The circuit class had six stations so after every change, I forgot what the exercise was but she was there to quickly run through it with me. She was also very encouraging. At the end of the class she mentioned of a competition day that was open to everyone. The space has nothing but a water fountain, lockers, bathroom, sanitizer and cleaning wipes for the machine, no towels, shower or amenities. I enjoy Metcon (5min exercise - 1min rest) and the variety of it all. The class went quickly and id definitely do the class again. It was my first time working out in a while and i could keep up. Would give it 5 stars but lack of amenities is a big bummer.

The feeling of belonging, especially in NYC, when you see the same people in class, and the front desk staff and instructors know you by name, is invaluable. I've gotten stronger thanks to Session, and found a great community. I couldn't recommend it enough!

I'm a huge fan of F45 Flatiron. Having done F45 in a variety of locations in TX and CA, I can say…read moreF45 Flatiron stands out for two main reasons: (1) Starts on time, everytime! At other F45s I've been to, people trudge in late and at different times. It can be distracting and disruptive. (2) Awesome instruction. I'm always getting feedback on form, and the instructors are always engaged. I appreciate the attention to detail, it's the only way I can improve. I go here almost everyday - highly recommend for anyone that's looking to burn fat, build muscle, and do it efficiently.

As a parishioner of St. Michael's, I often would hear the music at the 10:30 am mass and I wonder what it was. Time later, I saw an ad for F45 and I was like, Why not? I live close by. I followed the sign and I felt I was going to a Speakeasy. I am glad a good samaritan was right behind me and guided me through the basement area and long corridor. I just left their Tokyo class. I truly dont know why they call it Tokyo and kudos to the coaches - Jackie and Hernan! AMAZING. I told them my injuries and they provided modifications and suggestions amidst a very packed 9:30 am sunday class. Management - Please give them a raise!! As a former fitness pro, I am amazed with their high level of professionalism and I would come back again.

I started training at Shape Fitness for Women a few months ago and couldn't be happier with my…read moreexperience. My trainer, Paola, has been absolutely amazing from day one -- she's knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely cares about helping her clients succeed. What stood out most to me was how comfortable and supported I felt during every session. Paola has this incredible way of pushing you just enough to challenge yourself, without ever making you feel overwhelmed or out of place. Each workout was different and thoughtfully planned, keeping things both fun and engaging. No two sessions were the same -- one day we'd focus on strength and toning, and the next, core stability or endurance. Beyond her expertise, Paola's warm personality really sets the tone. She's encouraging, professional, and always explains proper form so you know exactly what you're doing (and why). I've learned so much about fitness and confidence in my own body through her guidance. The gym itself is clean, welcoming, and designed with women's comfort in mind -- it feels like a safe, positive environment to focus on your goals.

I have always "worked out" from classes to trainers,…read morePilates, Yoga, running etc. I saw mediocre results. Three years ago, my good friend introduced me to Joel and I have been training with him ever since. "Excellent Trainer" doesn't do Joel justice. He is way more than just a great trainer - he is a fitness guru, motivational coach, and nutritional expert all in one. He personalizes my workout regimes to meet my goals and body type, and is genuinely invested in my journey to achieving maximum fitness. He is reliable, consistent, and inspiring - so much so, that I am willing to go to the financial district at 6am weekly to see him (despite living and working taxi rides away and being a night person! ) I highly recommend Joel for anyone looking to improve their overall well being, fitness and/or outlook on life!

I changed my goals a bit and Joel was very receptive to lighten our workouts in a way that worked for me. I had chronic problems with my lower back and Joel was very cautious to exercise to strengthen it without causing any damage. I can say that my back NEVER hurts any more!!! It's amazing!! Joel changed our workouts depending on my feedback and we found something that increased my endurance, strength and felt great during and after the workout. He is the kindest, most patient, supportive and entertaining trainer I have worked with!!

It was my first HYROX class, and her confident, clear guidance immediately put me at ease (I was nervous at first!), especially as she walked us through equipment I'd never used before. She created an energized, supportive environment that made it easy to connect with others, particularly when we broke into smaller groups. Nicolette strikes the perfect balance between being tough and supportive, encouraging you to trust your body while ensuring you feel safe throughout the class. I also appreciate the clean showers and that I could get a protein shake from their fridge on my way out, that goes a long way!!

(I was in my happy hour era don't judge lol) I swore the idea off saying I don't have what it takes and off we went. Here I am... a decade later and eating my words, anxiously waiting for each physically challenging session. Every day is unexpected and almost entirely different from the last. Never boring and hitting every part of my body. My legs are in poor health and he's extremely attentive to it. He pushes me to do better, work harder, stay focused. He truly cares about the direction of your fitness and all around health and never once makes you feel like you're just an in and out client. He makes me want to do better and be better. Training has turned my life around. Ahmed is a distinguished trainer and humble gentleman. If you're ready to get in the best shape of your life and build your strength both mentally and physically, Go to Pushlab see Ahmed, and thank me later.
