The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because the area where the personal trainers are has equipment I would like to use but was told I am not allowed. This is unfortunate because they don't have that equipment anywhere else. Besides that this is a great gym with amazing protein shakes, perfect steam room, a relaxing sauna and a well needed recovery room.

It's actually an hours pass. I purchased at 5pm or so they are open till 10pm and it was NOT valid until 5pm the following day. Not cool But every gym is entitled to make whatever rule they want. I just feel they should name it something else Other than that I recommend.

I really love everything about this place…read more The new studio is so beautiful. Its still under a little bit of construction so be mindful. When I went into my first class through classpass I didn't really know what to expect. I used to dance in high school and did gymnastics so I was hoping for the best. There were women of all ages and all body types. There were about 10 people in the class. Everyone was given their own mat, ball, and a stretchy band. You also have your own section of the ballet bar. The class moves quickly and works parts of your body that you don't know existed. We were moving the entire time, but the hour flies by. Personally I loved the class. If you once danced, did gymnastics, or heck want to dance, this is the class for you. I didn't get that pretentious vibe that I get every time walking into Lithe. Prepare to have a girl crush on Jillian. Shes a great instructor!

First it was really hard to find a place you have to turn down the alley which wasn't reflected…read morewell on Google maps. The instructor was warm and bubbly but this studio is kind of tiny. It's a good thing they were only three of us taking the class today. It was kind of awkward for me. Least favorite class I've taken so far from class pass and I didn't feel it matched the class description well. It was branded as a high energy Bey/Nikki/RiRi HIIT class but it seemed more like barre class with hit song's playing softly in the background. I did break a good sweat though, so...Mission Accomplished! I got in a good workout but it wasn't fun or engaging so I'll try somewhere else Update: the manager reached out to me and explained that a new instructor was subbing that course and did a bikini barre class with the Bey/Nikki/RiRi soundtrack which made so much sense. She invited me back to do the actual cLass I signed up for and it was much more fun and engaging than the first class I did

I had never done group fitness like this before so I was scared at first, but after my first drop-in I took the plunge for the full membership! The coaches are so caring and knowledgeable.

This is the only fitness program that I've maintained for the long haul in larger part to the accountability of seeing the same people each class.

Even after leaving Novem, I continue to reap the benefits of lifelong friendships and the knowledge of how to care for my body through different stages of life.

I love this gym! It's a 45 min HIIT (high intensity interval training) workout. Cardio days are…read moreM,W,F, and Tues/Thur are strength days. Saturdays are a hybrid (cardio and strength) and are 1 hour so pace yourself! If you're looking for a gym where you will see results and feel stronger and healthier, I highly recommend. The unlimited class membership is pricey, but the best value. It's $180 per month for unlimited classes, but the prices can fluctuate if they have promos. The strength day workouts typically include dumbbells, barbells, kettlebells, and body weight. A lot of the common exercises are burpees, kettlebell swings, lunges, deadlifts, squats, jump squats, push-ups, kettlebell cleans, and mountain climbers. Most members are between 20-35 years old, but they welcome all ages.

I have been to other F45 gyms around the country and this one is smaller in size so it is more…read morecramped and feels a bit messy. Since it is smaller, the stations don't seem to be as divided so visually it isn't the best workout at an F45 gym I have had. I started with the $7 for 7 day trial and my gosh they were SO SALESY...I got the ick. I didn't have the energy in me to keep coming back to after I went 2x (my goal was 4), I didn't come back. After every class they ask you to chat in their office and try to sell you on signing up for a membership. There should be a rule that you at least come to 3 classes before they start grilling you like this. I really do love an F45 workout and I have been going to a different F45 gym. The workouts are the same globally and I feel it's a very good workout. At this gym, and others, I got a good workout in thanks to the coaches who are always there to help you with your form and they push you to go harder. This is a great way to get a personal training session in without the cost of a trainer. This is great for those who are too scared to go to the weights section of the gym...I have built a lot of confidence thanks to F45!

It's the cheapest gym in the area I could find. $300 for a year at time of writing. Cash only…read more It's a black iron gym. A church of iron. Mostly free weights, some resistance machines, and a handful of cardio machines. There are more barbells than there is space. The machines are all dated which isn't necessarily a bad thing. You'll find cable and leg press machines, for example, but no assisted dip or glute press. That said - if you go in the early afternoon, you probably won't have to wait to use any equipment. For a year I've lived just a 5 minute walk away without knowing they existed because their website is broken and they seem to not be interested in web marketing. One can reasonably guess from that, and the casual banter among regular guests and staff, that their business model is based on client retention rather than acquisition. There's certainly a bodybuilder atmosphere - the walls are plastered with 80s bodybuilder magazine clippings, bleached from age, showing off tanned mass monsters and curated headlines-turned-word-art featuring phrases like "MASSIVE" and "JACKED" and "CANNONS." It's hilariously kitsch but charming. Anyway, there's a bit more testosterone in this gym than you'd find in a casual franchise gym, but everyone's cool. I believe personal training is available but I haven't bothered. Only thing missing is 24 hour access. Also, from the street, you climb a tall flight of stairs up to the gym itself. If you're not careful, walking down these steep stairs after leg day may be the end of you.

