Holy moly, what an amazing facility and workout! FitLab has been around for several months, but…read moreI've only heard about it recently through ClassPass. With zero ratings / new on ClassPass, I decided to sign up to try it out anyways, and it's one of the best decisions I've made this year. Coincidently enough, one of my former fave OTF coach worked out here, so more of a reason to try FitLab! I signed up for their Hybrid Engine class (HYDOX / DEKA training, etc.) for Monday 6AM, but I wanted to see the facility before a full on class so I wouldn't feel as lost, so I then signed up for "open gym" the day prior. Got there a few mins before it started, and I met Coach/Trainer Larry. He was superb! Larry gave us a nice tour around the facility and described the various machines and stations. He also showed us the amenities- bar, sauna, cold plunge. Amazing! He gave us a nice workout that day as well, focusing on DEKA and we utilized a lot of the stuff- rowing machine, air bike, dumbbells, ski erg, weighted balls, ski pulls/pushes, and more. We also did some body weighted exercises and stretches, as well as some outdoor run up and down the hill. After the workout, he showed us some other stations, more focused on Spartan races. Wow, so strong and inspirational! I had an amazing intro, and was looking forward to the actual class the next morning. Next morning quickly approached, and I was ready for the workout! It was the Hybrid Engine workout, and we did a warmup, then we were divided into groups and were told which stations to rotate around. Nice HIIT style workout focusing on items re HYROX and DEKA. We did some of the machines, some farmer carries, RAM burpees, med ball throws, sandbags, and more. Great intro to a lot of the exercises, and I really enjoyed it. Ended the workout with some dynamic stretching, and I tried the sauna and cold plunge for the first time in my life. Full facilities- locker room, showers, toilets, etc. Shared, which is fine by me. Looking forward to signing up for more classes!

Among them, Carah Hering stands out as my all-time favorite fitness instructor. She imparts her expertise in Line Dancing, ZUMBA, Aqua-ZUMBA, and Cardio Dance, fostering a sense of community that transcends the club. Carah helps coordinate dance parties and trips throughout the year, she also encourages the celebration of birthdays and other life milestones in a unique and memorable manner. These events provide an unparalleled opportunity for camaraderie and shared experiences. Recently, I underwent hip replacement surgery, and Carah's classes served as my greatest motivation to heal and resume dancing with my Oakwood Dance Sisters. If you are passionate about dance or eager to explore this art form, I wholeheartedly recommend all the dance classes offered at the Oakwood Athletic Club.

I work from home and have young children so Theo made it possible for me to keep my schedule and have an eye on my kids at the same time. He is very professional and you can tell he's a therapist too because we were able to address my motivation during times when I didn't want to exercise. He was able to switch up the exercises to keep me interested and adapting. We did Boot Camps, Circuit training, boxing (great mental release too!), and even did a few of our sessions in the pool because of his background teaching swimming lessons. Unfortunately I no longer live in the area but I would recommend him to anybody looking for a unique fitness experience and is well worth his price. I also heard he works as a senior fitness health specialist and I'm going to have him start working with my mother who is 65 years old when she gets out of physical therapy. Okay, now I'm babbling but I think it's pretty clear what I think of him :) Theo, i'll be contacting you when I come back through the area for another session in the park!

I have a personal trainer back home, and it was great to have Theos psychotherapeutic influence in our training. It felt like a combination of therapy and exercise.

I will definitely have a few more sessions next time I'm in town! Thanks Theo!

Bur apparently 2 weeks ago he put his sign on the parking. It would be nice to notify the lady who runs children center in writing so she can notify her clients. The sign is very blurry and hard to see in the dark. He could have left a warning note on the car but instead he chose to tow it leaving me and my 10 yo son stranded without jackets and a wallet on a cold rainy day. On top of it all the tow company stole our identity from a credit card (it was the only charge over the past 2 days and very soon we got a fraud alert). I wouldn't be supposed if this man has a financial gain from involving tow company otherwise I can't see why simple note wouldn't be enough at first.

Turned out I've done some movements incorrectly that cause past injuries I started with CC a few weeks ago but in such a short time, I can already see the result. He breaks down each exercise and explains things in a way I can understand. I am the type that overthink too much, ask too many questions, and need to watch and rewatch and rewatch every movement before it makes sense to me.. he's so patient despite my never ending questions. Most importantly, he makes it fun! It's never one or two boring movements, it's always something new and every little movement builds up my strength. Some of the things I've learned to do since I started: mace (google it; it doesn't look hard but boy, it's one of the most challenging exercises I'm still struggling with); kick and punch (like for reals), and a bunch of core works I absolutely detested and have slowly learned to like (not love, just like). CC is one of the best decisions I've made in my fitness journey!!

It never feels generic or rushed everything we do has a purpose. One thing that really stands out is how organized and thoughtful she is. She created a clear, structured day-to-day plan for our sessions and even shared an Excel sheet so I can easily see and track what we're working on. Being able to visualize my progress keeps me motivated and accountable, and it shows how much she genuinely cares about helping me succeed. Her approach is incredible. There's absolutely no pressure or intimidation just steady encouragement, positivity, and motivation. She knows exactly when to push me and when to adjust, which makes every session both productive and enjoyable. We have fun, we laugh, but we also work hard going from lifting heavy to even heavier weights that I never imagined I would be able to do. I feel stronger both physically and mentally. On top of that the studio is not crowded. It's truly one-on-one, and the focus is completely on you. The entire team at Studio Flex is incredibly friendly and welcoming. The environment feels supportive, comfortable, and uplifting, which makes showing up something I genuinely look forward to. I'm so grateful to be training here and would highly recommend Gabrielle and Studio Flex to anyone looking for a supportive, motivating, and results-driven experience.

As a result, I had all but given up trying to reestablish a routine. My back has been an issue for decades and I thought that I'd tried everything - chiropractics, physical therapy, massage, acupuncture, accupressure ... you name it. I'd resolved to just live with the nearly constant discomfort and occasional debilitating spasms. However, Gabriele has changed my perspective by focusing on carefully building core strength while not aggravating other issues.

I can't say enough good things about her adaptive approach and positive energy!
