I love the variety of classes they offer, everything from yoga and barre to boxing, Sweat, TRX and now Lift. That class alone has encouraged me to increase my weights significantly and the difference it's making in my strength level is notable. I also love the community aspect, everyone who works there and attends classes is so nice and welcoming, and that all starts with the owner Kristen. The place is so clean and inviting, and the boutique is top notch. I even find shirts there that are suitable for work events! Last but definitely not least, there's Bear, the cutest and sweetest head of PR / mascot / occasional guest in Kristen's barre class wind down that you will ever meet.

I needed a gym to workout for 30 days. Westerly Fitness was the cure. No other venues in the area…read morecould accommodate. Met with Mike the owner and he hooked me up. The venue has ample parking, men's/women's lockers and showers, filtered hydration stations . The gym is divided into 3 areas: Cardio/weights , workout classes and weight room . The usual players are there: Lifefitness, Rogue, Hammer Strength, Atlas, Precor , Platinum boxing and much more. Note no chalk is allowed. Members wipe down the apparatus after use which I appreciate. If you choose to workout in the mornings, Michelle will greet you with a cheerful hello as she keeps the areas clean. I highly recommend this no nonsense gym. You need to give Westerly Fitness your undivided attention. Johnny C

If you come from a gym with real gym culture, this gym is not for you. The young man who works here…read moreon the weekends is great and friendly. But the women who works during the week is the most rude & unwelcoming worker I have ever encountered. She is not friendly & if you are not from the area she watches you like you're going to burn the place down. My family has been spending our summers in Rhode Island since my mom was a little girl, I have always had great memories & amazing things to say about every place I ever went. But the hospitality to people who don't go to this gym everyday is not there. My home gym welcomes everyone with open arms & we have triple times the influx of summer visitors OF ALL AGES...also with no restricted areas. Last year was the first time we tried this gym & we had the same problem, rules & regulations that she makes sure we follow but not too concerned with others. If you are an outsider you will always feel like you're being watched. Now going in to the "off limit" area. I completely understand having equipment that only members could use in their "CrossFit" room but when the classes go on you can't use the area (understandable), so that takes one room away. Now they have a "stretching" room that you would think they would allow you to use as CrossFit when a class is in session but no...that room's equipment is also all off limits. My problem with all of the off limit areas (beside the fact that I've never been to a gym that did this) is there aren't many open areas to be in where you can do a hiit workout or just abs. You have to try to find a corner where you're not in anyone's way. They are definitely catering to the older crowd which is fine but if you are young going to this gym you will feel as though you're being targeted & not treated the same. Also if you're going to have a ton of off limit areas for "non platinum" members then at least have one corner for hiit work outs where people can go with "on limit" equipment. Now going off of always being watched & worried that no matter what I do I will be told I can't do that or I'm not allowed to. The stretching room equipment is off limits but if we would have brought the stuff from the other area I feel as if we would have been told we can't do that either. You can't move the benches so that takes out an area & if you can't move the benches how are we sure we can bring the boxes to a different area. Finally, no bags are allowed on the floor so if you are apart of the younger gym culture and have your own equipment (like most people at almost every gym I've been to) like straps & a belt or a barbell pad...you have to go in to the locker room every time you need one of those things! And I'm sure if I was playing music loudly off of my phone speakers like one man was, I would be told I can't do that. I never felt welcome or comfortable, I always felt like I was being watched & going to be told I can't do something. Even while my husband recorded some of my workouts, she walked past staring. I have gone to gyms all over the country & never had an experience like this. I have worked out with award winning bodybuilders in Hawaii with a friendlier crew than here. Most of the people that work out there are friendly but of course they are because they aren't getting the same treatment. I am never one to sit & nit pick things that I don't like about a place but from the first week I spent in this gym, I was not happy with the treatment. I have never reviewed a place, especially not a bad one but this place definitely deserves it since there was no change from last year. I can't imagine how this women would do in a busier gym setting on top of not seeming like she know much about the gym either. Again, I'm not one to ever judge but since receiving the same treatment from her a year later she's obviously judging me & my husband &all other outsiders. I don't know if it's based off of our appearance or age but she never smiles when I say hello or goodbye & that's just horrible customer service. We tried to give this gym another chance but after this time we will not be back. We already found a new gym & the people are super friendly...we sat & talked with them for a good 10 mins, knowledgeable & overall exactly what we look for. I was thrilled leaving this new gym that we found one that fits our lifestyle & our friendliness. It really is a shame because this gym is very nice and well kept. It has so much potential to be great and have a younger crowd but I guess that's exactly what they don't want. I wish they would just say that in their description instead of making you feel unwelcome. And again the women who works at the from doesn't treat outsiders friendly & definitely wouldn't have a conversation with you. I hope the front desk work changes her attitude because it's a shame that a young couple who loves to work out can't feel safe or comfortable doing what they love based off of our look or age.