The elevators are not great and often only 2/3 work. I think more transparency would be nice. 2) Showers start to flood within 30-seconds. It's gross and I, again, wish there was some transparency on why this isn't addressed. 3) The lack of outlets. This one is most frustrating as it seems to have the most straightforward solution. No outlets under the table in the library? Come on guys. Get a power strip or something please. Outlets by more seats on the 3rd floor mezzanine and terrace would be game changing! Please

I quite enjoyed my time at he Bellevue for a while that it's done a complete 180 in the last…read moreseveral months. The good: Very big and nice facilities with amazing great variety of equipment. A TON of group fitness classes if you're into that including free reformer Pilates classes (if you can get in.) Issues (that are unacceptable in general or just completely insane to have at the membership price point...these are things you deal with a budget gym or someplace you go for free): Constant elevator issues which cause lines and long wait times during peak hours. And for the last 6+ months they've only had two of three functioning if that. You know it's an issue, fix it for goodness sakes. Good luck if you rely on parking here. The entrance are closed half the time causing you to have to detour for a good ten plus minutes to get in and then exiting you're stuck behind trucks delivering in the alley they've left "open" for you to get out. And yes the validate but they randomly increased the price from $11 to $12 one day. Not a huge deal but why not tell members in advance? It's just sloppy. The sound systems are suboptimal for group classes especially in the HIIT studio. It is a vibe killer for sure. The spa that we were promising was coming soon when we joined in November of 2023 is still nowhere to be found. The locker rooms are adequately maintained but there are so many privacy issues. Often there are signs that there will be men working in the women's locker room. And the phone use is NUTS. People are on video conference calls! How is this allowed?? The cafe hours stink for early birds. If I'm done with my workout before 7am and I want coffee, I'm SOL. It's also insanely expensive. I cannot speak for the food there because I won't eat it after I saw a mouse in the cafe area while I was working from there one day. Treadmills are constantly broken. They added a bunch and now there's somehow less available because they cannot seem to maintain them. Out of service for a day or two is one thing but it goes way longer than that. Good luck and Godspeed accessing an assault bike or a ski erg between 10:15 and 2pm on weekdays. They're fully monopolized by the turf class and the HIIT studio is used for classes including mat Pilates (??) Generally speaking maintenance seems to be an issue. A pedal was hanging off one of the two assault bikes on the main floor this week when I was using it. A tread was sticking a few weeks ago when I started to run on it. I couldn't strap my foot into a rower the other day. It doesn't seem like it would be too much to ask that they keep their eye on this. I do feel like it used to be under control but had fallen off a cliff recently. Too many people here are shooting footage for social media. I cannot complete a workout without being concerned I'm in the background of someone's selfie-video or photo shoot. Hotel guests have full access to the gym. It adds to the insane crowds on the weekend and needs to get in check. Many of the trainers and instructors are great but a handful of trainers that either do personal training or turf classes are flat out RUDE. I was treated disrespectfully and even bullied by one of them while minding my own business just trying to complete my workout. This is embarrassing for the gym and needs to be addressed. Ultimately, I could no longer justify being a paying member with so little care shown by management about the member experience. Perhaps spending less time posting less on social media and more time listening to an addressing member feedback would be helpful.

There is a phone number you can call or text for questions. When I called nobody answered and I left a message. After waiting for about 30 minutes I was able to follow in behind someone and access the gym. The gym is pretty minimalistic but has all the basic equipment. Definitely a weightlifting gym. Once I started working out someone finally texted me back. I think they definitely need a different process especially for classpass members. The instructions aren't great and they definitely need to invest in a person that can be available 24/7 for troubleshooting purposes.

If I were to put myself in a box, I'd say I'm typically a yogi who periodically thinks "ok, let's…read morebe open minded about other options" and dabbles in other fitness, and then in this case immediately regrets dabbling when she is sore for the next five (FIVE!) days. But the good kind of sore? I took Emily's 7:30 am boot camp class and while the playlist was straight fire, my thighs were also on fire. We were a small group, so we were able to all get personal attention on form. Emily had laid out what we were going to do and made use of the timers, so I didn't have to count down the seconds myself. We used lots of different equipment (kettlebells, weights, jump ropes, ergs) and it made the 45 minutes go by a lot faster than I usually find at these types of classes. The space is huge, literally an open box, with lots of equipment. It seems some people just stop by and use the equipment, and they also have classes. 10 packs come out to $14 a class and 20 packs $12. They also have a 21 days for $49 pack for new members (which is a great deal) and other student and military discounts. 3x a week is $90 and (this is how they get you at the Movie theater with popcorn sizes) for only an extra $15 you can get unlimited (with 6 month commitment). For a bit extra you can get all access passes. But before you box Open Box into the Crossfit box, check out the upstairs yoga studio! Unlike many gyms where the yoga class is in the same room and its very difficult to feel zen, the yoga studio here is set off, sound proofed, painted a calming color, and has great manduka mats and blocks. I did a private workshop with Emily here and my friends and I had such a good time, she's great at teaching inversions and super encouraging! Open up your mind (and wallet) to Open Box, and you may just open up your heart to them, along with, probably, your hips.
