This was my first time at this F45 location, second time attending a Mont Blanc Monday workout…read more However, I really liked this studio much more than the first one I visited. I liked that there was alot of natural light coming in from the window. Upon walking in, I was greeted by the owner Scott who cracked lots of jokes about my 64oz water bottle (it's a huge bottle!) I was acquainted with the studio by Scott and he gave me the run down of membership at the end. Him and the instructor Jay were super great at motivating and modifying workouts and posture throughout the session. There seemed to be a great community here -- everyone was so nice! The place was also really clean and well maintained. Bring your own water bottle 64oz or not -- they have a water station. They also provide microfiber towels and disinfectant spray so you can clean as you go. Additionally parking is free in Alexandria on the weekdays except 4-7pm and F45 has their own dedicated parking space. I was on the fence about F45 but I think after this visit I'm going to join in their 45 day challenge starting 2/5/24! It's a sweaty, fun time here that really makes you feel in shape!

I like how the coaches make sure form is correct, people push themselves, and workout safely. The workouts are never boring since they are different everyday.

I tried this workout class in Old Town Alexandria because I love exploring new studios, and there…read morewere some highlights! The music selection was great (think upbeat, fun, and kept you moving), and the coach was genuinely warm and welcoming when I walked in. If you're looking to switch up your routine or try something different, it definitely checks that box. That said, a few things didn't quite land for me. The space is very small and boutique, which is cozy in one sense, but also felt a bit cramped once the class started. I've been Olympic lifting for about two years now, and I noticed one person struggling with their front rack squat form. I didn't feel comfortable stepping in as a newcomer, and it was tough watching the coach not address or correct it. Form matters for safety, especially when we're working under load, so that was a concern for me. Also, the class flow was guided by a single small screen with a timer, and the alert to switch stations was super faint. I found myself constantly glancing around to make sure I wasn't missing transitions because I couldn't really hear the cue. Overall, I loved the idea of the class and the friendliness of the coach, but I would have appreciated more coaching engagement, motivation, and attention to form, especially given the style of training. I think with a bit more hands-on guidance and clearer structure, this class could be a really great experience.

I was a member here for about 4 years or so, off and on. I had an unlimited membership at one point…read moreso throughout the duration of my membership, I hit well over 300 classes. It can be fun because it is motivating to exercise as part of a group fitness class. The workout itself was mostly good, but after a while classes became repetitive-- this was a fault of corporate bc that's who creates the workouts. The reason I ultimately left was because of the poor music selections at this studio. I know that every member is different and has different music tastes, but coaches should be more receptive to requests and suggestions. Music is my biggest motivation to exercise, so once I started hearing Eminem and Irish fight songs a little too often, I had to dip! Lol it was like the instructors were totally unaware of any current musicians with uptempo music (like Beyoncé, Ariana Grande, Doja Cat, etc.) or even any throwback artists (like Missy Elliot, Britney Spears, etc.).

We stayed in Downtown Alexandria and the gym was around 15 mins away (walking). Such a great cute little women's studio. We did the Bosu class and it kicked our butts. The instructor made sure we had the right form and led a fast paced high intensity class. Would definitely recommend! Please note - there's only one bathroom for the studio which includes a shower.

