I'm in West Columbia a couple of weeks each month and needed a place to run indoors during the…read morehot/humid summer months of SC to train for a marathon. I came across their website, which was very clear and informative about memberships and staffing hours. It sounded perfect for my needs. I signed up for a month-to-month membership. After going there for a couple of weeks, I know this was the right choice: * Jason and Wendy are very down to earth and have created a great place to go work out * A good selection of treadmills and other cardio equipment * Extra fans set up in the cardio area. If you've ever run 15+ miles on treadmill in a gym, you know the fans are a huge bonus * Space and equipment for post-run stretching * Lots of free weights and machines for strength training * Water and hydration drinks available to buy - very reasonably priced * Very clean * 24x7 access for members I wouldn't go anywhere else in the greater Columbia area.

I've been lifting in the Columbia area since the mid 1990s and have found two non-private gyms that…read moreI like. This is one of them (the other closed 25 years ago.) Very well equipped, with both free weights and machines including an awesome old school leg press. They also have multiple dumbbell stations throughout, helps keep folk from stumbling over each other. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good mix of clientele from teens to old pharts like me, from folk just getting started to serious lifters. Lots of parking, good location.....

After being out of the gym for about 6 to 8 months, I was desperately waning to find a place to…read morecall home again. When I began seeing advertisements for powerhouse on social media familiar faces "Jazz and Tamara" whom I've been inspired by their fitness journey for years I was intrigued! I reached out to the profile on Instagram and immediately received the kindness Customer service. From there at side to try 6 AM class and let me tell you I was definitely impressed! The gym offers strength, training and spin classes which I will eventually have to work my way up to the cardio endurance for spin, but I already know that this is going to be a great journey for me. Powered by women that look like me.!

I signed up for the 14-day trial and on my first day I felt absolutely so awkward & uncomfortable. This studio is definitely wasn't for me. I didn't feel welcomed by the other boot campers and felt like their are cliques. Would not be going back. I might give Burn Boot Camp in Lake Murray a try.I love that there are a options in the Columbia area such as Studio Fire and Yoga Six that'll be trying out next.

I've been coming to Pvolve in Columbia since September of this year. I first found out about them…read morethrough ClassPass and I really enjoyed that class so I signed up for their three intro classes for $36. After those three I was sold. The studio space is really nice and clean and they have a separate locker area and section to refresh after classes with mirrors, towels, hair ties, and mints. The owner, Ashley, is great and so are all of the instructors (Erin, Kelly, Sophie, and Gabbie) I've taken classes with and I think I've taken classes with all of them at this point. The workouts themselves are 50-minutes long and they pack a punch. A lot of resistance and balance challenges with some cardio bursts to keep things spicy. The classes go by quickly and it's great for those who want something lower impact but still very challenging. The instructors have all been good about giving modifications to either make the moves more or less challenging depending on where you are at on any given day. It's located in Bullstreet District. There's some construction currently going on near the studio but it doesn't disrupt the classes and I've never had an issue with finding parking. Overall, it's been money well spent. I love showing up, cranking it out, and leaving with a good burn. Would definitely recommend checking them out if you're in Cola.

Sunnyside is by far the best boutique fitness studio I have ever tried. Before coming here, I had…read morenever tried pilates before, but the Sunnyside environment is so welcoming and I felt comfortable asking questions and receiving advice from instructors about the different postures and movements. The studio is so cute and offers a great environment for a fun class. They also sell apparel and jewelry which you can browse before and after class. The class sizes are small, which I love because you get individualized attention and you are able to form relationships with other members of the studio. One of my favorite parts about Sunnyside is that each instructor makes an effort to get to know you. They know your name and your goals which allows them to help you achieve them! I've only been a member at Sunnyside for a couple of months but I have already seen results. I'm stronger than I have ever been thanks to these amazing 50 minute session!

Wow!!! I am going to…read moresay this was one of the MOST friendly gyms that I have ever had the pleasure of going to! I was nervous as I am always about a new gym, especially them knowing that I am only dropping in. That didn't stop me from making pals at this place. The 5 am crew are tight and friendly. The first time that I entered this gym I was approached by who I thought was a member saying " hello new person" this was Joey who I think is one of the head coaches, I think. It didn't take long for him to learn my name. I was also able to me Greta, she is the normal 5 am Coach. Greta, seriously changed my life when she told me to think like a scarecrow when doing a snatch if you are a crossfiter you know that it only takes one person to tell you how to do a movement that can change the way you have been doing everything, and she did! I seriously fell in love with this place, the challenging workouts coupled with the friendly atmosphere, I would totally recommend this place! It does not matter where you are at psychically, go check out Carolina Crossfit, as they will happily help you get where you would like to be!! If i end up back in South Carolina for an extended period of time trust me I will be back to CCF.
