My favorite gym that I've been apart of yet. I love that each week there are varied classes…read morefocusing on strength and cardio. I've attended 371 camps so far and counting! I love the trainers, the times, the workouts, the staff, and the other members. It's a super welcoming environment and the trainers always show you a modification. With anything in life, you get what you put in. So if you show up consistently and make an effort to know others, you'll end up building a wonderful and healthy community for yourself! I remember one my first classes the trainer Lauren showed us how to do a pull up on the rig. I said HA YEAH RIGHT CAN'T DO THAT, and Lauren immediately said "yes you can" and stayed with me to help me through it. Guess who doesn't need help anymore? ME! If you're not sure, just try it out. And say Jess O sent you we can get a referral discount!

Joining Burn Boot Camp - Danbury was one of the best decisions I've made for myself (and my…read morefamily). I have never been consistent with exercise. I didn't grow up playing sports, and every time I tried something new, it only lasted a short while. My sister-in-law had been a member in Georgia for years, and when Burn finally opened in Connecticut, I signed up during a promo. I've been there ever since!!! This May, I'll be celebrating two years as a proud Burn Danbury member! The trainers are incredible. They push me, encourage me, and believe in me -- sometimes even more than I believe in myself. They know what I'm capable of and motivate me to reach it. They are my inspiration, they are my accountability partners, they are friends. The people are just as amazing. Moms like me, married couples, dads, college students, high school students, retirees -- all working hard to be a better version of themselves. We live off high fives as we move from station to station and we leave every single camp sweaty, spent, and SO happy we showed up! One of the biggest bonuses for so many of us is the free childcare included with membership. On Saturdays, my husband and I get to work out together without worrying about taking turns so someone is watching the kids. He joined a month after I did -- also not a "gym person." Now, in our 40s, we are in better shape than we've ever been. What truly sets Burn apart, though, is the community. The friendships we've built over the past two years extend beyond camp. We stay after to do "just one more" exercise challenge together, we care about each other's goals, we cheer each other on to hit personal records, we even meet up monthly to hang out and get to know each other off the gym floor. It's truly more than a gym -- it's a community I am forever grateful for. If you're on the fence, take the leap. You won't regret it. And if you take that leap, come say hi!

SoulCycle Greenwich is LIFE!…read more If you've never checked out this studio rest assured that you're gonna LOVE IT. The desk staff are the kindest, sweetest, cheeriest people around. They are there to help you and they don't mind doing so at all so go ahead and ask away! The locker space is phenomenal. You won't be bumping into people or knocking into anyone. There's plenty of space for everyone. The room itself is large, but everyone is tightly packed in. Don't let that intimidate you- once you start riding you'll forget all about it and you'll feel like you're truly riding with your tribe. As far as instructors go, do yourself and go to L! She'll demolish you and you'll love every second of it. Her playlists are killer and her energy is F*****G infectious.

You will use your machine in ways you could never have imagined. The classes move quickly but you have the benefit of screens all around the studio demonstrating each move. Additionally the instructors are literally super human, cueing each move in rapid succession while making sure everyone has proper form. Whatever Julia is making, it's not enough, this woman deserves a raise!! I've taken approximately one million classes in my life and never have I witnessed an instructor care so deeply about form and provide one on one guidance while trying to run the class (my brave husband required more attention than the average bear). This studio is high energy and for all levels!

I started coming to this gym because of the close location to my new office. Plenty of parking!…read moreWith Covid you have to schedule an appointment on the app for entry. You are allowed in 30 min prior to appointment time and have 90 min from your appointment time. The towels were initially behind the desk but now are out on the floor and in the locker rooms. You have to get your temperature checked before you enter. The locker rooms have plenty of lockers but I didn't notice any social distancing signs or blocked lockers like other clubs. The steam room isn't open yet but there are showers available. You are encouraged to wipe down the equipment before and after you use it. The space in the gym is pretty large especially with limitations. They are blocking other equipment, and the only thing that bothered me is people doing cardio with no masks, in every other equinox I've been in you have to wear a mask at all times except when taking a sip of water. I'll still be coming here, likely doing my cardio outside instead.

