I went to Burn for a much-needed workout shakeup on a free 14-day trial. My sister-in-law works out…read morethere and shed 25 pounds in 3 months! I like the fact that Burn is bodyweight exercise, i.e. calisthenics for the most part, with an occasional dumbell, rope or other non-machine device. It's a 45-minute workout with lots of variety and an encouraging coach. "Group exercise" is generally not my thing... I've always been a loner in the gym--weights, running, etc., but this IS a good program to mix things up a bit. All the days I went, there was only ever one guy in there working out with the girls. And the girls are very supportive. Nice, but probably a little TOO girly for my speed, but great for other women who need a strong support system when trying to get fit. The main downside is that it is SO expensive at, I think, $99/month... maybe even more than that? The only way I'd consider actually joining is if I got a great deal. I think they had a Black Friday deal that I missed out on.

I had a month subscription to this gym! I absolutely loved the workouts which really make you…read moresweat. It got four stars because of the workouts. They lost a star because of one reason. I didn't really care for the male trainer. He tends to pick on certain women about their training clothing. I mean come on, the woman is there to get fit, not to be ridiculed. He's also not very pleasant outside of the class when I went to ask him about prices for a full membership. He made no eye contact with me and kinda brushed me off. Maybe he didn't like me? But the female trainer is fantastic and so sweet! I thanked her on the last day of the month trial that I subscribed to! For those interested, Groupon will have good deals on having a month of these classes. It was a great way to get back into the swing of things after having my second child. I've continued some of the things I've learned at the camp in my current gym routine. I wish prices were a bit lower, though. I can't exactly afford over $100/month. Thanks for getting me on track though!

I've been a member for 4 years and have only missed a handful of classes due to no excuse. I pride myself on that. Show up and get addicted. It's a great group of people to work out with.

I love the heart rate monitor that is given to you to wear each time you go into the gym and your heart rate is put onto the screen with others who wear theirs to see how you are doing! It is color coordinated too- which I enjoy. The music is good and changes songs frequently to keep you focused. You weigh in weekly on Monday to see your progress! There are people of all ages and of all backgrounds at this gym too which is so nice. It is a supportive group of people and a great workout!

Our instructer was awesome, great personality, kept the class fun and interesting. Most of us were beginners but he told us to do what we can, dont try to out do the person next to you. We did so much.. butpees, threw a heavy ball up the wall while doing squats, sit ups, pull ups, pull ups on rings, lunges and more. I loved the flow of the glass although there were moments I had to break, I still kept up! This crissfit gym is hidden but is a great place to work out!

What is this place? I have never heard of it until I stumbled across an ad on Facebook. Initially,…read moreI doubted it because it looked scammish but I went ahead and provided a contact number. The ad stated limited spots so it was a sign that people were signing up and when I clicked on the link, it appeared as if there weren't any left.. However, I was fortunate and received a call back. Again, I was skeptical because FB ads are tricky and that's to the general look of ALL ads I saw on FB. I was contacted a day or so after directly and appointed a time to have a consult. The place was tricky to find but it's tucked away where other warehouses are and sporting facilities. Who knew there was an area back there. Anywho, after consulting and learning about the type of exercise, the time offered, and discussing my goals, I went ahead and signed up. Again, I was very hesitant because I was nervous about group exercises and fearful of appearing unfit or ashamed but I took a leap of faith and said , Yes! Jumping ahead, the people are SO welcoming and the trainers are absolutely supportive and very easy to speak to. Yes, they encouraged me to push hard but it was the kick in the butt I needed. The coaches were never pushy, they were attentive to my limits and personal goals. Lindsay and Sean were who conducted the classes and they both complement each other well in terms of personality and gym environment. Pricing.. yes it can be viewed as expensive but it is not quite different in comparison to the amount you would spend on a personal gym trainer. Now if you're looking for more of a gym such as Crunch or YMCA where you are mainly independent or have a different fitness focus, then you may doubt membership here. This gym is VERY diverse in workouts, uses body exercises, and lifts. Each day offers something different and that is why I absolutely have yet to be bored from it. The workouts are challenging but you are never asked to go beyond your comfortable limits both physically and emotionally. The gym itself is just very fun, cool, and casual. They have a range of equipment from weighted balls to squat racks. If you like the pump, the burn, and sweat I believe you will enjoy the experience. Nutrition advice is offered as well and more independent plans if wished for. The facility has been open for I believe 6 or 7 years now which is a fantastic sign. The vibe is very familyistic and everyone truly is impacting. I would recommend the place to all of my friends and family just to at least give it one day's try. Anywho, I love it!

