For someone who does not work out regularly I tried Dance Cardio as a great way to get my blood…read morepumping! This was not only a great workout, but the instructor (Elizabeth) made my experience that much better. Let me tell you, every muscle in my body was worked but I did not realize it as I was too busy jamming out to the music. Even someone with 2 left feet (like myself) could follow Elizabeth's instructions as they were thorough and encouraging. As a dancer you can tell she is so talented and loves what she does - her passion beams through this class. The only way someone wouldn't enjoy the energy of this class is if they don't pay attention or if they don't take this workout seriously . I wish I could give more stars, but I HIGHLY recommend taking this class if you want some fun as you sweat!

I tried this out because of the positive reviews and was more than disappointed…read more The class I took felt extremely thrown together last minute. The instructor was just screaming one word, ZERO instruction or encouragement. I left with a headache because of the instructor screaming "yep" over and over again. I also left filthy from rolling around on the dirty floor (literally dirt all over my body at the end of class). Extremely unhygienic!!!!! This is a shared space, not a studio. The only positive thing I took away from this class was a great workout, but I would have rather done it at home with a clean space, encouraging and instructive video. I would not come back nor would I recommend this to a friend.

You cannot pay me to get on the treadmill, so if I'm going to do cardio this is the way I'm gonna accomplish the task. In case you're nervous about this being a room full of professional dancers, it isn't and you're gonna be fine. Everybody's just there to have a good time and flail around the music to the best of their abilities. It's much more about moving and pumping some cardio into your day so no need to feel insecure about your dancing abilities - you're gonna fit in and have a great time! There's also a DJ for every class which is a delightful touch that adds to the party atmosphere. The AMENITIES! WOAH! If you need to take a shower and get ready here, there are two showers in the women's locker room and they're full of Malin + Goetz products. They also have great hair products and a Dyson you can use with a diffuser if needed! The bathroom isn't huge so I could see it getting a little congested and stressful getting ready in the bathroom but wouldn't be a problem if you go during off hours. Overall, this might be my favorite fitness class I've taken in New York City and I will definitely be coming back regularly.

As soon as I stepped in, the staff by the counter greets us and are super helpful and friendly. Keep in mind they look for vaccine verification. There's lockers and showers available. The locker area was really dark, with a water fountain station. And once you open a door, there's the studio! My instructor was so energetic! I thought they would be calm from the reviews, but no no! Not only were they so motivating and fun, but the DJ by the corner mixed trendy songs to match their vibes. We pretty much do dance cardio moves to different pop music the whole class, with a yoga mat ab workout in between. I loved how the lights danced along to the music change. The instructor really embraces feeling confident and loving your body throughout the whole class, that you just finish your class feeling good about yourself. I'm so happy exercising and fun can exist in the same sentence, thanks to 305 Fitness. I would totally come back whenever I want to party but also sweat it out.

There is absolutely zero judgement and you're truly free to just let loose, feel the music, and break a sweat! This is not the place to come if you're looking for heavy weights and sprint drills, but I can guarantee you that you'll get your heart rate up and will leave feeling energized. Also, love the aesthetics. The album covers in the bathrooms are such a vibe!

Yesterday was my first Tremble class, and I feel reborn. There are few things quite as validating as muscle soreness after a tough workout. I feel like a world champion boxer having just finished training camp for a title fight. It feels good to just put the work in. You can't cheat the work. I walked in and thought we were legit in the wrong place. They are doing a full gut remodel, I don't even know how they are open with all this going on. I kind of like that though. It felt more gritty. My extensive pilates background is 5 or 6 solidcore classes, so I walked in kind of shy as I know these girls really get to it. Everyone I talked to before class said this is sooooooo much better than solidcore, but honestly it felt pretty similar. They played better music in here though I gotta give them that. This is a phenomenal workout. Pilates in general is so underrated, I remember the first time I did it thinking it was going to be easy work. WRONG. A nice slice of humble pie is necessary at times. I think it's only a matter of time before these pilates spots get overrun by guys, cuz it will really get you in shape, idk. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov__

Took my first class here after doing megaformer classes at a couple other studios in the city…read more The class was a perfect combination of strength (incorporating moves such as traditional megaformer to completing squats and split squats with the handles). There was also a bit of cardio such as jump squats. The main portion of the workout involved traditional moves on the megaformer. It was the perfect class. Let me tell you I was SHAKING and challenged. I walked out of class and immediately booked two more classes. Highly recommend if you're interested!

