Great Workout! I worked out Tuesday morning at 6 am with Peter and WOW! What a way to start my day off. It was my first time back in a year after my first impromptu session and he made me feel comfortable but also sore for 24hrs. The morning classes are quick and most of all convenient. The parking is free at that time and that's a huge plus, especially in Miami. There's wasn't that many people there so he was able to give very specific attention and instruction. It was a level 1 class for 30 minutes but the perfect energy boost. They offer towels at each stations and sugar boosts at the front desk (Starbursts and Chewing Gum). I would definitely come back again for the morning sessions. Thanks Peter! read more

Cardio and leg day in 30 minutes, yes please! This studio conducts its workouts on stationary climbers in darkened and club-like lighting with great energy. You can expect to get a little breathless and sweaty within a few minutes of starting since they start you right away with active climbing. It takes a little time to get used to stepping and pushing/pulling vertically while strapped into the climber, since the movement is different from your other daily activities. You need to remind yourself not to crane your head and neck back---don't worry, your head will not hit the climber center pole, trust me I've tried. But if it's good enough for Bradley Cooper (see the article about Rise Nation they have posted next to the restroom), it must be good enough for me. If you're going for the first time, make sure to look at the schedule and see what levels are being offered in their classes. They have classes ranging from Level I (good for beginners, can add on) to Level III ("EXTREME"), so pay attention to what you attend. The staff and instructors are very nice and helpful about getting you situated on the climber, so don't hesitate to tell them if it's your first time. Hint: the handles that you grab onto can be removed and put in different height holders, which they will tell you. The instructors will tell you that they go between a "mid range" (regular strides) and "long range" (full strides). Their cues will alternate between these ranges, different resistances and faster/slower paces. Once you get used to the climber, don't be afraid to go faster, "rip" (reach and stride) longer and increase resistance when they instruct you to. Remember, you need to get it all in within 30 minutes! The actual class time can run up to 35-40 minutes if you stay for the full cool down and stretch, so don't expect to bolt out in 30 minutes if you want the full workout experience. It's still a very efficient workout if you're looking to change up your exercise routine! They offer lots of promotional packages that give you 10 classes for $10-15 each, so look for them online and when you go! And/or use the amazing ClassPass like me, since each class costs 6-7 credits. Parking is not too bad for the Design District, since there is a lot of street parking within a block or two of the studio's building. There's a juice bar on the same block if you want to treat yourself for all the good work you've done! Try it out, see you there soon! read more

Such a fun class. Its a quick 30 minute workout on these climbers that you need your arms and legs to move up and down. Its an excellent core workout (when engaged), and cardio exercise. The trainers are all upbeat and do their best to keep everyone motivated. read more

They really need to introduce new people to the machine before class. I'd never used a versaclimber before and got there 10 min early to make sure I had time to get introduced. However we weren't let into the room until class started and the instructor didn't even ask us to raise our hand if new. I had no idea how to adjust my machine and within 30 seconds the room became pitch black and the workout started. Honestly it was kind of alarming because I couldn't even find my way out of the room and I couldn't even get on the machine. When the neon lights started flashing, it gave me enough light to get the receptionist who helped me but it was really hard to find my machine again because again it was pitch black, and she didn't have a flashlight. I really feel like this is a terrible first experience for newcomers. I hesitate to give a business a bad review (you'll see on my Yelp I have only done so a couple times) but this place needs to be welcome to new people if they're going to make it. I'll probably delete this once they've read it. read more

Here at Rise Nation for the first time at 6 am, and I must say this is the coolest & hardest class I've ever taken in my life. When you walk in, the music is very fun and hip. I love climbing to the beat of the music. Very interesting technique you have to have. Within 5 minutes my entire body was shaking .. other than that, I will be coming back! I'm giving it 4 stars because I didn't know what to expect ... read more

I signed up for my first Rise-Nation class via class pass. When I arrived to Rise Nation I noticed I know longer had a reservation. It somehow just disappeared. This was definitely a class pass problem but instead of just turning me away the girl at the front desk invited me to stay and comped my class. This was EXCELLENT customer service and I was so appreciative for how she handled the situation. The class itself was brutally hard! I don't think I have ever felt that exhausted from exercising before in my life. I will definitely return and encourage everyone to give Rise Nation a try as it was truly a unique and fun workout. read more

