If you like to get outside or just want a change of pace from indoor or home gyms, ELMNTL Fitness is the place to go. The workouts are total body and always different. And the people are super welcoming, too!

Most Favorite: Amazing, challenging + full body workouts!! Outdoor park environment is beautiful,…read moreinstructor is friendly + helpful, workouts are continuously changed for variety + challenge, instructor tailors workouts to each person. Price is reasonable + given the great workouts + instruction, totally worth every penny. Least Favorite: Inclement weather can be tougher to work out in. Bonus Mention: It's dog friendly! :) Adorable pups are allowed to join in. If you're looking for a seriously challenging workout and would love to get fit while surrounded by trees, grass, fresh air and the gorgeous outdoors (sometimes a river view!), you've found it! Not only do you get a great workout, you get to meet a group of welcoming, encouraging folks and get personal one-on-one help from an experienced, knowledgeable instructor. Prior to ELMNTL Fitness, I was someone who kept to herself as far as workouts. At the gym, I kept to myself and usually only hit up treadmill machines. I'd go for solo runs or home workouts. I didn't know much about how different workouts affected and helped different muscle groups. I avoided people and didn't challenge myself to try new moves. Since ELMNTL Fitness, I've discovered so much - about outdoor workouts, about different workouts and how they affect my body, about how a friendly, welcoming group of folks can add to my workout experience, my body and my strengths + weaknesses. My husband convinced me to go to an ELMNTL session in winter of 2012. How he got me to get up for a 5:30 a.m. session in the cold I don't know, but I attended the first workout and was nervous as could be. I knew I was in a group of people who attended regularly and was incredibly self-conscious - of my body, my fitness level, and being judged for all of the above. Kevin, the instructor, welcomed me (as did his adorable dog Mason) and was very friendly! I attended my first session and was floored about how kind everyone was - even though many of them are in peak physical condition, they all cheered me on even though I know they could do far better than me. No judgement, no criticism - just acceptance and encouragement. I have to admit - first workout was brutal, but it was an all-over body pain that, while uncomfortable, made me feel great in what I'd done and that my entire body was getting worked out! My usual go-to was running, and you don't feel the great full body exhaustion you get after an ELMNTL workout. I've been attending fairly regularly since then, and while there is usually a mix of regular attendees and new folks, everyone is so welcoming and supportive! We all encourage each other no matter where we're at physically. The workouts themselves are always changing, which I love. I'm easily bored with workouts and usually once boredom sets in, I quit. I need variety as it keeps my interest and Kevin is always changing it up! Sometimes the workouts are cardio-intensive, sometimes a mix of cardio + strength, and one thing I love about ELMNTL is that Kevin will literally demo + explain each move to let us know what we're working out and how to correctly work out. He also keeps an eye out for bad form - while he's not over my shoulder the entire workout, he is definitely looking out for each person and helps correct my form to prevent injury. I'm very thankful for that as correct form has always been a struggle for me (especially when I worked out by myself at home). The workouts are fantastic and change to accommodate each season. They're challenging and Kevin works to tailor each session with custom workouts to challenge each person and the group. I've noticed serious improvement in my body and also in my physical capabilities since attending - definitely built some muscle and can do many more pushups and walking planks than when I first started! And for a dog owner like me, it's great to have an opportunity to bring my pup out with me! He loves it just as much and gets a chance to run around with me. Thanks to Kevin for being so dog-friendly! Besides the great improvement in my health, body and fitness level, I've also had such an increase in my confidence level. I never believed I could do what I've found I can with ELMNTL workouts - from monkey bar swings to rope climbs to hill sprints, I have such a feeling of accomplishment after every workout, even if I'm not the best at them. I have a newfound confidence and appreciation for myself for both my physical strength and capability as well as my mental attitude - I find I'm more excited and ready for challenges and feel a belief and faith in myself I did not have before.

I have been an SOSer for 5 years now. Which makes it shocking that I'm just now getting around to…read morewriting review, especially since I'm such a mega-fan! I first heard about SOS from a few folks when I worked at L Brands. They had a few loyal customers with whom I worked. To be honest, I was a little intimidated when I'd see these folks post about their workouts on social media. I had thought about trying it circa 2017, but was too intimidated (my loss!). But in 2019, I ended up with a stress fracture while marathon training. I was able to barely finish my training for the NYC Marathon, which I did successfully complete in November 2019. But at that point, it was evident that I couldn't just keep running marathons without incorporating strength training into my routine. So in Christmas Week 2019, I started with the 7 class starter pack just to try it out. I even joined Team Tread (their half & full marathon training program)in their Columbus location in January to start training for the Nashville Half in April 2020. Unfortunately for me, my SOS morning routines were abruptly halted in March 2020. But luckily, my team tread registration got me into the "digital studio" which I had no idea what it was at the time. I very quickly uncovered that it's all the same studio instructors and they have recorded classes with new uploads almost daily as well as a huge library of online classes (which as you can imagine has only grown in the past 5 years). I did what everyone else was doing and immediately ordered as many dumbbells, resistance bands, and other equipment to build up a "home SOS studio" and my equipment has been growing ever since. I moved to Arizona in summer 2021, and have continued to be a dedicated Digital Studio user and advocate. Whenever I come home to Ohio (whether Cbus or Cincy), I get giddy at the thought of going to classes in person and it's a treat to choose which classes I'll take and with which instructors. I can honestly say SOS Digital Studio has helped me get in the best shape of my life. I feel like I personally know all of the trainers (I don't have social media anymore, but when I did, I followed all of them, so again, felt like I kew them personally). When I was in Hawaii for my wedding, SO many people were asking me about my arms and complimenting me. I kept trying to tell them about the DS and how special SOS is. I will always be a dedicated and loyal fan. It's become such a part of my routine that I'm on Christmas Break now with my husband in Kansas (where he's from) and I've brought my ankle weights, light weights and loop bands just so I can get some classes in. Thank you, Gretchen and team for helping me be the best version of myself every day! Can't imagine what I'd do without the DS and my SOS training crew! (Only word of advice to newbies- the System DOES work! Don't skip out on any classes. As you can imagine, being a marathon runner, I favored all of the cardio classes. But it wasn't until I really started incorporating High & Tight as I prepared for my wedding that I noticed the chiseled arms that I'd always wanted. It's a well-rounded program that works wonders as long as you incorporate ALL of the classes). Particularly about the Cincy location, I love the rooms they have (1 dedicated to The Course, 1 for Ebb and High & Tight and another for In The Mix and Control). You can tell it was built after the Columbus locations! I also have only been here about 7 times total (since I'm more from the Columbus area). But both instructors Tyler and Emma have remembered me. Emma is for sure my favorite instructor. I was super spoiled this past Thanksgiving and had her for three straight days of classes! Oh how I wished I lived closer!

