    To enter this gym you must walk through a boutique/coffee shop. I don't want to have to walk…read morethrough trinkets and clothing while smelling coffee to get to the gym. The gym itself is in what feels like a basement. It is small and cramped. There were only three of us in there at the time but I couldn't imagine it on a busy day. I signed up for a free week trial membership. Which is a lovely perk to offer potential new clients. Upon arriving I was given a tour by the person at the front desk. She made sure that before she took me downstairs she found someone to cover her at the front desk. About half way through the tour a woman, I'm assuming manager, came over to us holding a laundry basket. Before saying hi or introducing herself she basically scolded the woman giving me the tour saying "who is watching the front desk if you're down here? I'll finish the tour and you can go back upstairs". At that point this manager woman put on a big fake smile and introduced herself to me and then finished the tour. This interaction alone immediately told me this was not the gym for me. It may be a women's only gym but it didn't provide the feeling of women supporting women. The gym itself is honestly, depressing. No windows. No softness. It's a basement with workout equipment. I chose not to return for remainder of the free trial and certainly wouldn't spend $75 a month to go there.

    I really enjoy being a part of this amazing community. They have a variety of classes that suit all…read moreschedules. Being part of an all women's gym has given me a sense of discipline and empowerment. All the women I've met have been really supportive. The facility is really clean too, with showers and a sauna. Reasons why my review is three stars: - In less than a year, two separate classes got their instructor changed THREE times. There seems to be a lot of turnover amongst the staff and while it's inconvenient to my workout schedule, it makes me wonder what's happening behind the scenes that causes sooo much turnover. - I wish there was an option to rent your own locker. I take public transit so it's difficult to lug around all my work/gym/clean clothes. Paying an additional fee for a rented locker would make life so much easier. - I would love either a free/reduced membership for people of the BIPOC community. Or a free weekly/monthly class for BIPOC women. I'm usually the only WoC in my classes and it can feel uncomfortable at times.

    Your basic gym, and I mean that in the best way. Very few meatheads as a rule, and the ones that…read moreare there are the cool kind who just like working out a lot. Mostly very Portland community members. A fair number of regular older folks-- myself included, I imagine-- and an otherwise diverse crowd (for Portland, that is.) It's been meticulously clean in the months that I've been going there. There's always someone walking around wiping things off, redistributing weights to their racks, and just generally keeping the place clean and functional. I used to go to 24 hour in Hollywood, and I always felt like I should get a penicillin shot afterwards. I literally listened to a guy talk about his staph infection IN THE SAUNA. And the bros. Oh boy. It's hard enough to get comfortable going to a gym without a bunch of performative insecurity on display. I've read these "I joined on an impulse but then I decided I wanted my money back" posts and imagine that has to be a non-stop thing at a gym, but if you really want to just go somewhere to exercise, I can't imagine a better deal. The MAC's not giving your money back, either, by the way. Pros: Cheap. Clean. Well equipped. Pleasant vibe. 24 hours. Did I mention cheap? Cons: I could use fewer TVs, honestly. Gotta complain about something, I guess. There's no pool, sauna, tennis courts, whatever. Not cons so much as just true if that's what you want.

    It's disappointing to see this framed as a financial favor. The "free months" referenced were…read moreactually credits for periods that had already been paid for but during which services were not provided as advertised. These were not gifts; they were adjustments for time the facility was closed or unavailable. In addition, I had posted funds to my account for future months and was never told they needed to be manually applied. I was later publicly criticized for not doing so, despite never being given that information. I was also concerned when the owner attempted to publicly share my personal information on another platform. That content was removed after a cease-and-desist was issued. Consumer protection laws address situations where customers are charged for services not rendered, which is why those credits existed in the first place. Rather than addressing concerns, the owner chose to personally criticize a former member for leaving an honest review. That approach reinforces many of the issues other reviewers have already described, and it has the effect of drawing more attention to those reviews. Situations like this make it difficult to feel comfortable as a member or to resolve concerns in good faith. I hope the business chooses to focus on improving the member experience rather than attacking customers who share their experiences.

This studio is perfect on all counts. It is light, bright, spacious, and clean. I love the colorful touches without being over the top. I am absolutely trying to figure out how to incorporate spherical paper lanterns into my home lighting scheme. I've only attended a few classes so I can't speak to their entire breadth of instructors and yoga styles, but those I have attended I have enjoyed. Instructors have been friendly and welcoming to everyone, suggesting modifications as needed. All necessary materials have been supplied except yoga mats (it's a $2 rental). They do various workshops/events/series/promotions, like yoga for bigger bodies, sound healings, yoga for scoliosis, a promo for people who bike to class, gut health workshop, etc. Pricing as of today on their website: $45 new student one-month intro, $18 per drop-in class, $160 for a ten-class card (expires in 6 months), $75 for five-classes monthly, $85 for unlimited monthly. They offer a scholarship program and a work study program. Street parking only. Nice to be near some food and drink options for happy hour before or dinner after class!

    These have to be the friendliest people on the planet. Wanted too take beginning Qi Gong classes…read moreand though they had more workshop oriented in my particular thing. The young girl kept working on looking for me classes at other places that may suit my needs. As a result I have decided to settle for beginning Yoga and join there community pricing as it appears to be a good savings. The environment is simple, clean and comfortable. Plus they have mats and all sorts of accessories to use for free. Definitely my kind of place. I highly recommend.
