I took the Saturday noon circuit session with Tania. It was my first time and she came over at every exercise and reminded me what it was and helped me make sure I was doing it correctly. The circuit class had six stations so after every change, I forgot what the exercise was but she was there to quickly run through it with me. She was also very encouraging. At the end of the class she mentioned of a competition day that was open to everyone. The space has nothing but a water fountain, lockers, bathroom, sanitizer and cleaning wipes for the machine, no towels, shower or amenities. I enjoy Metcon (5min exercise - 1min rest) and the variety of it all. The class went quickly and id definitely do the class again. It was my first time working out in a while and i could keep up. Would give it 5 stars but lack of amenities is a big bummer. read more

I love the classes at Session, which are challenging and engaging, and more than that I love the community. The feeling of belonging, especially in NYC, when you see the same people in class, and the front desk staff and instructors know you by name, is invaluable. I've gotten stronger thanks to Session, and found a great community. I couldn't recommend it enough! read more

I started Session at the end of 2023 and it's been one of the best gyms I've gone to. It's nice to be able to just show up to the gym and have awesome instructors put you through a great workout. It honestly feels like you have a personal trainer form correcting and pushing you, even though it is technically a group class. I also really like the structure at Session as opposed to some other group classes I've gone to seem like they are just a bunch of random exercises thrown together. Each class has a warm up and then set workouts that you perform at 3 stations. The great thing is that each day has a different goal of the workout (strength/cardio focus) so there is a ton of variety from day-to-day but the overall program is built with a long term purpose of building different muscles over time - all focusing on functional strength/movement. Finally, it's an amazing community of people - they throw happy hours, challenges, and events that bring people together and I'm so glad I joined up! read more

You're actually missing out out if you haven't gone to this gym because the trainers ACTUALLY WATCH YOUR FORM. They ACTUALLY don't want you to get injured. Most classes elsewhere just let you do whatever and just want you to sweat, but the Session focuses on your strength and form. Shoutout to Sam and Arthur (aka the best front desk team ok) Session ilysm read more

SESSION is a brand new circuit gym in Williamsburg. Classes are one hour and include a warm up, the circuit workout and a cool down. The circuit workout included three sections that had three separate workout stations in each section for a total of 9 different activities in total. Groups of three people rotated through the stations in one section for 3 rounds. Each activity was done for 45 seconds. 15 seconds was allotted to switch between stations. After three rounds there was a longer break (I think 90 seconds - 120 seconds) to drink water and switch to a new section with three new activities. The circuit is complete after finishing all activities. Instructors were friendly and had a charming Australian accent. They did a good job showing what needed to be done at each station and during the warm up and cool down. They also roamed around during the circuit workout to give tips and perfect form. They gave a good amount of encouragement that made you feel like pushing yourself, but not pushing yourself beyond your limits. The facility has a cozy lounge area in front with bottled water, some benches and towels. Toward the back they have lockers with the lock built in (you set the combination there, but if you forget it they can unlock it for you with a master key), some bathrooms and a water fill station if you bring your own bottle. They are in the process of adding showers. The workout area did not seem big, but they used all of the space efficiently for the workouts. I didn't feel like I needed more space when I was doing the activities. Some of the equipment that I enjoyed using during the class were the rowing machine, sled, skiing machine (didn't know this existed be for seeing it here) and stationary bike. Looking forward to the next workout here. read more

Session Training - Inside after class - Circuit Training Gyms Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Working out is hard. You're literally putting your body under stress for #gainz. Session makes the banality of exercising more palatable with [extremely] short stints per station, so that before you can utter "I can't feel my arms anymore" or "I could quench the thirst of an entire village with my sweat" you're moving onto the next station. On a recent Wednesday evening the room was fully packed to the brim with people. Everyone I interacted with was warm and encouraging which is not an attitude I'm normally met with at New York gyms, let alone at one in Williamsburg. This made the fact that the class was so crowded a bit more manageable so that when I was almost elbowed in the face or almost threw a med ball on someone's foot I just smiled sheepishly at them and all was forgiven. This small studio is full of new equipment, ranging from battle ropes, to row machines, to ski machines. There are a couple of gender neutral showers and one bathroom, as well as a separate sink area if you simply want to wash your hands. If it weren't for how cramped the space felt given the number of people I'd make this class a regular part of my routine. read more

Incredible workouts. Incredible trainers. Sessions is a goldilocks gym. Trainers are encouraging and push you. Workout classes have variety. And the community they draw into the studio are all good eggs (so if you're reading this you'd better bring good vibes). I've been going for 4 months now and have seen a huge difference just by going 2x a week (although I'm enjoying it so much now I go 3x). Definitely go here and make this part of your routine. read more

I've been a member for years and can't say enough good things about this gym! I started at the South Williamsburg location (fantastic) and am now at the North Williamsburg location (love it). The coaches are all fun and professional and really know their stuff. The classes are perfectly planned out and the gym has really friendly vibe and a great sense of community. read more