The girls had lots of fun on all of the activities! For our group size it was $10 a kid for 2 hours. The kids definitely got a great workout in and had a great time doing it! You will need to sign a waiver and you will also want to inform your kids to try their best to be safe! One of our kids lost their grip while swinging back and forth on a bar and they fell backwards hitting their head on the ground. There is not much padding on the ground either so it is a very hard impact! A ski or bike helmet would be a good idea for next time! Workout gloves would be great to have as our kids got blisters from doing all of the ropes and bars. Barleycorn's is also conveniently located next door if you want to plan lunch or dinner for a group!

This event kick my butt, and made me realized I'm so out of shape. My little workout routine at home is nothing compared to what they do here at this gym. This is not the traditional gym that you can jump in your treadmill or a machine, and do your workout. To the 2 hours I spent here, the regimen seemed innovative, but at the same time traditional. I like how Joe, the owner seemed supportive and encouraging to the members and guest participants. This is my first time in a gym like this, and I am impressed with the camaraderie that I observed. Since this is my first time he did not even charge me for experiencing a great workout. If you're into challenging your mind and body this is the place for you. I feel intimated at first and making excuses to myself, but the end of the session, I feel proud that I was able to endure the 2 hour event. Let us support our local businesses, and check them out!

She may not treat you quite as poorly if you pay a lot for personal training for body building competitions and are a male.

The instructor, Kim Henry-Kuehn http://issuu.com/cincinnati/docs/delhi-press-113011 has been teaching Jazzercise for over 20 years, so she knows a thing or two about keeping people in shape. I came directly from work and changed in the bathroom. I would have enjoyed a coat hook or two so that I didn't have to set my stuff on the floor. No big deal. The check in process involved little more than me signing a waiver in case I pulled a hamstring or something. This month (March) is bring a friend free Tuesday I believe. There are specials and deals that change frequently so check their site for more info. http://www.jazzercise.com/specialoffers_uscoupon.htm The 60 minute workout consisted of a warmup, 30 minute aerobic workout followed by a weights section and then cool down. Honestly, it was less of a challenge than I thought it would be, but I do have a bit of calf pain from some of the jumping movements. Good! The doors were left open which provided a nice breeze that kept everyone cool. Once you get the routine down, you can really make the workout harder, I was glad that I could keep up for the most part. The moves aren't too feminine but occasionally I was glad I was in the back of the class. Guys, if you go, don't try the heaviest weights (8 lbs) unless you are in decent shape. Jazzercise focuses more on reps than small sets with heavy weights. I wish the ab workout would have been a little more intense, it felt more like an afterthought in the routine. The music was great, as far as my exercise music tastes go. Lots of top 40 and the occasional slower song made the time go fast. Whatever you do to keep in shape, the key is to be consistent. I think Jazzercise makes it easy to find a convenient time and location, so kudos to them for keeping people in shape. I was glad to take a break from Yelping and have the opportunity to switch up my workout.

Most gyms have what I call "Man Land", an area where the testosterone-protein fueled guys grunt and…read morestrut around like peacocks. Jazzercise is a place where people of all body types and ages can workout without feeling self conscious. I have been doing Jazzercise since I was 14 years old and have never tired of it! Every class is different because the routines and music change so regularly. Its as close to going to a dance club as exercising can get. Many people worry about not being able to follow along with the routines, but they shouldn't. It takes about a week to get the basic moves down and after that routines are easy to pick up with the guidance of the instructor. If you want to learn some of the basic moves before you come, check out these excellent videos: http://www.jazzercise.com/learn_bmoves.htm Depending on how hard you work, you can burn up to 600 calories in a one hour class! The class includes about 40 minutes of aerobics and 20 minutes of stretching and sculpting (arms, abs, and legs). No matter what your fitness level, you will feel the (good) burn at Jazzercise. Talking specifically about this location... It is located in a strip mall in Delhi across from Dueber's Automotive. It is easy to find and there is always plenty of parking. Facilities are clean and well-maintained. There are three instructors that teach at different times. Kim, the owner of the location, teaches the 4:20 and 5:30 classes during the week and the Saturday and Sunday morning classes. She is high energy and knows how to push you to a great work out! The class times are really convenient for me. As a teacher, I can go straight from school to the 4:20pm class. It keeps me from going home and getting lazy and skipping class! I am a walking advertisement for Jazzercise. I have tried almost every fitness program out there and this is the only one that gives me a great workout but keeps me from getting bored. Try it for a week, you will find out you love it!