I was cancelled without warning, notice or cause, with zero explanation, on September 10th. I've…read moreemailed the owners, managers, and co-CEO's of Orangetheory - with zero response. I messaged OTF via Instagram, got a call back, and was told that my studio would reach out to me in 3-5 business days. It's now been 10 business days, and NOT A WORD. Below is the email I sent to David Long, the co-CEO (and copied owners and managers too). I've been denied a copy of my contract (as have other members). Also see other negative reviews specifically mentioning the manager. _______________________________ I've been a fanatical member of OTF since December 2022. I've participated in every challenge, bought every piece of merch, and even won the Transformation Challenge at my studio in 2023. I share it on my social media, go to studios wherever I travel, and in general evangelize the program whenever I can. I've had amazing results and it shows. After a few years of begging, my husband joined. He attended for a month and needed to cancel. He signed a cancel form on 9/1 at the studio ( I was there) without issue. The next day, the SA Sydney called and was nasty, telling Mike that he had to pay regardless and would not be able to use the classes he paid for. I could not believe he had such a bad experience and asked Marilyn Terry, the manager, to call him. Instead of working with him and resolving the issue, she doubled down on what Sydney said, that he had to pay and could not use his classes, and said she would back her staff over customers no matter what. She then disconnected the call without warning. Yesterday I got a text to update my billing info - and I responded with a text that I would do that - and expressed my concerns about how Mike was treated. I'm at work, so I checked my personal email a few hours later...and had an email from Marilyn that my membership was cancelled and that I was not welcome at any Richmond studio. No mention of cause, warning, nothing.... I've attached all of my correspondence so you can see what I said (named in order - 1, 2, 3) - please keep in mind the email was sent AFTER the text I sent - clearly a move meant to penalize me for expressing my opinion. I cannot believe in 2024, a successful, visible business is run by someone who would retaliate against one of their most visible, successful, positive members in this way. You might also want to reach out to other members who have cancelled - many people have had similar interactions with Marilyn.

Excellent group classes!

The classes are 30 or 45 minutes but really pack a punch! Don't be intimidated, the instructors work with you and the small group size means lots of one on one attention that makes it seem like personal training while having the added motivation of a group class. They also offer personal training!

Honestly, I used to have a trainer and we did the same types of workouts and the cost for a 5 days a week in a month is less expensive than one trainer visit- and more fun too!! I lived in Richmond and did it daily for about a year. The workouts rotate throughout about four locations in the Richmond area. No two workouts are the same. The locations change between Maymont park area, Bryan Park, James River area (near 2nd st) and Forest Hill Park. Each day has you focus on a different area of your body. The workouts are challenging, however the instructors offer variations based on your fitness level. Some days may even have a field day vibe. Speaking of fitness level, there are all sorts of people attending workouts, all fitness levels and even people with minor injuries. I mean it when I say there is a way to benefit here. Truly, a motivational workout even for a beginner. I moved out of town and miss these workouts. It isn't just the workouts but the supportive group atmosphere without being pushy or overwhelming. I try to attend when I am back. I lived in Richmond my entire life and was introduced to beautiful areas I never appreciated before while getting into shape. I tell people all the time I get more homesick for NLF than anything else. I think each Monday you can join the group for a free workout to give it a try. You should. Where else can you work in toning arms and shoulders while staring out over the James River, or work on your legs while visiting Maymont Park?

I have weak wrists from years of doing gymnastics, so it's hard for me to do exercises where my full body weight is on my wrist. She is so good now that she just automatically gives me an alternate exercise when we have heavy wrist weight activities! I regularly go to CO2Fit Xpress, Surf, and Running Group. I've also gone to Pound and BootCamp. I have no complaints about any of them!
