    There's nothing better than being with a gym so long you get to experience all the growth that…read morecomes with it! Nikki & Nick have really built something special in Scottsdale. I haven't been at Bodi since the beginning but I have been a member for over 5 years and I definitely love that place! There are multiple options of classes that incorporate strength and cardio, yoga, heated mat Pilates and boxing (now Hyrox based class and straight lifting classes). They have expanded to 3 studios to offer all those classes, which is amazing! There's always a variety of exercises to hit the main muscles groups and the accessory muscle groups. The recovery room is super convenient to use after a class or on a rest day. Variety of class times to meet a large range of schedules. They truly value their members and community and are constantly finding ways to benefit the members even more. It can always be a little intimidating trying a new gym or class but I think they do a great job at trying to make everyone feel welcome & it's generally easy to follow along if feeling lost during a workout. The coaches bring so much energy & fun to the classes as well. Bodi is very affordable in comparison to other gyms (especially if you catch one of their sales around holidays). Class pass is another great way to experience some bodi classes. Definitely worth it to try at least once!!

    I've only taken three strength training classes so far, but they've all been great. The workouts…read moreare effective, creative, and genuinely fun. I also love the layout of the gym it's clean, well spaced out, and the equipment is great. My only con so far is that, in my experience, the trainers haven't been very engaged with the class or offered much guidance on form. One of the things I love most about group fitness is when instructors hype up the room & shouting out members, offering motivation, or demoing the moves alongside the class instead of just in the beginning and I haven't really seen that yet. That said, the staff are all super friendly, the gym offers so much more than just strength training (which I'm excited to explore), and the playlists are a solid 10/10. If you're in Scottsdale or just want to try a new gym I highly recommend this one!

You wear a heart rate monitor and it calculates your heart rate and all kinds of other information which allows you to adjust your workout in real time. The information is also emailed to you so you can review it and adjust your future workouts. You continue to burn calories well after the work out. The staff was extremely friendly. The coach was fantastic. They have a full locker room with showers. Unfortunately, the lighting in this space gave me a migraine and I won't be able to go back(orange lights mixed with natural sunlight). Lighting is something I personally get migraines from and is not a reflection of the space.

Plus, all the other coaches rock too, constantly supporting & pushing you to do better. F45 is a great workout and love showing up to burn 500-800 calories! Plus awesome music & a good group of people make it well worth it. For people whining about COVID 19 protocols, I have to say that's 100% BS. This place is cleaner than a hospital. Each person sanitizes each station, the team does it between classes, & they do deep cleans. Thanks for helping me get in shape!

    I go between this location and the Tempe gym on Guadalupe & McClintock. I take class most often…read morewith Rico, he's fantastic! The other trainers at this location are great as well. I love that I can use OTF in many locations and the gym layout is generally the same and workouts are going to be challenging and effective. My opinion on places like Orangetheory or other group fitness places is that for someone *new* to working out, it's sometimes useful to start in a less intense workout environment. Not everyone thinks that, but I've observed myself over the years and anytime I do group fitness classes I tend to push myself much harder than I would working out alone (which is a great benefit). There's a lot of high energy going around in a group setting, however without a solid foundation of safe body mechanics and knowing one's own body, it can be possible to go too fast, push beyond what is reasonable, and get hurt. OTF is great for people building up their fitness levels and have a habit of exercising in some capacity. All levels are welcome but just know the workouts are fast paced and intense most of the time. I had stopped going to group weight training classes for a period of time, then started working 1:1 with a trainer, and when I returned to OTF I could tell the difference in how I prioritized doing the moves correctly and with good form, versus just going fast, using momentum, or trying to keep up with others. That's just my 2 cents. Overall, I keep going to OTF because it's one of many things that helps keeps my body moving and that's a good thing for my functional capacity as I continue to age. And it helps maintain my overall health & fitness as I continue to work my way through my long Yelp list of places to eat ;)

I even had spoke to somebody on the phone in addition to filling out the cancellation form. Fast forward to today, I'm looking through my bank statement and see I was charged again on 6/4. I re-download the OTF app and there's a whole class pack in my account. Sure enough, they had left me on as if I was still attending. I texted to speak with somebody. Never was given grace about the issue. Never spoken to with kindness. I was just told they never got a confirmation of the form. They kept asking me about the confirmation email I was sent and I told them I never got one. I even filled out another cancellation form, and still wasn't sent an email. Just crazy to have been charged, and haven't been going and then to be spoken to like that. Arcadia studio has better energy and customer service than this place.