The choreography encompasses…read moremany of the same exercises my physical therapist has prescribed to me for strength and stability. The trainers appear to be well trained in kinesiology and exercise science. They execute the weight lifting, toning, and dance moves with safety and injury prevention in mind. The scope and sequence of the on demand classes and live classes are top notch. I truly look forward to each class because of the upbeat personalities of the trainers and motivating music. Contemporary music as well as nostalgic favorites are offered on a regular basis. I appreciate the fact that the choreography is complex and ever changing. This challenges my mind as well as various muscle groups. I recently read that learning new choreography on a regular basis can prevent dementia. Pattern recognition, movement, and music stimulate the brain. HIIT Dance is also offered as well. Studies show that HIIT and weight training balance the hormones, strengthen bones, and build muscle as we age. At 51, I am interested in activities that promote longevity, mobility, strength, and stress reduction. Dance Body offers this to me at a reasonable price. Dance is the only physical activity that has motivated me to stay fit. Jazzercise in the 90's and now Dancebody!

So thankfully, there are unique classes like trampoLEAN out there that keep my workouts exciting so I don't have to drag myself to the gym every time I want to work off the 3 desserts I likely had the night before (#facts). I signed up for the trampoLEAN rave class, thinking that it would just be a fun, little workout on the trampoline where I might sweat a little. HAH. Boy, was I wrong. This is a LEGIT workout, and I guarantee that you will be sweating. A lot. It's basically 50 minutes of non-stop cardio on your mini trampoline, complete with resistance bands (free ones and ones you pull from the ceiling), weights, glow sticks, and of course, rave-y music. Not only did I have a blast jumping every which way on my trampoline (after I got over my initial fear of falling and busting my ass ofc), but it was a great workout! I DEF felt like I burned off most, if not all of my 3 desserts from the night before (thank god so I'll be able to have another 3 desserts the next day), which is all I really want in a workout class. Will 100% be back for another trampoLEAN rave class in the future!

The glove rental was 5$ which was well appreciated for my friend who didnt have gear, but I also brought my own MMA gloves to use. Lockers and bathroom at the facility were also amazing. You don't need your own lock, and the bathrooms were stocked with a lot nice products to freshen up post class. Hit House really pushed and challenged us - it was a really cool experience to try out their unique Bishop punching bags. A great workout and I loved how I didn't feel like I was pressured to buy more and buy a membership after our class. Tip: if you do the kickboxing & flow class (yoga) grab a towel so you aren't slipping on the fitness mat for the yoga portion of the class.

He was super helpful in getting everyone set up with their punching bags and stayed fully engaged throughout the class. Richard clearly explained the flow of the workout, demonstrated each exercise, and made everything easy to follow. I especially appreciated the one-on-one feedback he gave during class, which really helped me improve and correct my form. Glove rentals are only $5, which is more than reasonable considering the class was complimentary. The facilities are great and include all the essentials, like showers, and even a free laundry machine! Overall, Hit House has truly inspired me to get back into fitness, and I'm excited to stay active, motivated, and disciplined moving forward.

[This review is specifically for their downtown Brooklyn location]…read more This gym does not provide a safe environment for women. In the locker room, there are chairs directly facing the changing area. This invites patrons to sit on the couch, with phones in their face, directly facing members who are changing. Three separate times I have turned around, while unclothed, and seen members using phones that are pointing directly at me (including being on FaceTime). While most members would put their phone when asked, some won't, claiming that photography is not allowed, but phone usage is permitted. To be clear: A person holding a phone up in a locker room creates a reasonable fear of recording, regardless of what they claim to be doing. This is such an egregious violation of privacy, and honestly displays a lack of common sense from management. Further, it should not be the job of members to police one another; it should be the job of management to provide a safe place for changing before and after workouts. Management has so far ignored my messages about this complete lack of respect for privacy.

I visit NYC every so often for business trips, and have always struggled to find a gym I like that supports guest passes. I can happily say my search is finally over -- I'll definitely be coming back to GYM NYC every time I'm visiting the city! They sell 1-week passes for about $170, and day passes for $40. For me, it worked out better to get 4 day passes compared to the 1-week pass, but for those who would be visiting for a week and need to go 5+ sessions, that 1-week pass would be for you. Compared to EQX, the gym is way less crowded (even though it's smaller) and has all the equipment you need! The equipment is modern and plentiful: there are 2 flat bench press setups, one incline bench press, 3 deadlift platforms, and 4 squat racks. For accessory work there's also 3 adjustable flat benches and plenty of dumbbells. I usually go around 7am, which gets pretty crowded at EQX -- but this morning even by 7:30 there were still only a few other people in the gym. Amazing!
