    I've been training with Jon for almost a year, and have had a remarkably positive experience. As…read moresomeone with a naturally skinny build and a fast metabolism, I've always struggled to gain muscle despite years of trying everything from HIIT to traditional weightlifting. Working against my own genetics always felt like an insurmountable challenge. When I started working with Jon, he helped me set realistic goals, put the fear and doubt behind me, and helped me build a plan that actually worked for my body and lifestyle. Sessions with Jon are fun, instructive, intense, and focused. In addition to being a great conversationalist and keeping things light, he is constantly providing clear instruction and pointers on all aspects of the session, from form to breathing to tips for endurance and nutrition. His holistic approach is well rounded and covers all of the bases. Ten months later, I'm proud to say I've gained 11 pounds of muscle, something I never thought possible. My old dress shirts no longer fit (the buttons are about ready to pop out), and I see noticeable muscle growth across my entire body. Beyond the physical results, I've gained a sense of confidence, discipline, and focus that's carried into other areas of my life. Having my partner and friends comment on my improved physique fills me with pride, and the fact that the benefits I've gained with Jon ripple far beyond the gym is a testament to his professionalism and effectiveness. Jon is both highly knowledgeable and genuinely encouraging. He pushes me when I need it, and somehow makes every session fun instead of purely a grind. He's personable, easy to be around, and creates an environment where I feel safe to challenge myself, fail, and try again. I would recommend Jon to absolutely anyone looking for a personal trainer. I can say with the utmost conviction that working with him has been one of the highlights of my year.

    I have been working with Jon now for 5 weeks. Three of those weeks I have worked with Jon on my…read moreown, and two of those weeks my girlfriend joined as well. I cannot recommend working with Jon enough and would like to emphasize three areas that have impressed me the most! First, Jon's more than ten years of experience show in every aspect of our work together. In creating a workout program for me and my girlfriend, Jon carefully listened to our goals and designed a program that would push us towards them. For example, I wanted to increase my upper body strength, get more definition in my arms, and increase my hip mobility. While I was expecting to do bunches of bicep curls, Jon has helped me understand the importance of working your entire body, particularly your lower body, and how doing so can help you build muscle all over. As a result, my workouts these days are varied, so I don't get bored or injured, but always helping push me towards my goals. He even does it without me noticing sometimes--like workouts I didn't know would help with hip flexibility but that have made a tremendous difference in my everyday life. Jon's experience also shows in the way he treats you. I am never "scared" to go workout with Jon. I know he will challenge me and make me lift heavier weights than the week before, and I know that I will leave sweating and exhausted. But, I also know that he is monitoring my progress and that he never wants to push me to a point where it's dangerous or where I am not comfortable. He's great at making adjustments where necessary, for example, sometimes he will give me a little bit longer of a break if I am particularly dying after an exercise. Second, Jon is focused on long term change and development. If you want results (e.g. significant weight loss), Jon can get you there, I'm sure, but I think his strength is that he takes a longer term approach. He doesn't want me to just get stronger and then be done with it. He wants me to understand why we are doing the exercises we are doing and why I should be eating the foods I am. He envisions our work together as creating long term change, which is what I want. Third, is that I actually do feel the difference our workouts and his nutritional guidance is making. I feel stronger and more confident. My shoulders, arms, and chest have grown. And, for the first time in a long time, I feel like I am progressing in my workouts. I used to continue to lift a certain weight longer than I should--mostly because I could do the reps I needed to do at that weight. But Jon picks what weights I do each week, which means I have no choice but to move up. Shockingly, I've kept pace with the increasing weights and am lifting more than I thought I could! It's an amazing boost to your week when you're hitting your goals and when you have someone pushing you and achieving them with you. Jon is excellent at both one-on-one training and at couples training. He is flexible with scheduling and attentive to COVID procedures. If you're looking to make a change, definitely check him out!

    You know those gyms that are full of steroids and surliness? This isn't one of them by any stretch…read more I'm in town for a week and needed a place to get some workouts in. I spoke with Bill, the owner, and he was very accommodating and helpful and said to come on over. Briana (sp?) at the front desk gave me a tour and showed me all of the amenities they have in their gym. It's not a huge space but it is very well organized and sparkling clean. My gym back home should see how this place is maintained. All of the equipment is in great shape, they have; free weights, several squat racks, dumbbells, a selection of machines, TRX setup (see picture) and some kettlebells for you hardcore masochists. They provide one-on-one personal training and from the interactions I saw with clients they have loyal followers. I would not hesitate to recommend this gym. They deserve 5 stars.

