up with fellow health conscious individual, Zephron Mongroo.

This partnership turned into something we never imagined, Springfield’s first vegan restaurant, Garden of Eat’n.

Garden of Eat’n was the first of its kind – a vegan restaurant with all organic, non-GMO ingredients. Through this partnership, Our Journey grew to be more than physical fitness training. We evolved into a true whole- body health and wellness center.
