First, basic amenities have been consistently unavailable - lockers are broken, so you're forced to carry your belongings around, and the salt room has reportedly been out of order for months. I initially had a good facial, which is why I gave this place a chance. However, I was aggressively pushed into signing up for a membership, which I now regret. Since March 19th, I've been trying to cancel that membership due to ongoing disappointment. I completed and returned the required cancellation form, and since then I've: -Sent four emails -Called and left voicemails -Spoken to staff who promised a callback (which never happened) -Visited in person, only to be dismissed and told someone would follow up It's now been nearly a week since my last visit, and I still have received zero confirmation that my membership has been canceled. At this point, the lack of communication and follow-through is unacceptable. I strongly recommend thinking twice before signing up for a membership here.

It is an excellent low intensity strength work out that is challenging, but not over-taxing on the body. The classes are never the same and each instructor brings their own energy and style. Attending classes 3 times per week is the ideal and real results can be achieved very quickly. Highly recommend!

Our instructor executed the class flawlessly, was audible the whole class, engaged with us throughout the class, and she seemed to be enjoying herself the whole time too! If you're looking for a workout that doesn't feel like a workout, this is it! I came with a friend and would love to bring other friends too! The building is old but the space feels great.

Really disappointing experience here. Instructors are sub par, though Sunday restore class was ok…read more Front desk staff could not be any less interested in you - as a new student no tour, no friendly hellos, no instructions. Here is why I won't be going back to the studio - it was raining when I walked in, put my umbrella in the yoga mat bag, then shoes in shoe cubby then coat in top. Told front desk lady (who again could not be any less interested). Walked out of the class and some member moved everything to the other cubby zone - THIS UNACCEPTABLE! No one told me, no one stopped her. Why is someone touching my stuff and making a decision on where to move thing, when I specifically told front desk lady (who said nothing) that's that's where my stuff will be as otherwise I will likely forget the umbrella (that's why I put it in the yoga mat bag). No one asked for permission this other lady attending the class just made a decision to move without asking without announcing. I was asking where my stuff is when I walked out of the class, front desk lady had no idea. Again completely unacceptable - no one touches someone else's stuff without announcement or permission to do so! Especially post covid!

Only annoyance is the bathroom is down a hallway around the back of the studio, it's a bit weird. Hand sanitizer pumps in the studio would be helpful. They make you take shoes off in the foyer, which is a tad annoying but does keep the place nice and clean. Water cooler to fill bottles. Staff is really sweet. The mom and baby classes are excellent - there's yoga on Tuesdays and barre on Thursdays and the instructors are terrific. Very relaxed classes, no big deal if baby cries or you need to nurse, etc. They also have special classes and series regularly, which is nice. Very accessible on the 92 or 93 bus line (runs downtown - Haymarket to financial district - to/from Charlestown). Not the cheapest - $20 for a drop-in. But I think it's worth it.

Everyone does their part to keep the equipment clean which is easy due to the supplies left out by the staff. I emailed the manager of the gym with a question before joining and he was quick to respond and answered everything. I have never had to wait for equipment due to the abundance of treadmills, bikes and weights. Getting to the gym can be hard! Beacon Hill Athletic Club makes it easier.

I wish I found Everybody Fights FiDi sooner when I moved to Boston !…read more Everybody Fights gets you in/out for a HITT workout. At the beginning of each class, the instructors encourage anyone new to the gym or to them to introduce themselves to the instructors who will explain what is about to happen. Everybody Fights promotes its community atmosphere, and I have felt that since my first class. One instructor had come up to me after my second class with her and not only told me I had done a great job in class but also remembered my name ! In comparison to other gyms in the area, I like I can take unlimited classes for $159 (in comparison to others who offered only 8-class pass for +$200). The FiDi location does have towels, showers, lockers included. I mostly go after work to Everybody Fights, but will travel from Allston if I want a weekend workout and find the gym worth it to travel that distance.

As a disclaimer, I didn't do any boxing but went for EBF's ROAD class, which is treadmill + various…read morestrength moves. Get ready for the inevitable comparison to Barry's, the benchmark I use for any class that combines those two things. Where EBF is better: --I really appreciated the smaller class format where it's only a few students (less than 10) and the instructor. Relatedly, the other people taking the class were very nice and there was more of a community feel than the vibe in Barry's where you basically keep your head down and do the workout. --The area with the treadmills had so much natural light and a view of the street, whereas the Barry's red room is dark and can get claustrophobic if you're myopic like me and can't always see where the treadmill edge in front of your feet ends. --Not only did the instructor demo each move, but if you forgot, you could always look up at the screen to see the moves listed. --Really liked the quick warm-up before the running started. Where Barry's is better: --The treadmills at EBF were on the older end and took some time to get up/down to speed. Now that Barry's has upgraded to new Woodways, I could feel the difference. --The programming at Barry's for the strength component was a lot more varied - in the ROAD class, we only did 2-3 ab moves (and each were super short) and six strength moves (including a bear crawl on the treadmill that had me legit gasping). I'm the sort of person who prefers quantity but if you prefer doing the same moves in multiple sets, go with EBF. --The instructor's cue-ing could have been clearer. For most of the treadmill intervals, we were told how long each was but I love a 5-4-3-2-1 countdown and there were moments where I had no idea how long was left without sneaking a peek at the timer on the screen. I also don't think the interval where we were all-out sprinting and then jumping on the rails is safe when you have people side-by-side on the treadmills. Overall I'd stick with Barry's but I'd give the boxing classes at EBF a try.

Totally full of themselves thinking they can charge ridiculous prices for a gym and personal…read moretraining. Wanted to charge me $1260 more than a friend of mine that signed up two months earlier. That is per year! All told they wanted to charge $3780 per year when my friend pays $2520 per year. On top of that they wanted to charge me $8160 for 48 training sessions which is $170/hr. I would have more than likely paid for the trainers because they are known for this, but when they cannot give you a similar rate to what others are paying because they think you have the money is ridiculous. Especially when you are prepared to spend $8160 on just the PT. All told that is $11940 for 16 weeks of PT and one year at the gym. That is a lot of money for anyone to put down. With this amount of money I was able to get two weeks of health spa vacations in La Jolla, CA and I am talking to several independent trainers that have made names for themselves in the area and will get 16 weeks from them. It took me a bit to find out who is who and who the best PT trainers are in the area. Certainly not at Equinox since the trainer they were going to assign me too you cannot find any information about them. So for me I am now spending ... $280 at Planet Fitness for Black Card $4320 for 48 PT session, plus 3 more for free $6400 for two weeks at an all-inclusive health resort in CA $560 for round trip tickets Total all together is $11560 which is $380 less and much more enjoyable than Equinox. Let's check the checklist. 1) Year long gym membership with access to every gym at Planet Fitness has around the world 2) 16 weeks, 3 days a week of PT training with a top trainer 3) 2 weeks at a health spa resort 4) Oh yeah, traveling to California On a related note, I was a member of this gym years ago. They played funny games with me where they allowed people that live more than a certain distance away to get out of their contract with no problems. I was well beyond that distance. Instead, they changed my address to their location at 225 Franklin Street and tried to tell me I was not able to get out of the gym membership because I lived at the same building as the gym. I had to report them to the attorney general to get out of the membership. I would not have gone back if it hadn't been so many years and my business partner and life coach recommended that I go for the PT. Just goes to show that a leopard cannot change their spots. Avoid this gym! There are better gyms out there.

The facility is very large, but has tight parking. It is located behind downtown Malden. The staff throughout the facility all seem very nice and always try to be helpful.
