The format is not for everyone, but I love working out outside (even if it's in a parking lot and it's hot and humid or really cold), the trainers are very engaging, the community is a lot of fun, and the workouts have a surprising amount of variety for just using 2 dumbbells and a mat. Downside for me (and most everyone) is the app, but that's not enough to affect my rating.

But then they starting eliminating camps--cutting times and locations until there were hardly any left. Then they changed the format which wound up giving me pains and injuries. So earlier this year, I decided to switch to the online option, paying $19 per month. Today we get an email saying they are raising the rate to $30 per month--a 58% increase! It took 2.5 hours and multiple attempts to finally get a live person for me to speak to about cancelling my membership. I was told I couldn't do so--the one-year contract I signed stated that it is subject to increases. 58%!!! Stay away from any form of Camp Gladiator in any form!!!

My trainer is Ciaran , who has been an incredible teacher. After the first day, I felt more comfortable about coming to train. Ciaran is very patient, guiding me through this process , taking notes as to my ability, always giving positive feedback in my progress. His attitude and ability to train someone like myself (over the age of 60!) has improved my confidence in my ability to "get in shape" ! I've been sharing the experience with others I interact with as well...encouraging everyone, no matter what your current body shape is...there's hope here! No intimidation what so ever! Happy to be a trainee, Patti Norris :)

I've been on the hunt for a different weight lifting class to enjoy (for variety, accountability and support) in addition to my normal gym membership. I enjoyed the noon lunch class on Monday and knowing that I received total weight training for my upper body. The staff here were extremely welcoming and helpful. The tone slightly shifted a bit when I expressed my needs to compliment an existing gym membership and routine I already have. The plans offered didn't match my preferences. I decided to explore other options.

Great staff, front desk and coaches alike. It's busy and a little cramped in the studio - it's an L shape, which just makes it a little odd for anyone on the end.

They have a coffee shop and ice cream shop close by so you can indulge after your class.

This is due to the fact that most of the workouts require you to do burpees, and other exercises that require you to touch the floor, and the carpet looks as if it is never disinfected and cleaned. Also, there are too many customers working out in each class which made me not feel safe during these post pandemic times.

If you're having doubts about signing up or trying a trial day at Burn, let me encourage you to go for it! Do it for yourself.

Inspirational quotes are on the walls throughout the businesses. There are also bathrooms and storage areas for your items. The gym sells products such as protein powder and workout gear. I first learned about Burn boot camp from a Yelp event I attended. I really enjoyed the workout but I did not return until BBC offered a 6 week "Commit to Fit" special that I participated in. During the six weeks I obtained awesome results losing inches, lowering my weight & body fat percentage. Recently I joined the gym knowing that I will continue to get great results. The trainers like Sarah, Sam & Lindsay are amazing. They are so motivational & encouraging. The trainers make a point to know your name & keep you on track. Modifications are also offered during the 45 minute workout. I love that the workouts are never the same. Each week a protocol is released to inform you about what the workout will focus on each day. The gym also offers focus meetings to discuss your goals, work on any issues such as your diet and determine your progress. BBC also offers childcare for individuals that have children. The gym has fun events like date nights and Christmas parties. They even donate to good causes throughout the year. With a membership you are able to go to other Burn Boot camps in the area. I don't like working out but this gym keeps me motivated & wanting to work out frequently. Check them out with a free two week trial!

The place is located in an open air plaza right off the road, and took me a second of driving to find it. First impression of the facility - great open space, nice equipment, and a great upbeat owner that greeted me at the door: Erin Studdard. She was so motivational throughout the whole workout and remembered everyone's name. The workout itself: WHEW! It had me close to passing out for my first time. Erin does an amazing job of tailoring and modifying to your level/injuries, which is important. She also implies a full lifestyle approach, focusing on nutrition/diet and a balanced intake aside from the high intensity workout. I wasn't bored for a single minute. The thing that gets this place five stars is that they have childcare in the facility. The person watching the kids is super nice and seems to handle kids very well. Also, all the ladies that I met were super friendly and welcoming to newcomers! I look forward to going back for more! Definitely give this place a try!

Apparently, it's been around for 30 years, but I just discovered it when a yoga meetup/nonprofit listed their classes online. I first went to try their Adaptive Yoga class, which is on Mondays. As I left, Anita handed me a pass to try a class for free when she noticed me looking at the schedule. When I mentioned that my Mom would probably like it there, she even handed me one for my Mom! I've since been back a couple times to try their twice monthly Yoga for the Core class on Fridays. That one is my favorite. They have group and small group fitness classes every day of the week so the hours vary based upon what's offered from 6am to 7pm. I'm looking forward to trying more, but in the meantime, I intend to keep returning for those yoga classes. My only complaint is that I wish they weren't directly across from Cookout!
