For anyone that has been it is easy to explain. If you have…read morenot been and there is any question let me answer it: Orange Theory will change your life. There is nothing like it. And there is nothing in the world like the team assembled here at this particular facility. I have trained as an athlete my whole life. College springboard diver and competitive cyclist. Later a university dive coach. I spent six months in Lauderdale for work and was eager to try OTF. I had been, and still do, Lagree pilates for seven years. My first OTF class I was greeted with smiles and a genuine enthusiasm for me as a person. The treatment I go went way beyond that which would be given a prospective client. I was walked thrtthe methodology and process. I asked questions and they were answered in a positive and educated manner. My first workout was with Duyane. It was absolutely amazing. It was hard. And I mean hard. But I made it hard with his help. I know if I had an injury it would have been worked with. I know of I were able to meet a certain level it would be OK. I knew that whatever my age, fitenss level or goal it would be respected. I've seen people of every level of fitenss. Every one is treated as a member of the team. A part of something larger. It is absolutely inclusive. Being an athlete I thought I had plateaued well before OTF. I was wrong. My cardio hit new levels. My cycling picked up 2mph average speed. I lost body fat like I was in college again! I started at about 14% body fat. I got down to 7%!!!! I looked good. I felt good. I did a class there today as I was in Lauderdale on a quick trip. I walked in and Duyane saw me and after a year of not being there he ran out, asked me how I was doing and remembered my name and gave me a hug. He is a special man. He cares about you. YOU! My wife came to visit and she did it with me. She had trepidation about it. She had never been "a runner". She was hooked within minutes of her first class. Over a year later, on this Sunday June 2nd she is leaving on the AIDS Life cycle from S.F. to L.A. She trained on her bike, pilates and YES two days a week OTF! She LOVES it. Since I've turned countless friends on to it and they all say the same things: "I never thought I'd like a group workout". "I thought it was just about running". "It has changed my life"! "I lOVE IT"! Josh has managed to put a team of true excellence together. Duyane, David, Genesis and everyone there are the best at what they do. But what they do is support their clients in believing in themselves. That they are living their best. Thank you OTF. I do it twice a week in Culver City, CA. But today it was great to come home. Even if for only an hour.

Mayte is absolutely amazing, she's so caring, genuinely gets to know you, and truly cares about helping you become stronger and better. She will DEFINITELY push you, but in the best way possible! The energy in this studio is incredible. Everyone is so welcoming, supportive. You can tell how much Mayte cares about what she does and about every person who walks through the door. The workouts are challenging, the environment is motivating, and the results speak for themselves. I couldn't recommend this studio enough!

It was awesome and been hooked ever since ! His classes are High intensity, high energy and a mix of workouts ! You're not ever going to be doing the same workout twice ! The classes are fun, with good people, and everyone is showing up for the same reason; to get RESULTS! He will push you to your limits or even past that - even when you doubt yourself ! There's been many times in between sets where you want to give up and he encourages (and yells, haha) for you to dig deeper ! Great energy too! He's Always considerate of any injuries or things you are not comfortable to modify your workouts. It doesn't matter what level you are in the group Bootcamp- beginner, intermediate, or advanced- everyone shows up to work out, do better, be a healthier version for themselves. It's not a competition, but a family growing together here ! I do a monthly group Bootcamp which is so reasonably priced. There's small group sessions or private as well. Monthly group Bootcamp you can go to as many classes as you can or body allows ;) - there's sometimes beach workouts he puts on Saturday mornings and fun classes like a bounce class and dance. I've been coming for almost a year. working out here has been a great mix of cardio and weight training. I can overall feel a difference and areas that I have toned really well. Some areas - I'm still working on - I like to eat - LOL ! We have a group WhatsApp chat that he encourages his members to post their meals or questions about workouts or foods that he can respond to or just to have group support and motivation sharing recipes and ideas. In addition, he does youth boxing. I cannot even begin to tell you the confidence my son has gained just from the past 6+months from doing boxing. We want him to learn respect and self defense in case ever needed in this crazy world we are living in. His interactions with the kids are great! Giving them real life practice to what's outside and making them learn their best stride. Mikey does a lot for the community and the youth too. Puts on events and also attends to them too. Puts his brand out there to be seen and noticed. Has the pride and no shame to of where he was and his journey to where he is now. Thanks for the greatest push - the investment of yourself ! Come check this place out !

Corey came directly to our home and arrived fully equipped with a wide range of instruments for fitness torture (in the best way possible). He asked good questions prior to the workout about our fitness levels and types of workouts we prefer, and then we got to work. We focused on HIIT circuits with weights and cardio integrated throughout. Corey was quick to gauge how we were performing with the movements, and then modify up or down depending on our comfort/level of challenge. We left Florida knowing that we had gotten a great workout, and can't wait to see Corey again when we're in town!

Anthony is hands down the best trainer I've had, after trying work outs on my own, LA Fitness PT and Crossfit. He has extensive training expertise and is constantly up-to-date with the latest trends through continuing study. Safety, proper form, and efficiency are the priority on his workouts, not half-ass movements to up a score in the board. Workouts are constantly changing, you'll never get bored doing the same routine over and over again. Sessions include personal training, group workouts, boot camps, kickboxing, strength training, cardio, functional fitness, etc. I know there's more specialized and advanced training on a competitive level that he provides as well. I've trained with him long enough to see his other client's progress and results, on a wide range of ages and fitness levels. As with any fitness program, you have to commit, but it's well worth it. The installations are very clean and well maintained. Showers available. 100% recommended.

From the very first minute, every worry melted away. The staff greeted us warmly, Sensei Twigs personally introduced himself and made both my son, daughter and me feel completely at ease, and the environment was welcoming, clean, and full of positive energy. The class itself blew us away. Sensei Twigs is a master at working with beginners; he explained everything clearly, kept the kids engaged the entire time, and somehow taught real karate techniques while slipping in lessons on respect, focus, and leadership without it ever feeling like a lecture. The kids bowed, said "yes sir," helped each other, and left with huge smiles (and a little sweat!). My son, who is normally shy in new settings, was beaming and couldn't stop talking about how much fun he had. As first-time martial arts parents, we especially appreciated how patient and encouraging everyone was. There was zero pressure, just pure enthusiasm and genuine care. If you've been on the fence about trying karate for your child (or even yourself), this is the place to start. Twigs Karate made our very first experience perfect. Highly recommend! Thank you, Sensei Twigs!

This time, a woman in my 50's, working through menopausal…read moresymptoms, with a weak pelvic floor, recovering from a reverse shoulder replacement and overweight, I possibly had unrealistic expectations of a "trainer" that would encompass my personal heath needs. I also wanted guidance on whole, clean foods that energized my body and combated my menopausal triggers. I needed to start strength training. I was concerned about longevity of life. I was coming to Florida from a different state and found Nicole through reviews on YELP. I am so glad I contacted her. This is the first YELP review I have ever taken the time to write. She is an empowerment and wellness coach. She holds a plethora of certifications, is an author (I read her wonderfully insightful books) and is continuously expanding her knowledge for the betterment of her clients. Most importantly, she personally had experience with overcoming a fair amount of things I also sought help with. I could connect with her, I trusted her and I am walking away with positive results. If you are a female going through menopause and want to understand how to move your body by utilizing the proper form and techniques through weight training, while incorporating a meal plan that compliments your goals, Nicole will help you get there. She also helped me through my fears and anxieties that kept me in the same unhealthy life cycle that I kept repeating. My expectations were clearly surpassed. My only regret is that I did not start sooner with Nicole. Thank you for your guidance and patience with me!
