My wife and I have been trying to get in shape, going up n down w/results. We joined a gym n…read morelooked into their personal trainers but weren't impressed w/what we got for the extra cost. Decided to try Wally n signed up for 6 mos. It's been about a month and we are super satisfied!! Already feeling a lot better and the results are slow as we just started but they're coming. Got him to give us his nutrition guidance which is great info. His trainers, when Wally isn't there, are great and his clients have all been very friendly. BL - def recommend if you need help like we do.

Let me start off by describing Wally. He is one of those charming people who can get away with…read moresaying anything because he does this in such a respectful, motivational and genuine way. You can see he genuinely loves what he does, and more importantly KNOWS what he is doing, not just because he knows the science, but also because he has years of experience of watching muscles being molded. He makes the gym routines work. The gym itself is well equipped, and small enough that everyone is watched. You prepay for a fixed number of days (you choose) every month, everything is transparent, and you get circuit routines designed by Wally every week; which can modified for someone post-physical therapy or for someone training competitively - this is where the trainer's watchful eye comes in. While consistency is key to any fitness routine or gym, a good trainer and a friendly community can make this change easier, faster and injury-free. One of the best gyms in Augusta!

While I give kudos to the coaches and overall environment at the OTF Evans, my level of…read moredissatisfaction with management, in particular, Jennifer, has overshadowed anything positive I could ever say about them. On October 7, 2022 I sent an email to the studio manager stating that I needed to cancel my membership due to military obligations. I sent the email approximately 35 days in advance in accordance with the 30-day membership cancelation policy set forth in my contract. I did not receive a response or any form of acknowledgement until 9 days later, on October 16th when I sent yet another email (on the 15th of October) following up on the previous one. This is where the problem began. Initially, the manager, Jennifer, offered that I put my account on a temporary hold/freeze for 30 days. When I stated that the unpredictability of my current schedule was the cause of the cancellation and that I didn't know how long that would go on she proceeded with the cancellation and sent me a form to fill out which I returned the same day. A brief time after she received the form, I get an email in which she casually greeted me with "Hey" and proceeded to tell me that because the system "could not backdate" the cancellation to the day that I initially sent the email she would have to charge me for an extra month because the 30 days had now passed. However, out of the KINDESS of her heart she stated that she would lower the fee to the basic package ($79) as a "convenience" to me rather than the $109 that I paid monthly. When I questioned the logic of being penalized for her unresponsiveness even though I followed the guidelines of the contract and stated that I would not be rejoining the club again... ever, I received no response back. I was appalled and furious that I was be being penalized for what essentially boils down to her inability to function as a manger and check her emails in a timely manner. To add insult to injury, when the final charge came out of my account, I was charged the full amount and not the lower fee as she stated in the email. Needless to say, I won't be back again.

The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful with signing up for class, and when my heart rate monitor wasn't working, they were eager to troubleshoot it and help find solutions until it worked (including let me use a different monitor instead). Each time I've visited this studio, I just so happened to have Lynn as my coach, and she was fantastic. She is incredibly encouraging and full of energy. Also, on my last time there, she included a motivational quote in the workout, which was a nice touch! Overall, I'd definitely recommend this studio to any family or friends in the area, and I know I'll be coming back when I'm in town. Outside of just this particular studio, I highly recommend Orangetheory in general. In a separate review, I've said this before, but in my opinion, OTF is the next-best thing to having a personal trainer. The workout involves high intensity interval training with heart rate monitoring. Every class is different and leaves you feeling both accomplished and inspired to reach your fitness goals. Not to mention, each is an incredibly efficient way to get a good workout in within 1 hour - which is so important when you have a busy schedule. I've been a member for over a year now and haven't had a bad class yet - including when I travel and check out studios across the country.

I had no idea what to expect, except sweat and maybe a few tears. The sweat was there, but no tears. This team knew how to push you without pushing too far. They were always encouraging and supportive, right there besides (sometimes working out beside you). They were the reason I forced myself to come some days. The facility has it all; assault bikes, pull up bars, dumbbells, kettle bells, and more. I guess when a new workout is coming at you every time you have to have any possible equipment on deck. This place was a life changer for me. My focus, my sleep, my weight, and my confidence all experienced a positive effect from my time there. Get there now!
