The class was a fast paced total body workout that included the treadmill, bike, tower and weights that could be modified to the various fitness levels of my bridesmaids. Kathy's coaching style was perfect for our group - she pushed us to work harder and motivate us, but was extremely personable. We had a great time, worked up a sweat and got to finish the class with mimosas. If I lived near the studio I would definitely attend fitness classes at elevate on a regular weekly basis!

She has opened up a new world by teaching me about my body and how to use it efficiently. I feel muscles now that I never knew I had. When she re-introduced me to PIlates, it was part of a life changing phenomenon which slowly and steadily eliminated decades of back pain. Her laser focus in making assessments about my body then programming my fitness accordingly is as much an art as it is a science. At 68 years old, I feel stronger than I did when I was young. I now have more flexibility, stability and physical confidence than I have in years. She has helped me recover through various orthopedic surgeries with Pilates and other techniques - all more successfully than the required physical therapies. She also takes care of my overall well-being in subtle ways and deeply understands the connection between physical, emotional, and mental health. I feel so lucky to have the benefit of her wisdom, compassion and expertise. She is not just a trainer and a coach but also a gracious role model for living a healthy. full and engaged life. Her daughter Remy is equally gifted and is a master MFR practitioner in addition to an amazing trainer. The studio is a safe, non judgmental haven for people who care about their health and fitness.

I like to use the C2 erg machine; they grease the chain and keep a fresh battery in the PM5 rowing computer. But that's not what's leading me to write this review. This morning, there was an older gentleman in the gym. He had memory issues: I met him once, but he met me five times. I noticed the owner subtly keeping an eye on him. When he finished his workout, the owner asked the gentleman's permission to call his daughter, then escorted him out. He did this respectfully and in a caring manner. When one of the other patrons mentioned it, the owner talked about the gentleman with as much respect and care as he'd demonstrated earlier. Honestly, the whole thing was so wholesome that I got choked up in the middle of my set. TL;DR: Great gym. Absolutely outstanding owner. Six, eight, ten stars.

I have to say, there's a HUGE difference between the Middletown and Newport locations. The owner in…read moreNewport genuinely cares about the business and is always there. The gym looks beautiful and is exceptionally well maintained. They even offer fitness classes! The difference between these two locations is like night and day. You would never believe they're part of the same franchise. Newport is hands-down the better location: cleaner, better maintained, and staffed with knowledgeable people who are actually present and know what they're talking about. It's a completely different experience!

The three top reasons that I LOVE this gym are... Motivation…read moreUniqueness Cleanliness "Motivation" because the owners and staff are filled with enthusiasm and expertise thus creating a positive environment to challenge you and to help you to reach your fitness goals while maintaining joy throughout the process. I am always greeted with smiles and encouragement and there are so many classes and fitness props to choose from that you can never get bored with the same routine, there are a plentitude of options everyday to keep everyone motivated and to help all of us to reach our goals! I say "us" rather than "me" because Pulse Gym is a team of members working together towards the same goal, to become the best that we can be while encouraging each other along the way to ultimate fitness! "Uniqueness" because this gym is very special due to the many services offered outside of fitness. I can workout, relax with a sauna, take a shower followed by a cup of tea or coffee then go to the hair/makeup salon and if needed, get a spray tan. Once finished with all the options available I can then change into a pretty dress and Ta-Dah! I'm all ready to return to work or to go out on the town for the evening :) Oh, and if you have children the child care gym is off the chart in being AWESOME! The owners are on the cutting edge of the industry in knowing how to combine the perfect place to get it all done with professionalism and class all without stress :) "Cleanliness" is the most important factor to me in choosing a gym and Pulse Gym and Studios surpasses all my expectations! Every single day that I arrive at the Pulse Gym or to their other locations I am greeted with a clean space, fresh air and cold filtered water. These are the three necessities that are important to me to allow for the best foundation for a workout environment. Workout towels are also provided as are cleaning stations to cleanup your area after your workout. The bathrooms and showers are sparking clean as well! This is by for the very best place to workout on the island! So what are you waiting for !?! Try it out as soon as you can, this fabulous boutique gym will not disappoint!

Some may be thinking...4* for a Planet Fitness. I am…read morethinking yes and why not? First of all, let me say that this is the cleanest Planet Fitness location that I have ever been to. Most previous locations I've been to have been in Brooklyn but whatever the case may be this is the cleanest. This spot is fairly new so let's hope they keep on top of it. They get a star for convenience and accessibility. It seems like there is a shortage of gyms on this island. Why they (or another major chain) has not opened shop here previously is beyond me. For the price, they can not be beaten. The plan I grabbed (speak more on this below) is only 20 bucks a month. This includes access to this location and any other, use of massage chairs, beds, tanning, and unlimited guest passes. They always seem to have specials going on for new sign-ups such as 1.00 down and 10 bucks a month or similar. Another star would be for a large amount of equipment. The free weights may be limited and do not go very high in weight so for the heavy lifters not familiar with Planet Fitness I would say you may want to seek another location but it is so cheap that you may as well grab a membership for light days and cardio. Nothing really negative to say. As far as my membership goes mentioned above...when I initially signed up I was charged a 49.00 sign-up fee. Two days later I see a deal for zero fees or something insignificant like 1 dollar. I asked an employee if they would honor that for me seeing I had just signed up. The first told me no. The next two said they were unsure and I would need to speak with a manger. Took a couple more visits to actually see a manager as I was told they had a shortage. Said manager (and I wish I could recall his name) said it would not be a problem and resolved it by freezing my monthly fee to make up for the initial sign-up fee. Since then, another employee called me to assure me that it was going in to affect which was cool.

Again, gym and staff are fine - but DO NOT join this gym, they will find every way possible to keep charging you for unrendered servides and will steal as much as they can from you
