Discovered this gem via ClassPass and decided to give it a try! Riley taught our mat Pilates class in a beautiful, airy, and welcoming studio space. The vibes were great, the playlist was awesome, and the workout was even better! I do lots of barre and yoga, so I figured this would be in a similar vein, but I was so wrong. I was sore (in a good way!) in muscles I didn't know I had! Riley's teaching style was super approachable and she gave lots of options for modifications to accommodate any injuries or discomfort. Honestly, I liked my experience here so much that I'm thinking about getting ClassPass just to add The Cube into my regular rotation. read more

Really enjoyed a difficult but fun Barre Chisel class! I believe the instructor was Anna. The parking is a little strange being behind the building I'd recommend entering through the front (I accidentally came in via the back door and therefore was a bit confused where to check in and the board has all the info you need)! Great class and loved the 90s playlist - lots of energy and worked all aspects of the body in one go. I cannot speak the the price of classes as I was introduced to the studio via class pass but it was a great experience and I'd love to drop in occasionally read more

I love Fitness at The Cube! The instructors, Anna and Gaby, have great energy and are knowledgeable and kind. Every class that I have tried is excellent (eg, Trampoline, TRX, Pilates, circuit training), and Gaby's Zumba classes are the best in the area! So glad to have this studio and community in my life! read more

I truly couldn't love The Cube more. Such a warm, welcoming, happy space. Zumba class is always a mood-booster! And for an intense workout, Zumba toning, TRX, and tramp can't be beat (my personal faves). So lucky to have this wonderful place, and instructors, in our area. read more

Fitness at the cube is an inviting place to work out. The small class-size allows for individual attention to ensure proper technique and body alignment. I feel confident I'm getting the most out of my workout while protecting my body from injury. I enjoy taking several classes a week with a variety of instructors. Each has their own style while providing a fun and motivating class. I've definitely gotten stronger and more flexible since starting at Fitness at the Cube and I feel I will continue to progress in my overall fitness. read more

I was really bummed when Studio East 54 in Chapel Hill closed as they were one of my favorite gyms in the area. However, two thirds of the East 54 crew have now opened Fitness at the Cube in Durham! Located close to Duke in between Chapel Hill and downtown Durham, the name Fitness at the Cube very succinctly sums up the outside of the studio. It is a literally a cube next to Taqueria La Vaquita. There's a few parking spaces outside of the building and then a gravel lot next door. The downstairs of the building includes the group exercise room (a bit smaller than their old space but can hold 15-20 people depending on the set up) and the upstairs houses a beautiful pilates studio perfect for private and small group classes. Both floors have bathrooms with showers. They just opened this past weekend so they are still getting set up (mirrors and more ballet barres are supposed to arrive in the coming weeks) but the space has great potential for being a beautiful boutique studio. The real gem of Fitness at the Cube are the two owners, Gabby and Anna. Both of them are amazing fitness professionals and also really welcoming and friendly people. The studio offers pilates, barre, zumba, and TRX classes (Gabby teaches zumba and TRX and Anna teaches pilates and barre). I absolutely love Gabby's zumba classes! She makes every workout so much fun and you cannot help but leave class feeling better than when you walked in. I also like that they offer different kinds of zumba classes (toning which uses weighted maracas with dance and zumba strong which is basically a HIT class set to fun music) so you never get bored. Anna's classes are a great compliment to the zumba and Anna is super motivating and supportive. One of my favorite things about this studio is that it appeals to a range of students-- classes are diverse with a variety of ages and fitness levels. If you are looking for a place to have fun and get in shape then definitely check out Fitness at the Cube. Also, there is a drop-in childcare place across the street which is very helpful for moms. I hope that Fitness at the Cube will continue to expand their schedule with more times and offerings because I think they are going to be very popular! read more

Love to work out here (and I did not like to exercise before). Gaby is the best Zumba instructor. She makes classes fun. Anna is a great Pilates and barre instructor. You feel the burn in a good way. If you are looking for a fun, welcoming environment to move and burn some calories, this is the place. Highly recommend! read more

Fantastic, fun classes that will kick your butt. A beautiful facility. But it's the instructors at this studio that really set them apart. Gaby is an energetic, talented dancer who will always make you smile AND sweat in her zumba classes. Her suspension training classes (TRX) are really challenging as well. Anna is a phenomenal Pilates and barre instructor who will always get you a good workout with a smile on your face. I cannot recommend this place enough! read more

I love the classes at Fitness at The Cube and highly recommend them. My favorites are the Barre class with Anna and the Zumba class with Gaby. These two co-owners are so welcoming and inspiring to be around, and they create an environment where everyone can be successful. Their classes are challenging and fun, and I appreciate the care they take to ensure proper form to avoid injury and get the maximum benefit from every movement. This morning I took the Barre class with Kathy, and it was fantastic as well. Taking classes at Fitness at The Cube is one of my favorite ways to care for myself and feel good. read more

Class A place! Instructors are so caring and know so much about making a class safe but fun. The barre brunch they have some Sundays is a great way to mingle with others after a 90 minute barre class. Yes 90 minutes!!!! read more

This studio is the best. Highly experienced teachers who are dedicated to your needs and injury prevention plus a variety of classes to fit all schedules. The atmosphere is comfortable and the patrons are friendly. The classes are fun as well as challenging. Costs are highly competitive, frequently lower than competitors. If you exercise a lot, their unlimited package can't be beat. Come and you will feel like part of a family. read more

I never thought I was a group exercise person until I came to "the Cube". Every class is challenging and fun. The classes focus on Zumba, Barre, TRX and Pilates. Gabby and Anna, the owners teach most of the classes but this business is growing and new instructors are coming on board to offer even more great classes. The owners set the tone though, and it is an inclusive and supportive environment. If you are a super buff gym rat that needs a change of pace or just trying to get moving again after too long a lay off you will love working out here. The place is supper clean and the pricing is more than fair, especially if you purchase a package. read more

Anna & Gaby are fun, friendly and focused! Great workouts in a great environment. They challenge and encourage you and make sure your form is correct. Fun and welcoming! read more