I'm a new member at Session (not even one month in) and I'm hooked! From the first time I stepped in, I felt genuinely welcomed into the community by the staff and coaches. And the coaches are a wealth of knowledge! As a dancer and Pilates instructor, I know my body quite well, and yet I'm still learning more about proper body mechanics and how to refine my form with each class I take. The coaches actually see you and invest in you, and your physical wellness, by correcting form/providing modifications/pushing you to lift heavier/etc. Even after just a few weeks of consistent practice, I feel stronger--physically and mentally! Session will definitely be a regular part of my routine for a long time to come :) read more

Awesome studio and instructors with great comprehensive workouts! Hands down my favorite gym in Brooklyn. Great for a sweat and leaves you feeling strong. Love their new North Williamsburg location at 28 Frost St. read more

Hands down one of my favorite workouts I've ever done. They seem to want to produce a sense of community and camaraderie and that's cool. Coaches are super encouraging and do a great job with helping out on form. If there's one minor knock, it's a little small and the locker/bathroom/shower area is a little cramped but it's manageable. I honestly can't wait to get back into a class. read more

I took my first Session class today and it totally exceeded my expectations. I'm sometimes weary about HIIT based classes, but Coach Britt's class got me hitting every body part, working what felt like every muscle, and I'm already feeling the work I put in. I also loved the way she explained each move and helped with necessary adjustments. And her playlist was ! 10/10 can't wait to come again! read more

can't say enough good things. the coaches are great - motivating and knowledgeable with playlists that getcha goin'. and special 5 star shoutout to Nico because i've been doing personal training with him since january and i feel stronger than ever. 10/10 recommend this place to anyone. read more

I initially tried Session with their $40 2-session pass and really enjoyed it. For that reason, I decided to go for their $160 unlimited intro month and will continue their unlimited monthly classes. The reason why I love their classes because they're effective and efficient (only a 50min-1 hour). As someone who is not as productive at the gym alone, I really like the small class size. I feel like the instructors keep an eye out for everyone's form and push them if they could do more weight. Although $200/month seems like a huge amount, I see it as an investment to my health and you're also receiving semi-private attention from the instructors. That's great value in itself. read more

Dear Katrina, I was one of your first customers. I reached out after several poor experiences with staff not being attentive to my injuries and you never replied. I saw you take classes but not even have time to reply. read more

I found Session through Classpass and I keep coming back! They offer circuit workouts with clear direction in a clean and positive environment. I really appreciate instructors who dedicate time to a good warm up and who break down the movements you're about to tackle. I think what I like most is the consistency of instructors and positive energy they put out to the class. Everyone is paired up in circuit groups that you workout with throughout the session and there is some real camaraderie that keeps you motivated. Each class is different whether you return to a signature class or move on to conditioning so you're always challenged. I've only been to a handful of classes, but I feel that I'm getting stronger each time and leave with a great workout. read more

Incredible facility, employees, and coaches. They give you glass water bottles to use for their filtered water station. Love that I don't have to bring my own bottle and their eco-friendly initiatives. It's always a killer workout, with stretches to keep you going and a community vibe. It's one of my favorite places to work out. read more

I love Session! I'm recovering from multiple injuries and was hesitant to join the class but I'm so glad that I did. Hands down one of the best workouts in NYC. Everyone is so welcoming and understanding all the trainers helped me modify movements for my injury! Additionally the people who attend are great, everyone is super friendly! read more

SESSION is my fave! I love that I can rock up at 6.30am most mornings and get a challenging hiit workout - some days the motivation isn't there so its perfect, all I need to do is turn up. They have added small strength based classes in the back studio room where you can workout on your own as well. I love having options and being able to mix it up. Lastly, the staff are all so lovely and welcoming. The trainer's really get to know you - they know your limits so always push you further so you keep improving. read more

I recently discovered Session and I have nothing, but great things to say about this gym! I was a little intimidated when I read the class description, but the trainers are extremely welcoming and helpful and there is a lot of positive energy in the room. It's definitely a challenge, but the music is great and we move quickly through the exercises so you're never stuck doing something you hate. I also love that they have a 10:30 am class because it works perfectly with my schedule. Session is the best! read more

I've tried a couple of HIIT based workout classes across Manhattan and Brooklyn but Session is by far my favorite! The boutique space gives is a premium feel which sets it apart from it's competitors. The instructors are also awesome! They focus a lot on technique and form which is important for this style of workout. Lastly, the community is great! They host summer Friday workouts where everyone socializes together afterwards. Love it! read more

Love this class. A friend recently put me on and I am totally hooked. Great way to switch up my workout routine and challenges my body so much. Great music as well which is always key! read more

I went here a few months ago on their intro offer and loved it! The space is a bit small but they use it well. The instructors spend a lot of time focusing on form, which I appreciate, and I always leave feeling like I worked hard! read more

SESSION is the best! Classes are always challenging, while being safe. Instructors are always so knowledgeable about technique and able to give variations for injuries. The workout itself is HIIT and leaves me feeling amazing! Such a great class. And Aussie run- what more could you ask for? read more

great class left me totally gassed (but feeling good). friendly staff and great instructors. new favorite!
