I have been a member at Northville Burn Bootcamp for over a year…read more Recently, I was advised against strenuous exercise due to sudden health concerns and I reached out to the facility to cancel my membership. The facility does make any consideration for cancelation on medical grounds. They continue to charge with a month membership when the member decides to cancel and even when the member has not used their services. They are very nice and kind as long as you are a member but make it very difficult when you want to cancel especially like in my case, when there is a suddden medical emergency. I liked their classes and hoped to come back after my recovery but the experience when I decided to leave, will not make me come back at this location again! - Inara

As a full-time martial arts instructor, I have been on the lookout for a fitness center that would…read moresupplement my martial arts training. When a friend recently invited myself and my colleague (the owner of the studio where I work) to participate in a private training session, we took advantage of it. We agreed that it was one of the best workouts we had done. We returned the following week to attend a group class. Having trained at Barwis on two occasions, to say that we were impressed is an understatement. We found a fitness facility that can supplement our martial arts training, and get us in amazing shape. First of all, the facility is clean and stocked with state-of-the-art fitness equipment. Weight machines, battle ropes, bands, hurdles, Swiss balls, boxes (for jumping), treadmills, slam balls...you name it, they have it. There is a turf field that runs the length of the facility; I believe it is 100 yards long, perhaps even longer. Second, the trainers are straightforward, encouraging, and knowledgeable. I found this to be true during both private and group sessions. Third, the workout is intense and results-yielding. I have never participated in an hour-long exercise regimen that hit all muscle groups. The soreness lasted for a few days, and short-term results were immediately noticeable. I am looking forward to the longer-term results! In short, Barwis is a state-of-the-art facility with top-notch instructors. If you want results, choose Barwis.

Having worked with Andrew for close to 20 years -- from my time as a competitive athlete in high…read moreschool and college and now as a casual athlete in my mid-30s -- I can say that he is truly a world class fitness professional. He is extremely knowledgeable and well-credentialed in many facets of the industry, from strength and mobility training to injury prevention and rehabilitation to nutrition coaching, and more. Perhaps more importantly, he is constantly learning and growing to stay up-to-date on the latest scientific information, data, and best practices. As a trainer, Andrew listens to his clients' needs and tailors programs to fit what they want to accomplish and how to realistically achieve their goals within the context of the busy lives, schedules, and calendars that we all have. He is open to feedback, and actively seeks out information from his clients about their athletic/exercise background, injury history, nutritional and sleep habits, and other lifestyle factors that allow for a truly personalized program for each individual to reach their exercise goals and remain healthy, active individuals long past their athletic prime. As a person, Andrew is fun, easy going, and lighthearted. He creates an environment in his gym that is simultaneously motivating and appropriately intense, while never making you feel intimidated or judged -- making it seem as though anyone from a professional athlete to a first-time exerciser would feel equally comfortable in the space and in his presence. Whether you are seeking competitive or sport-specific training, injury rehabilitation, weight loss or strength gains, or simply want to stay healthy and mobile as you age, I could not recommend Andrew highly enough. We are very lucky to have someone in our community with the knowledge and skills that Andrew posses. Thanks for all that you do!

I have had many experiences with personal trainers over the years. I never felt like they were…read morefully invested in my progress or they had the skills or knowledge to train me due to my health issues. Most trainers give you a basic cookie cutter workout. I've been training with Andrew now for years. I first started seeing him when I needed help continuing with my weight loss and strength training. As a patient with heart disease he did a wonderful job of challenging me without pushing my limits. Workouts are always different, fun, and a great pace. His knowledge of nutrition, fitness, science, and his dedication to expanding this knowledge has made him an amazing diverse trainer. I came back for training after my heart transplant and it's been one of the best experiences in my journey. I've never felt this safe during workouts. If you're looking for a trainer that will care about you, motivate you, and bring you great results, he is your guy.

The best thing about this gym is that everyone here is so nice and supportive. It doesn't matter if you're lifting 10 lbs or 800 lbs. No one cares. Music is playing and everyone is there to work out and lend a hand to anyone. The owner is a former pro lifter and is also incredibly helpful and nice. It's also super quick and easy to sign up and they offer 24-hour access which I love.

They recently opened and having founding member specials for unlimited access under $200 with a minimum number of months required. I took a class with a ClassPass trial and I have to say it was amazing. Beautiful studio with quant lighting. Mats were setup when I arrived with weights and optional ankle weights. I liked that their custom mats were not thin in depth. Bri, our instructor was very welcoming. She also gave modifications and adjustments as needed. Our class was a small group, but she made sure we all did our best and put in work. She even modeled the exercises with proper form. I like that there was ample parking in the adjacent lot. There were cubbies for your things inside. They also have a curtain to separate the mat room when class gets started. I'd go to another Tuesday morning class with Bri. I'm not the most fit, but I felt that it was a very encouraging environment as I work on building core strength. Tip: plan to sign the waiver and download the BC app before your first class. They are required for new clients. They also have a studio on the east side of town.

Hotworx is the best gym I have ever been to. If you are thinking about switching gyms, or even…read moreadding it to your current gym routine you definitely should! They offer a free session to check out the studio and see if hot exercise is for you. It's $59 for a monthly membership and they offer a 90 day challenge where your calories burned can transfer to studio points. I got a free month after my first challenge and have won various other prizes and credits. They do require you to purchase a special heat resistant yoga mat and towel, but the other resistance bands I bought on Amazon for cheaper. There are 5 saunas for isometric classes and 4 saunas for HIIT classes that contain cycle bikes, rowing machines and their version of an elliptical. I highly recommend Hotworx to everyone!

Reach has been an integral part of my fitness journey. It's the only way I've been able to work out…read more6x a week (with 2 days in which I double up with 2 hours of working out) for going on 8 months now. How does a stretching/sports massage place factor in you ask? I've suffered from chronic injuries, pain since high school sports. E.g. I've had a back spasm last for 3+ hours (just from bending down to pick up something!!) where I couldn't move and I had to just lay horizontally the entire day. I've never been very limber and never really stretched, but now that I'm in my 30s my body will tell me REAL QUICK if I'm not treating it right. So, I decided I need to be proactive. I was first exposed to Reach from some of my gym members. Since then, Reach has offered 15 min sessions during our Gym Open House, In-House Competition, etc. Per their website, the method is a combination of techniques including high pressure percussion, myofascial work, trigger point release, and active assisted stretching. Based on this, don't expect a relaxing massage. It's going to hurt so good & you'll feel great after! You can choose either a membership (which gets you better value at 2x, 3x, 4x a month+) or a la carte packs. It's relatively convenient to book via the Mind Body app! Also, they have a fair amount of specialists so they great availability. They do get booked up but there are some last minute shifts -- all which you can see in the app!

It's almost sadistic, haha- it was basically a half hour of absolute pain, but I felt SO GOOD afterwards. I grew up a competitive dancer and have taught dance part-time for most of my adult life, so my body has been through a lot. Reach's techniques work through every knot and tension that has built up over the years; it's like a combination between massage and physical therapy. I went back a few more times after that due to specials they offered me. Unfortunately, I had to stop going after three or four times because it is just outrageously expensive. I would give this place 10,000 stars if I could if only it were affordable!!
