It was years since i stepped into a gym, in addition to recovering from knee surgery - i could…read morehardly get down to the floor and getting up was worse. After area research i contacted Joe at Iron House to talk through membership, costs, equipment and using their in-house trainers. I will simply say this gym is a throwback in every positive way to what a gym should be - nothing fancy but everything you need; it was exactly like all my favorite gyms rolled into one - enough wieghts, cardio, machines (including some not found in other gyms) and fitness accessories (bands, steps, mats, sticks, heavy balls, etc). Most important i never felt uncomfortable. or judged - especially given my limitations - every staff-person and member was focused on their workouts and staff duties, and all were respectful and always helpful. This gym "vibe" is best captured with me struggling to stand up while at the same time the morning group classes - intense, difficult, and demanding - were going on in the designated area and I never once felt "less" or judged - always smiles (not sure how they managed to smile!!) and hello. Enter Anna or better known as "Coach" to many in the gym who use her personal trainer services. Anna was the perfect blend of understanding (adjusted equipment and moves to my level), motivating, encouraging and yes tough as she needed to be - i went from day-one needing help laying down and then getting up, to 3 sets of 3 different exercises, to workingout on my own. At home I could once again climb stairs (from one stair at a time) and had more energy at work. Joe has built a community (both in and out of the gym) and regardless of whether a member took part in other activities, everyone is also welcomed. Lastly a shoutout to Bruce who faithfully opened the gym every morning, even while recovering from his own surgery...

This gym is the best! Joe, Kati and the entire staff are knowledgeable about fitness and they are…read morededicated to the community. October has been quite a month for the Iron House Fitness. They sponsored "IHF Moves 4 Autism", where members and local athletes participated in different events (run/bike/run duathlon, lift-off, fun run, thruster/run). All proceeds were donated to the Mayer Center at Middlesex Hospital and The Nest in Deep River. Both support or employ children and adults with autism. Then there was a motivational competition for all members. You just needed to show up for classes to participate - easy!! I love my gym community! I have made great friends while maintaining my physical health. If you're looking for a great gym, this is the place!

I have been to 10 Jazzercise classes now and have found every class really FUN! The instructors…read morehave all been fantastic, and no class hour has been exactly the same. Hand weights, bands, and dance... A great combination! The room is big, well lit, and the people who go to class are friendly. The scheule of classes gives you many optional times of the day to go. The room is air conditioned when it is hot outside, and occasionally we're even treated to cold "spa towels" (washcloth size) to cool off at some point during the class. The hour goes quickly, and the music and instructors are great! They have a college student special for the summer, which makes starting-up price very reasonable to try it for a month or two!

Plagued by injuries this year, I've been on the hunt for a new delivery method for my daily dose of…read moreendorphins. My yoga practice just hasn't been cutting it for me. I've been walking with a friend and pedaling away on my exercise bike, but I'm a girl who needs the espirt de corps of a class. On the spur of the moment, Laura and I (Zumba lovers from way back), decided to give Jazzercise a go. I know, I know...but it's not what you think. This is super fun, old school, low-impact aerobics set to a current soundtrack (Bruno Mars! Ed Sheeran!), and the lot of us (young, old, and in-between) chassed and step-tapped for a happy forty minutes before turning to light weights, crunches, and floor exercises. We were sweaty and grinning and the hour whizzed by. At $55 for unlimited classes a month, plus lots of class times to choose from, this could be my new thing (daycare, too). It's too bad my old Jane Fonda-ish thong is long gone, but I am most definitely pulling out the sweatband for this one. Pricing is month by month, no joining fees. The best deal is $49 a month unlimited classes automatic funds transfer, that can be canceled anytime. Regular price is $55 for a month of unlimited classes and $15 walk in. We went to Old Saybrook but find Jazzercise in Niantic, Killingworth, and Madison, too.