Hot new workout spot in Miami! Great atmosphere, great staff, and beautiful location. My favorite class is with instructor Cindy! She really motivates you to push your limits and get that extra climb in! You can go at your own pace but I try to keep up with the instructor. Music goes well with the 30 minute class, you kindof get lost in the music and working out that the 30 minutes feel like an hour! Definitely get a great sweat in! If you're willing to try something new, fun, and exciting, I highly recommend this workout! Can't wait for my next class! It's more than a workout with Cindy, it's a party! read more

Absolutely loved it. Was not a fan of waking up for a 7 am class but so worth it! It's 30 min non stop! Full body workout! Great Music choice by the instructor! Adriana was beyond AWESOME! Kept motivating us throughout the entire thing. Towards the end we slowed it down but again non stop! Then raced to the finish. You come out feeling like a badass and realize it's only 7:30 am definitely returning!! Thanks for coming to Miami! read more

Intense and engaging this is a really fun place to workout! I wish they had one in saint louis now after experiencing this one in Miami. Highly recommend! read more

This is by far the best 30 minutes invigorating whole body workout investment. The instructor is a high energy motivator. The atmosphere and music is addicting. read more

Rise Nation Miami - Great workout!! - Gyms Near Me - Miami, Florida

I have been trying to call this place for over an hour. The voicemail is full. I have some questions and I'm driving from WPB

The best workout for your time when it comes to calories! Burn a few hundred calories in just 30 mins with low impact but high intensity. The instructors, music, lights and vibe will take you for an unforgettable workout. This is how I reset after a long week of work or just the daily routine. Love this place! See you for class tomorrow :) read more

It's a great full body workout that is over before you know it since most classes are just 30 minutes. The instructors are high energy, the music is great and the room is dark so you can truly focus on your own workout and nothing else around you. read more

Okay let's start by saying I run. A LOT. Sometimes 7 miles a day. Before walking in I was thinking there is no 30 minute class that I can't handle... boy was I wrong! Luckily this class allows you to move at your own pace, and the goal is to beat your own personal score the next time. I'm so excited to come back and challenge my score next time!! read more

After being addicted to Rise Nation in West Hollywood I can honestly say that Rise Nation in Miami is the perfect supplement to my routine. After doing Orange Theory for months I feel that the running is too hard on the joints. The great thing about Rise Nation is that it is low-impact and it will allow you to build different types of muscle, keep you in alignment and it's way shorter than Orange Theory. So my routine now is doing yoga @ Ahana Yoga and Rise for cardio. This class is way funner than a spin class as well. read more

Rise Nation is a place I've been wanting to try for some time and since it's on Classpass I decided today was the day. They have a parking garage or street parking available for you. The garage is $3 for 1-3 hours and the street parking is probably around $1.50 for an hour. Since the workout is 30 minutes I suggest the street parking if you can find some (get there a little earlier since there isn't that much available). I got there a little early thinking they might show me around or introduce me to the machine. They didn't so I just signed my waiver and waited with the other members of the class. FYI: They have 1 shower for women and 1 for men so if you have to shower run out of the class when it ends or you might get stuck waiting. The numbers on the machine are in the front of them or some on the sides so it was a little disorienting, but very difficult to locate your machine. I love that you don't have to rush to select a place it's told to you at the beginning and you can make changes if the class isn't packed ( a girl wanted to workout alongside her friend and they changed it for her). Tip: If you're going during a hectic time slot I would call and try to have them do it over the phone. The instructor asked us as we walked in to raise our hands if it was our first class (which I did) so she went over the dynamics of the machine. I couldn't hear her so well and with trying to locate my machine I know I missed some her instructions. There's someone inside helping people, but 1 person helping about 5 new people is too little in my opinion. I figured out the machine and the class pretty much started immediately (Tip: stretch before). They turn off the lights and throughout the workout they change the colors /lighting (be mindful of this if you suffer from seizures etc). It was definitely different and I originally thought 30 min was too little, but now I get why it's so short. It's as intense as you make it allowing you to crank up your speed or resistance as she guides you through different speeds and strides "mid-rise, etc". The instructor makes it relatively easy to follow and she was a ball of energy the entire time. She also will get on her climber and demo for you. They provide towels at every station, which was nice to see. Overall I liked it. I would recommend using the workout as more of a suplement to what you're doing now (maybe come 2 times a week). A nice change and perfect for when you need a really quick workout that doesn't kill your joints. read more

