I was able to shed over 30 pounds with her help. Not only that, but I felt stronger and stronger every time I worked with her. Her workouts are tough and so much fun. The workouts changed every time I saw her so I never knew what to expect and that kept things fresh. Sometimes we worked out outside without any equipment. Other times, we used equipment in ways I didn't know was possible. I've learned so much from her and my experience at the gym will never be like it used to thanks to Jess!

I signed up with them excited to get back into shape about 2 years ago. I initially went in on a 28…read moreday promotion but was told it wouldn't benefit me very much and that I should consider signing up on their regular plan. The plan was much more expensive and initially I planned to sign up for 3 months. The trainer selling myself and my two friends at the time said I should sign up for a year and if I needed to cancel anytime all I needed to do was give 30 days notice. That was enough for me to sign up for the year. I enjoyed my first 8 months there and felt the benefits but then I was forced to move due to life circumstances. I wrote them giving my 30 day notice and was told that it didn't exist. After some back and forth with no avail, I re-told the story of my signup. The owner John said if that was what Antonio said, they would honor it but that it was against their policy to offer that. I bet you can guess that Antonio "Forgot" that happened so I was stuck. They offered a pause on my membership but said I would be billed even though they failed to provide me the contract and lied to me to get me into the agreement to begin with. WORST experience of customer service ever. All for a few grand. What a scam of a business this place is. Warning to EVERYONE do not enter into long term agreements with them as they will not honor their end of the deal.

I've taken the spin class as well as the yoga class and I enjoyed both. I also come with my trainer and just pay her drop in fee, if I go in before 5pm it's not busy which is great. The prices are also very reasonable and it's a great location for me! The only downside is if you buy the 10 class pass, it's just stored in their computer so it's a bit hard to remember how many you've used without them checking in their system.

Stephanie was really understanding of an existing injury and my chronic leg pain issues, she designed bodyweight-focused workouts that didn't leave me feeling worse or confused of how I could do them on my own. Also a very sincere and funny lady to work with, which is great when you're feeling intimidated by a new fitness routine! I would highly recommend Area Fitness to anyone seeking a new gym or workout. Awesome location and I always enjoyed the music in the studio.

It's a great small group training club. Maximum group size is 12, but classes usually have fewer…read morepeople because membership is not full yet. They have top-notch training equipment, and they make an effort to know and motivate their members! I didn't purchase their unlimited membership because 'unlimited' means too many options and actually demotivates me to go =) Once you sign up for monthly (4, 8, unlimited etc) membership, they'll give you a personal training session to let you know how to train safely and effectively and measure your body fat percentage - every four month you'll measure again and set goals. I find their training much different from the Goodlife group classes. For one, I want to go to FUEL and challenge myself, whereas it was a drag to go to Goodlife. (Could also be I live right beside FUEL..) I can't complain because of how competitive Goodlife's prices are, but FUEL is a more intimate environment and the trainers will correct my posture and tell me to stop if they think I might hurt myself. After all, it's how often I go and the end results that define what suits me best. Give it a try by registering for their free trial, especially if you live in the neighborhood. I'm sure the variety of training forms and bubbly personality of the instructors won't let you down.

The first couple classes were really hard to get through and I was extremely sore for a few days, but now that I'm on the 4th class I don't feel as sore afterwards. What I like most about fit chicks classes is that being with the same people every week motivates me to not miss a class. I like having a set schedule that forces me to find time in my week. The classes are difficult but you can do them at your own pace. The instructors push and motivate you but they don't judge you if you need to take a step back. I'd recommend this to anyone who wants to kickstart a more active lifestyle. I'm not very active and it's really helped me to make a change.

However this one was not my favorite. The staff did welcome me when I checked in. But they just throw you into the work out. Not a welcoming environment. I felt so lost when it started. I didn't know what I was doing. I think they should at least give you a little pep talk before starting if you are new so you know what will happen. Also, the trainers should be aware you are new and help guide you through. I asked one trainer when I got confused at one point and he was not friendly at all. I felt very out of place and during the workout wanted to walk out. I definitely won't be coming here again.

The only thing I would recommend this place is to put air fresheners and make the gym a little more cleaner. I know this gym is not a commercial one but I really couldn't stand the smell.