I want to start off saying that I generally really like Equinox. I have been a member here on and…read moreoff, probably going back to 2010, but decided to part ways with it for good recently. For why that is I will get into further in the review but I want to point out some positives first. The gym is very clean, and organized, the staff are wonderful and friendly, and the people that go here, mostly follow gym etiquette and are fine. So what's the problem? Well for starters the gym has not really changed much going back 15 years. Yea, they updated the gym flooring recently, but the equipment is still the same. There used to be coolers of cucumber or lemon water that you could use that no longer exists. The gym recently had a $15 price increase a couple of months ago, and I know what you're thinking. A rich guy like you making a big deal over $15? No, but when I pay close to $300 a month I want to be able to exercise when I go to a gym, and therein lies the problem. This place is packed, SO PACKED that I don't care how much I'm paying a month for a membership I want to be able to exercise. I generally go around 9-10am on weekdays but it's a zoo. I just love going to a gym and having to wait forever for equipment, thus making a normal workout last 30-60 minutes longer due to waiting. Do yourself a favor and don't even bother going on Saturday mornings around that time, or on a holiday weekday where everyone has the day off. I've walked in on days like that and you can't even see the gym equipment with all the people floating around. There have been multiple times after walking into that I just turned around and walked out. How can anyone exercise in that kind of environment? At that point it becomes more of a social scene, much like Lifetime in Harrison, where people don't actually go to workout, they go to be seen and mingle while their nannies are taking care of the kids, and their chauffer is dropping them off in their Bentleys. Even going in the afternoon at around 3pm is much busier than it has any right to be now and I can't imagine what the rush around 5-6pm would be like. There is a lot of good to be had in this gym if they actually capped their memberships or maybe expanded their gym into the super secret $10k a year private fitness area that absolutely no one uses, but as of right now for the price I can't recommend it if you actually care to work out. As it stands this place is only good for exercising your patience.

I started training with Madison two months after my third baby was born. After having 3 pregnancies…read morein 5 years, my body was NOT feeling right. I had lost a ton of muscle, added a bunch of fat, and my posture had suffered. Initially I planned to train with Madison for 6 weeks to get myself back on track, but it's now 5 months later and I still see her weekly. I can not believe the impact that slow motion strength training has had on my body. I have gotten so much of my strength back and even developed muscles that have been neglected all of my life, which has enabled me to add some cardio and vinyasa yoga. My posture has gotten significantly better despite the fact that I'm still nursing and work at a computer most of the time, thanks to the series of exercises that Madison designs for me. I've lost almost 20 pounds, and definitely converted a bunch of fat to muscle. My butt and thighs are so much tighter than they used to be (sorry if that's TMI!) All in all, it's an incredible workout in that the results are very noticeable and the time commitment is tiny. That said, you DO have to be dedicated. Madison will ask you to push yourself really, really hard. Sometimes in the middle of workouts, all I can think is "Why am I doing this???" But then I remind myself that I just need to give it my all for 30 minutes, which really isn't that much. By the time I finish the workout, I'm absolutely exuberant as I walk out of the gym feeling strong and like I'm standing taller and more confidently. Usually I'm really sore for a day or two and then I start getting really excited for my next session....it's addictive to feel as good as it makes you feel :)

Beware: Hidden Policies, Poor Availability & Zero Accountability…read more I'm writing this review as a heads-up to anyone considering this studio. When I first signed up, the front desk clearly told me I was only committing to a three-month subscription and could decide whether to renew after that. That sounded fair--so I signed up. Four months after I stopped attending, I realized they had continued charging me $211.64 per month without a single courtesy call, check-in, or even a reminder. When I reached out, I was told the subscription automatically renews and requires 30 days' notice to cancel. This was never made clear upfront. It's sneaky, misleading, and feels like a deliberate cash grab. On top of that, their class availability is trash. There's a massive gap in the middle of the day, and all the decent class times fill up fast--making it nearly impossible to attend consistently, even if you wanted to. That lack of flexibility is a huge problem for anyone with a normal schedule. I've had far better results doing free Pilates classes at home on YouTube. If you're looking for quality, accessible instruction without the shady fine print, I highly recommend Move with Nicole and Issa Welly Pilates. Both are fantastic and totally free. Save your money. Save yourself the frustration. There are much better options out there that respect both your schedule and your wallet.