    I've been to a few classes here now. Both Lagree and mat Pilates. Overall, the experience has been…read morepositive. The workouts are good, and a reasonable amount of credits on ClassPass. The Lagree classes are a great workout. They are a bit fast paced, and can be hard to jump into for the first few times you go. The instructors have been helpful and will usually give first timers a run down on the machine before class if you get there early. The hot mat Pilates classes are also a good workout, and I've enjoyed the instructors. My only complaint is the equipment for the mat classes. The ankle weights have very weak Velcro, and I've yet to make it through a class without them falling off. The hand weights are also very "aesthetic" but they roll around when you set them down. And they use fabric booty bands, which doesn't seem the most sanitary when you think about how sweaty people get during the classes. Overall a good studio, and I'll definitely be back for more classes.

    I really did enjoy the workout, but unfortunately I do have to give it a three just based on the…read moremusic that was played. Every single song was completely vulgar, talking about every inch of a woman's body in such an aggressive manner not really what I wanna hear when I'm trying to feel like an empowered female. I get it-This is what people are listening to now, I like a pump it up song as much as the next person, but for being a place called karma-With a name like "Karma," I expected the atmosphere to feel positive, welcoming, and maybe even a little elevated. Unfortunately, the music being played was extremely vulgar, offensive, and completely out of line with the essence of what the name suggests. The overall music set a harsh vibe versus a pump it up, empowered or relaxing tone. I would hope management reconsiders the type of music they allow, especially if they want the environment to reflect anything close to the meaning of "Karma."

I learned a lot from him. The gym itself is nice, extremely clean, and has a great variety of equipment. Highly recommend!

    Above and beyond…read more Going out of my way to write my first yelp review because of how impressed I am and how much recognition this should get! My fiancé is a touring musician who unfortunately started having seizures about 2 years ago. We wanted to try and find a gym/trainer that 1.) had experience with clients with seizures (or at the very least were comfortable working with him) and 2.) would be willing to help develop some routines he can do while on tour I called and the owner 'Sweets' quickly answered the phone. He was extremely friendly and professional right off the bat and introduced himself while giving me the jist of the facility and their programs; he naturally speaks confidently and eloquently, but in a casual way where it seems genuine and not like he's a salesman. When I told him about my fiancé's seizures, without skipping a beat he said, "Oh, that's not a problem! I've had several clients and friends with seizures and epilepsy. When would you like to come check out the facility?" I was so pleasantly surprised with his response. I was worried that gyms/trainers may be hesitant to even work with him, so I was ecstatic that we found someone who wouldn't treat him like a medical case or liability. We went in the next day to check out the facility and talk in person more at length about his background, goals, costs, etc. It's a small, neighborhoodly kind of place that is clean, put together, and has modern equipment. The atmosphere is laidback, open-armed, and non-threatening regardless of who's there. Although they offer personal training, Sweets recommended doing the group classes because they're usually small enough groups that you basically get one-on-one training at a much cheaper price. He also said the first class was free and to try it out, then we could talk about signing up or not. No pressure. Uh... When's the last time you heard of a gym trying to save you money? We also touched back on the seizures, and he asked a bit more info that reassured me he had a background with them, such as, "Does he have auras? Are they full seizures or partial?" etc., while still having the casualness that made my fiancé feel at ease and excited he'd be treated like everyone else and not a medical case. Right before my fiancé was supposed to take his first class, he unfortunately ended up having a partial seizure and was having coordination/concentration problems. I called Sweets to let him know we wouldn't make it in and he said, "No problem! Just come to the next class he feels good to go." He also reached out to his friend/client who has long time had seizures to get information about if they've noticed any diets or workouts that they've noticed have helped or hurt their occurrence of seizures. All of this before he even got a dime from us. Long story short - this is not only a laidback, skillful and knowledgeable gym, they also actually care and want what's best for people. They're not just a good gym, they're good people.