My wife and I have been coming to this studio since it opened in 2020. We look forward to our…read morespinning classes together. Although we've owned a peloton bike for over 4 years, we still come to this studio several times a week because we enjoy the classes and the camaraderie of the other spin regulars. The studio is very clean, the equipment is well maintained, and the instructors are top notch. My wife and I have taken spin classes at other gyms, including when we travel, but so far, we rate our experience at Crank Cycle the best. Denise, the owner, is very personable and bubbly and her enthusiasm is contagious. My wife combines her spin experience with participation in the challenging Shredz class that precedes the spin classes, so she really gets a great workout for 1.25 hours (spin classes are 45 minutes).

I have been going to Crankcycle since they opened. I have had a good experience until I had an…read moreissue and wanted to talk to the owner. I tried texting her to no response. Then when I went to class today before training I once again tried to talk to her but she was too busy to talk to me. So before my second class in her studio I told her I needed to talk to her again, she was annoyed when I brought up an issue I had with her as a member. I was upset and I raised my voice and she immediately raised her voice back. As an owner of the business, you can not do that. It's unprofessional. I pay a big membership for her studio and instead of trying to resolve the issue when I said I will continue at her studio until the end of the month she told me to leave now and will credit me back for the month very nasty. So I packed my stuff up and left. No resolution, just very abrupt and nasty. No customer service as an owner and professionalism at all. She had her business partner watch me pack my stuff and leave. Then when I messaged her to let me know when she issued me a credit, I got a response back: "Why are you texting me, I'm going to block you". That fact and response alone was not professional for an owner of a spin studio. This was an unfortunate event and not expected from a person I have known for over 20 years. I am hoping she at least is true to her word and credits me the month back after she told me to leave.

When it comes to a good Zumba class, it's all about the instructor. They've got to have an…read moreinfectious energy that invites you to loosen up and get down, even if you're shy or believe yourself uncoordinated. Jessica Demers, owner of Body Karma in Clinton, definitely has that energy--she sings while she dances, she's encouraging, and she's clearly having a blast. Set to an upbeat soundtrack of pop, Latin tunes, Zumba tracks, and a healthy dose of holiday songs (I attended class just before Christmas), Jessica and I box-stepped, twirled, swayed, and cut a proverbial rug across the studio's wooden floor. What I loved most about her class was we didn't only dance--Jessica also incorporated strength-training intervals with hand weights and kettlebells to get our heart rate up and work our legs, glutes, abs, arms, and shoulders. By the end of the hour I was a sweaty mess, albeit a happy one--not only is Zumba one of the best exercises for cardio and coordination, it's also a great way to elevate your mood. Classes: Zumba, yoga, pilates. Schedule: Between 4 and 7 morning and evening classes Monday through Thursday, 3 morning classes on Friday and Saturday, and 2 morning classes on Sunday. Atmosphere: Quaint and homey, with new local art exhibited on the walls every three months. Price: $15 drop-in, 5 classes-$65, 10 classes-$110, 20 classes-$200. Extras: Private sessions, reiki, art receptions, kids classes, workshops, event and party bookings available.

Cute, unpretentious, convenient workout spot with yoga, Zumba, Pilates, and more…read more I love that Body Karma is conveniently located near the post office, breakfast joint, and my go to grocery store. I love their tech savy: they text, you sign your waver on an iPad, get an email receipt, they have phone charging stations in the cubbies. I love the unpretentious atmosphere with cute bright colors, local artists paintings for sale, and cute little mini lounge with bright pillows. Nice staff, nice teachers! Class: For me personally, the particular Yoga class I chose was too mellow and too spiritual. It was a Daoist form of Yoga which I have not experienced before, and there was a lot of focus on energy work, healing, and meridian lines. It was a very slow series of flowing movements. Although I tried to engage my muscles as much as possible in the poses, I never got to a point where my body felt warm. I tried to surrender to the class, maybe I need to relax! But, I'm totally OCD about symmetry and I kept drifting visually to all the textures and colors in the room, and found all the details too distracting. The room was on the colder side, and with the slow class I ended up feeling unpleasantly cold. Overall I suspect that this atmosphere with all the fun bright colors would be great during Zumba, or a more active training class, which they do offer. I'd also be more careful personally to understand that there are many different types of yoga, and understand exactly which kind of class I am attending! I'd try them again for a more active class