What an amazing workout!. You go in thinking 30 minutes won't be bad but 3 minutes in I wasn't sure I was going to make it. Luckily you can go at your own pace and stop whenever you need to. You use the climber to the beat of the music and it feels like you are at a club with the lighting. After 10 minutes I forgot about how hard it was and just got into the music. I've only taken Alex's class. His music was great, all hip hop you can jam to. The day after my entire body was sore but I am excited to go again! The studio itself is very nice, clean and modern. They provide you with towels and you can purchase water if needed. read more

Definitely a unique spin on a fitness class. Use a stationary stairclimber/bike/lat pull down for 30 minutes non-stop. Would definitely throw it in my ClassPass rotation here and there but wouldn't substitute as my main workout. One piece of feedback for staff: since this is such a new concept, spend 5 minutes explaining the machine and instructions on what's "mid-rise," etc. Felt the class was pretty clueless for first 10 minutes. Recommended for a great quick workout read more

Wow what a workout! Talk about getting my butt kicked like never before. So it's hard to describe the stair climber meets ladder but it definitely is a challenge just operating that machine if it's your first time. The instructor was great as she really challenged me. I left feeling great and drenched in sweat. read more

What a great workout. You don't just get legs; you get abs and arms too. I have never sweat so much in such a short time. And the music and energy is awesome. read more

Be careful trying this class, because once you do, you are HOOKED ! It's so amazing ! I literally recommend this to everyone ! All the instructors always have so much energy, talk about your purpose your strength affirmations, I mean they push you to be your best while your in that class ! My favorites are definitely Romina and Adri, they are powerful ! If I could I'd give them 10/10 stars! read more

Fun, effective and efficient workout! The lighting creates such a high-energy vibe and you really work up a sweat in just 30 min. Plus, all of the instructors are super motivational and staff is very friendly. Great place! read more

Loved this class! It will challenge your fitness level; the most intense 30 min full body workout. I took Lulu's class, she was friendly and energetic with a great playlist. I will definitely return and recommend it to others. read more

Loved the workout the instructors & great music was visiting for the weekend and went back the second day.

Incredible workout. Fantastic music and instructors. Great location! Customer service is great as well. My package was expiring because I was traveling and they extended it no problem. It may take a class or two to get the hang of the machine, but the first class is free! read more

One of my favorite places to get a quick 30 minute workout in! First time I tried it out, I was a tad bit nervous but once I was in the class, I loved every bit of it!! Feels like you are in a nightclub with loud music and cool lights. 30 minutes may seem too little but once you try out the class you know it's more than enough! My apple watch told me I burned 500 calories within those 30 minutes and I was very sore the next day. Everything about this place is great, including the staff and trainers! Also, love how it's in the Design District. Love hanging around the area and making new friends or eating at a healthy spot before or after the workout. Can't complain about this place! Excited to go back read more

Soul cycle and Barrys addict and these two classes were just another level hard . So hard everyone takes breaks but already I broke my routine and lost weight . Girls it targets your ass and abs if done correctly and guys u can get a large arm and back workout by just using more arms . I had knee reconstruction and just like soul easy in the joints but this climber it's impossible to slack. The first class u will feel like u will die both me and my fiancé did the first song but u gradually realize u can make it through . Only tried out Cindy - in fantastic shape and plays a lot of reggaetón but super motivating . Lots of guys and girls in the class , even ratio read more

This by far is the most all around class! It works almost all your muscles while doing cardio for 30 min! It really push's you to your limit while having fun! It's becoming like a community with an amazing family vibe! It's what I've always been looking for! Thank you rise nation!! read more
