I've been going to Optimal Sport for over 2 years and I've have nothing but positive things to say. When I first went in I met with Chris he was so encouraging and helpful. I wanted to try working out with a personal trainer, he asked all about me and what I wanted to accomplish. At the time I had recently lost my husband and was recovering from a very bad accident. I had gained a lot of weight and was completely out of shape. Because of my injuries, especially my shoulder, I couldn't lift my left arm over my head, had very poor balance and a host of other annoying issues. Chris thought that Lauren and I would work well together, and he was right! Over the past couple of years I've have had some injuries and other medical issues and Lauren has worked with me through everything. Lauren, Chris and all the trainers have bed nothing but encouraging! I went from not being able to lift a 5lb kettle bell to dead lifting 205lbs, I can leg press 315lbs and squat 160lbs! Now that might seem to be a lot to some people but for a 54 year old short chubby girl it's pretty good!! I love going to Optimal Sport !

I had such a wonderful experience today at NAC in Newtown thanks to Ruthie Kuznetsov! From the…read moremoment I arrived, she was incredibly warm, friendly, and welcoming, which made me feel comfortable right away She took the time to thoroughly walk me through the entire facility, explaining everything in detail and making sure I understood all the benefits and options available. Ruthie was very knowledgeable and patient, answering all of my questions and giving me helpful insights that made a big difference. I truly felt that she cared about making this the best experience for me. Because of her professionalism and positive attitude, I made the decision right away to become a member and I couldn't be happier with that choice! Thank you so much, Ruthie, for such a great introduction to NAC. I highly recommend working with her!!!‍‍

I have been going to Orangetheory Newtown for almost 18 months, 5 days a week on average. I…read moreabsolutely love it. It is a guided workout structure, with half of the class focused on aerobic activities (e.g. treadmill, strider, or bike), and the other half focused on strength and flexibility. The class is guided by trained coaches that time and coordinate all activities, and do their best to motivate everyone. While they provide goals and levels of exertion, it is ultimately up to each person to work as hard as they can or are comfortable doing. The studio is well laid out, and the coaches are all friendly and energetic. The other great feature about Orangetheory is that your membership allows you to go to any Orangetheory studio. Very convenient when traveling for personal stuff or business. It is important to know that some studios, especially those in big cities, may charge members from out of town a fee to attend available classes.

The lobby has nice couches, and they usually have tennis on the tv. There is also a little gym that is pretty affordable. It has basic equipment, and is clean. It usually isn't too crowded.

Also, the best sports massage I ever had from a person who works on a couple of professional and college programs. The owner is one of the best - helpful, knowedgeable about tennis, exercise and a host of other topics but you have to be there early to meet him.

I have been taking Pilates with Ilene for two years. We connected when I was looking for a physical…read morerehab program after a back surgery. I was in constant severe pain from a neurological condition, and was not sure I would be able to engage in much physical activity. I decided to try an introductory Pilates package after chatting with Ilene. I saw right away how much effort Ilene put into understanding the neuromuscular system, and into creating an individualized plan for each client. She used a variety of techniques that allowed me to modify exercises and avoid exacerbating my condition, and she gave me techniques to use to avoid pain in activities of daily living as well, such as getting in and out of the car. Working with her has increased my strength and flexibility, improved my posture and gait, helped reduce my pain, and improved my quality of life. Ilene is passionate about helping people get out of pain, and truly cares about her clients' progress.

I started working with Ilene after I was in a snowboarding accident and put in a wheelchair. I tried many different physical therapies. Newtown health & Wellness is the best. I work one-on-one with Ilene doing pilates. Ilene is earth angel on my journey. She has helped me and encouraged me so much. she knows her stuff. She helped me learn so much about the human body.

The gym is SUPER nice!!…read more If I had one word to describe this gym it would be BADASS. The gym is really hard to find, but instead of driving towards NAC, make a right and drive into the plaza with a bunch of different companies. It's near the therapy place. The design is really cool. I love how the space isn't old school iron, but still has that rough feeling being in a warehouse and concrete floors, etc. As for what the gym has to offer, holy shit, practically everything from 55lb bars to a bunch of weird and different accessory machines lots of gyms don't have. The atmosphere of the gym is alright. I prefer Iron Sport Gym Inc over this gym when it comes to atmosphere. This place is always dead and there aren't a lot of people who come here when I have visited the few times. I think it's $10 a day, but the owner could careless if you pay. It's open pretty much 24/7, just walk in.

Everyone is always here to help and you learn something new about lifting every single day! This is the type of gym anyone can do to. Whether you are a rookie on your first day ever lifting, or even a body builder who has been lifting their entire life. Started coming here when I was 145 pounds and didn't know much about lifting and now I am 180 and really getting the handle on things. The owner, Brian Reed is also my personal trainer. I highly recommend him to anyone that needs or is questioning about what training to get. Any goal you want to reach, he will make sure you reach that goal! I I really enjoy coming here. It has turned into a second home!
