Recently got to try out F45 for the first time after years of eyeing this gym... and let me just…read moresay... it was well worth the wait! So I recently started a free 2 week trial with Class Pass and saw F45 as one of the gyms available to try out... so I decided to stop by the Lake Nona location for a quick workout. This F45 is located within a strip mall and had a decent amount of parking available around the gym. Upon entering, I was greeted almost immediately and checked in. This spot is pretty spacious and very well lit. The gym is broken up into separate stations with each station having a clear view of the tv which displays the workout needing to be completed. The trainers Leo and Leah were fantastic! They definitely helped with putting me at ease... since it was my first class and all. They did a quick demo of each workout and they also placed me in the same stations as one of the regulars so that they could help me if needed, which I truly appreciated. Overall, I really enjoyed F45! I like the fact that it's a 45 min session each time...and you truly feel accomplished by the end of the work out. I will definitely be back soon to try the other classes!

I was not aware that I had signed up for one of the "tougher" classes, but I completed the class…read moreand can still breathe and am alive enough to type this review. I attended a 3-peat class involving 3 repeats of 10 stations that involved a variety of movements and equipment. The high intensity intervals really work your entire body and get your heart pumping at its limit. Lindsey and Nyna were amazing coaches, and since it was my first time, they provided plenty of encouragement and suggestions for alternative ways to do the activities. It was definitely a challenge, especially for someone like me who only runs and has no arm strength. But I left in a bright mood (from all the endorphins and adrenaline) and knowing I'd become stronger. Apparently the class I took only happens around once a month. They usually have cardio classes Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and weights on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. The facility and equipment were very clean and finding parking was easy. The pricing is not pretty but is as expected for many serious gyms in Lake Nona. It's $65 for two classes every 2 weeks or $180 every 2 weeks for unlimited classes.

Christen was phenomenal and paid attention to everyone even though it was 6:15am on a Monday! She emphasized form, provided modified exercises, and also shared her experience on training as a runner. The class was a mix of resistance training and endurance with 3 main stations of rowing, weights, and treadmills. The equipment and weights were all very clean and worked well, especially the treadmills which were amazingly smooth to run on and easy on my knees. They also give everyone a neat arm band technology during the class that provides detailed health information. I found the info to be helpful to look at both during and after the class (they emailed it to me) to gauge my level of exertion. The only thing stopping me from immediately starting a membership is the price--$180 per month which at least includes unlimited classes. They also have a $120/month option of 8 classes a month. Keep in mind if you try out the first class, they require you to arrive at least 15 minutes beforehand to familiarize yourself with the equipment and space, if you're not early enough you will have to reschedule. Also, since this location is right across from the high school, be mindful of the traffic in the morning! Plenty of parking was available.

I had surgery the past few months so I haven't been very active (not like I was much more active before) but they're beginner friendly! The band technology they have will track your score and heartbeat so you can see what percentage of your body you're working on. I think it's a really neat system and I definitely want to come back here. Currently I don't go workout often enough for the membership to 'work out' for me.

So I've been trying out different fitness locations and this one was close to home so I decided to…read moretry it out. I signed up for the hot yoga class at around 10am a couple Sundays ago. The location is right off the street so it's really easy to park near the parking garage and walk around to the front. When I walked in I noticed a clean lobby area with merchandise to sell. It was clean and tidy and well lit. I always love to walk into a clean lobby area especially before a fitness class. I met the person at the desk who happened to be the teacher and she had me fill out a waiver since it was my first time and she also introduced me to the studio space. She explained a little about what the various supplies were for and where the bathroom was. Now, there were only 4 other students in the class which was so great to get that personalized experience and she was a great yoga instructor. The only reason im giving it 4 stars is because when I saw "hot yoga" I thought I would be dripping with sweat. Instead, there were three space heaters along the wall that really didn't translate to hot yoga at all. But I want to give credit to the teacher who was a great instructor and I would be more than willing to come do their barre classes or other courses available! I would recommend for sure! But if you're looking for that sweaty hot yoga session, this wouldn't be the place.

I tried out my first class which was free, and there were only a few other ladies at the 6am class,…read moreso I got a lot of personal attention and guidance from the instructor, Elizabeth. The class started with a 10 minute warm up followed by 3 15-minute "blocks" of activities that focused on arms, legs, and core strength. We then finished with some light stretching and yoga poses. I was expecting more exercises using the bar given the studio name, but we only used it for the 15 minutes working on the thigh exercises. As a first time visitor with no experience in ballet, I was still able to keep up and perform the exercises. I especially appreciated how Elizabeth gave many tips on good form and which muscles to focus on, but I would've liked if she had provided modified versions of the activities (she only offered more difficult variations). Overall, the class had very balanced, holistic exercises that would be great for runners, climbers, and anyone looking for hip-opening exercises or ways to develop more well-rounded strength. Membership is $139/month ($125/month for students), and after the free first class, there is also a $49 2-week trial option. Those options include unlimited classes, but you can also get 6-class and 8-class packs for about $100-125.

I'm going to give it up for championship, because it's one of the few youth karate centers that…read moreI've witnessed with the particularly younger kids, that they must actually earn their belts. In many occasions I have seen five or six-year-old kids who have their black belt, and not sure exactly how that happened. But let me make this clear, this is a good thing... I don't want my son to be handed colored belts simply because were paying checks. I want him to know how to defend himself, live healthy and show others respect. And this location and the Sansai are just downright amazing. As I was saying, these kids work and they work hard! They spend the better part of half of the class doing drills and practicing and the other half of the class is straight up calisthenics! When was the last time you saw kids having to do calisthenics at school? I'm talking Burpee's... I'm talking push ups... Sit ups... Crunches... You name it and they are helping these kids get healthy and stronger while learning the pros of martial arts. As far as the facility goes, it's great... It's in a public shopping center in Lake Nona and super easy to get to with lots of parking no complaints there. The facility is also very clean at all times and offers really nice quality uniform those T-shirts and accessories needed for class, But I must say everything is extremely reasonably priced. I believe I paid $10 for my sons T-shirt so that you could wear one in Lou of his karate uniform jacket under in the summer. I don't know when the last time someone only charged me $10 for T-shirt was, because I'm fairly certain Tommy Bahama did not sell me a shirt for $10 and it's a pretty good deal. So in conclusion if you got kids or if you're in adult and you want to get your butt in gear and learn some martial arts this place is awesome and I think, no I know that you will love this joint!