    Having been an old time iron pumping gym rat for years and years, I got away from training about…read moreten or so years ago when I starting building a house. Over that time, aside from gaining about 20 pounds and loosing a lot of muscle tone, I developed some bad back problems as well as very sore knees both of which were actually staring to interfer with my ability to do things around the house and keeping me from enjoying playing with my grandkids. So I decided to start training again on my own. I immediately started hurting myself... repeatedly! I know this sounds like a commercial but "Thats when I decided to try Success Studio!" In all seriousness, the team there, especially Jana, helped me get back into the training routine guiding me along and making certain that I not do anything stupid to hurt myself. That was last August. Its now January and I have lost ten pounds, my back is strong, and my knees are getting stronger. This just proves that, with the right trainer, anyone can get fit. I heardily recommend Success Studio for any one seriously wanting to get back into shape. These folks know what the're doing!

She keeps updated with…read moreGyrotonic advances by going to trainings and bringing specific adaptations for certain body parts that then globally affect my body. Gyrotonic is a superb system to address joint concerns and build flexibility and strength throughout the body. After menopause, recovering from injuries has been more complicated but Casey has been steadily and consistently helping me with patience and nudging me to go further than I would on my own. Very little feels sore after her workouts and it has been compatible with my PT and now yoga again finally! Besides that we laugh a lot! Call her up and give it a few visits and you may be hooked too. My body insists on going even if my head is saying you just need more cardio, and boom, I build up a sweat the next lesson!

In addition to my enthusiasm for the Gyrotonic method and Casey's instruction, another element that sets Movement Barn apart is the setting. The ambiance of The Movement Barn is calming and relaxing, The one on one session takes place in a small rustic barn. Views are of wild flowers and pastures nearby. Despite the proximity to downtown Charlottesville, you feel as if you have escaped into the countryside. The calm atmosphere allows teacher and client to focus on the exercises at hand without distraction. I enjoy every session and remain impressed with Casey's commitment to and knowledge of her craft.

    So after going to Soulcycle when I was home in NYC in December, I decided to give Purvelo a second…read morechance, and I'm glad that I did. The instructors and front desk reps are so friendly and took the time to get to know me at the cheer station for the 10 miler event last week and before/after the regular classes. I accidentally left my water bottle at my bike last night, and emailed the team. The owner, Kristin, was an angel and alerted the staff. One of the instructors and the front desk advised me of where the lost and found is and helped me figure out which one it was. Thank you for that because that bottle is expensive, lol I am literally sweating my fat away in these classes. I step on the scale every morning and noticed that I have lost three pounds this week. When I went last year, I lost ten pounds in about three weeks. I also feel "refreshed" and like a brand new person after my classes. After my contract ends with another boutique gym in the area and if I stay in the Cville area (I'm out of the area 5 days a week/12 hours a day for work right now), I will alternate monthly between going here and the other gyms in the area (I like to mix up fitness routines because I get bored easily). Parking is still a little tricky in the evenings, but since I signed up for the early morning classes, it has been a breeze (knocks on wood). I'm not a morning person, so not wanting to go back to sleep after classes taken at this studio is pretty awesome. That's how great the instructors are. Please do not change, Purvelo.

    I have to preface this review with coming from REV Cycle studio in Baltimore, I have high standards…read morefor cycling studios. I was pleasantly surprised with this studio! I was in town for one weekend and wanted to try the studio and they kindly offer a complimentary free first class. I came for an early Sunday morning class and was greeted with very kind staff members happy to help or answer questions. The class itself was different than I expected, but still an overall great workout. They are very Soul Cycle like with the combinations of upper body crunches and push ups style dance moves, which was the one draw back for me. I am more into the hardcore HIIT style bike work outs and am not coordinated enough to mix in the crunches and moves along with fast cycling. The instructor, Robyn, was great and very energetic and kept the energy high the entire class. Overall I would come back to this studio to try a different classes and instructors!

No other gym offers such a consistent no cost workout. So I think I speak for myself and the other burn members when I say it's addictive, the good addiction. :). So here's the runs down, 45 minute group exercise that changes daily. You don't get bored, you never know what to expect (except for a exceptional workout). The trainers are amazing and offer support throughout the sessions and offer weekly focus meetings (also free) to help with your progress. I can't get enough this place. I highly recommend them. Definitely check them out, if you don't trust reviews go see for a 14 day FREE trail... they are that confident you'll love it!

I originally tried Burn Boot Camp a month after it arrived in the area, October 2019, so I've been obsessed with returning ever since. I recently signed up for their new member 4 week Ignite Your Life and I have no regrets. The music is up beat and the workout is always different, yet challenging. I love that its full body - you're able to get in your cardio and weight training all in one - as I've always been the one in the gym weight training or taking a conditioning class at the gym which is now made so much easier. The trainers are all super friendly, helpful, and encourage you (in a non-pushy manner) to push to your max. Burn Boot Camp is the ultimate package for a gym!
