You can rent shoes for $2 cash, or a little more if you pay with card. Bikes are assigned in advance, but you can change it at front desk. Now onto the class! Studio is dim lit - which is great because you don't really have to worry about anyone but yourself. Music is loud and bumpin'. The instructors are all super friendly as well and give great cues. Rides are rhythm based - so you want to try and stay on beat to maximize the workout! The best is during pushes - the mirrored wall lights up club style! Workout is well balanced with flat roads and hills, there's always a solo song and an arms workout song! I always end up sweat- I mean sparkling after class :) My favorite part of the entire Zoom experience however, is once class is over, there is an absolutely splendid tiny cold wet towel. Let me tell you, after a hard an sweaty workout, this small treat is absolutely godsend. To top it all off, there is a minty touch to the towel - no doubt a product of essential oils. Even though it's a small touch, it is HIGHLY appreciated and really refreshes! Overall, Zoom is a wonderful studio! I go via classpass, but they have student specials! Check it out!

The trainers are amazing and offer support throughout the sessions and offer weekly focus meetings (also free) to help with your progress. I can't get enough this place. I highly recommend them.

I originally tried Burn Boot Camp a month after it arrived in the area, October 2019, so I've been obsessed with returning ever since. I recently signed up for their new member 4 week Ignite Your Life and I have no regrets. The music is up beat and the workout is always different, yet challenging. I love that its full body - you're able to get in your cardio and weight training all in one - as I've always been the one in the gym weight training or taking a conditioning class at the gym which is now made so much easier. The trainers are all super friendly, helpful, and encourage you (in a non-pushy manner) to push to your max. Burn Boot Camp is the ultimate package for a gym!

The atmosphere is laid-back and community-oriented, with fantastic support from coaches to members. Everyone is there to improve themselves, but they value the camaraderie and don't want to go it alone. At Solidarity, it feels like a team effort. I might be one of the older members, but the support I receive from everyone is truly amazing and keeps me motivated. The workouts are challenging, but they're also tailored to each individual, which is incredible. I'm surrounded by incredibly talented athletes, and they're all eager to share their insights or lend a hand when you're at the brink of giving up. I've been a member of the gym for about five years, and I can't imagine my life without Solidarity and its members.

The yoga is just amazing because now it stretches everything out and you get a cool down. It's such an all-around exercise and very balanced. One of the other things I really like about this is even though you're in a class, you workout at your pace and at your endurance level. You're not trying to keep up with the class you're trying to work your own body at your pace. Excellent work out! I highly recommend this to everyone!!

He is the laziest employee they have. He acts like he is going out of his way to answer a question. All he wants to do is click on membership cards and stand there. I also don't like they allow kids in there. Some are running around screaming on the track and could knock over someone that is in rehab from a stroke. Kids do not belong in there using the equipment and rarely are the parents around. Make a gym for kids if you want them in there, otherwise have them go to the Kid's Zone.

Glad we got a membership here (although generally more expensive than I normally would pay for a gym membership) and I do recommend the family rate since it's the most cost effective. Enjoy your workouts!

As a beginner yogi, I am always wanting feedback on my form, and I appreciated that the instructors would stay after and answer any questions I had and also give me additional feedback. However, my latest experience after the 30 day trial wasn't the best, and I don't think I'll be returning. I attended my first aerial level 2 class, and I felt like a burden the entire time. It appeared that everyone was already well bonded--which was fine, but there wasn't much explanation behind any of the poses, and it was expected that I know poses that were completely foreign coming from level one. This was really discouraging, and I know I have a lot of room for growth in my practice, but I'd rather do it in a space where I feel comfortable with where I am in my practice.

Kind of like a cycling class but on a treadmill, with intervals timed to different songs and a motivating instructor coaching you along the way. The studio is divided into two parts. There's a large area with mats on the ground for yoga and circuit training, and another room with about ten treadmills, half Woodway and half more of your standard design. They have six different classes. Some incorporate more weights and circuit training, some involve yoga, and some are focused simply on running. I was happy they had a 6:00 am class for those that like to get their workout done early! I could see myself becoming a member if I lived in Cville or Richmond where the other studio is. Besides the classes, the group likes to get together outside of the studio. The day I went was Global Running Day and they were reuniting later at a brewery for a run outdoors and some drinks. Count me in!