This was such a loaded experience. As someone who frequents many small studios like this in various…read moreparts of the DMV, especially the V, I definitely have my likes and dislikes. Likes: Anna-Maria, the instructor, was very sweet. She was warm and welcoming, very encouraging throughout the workout, and had an interesting playlist. It was also a pretty good workout with the core/upper body sections being better than others. Format: Surge Strength. It was very much a "lift to the music" while bringing in cardio elements workout. I like having music blaring but being on beat (or striving to be) annoys me because you're pressured to break form and not move meaningfully. I probably looked crazy, but I was seconds behind the other people in class because I wanted to actually lift, not swing my arms around. Also, some of the moves (mostly lower body), when moving that quickly, just don't target the areas I want to strengthen meaningfully. For some moves, I'd opt for slower, more controlled, classic moves so I could get it right. We were using "light to heavy" dumbbells - I think the highest is 15 pounds. Also, the "stop, grab your mat, unfold, and do floor work for a couple minutes" thing was kind of disorienting at times. Facilities/equipment: this is my second biggest gripe. While it looked mostly visibly clean, the floors were dirty AF, covered in stringy hairs. Ew. During the floor sections, I could see hair and other debris on the floor and it would even get on me if any part of me even slightly came off the mat, or hairs would be hanging from my weights when I picked them up.yuckkk. Also, the mats were funky. Very clear that they rely on folks doing the one-wipe swipe after sweaty workouts for cleaning and that's gross. They don't have a water cooler or even a cool Flow Water station or anything - they have two water fountains that are relatively low pressure. And they're connected, so only one works at a time. And they looked a little dusty. Vibe: It's a no for me, dawg. Outside of Anna-Maria, there was like NO diversity in the room (maybe one Asian woman in the front) which feels VERY WEIRD when the playlist is VERY Black with a little Brown sprinkled in. On top of that, the women in there were stuck up and some were, frankly, obnoxious. I got multiple stares (Yes, I'm Black! OMG lol) and when I was attempting to fill my water at the ratchet fountain, before I knew they were connected, this one white studio member, in such a condescending way, was like, "hi, yeah, they're actually connected, so..." Girl, bye. Oh, that brings me to another point: It was my first time at that location. I checked in and received no orientation/guidance from the girl at the front desk. I ended up entering the studio room and, thankfully, Anna-Maria was able to help me get set up. I think the girl at the front desk heard me receiving instructions and ran in just as the workout was about to start and apologized for not introducing me to things. But it was very much an afterthought and if I was someone who was super anxious or thrown off by stuff like that, I would've left. Oh, and it's def the type of place where the same people show up for the same classes (or multiple) regularly. To be honest, I disliked the vibe so much initially, I considered leaving like five minutes into the workout. But a player has goals, so I stayed. It seemed pretty clear who this space is intended for. And I've pretty much NEVER felt that way before, even when working out in tiny studios in places like Del Ray and Loudoun. I was less uncomfy towards the end, but initial impression plus hair: ew. You'll get a cute workout in but this vibe? Not for me.

But these older adults be out here putting in work! Classes: I took a Bodypump class. If you've taken it once, you've taken it. Buttt I still enjoyed the class as a whole. Gym itself: okayyy, this gym is deffffff dated. It's on the smaller side, but I haven't been to the floor - only the class areas and locker room. The locker rooms are kind of gross. They smelled like chlorinated sewage and are just kinda grimy. Lots of hair (gag) and dirty lockers. Defffff bring your shower shoes. Showers have body wash/shampoo and conditioner. I also saw lotion and blow dryers and multiple scales. It's not my favorite place but I'll be back for some classes because I like OneLife's class offerings.

OneLife Old Town Alexandria update January 2026…read more Looking back to July 2025 when I first reviewed Onelife Fitness - Old Town Alexandria, VA, things have only deteriorated. Apparently corporate management determined not to allow any additional time between the end of the 11 a.m. Tuesday and Thursday Tai Chi classes and the noon start of Functional Lab (on Tuesdays) and BodyPump (on Thursdays). As a result, participants in the Tai Chi classes are still in the room at 4 minutes to noon, because management has elected not to change the schedule to permit more time in between these classes. Today the Group Fitness Director was personally present before the start of the noon Functional Lab class, and deflected concerns raised by participants waiting to get set up for the noon Functional Lab. She dismissed those concerns: she imagined, hypothetically, that participants in the Tai Chi classes would reject the schedule change, saying that if the 11 a.m. class ran from 11 to 11:50 instead of 11 to 11:55 a.m., it would appear that this was a "Tai Chi Lite" class. That hypothetical seems to ignore reality; it also permits continuing disrespect shown by the Tai Chi instructor toward both her peer instructors and participants in the noon classes. As the Fitness Director personally witnessed today, the Tai Chi instructor was still holding class at 11:56 a.m., disregarding the schedule. Whether this approach is due to the Tai Chi instructor's deliberate disrespect of the incoming class (and the respective instructors) or simply her inattention to the time, management has yet to effectively address this problem.
