You can actually get to the the squat rack and free weights, and slamming weights isn't allowed since there are surgeries happening on another floor. Their indoor lap pool is always kept warm and no local swim teams are allowed to take it over. I've enjoyed it for years.

I've had a membership with this location as my home studio for over a year now. Once you get there,…read moreit's really easy to get hyped up and excited. I started off with an unlimited membership at first but decreased to a 4 classes a month membership after realizing my travel obligations (no Orangetheory studios close to the areas I was traveling to for work!). Management has always been helpful and understanding. Coaches are high energy and willing to answer any questions or concerns. Oh, and did I mention I've lost 15 pounds since I first started working out here? It works.

I was an out of town girl from but in the 'Sip for my family reunion. I scheduled as usual though…read moremy phone for the class. Upon arrival, I was greeted and had to complete minor paperwork because it was my first time at this Orangetheory fitness center. After I completed the paperwork, I chilled out for a bit. The facility was so clean, just as my home Orangetheory is. More people arrived for the class. Finally, the class started. And Landon, who is an instructor greeted us all and recognized the newbie to Orangetheory. We all entered in and hit our stations. I am a creature of habit butI felt awkward only because the people were all new to me. So I will never take stars away for that. The workout was great, and Landon encouraged us to push ourselves. It was a good workout. As my home gym does, he takes the time to make sure you are lifting weights the right way if he sees you are struggling. I have to say, Orangetheory is an excellent workout. If you are looking for a good workout. This is the place! Some people get scared because they think that it is too intense for them. But you can set your own pace. It's a good workout, it is different everytime, and you can choose your pace. And you will get a lot of coaching to help motivate you to push harder. Keep burning!

Pure Barre is great! I have almost taken 100 classes and have been routinely attending the 6am…read moreclass for almost 9 months. It's hard for me to find a fitness plan to stick with, but so far I've loved Pure Barre and haven't burned out. Pure Barre is all about changing and toning your muscles through small movements and exercises for 55 minutes. It focuses on your thighs, behind, abs, and arms, tighting muscles that can be hard to work out. There is definitely a learning curve when you first start, having to understand what tuck means and how to control your body movements. Once you start to understand the concepts you can really feel the burn and shake of your muscles while doing the workout. I love that there are two locations in the Jackson area with times starting at 6am and ending at 6:30pm allowing anyone to find time to work out for 55 minutes. The community of Pure Barre is fun too, I've met so many people and have workout friends when I attend class. There are many different instructors and I love taking Erika, Avery, and Heidi's classes because they are very motivational and fun. It is also nice because Pure Barre does fun promotions like their 20 in 30 in the spring, CARA donations, and so on. The only downside is that it is a little pricey, but I think it's worth every penny. I have seen a total change in my body shape. I am more toned and lean. If you go 3-4 times a week you will see the most change. I started Pure Barre to get fit for my wedding and I loved the results and felt fit and beautiful on my wedding day. If you are looking to try a new workout, this is the place to go, you'll be hooked after your first class!

I've had mixed experiences at pure barre before but I loved this location! The instructors were very welcoming and friendly-- they took time to learn my (difficult to pronounce) name which I appreciated. The studio was clean and had tons of cute clothing for sale. The workout is tough but fun and keeps you coming back. Check out this location if you are in the area!!
