I spent a year or longer after moving to Pittsburgh attending classes in many different gyms around the city. I've found other establishments that I enjoy and get great work outs in and click with the coaches but no one compares to the service received at Panthro from Chris and his team. Chris is passionate and knowledgeable in what he does with clients. Not only have I seen some of the best results in my body but feel great and know I'm at the strongest I've been. No doubt I'm going into 30 in the best shape of my life. Chris frequently checks in and remembers problem areas or things I have been working on. If I'm having trouble with an area, he is quick to suggest and demonstrate specific stretches and adjust any of the days work out to ensure the best and most effective experience. Seriously cannot recommend this place enough!! I have 2-3 gyms on my list that I love in Pittsburgh but hands down, Panthro is it! It's small, intimate and such a welcoming gym. I've taken classes with Chris and Casey but trust that Chris brings the best coaches to his team!

Panthro is in a class of its own. Offering bootcamp-style…read moreclasses as well as strength training focused classes gives me the variety I want in my fitness. Class experience: Whether strength or bootcamp, every class feels new, thoughtful, and carefully designed to work my body. The trainers are always very helpful in providing modifications to exercises to accommodate injuries. The trainers also are helpful in providing feedback on form and motivation. For me, it feels like I have my own personal trainer for a fraction of the price. Community: Not only are the trainers amazing at Panthro, but the people who go to Panthro are as well. When you go to Panthro, you also join a friendly and encouraging community. Results: My body is noticeably different now from when I started. I am stronger and have better muscle definition--receiving multiple compliments from friends and family. The result I appreciate the most is a significant reduction in injuries and recovery times. Pulling a muscle in my back at home? Nope Fatigued after a vigorous day of yard work or helping someone move? Nada. My main motivation for going to the gym is to care for my body and enable me to live my best life--Panthro certainly provides that value for me.

I joined for another month since I had the time off. In the seven weeks that I've been there I have lost weight and body fat while definitely gaining muscle mass and I'm thrilled with the results. Again, the trainers have been fantastic. Thanks so much to Anthony, Matt, Kate, Dylan and Aaron for all your help and making working out fun!

Ryan's NASM certification means he has acquired the knowledge and the skill to tailor an approach to address your specific fitness needs in both exercise and nutrition. Ryan conducts himself in a professional manner, has an engaging personality, and a great sense of humor. He's 100% focused on you during sessions and is able to motivate without being overbearing. He will constantly exceed your expectations for a fitness trainer because he genuinely cares about your well-being and he honestly wants you to succeed. When the training session is over, he's still thinking about you. Expect emails or texts between sessions to keep you on track. How do I know all of this? Last November, I weighed 300 lbs and was lost trying to lose weight on my own. I started with Ryan and a year later I am at 235 lbs and continuing to lose weight. I couldn't have done it without him.

They welcome you, guide you, and encourage you to relax, try your best, and more importantly have a good time! The SUP classes are held at North Park Lake, an excellent setting with calm water. Classes are suitable for all skill levels. My friend and I attended SUP Yoga with no yoga experience and only having tried SUP once before. The class-goers are friendly and participate with varying experience/skill levels. They offer other classes like 'SUP and SIP' - another excellent experience that includes paddle boarding, wine, and charcuterie - they also have classes at North Park Pool that vary in exercise intensity. Registration and payment take place online and work very smoothly. Specific directions are provided before class and the instructors are available via phone should you lose your way. Classes are typically 1-2hrs and you can bring your own board or use theirs. They keep your phone or keys in a safe location during class. They also take lots of great photos during class and post them to their Facebook account. I HIGHLY recommend FluidMotion Pgh classes to anyone and will continue to attend them myself!

I contacted the owner Melissa Lucciola and communicated directly with her. She stated her policy was to offer no refund --only credit, or an upgrade for me to pay an extra $18 for the gear. Ok this event is 5 weeks away, and I only just made the finding that i was misinformed on the MindBody app. as to the inclusion of the gear. It boggles my mind why Melissa would choose to take a hard line with me insisting that it read BYOB and quite frankly arguing with me on it, well it not did state BYOB. It was a honest mistake. The information was unclear on the MindBody app. I told Melissa I respectfully disagree with her. I verified my information re-reading it 3 times relaying back how the app did not state that the gear was not in fact included int he $20 fee. Miss Lucciola refused to refund my paid fee of $20. Be aware this owner/operator had delivered argumentative, poor customer service to me.

Gyms can be intimidating and full of body shame if you don't fit a certain standard. Tedesco is none of those things. The first time I walked in for a 5 am boot camp class I was greeted with enthusiasm. It has been over ten years since I've done anything like it, so I was nervous and also realistic about my abilities. The coach demonstrated every activity and also worked with me through modifications where I needed them. What was also refreshing was seeing all sorts of body types in the class. This is definitely a place that welcomes and embraces everyone who walks in the door. They offer fitness boot camp, kickboxing and strength boot camp classes along with open gym time. I've attended all of them and really enjoyed every one. What's great is that they are something different every day. Each day focuses on a different muscle but the order and which activity changes. They also regularly host challenges with different themes. For example, I'm currently in the "Little Black Dress" challenge where in addition to the workouts, we get meal plans and nutrition consults. You can also just come to the gym to do your own workout. I never thought I'd be someone who looked forward to 5 am workouts, but Tedesco converted me. This place is amazing, so if you are out east and looking for a gym, definitely check them out. You won't regret it.
