I was (am) new to CrossFit but all the coaches and staff have been welcoming and understanding, taking their time to explain the proper technique and making sure I felt comfortable.

In addition to CrossFit, they offer other types of group classes, boxing and even yoga. They offer many time slots, so you will likely find one that works for you.

(and have also…read moretried their Southie and Eastie locations) I actually first found them through their monthly free community class, which I'm not sure if they still do but should bring back if they don't! They have a great variety of classes and times. my favorites are Strength: Full Body and Yoga Sculpt. At Wellesley I've only gone to Kate, Carolina, & Cams classes but they've all been incredible instructors. Love the dark, color-changing studio, comfy mats, and well-stocked bathrooms. Front desk staff is always SO nice too! Highly recommend!!

4.5 - so close to 5 if not for the painfully blasting music. Another day, another way too detailed…read moregroup fitness class review! PRE-CLASS: I booked via ClassPass and they automatically slot you into one of the four front-most bikes closest to the instructor. Thinking that the spots would be way too close to the speakers, I opted for something a little further away in the first row. Shout-out to the wonderful girl working the front desk on Saturday morning, who helped me set up my bike to the right seat and handlebar height and also got me a pair of shoes when the pair I brought (SPD-SL) turned out to not be compatible with the pedals. CLASS: Pretty standard cycling class, heavy on the choreography. It took me a good chunk of the class to be able to follow along and try to match the moves with the beat, but it's also totally fine to just pedal without the moves. (That said, if you're more accustomed to outdoor cycling with greater resistance, the super high cadences where you're essentially bouncing up and down in your seat is going to feel extremely silly.) A much bigger issue: the music is SO loud. Like painfully, blasting loud. Next time, I'm going to bring ear plugs. INSTRUCTOR: I liked the playlist and I thought Allie did a good job of mixing up the various cadences. Also seriously impressed by how much time she spent on the bike with us while shouting encouragement and cues - I was out of breath just following along. Lots of regulars. I was a newbie and not expecting her to go out of her way to say hi, especially when the class was crowded, but at one point she asked, a few minutes into class, if anyone was new and one person raised their hand and ... that was it. COMPETITIVE: Nope. The bikes don't even have the monitors showing RPM, time, or distance, so you can truly zone out. On the other hand, if you're into stats or tracking progress other than by feel, this was an obvious absence. FACILITIES: Lockers, with cubbies to put your shoes. I counted four showers with toiletries. However, the place on a weekend morning was an absolute zoo with multiple classes starting/ending at the same time. I imagine there would've been a line for a shower and opted for a stinky, sweaty car ride back home. PARKING: Lots of street options and, right behind the studio, the Waban Street parking lot, with dirt-cheap parking. Download the Passport app so you can pay w/o quarters. OVERALL: 9/10. Good for beginners and regulars alike. If you're at all self-conscious of the dance moves, the bikes in the back row are a good idea (but more importantly, no one is paying attention to anything except themselves so you might as well have fun).

Minuses: People sitting on their phones, unwilling to share equipment or let others work in. Afternoons the gym is full of kids from adjacent private school who bring a surly, low-energy and non-serious vibe that detracts from a good workout.

I've been to both the Boston and Wellesley locations (depending on if I want to take the T, or if it's not rush hour it's easy to get to Wellesley), and I have to say that the Wellesley location is esthetically much nicer than the Boston location, which isn't surprising since it's bound to be more spacious and open. This is a beautiful studio with a separate sitting area, mirrors, large windows, and hard wood floors. I've had a number of instructors and they have all been great. It's nice that they can add their own spin on the workout, and while they work your whole body, some definitely have an emphasis on legs or abs. The 45 minutes go by FAST since you're constantly switching up the movement. It's hard and you're pretty much destined to be sore the next day, but definitely not in a bad way. The workouts are all able to be modified so these classes are good for just about anyone. If you have never been on a megareformer I definitely recommend checking it out! They look daunting at first but the instructors talk you through each position and whatnot, so it's not like you're looking around wondering what's going on.

I asked very nicely if they could take it in the hall or common area, it's posted as a rule not to talk on the floor. He looked at me like he wanted to kill me and kept talking. Spencer, a trainer, was about 10 feet away. I asked him if he could please tell him to not take a call here. He said he couldn't. He could do it later. I said I don't understand, it would take 3 seconds to ask, you just talked to me longer than that, just ask him please. He said he couldn't, in a way that seemed like teasing, like he was tying to make me feel petty for asking. I went downstairs and complained to the person at the desk. When I went back upstairs Spencer came right up to me and said he asked him and he hung up the phone. It was obvious now he had been teasing me, because he came right up to me to try to patch it over. No one likes to be ridiculed. This is the first time something like this happened. There is a man there who stares at people. A few weeks ago he walked up to me and yelled in my face when I asked him not to stare at me. I told him to please move away from me, he didn't. I mentioned it to the spikey haired guy at the desk who said "Oh ya, he's does that a lot, I know exactly who you're talking about." Nothing has been done, and this guy continues to roam around there looking to pick a fight. They need to take care of members. Something is wrong here. I'm leaving.

A couple of the negative reviewers also seem to fall into the "anything less than five stars is one star" approach to Yelp reviewing, but the negative ones don't begin to describe the studio where I've been going for the past year. (And if you're going to attack an employee about their hairstyle, maybe you should grow up a bit before you write another review.) In my experience, the staff has been universally friendly, helpful, and attentive. The coaches have different styles ranging from fairly laid-back to hyperkinetic, so if you have a strong preference for an approach in how you're coached you'll have to find your favorites. All the coaches I've worked with, however, are clearly trying to become better at their jobs and frequently ask for feedback on how they're doing. (If I have an overall suggestion, it would be that all the coaches offer more frequent advice on proper form for the weight exercises. Some do this regularly; others almost not at all.) I enjoy the variety in the classes--every day is something a little different--plus they always provide exercise alternatives for anyone dealing with injuries. My goal is overall fitness--not bulking up or massive cardio gains--and OT definitely delivers. The studio is clean if small (the changing area can get crowded between classes). The equipment always seems to be well-maintained, especially when you consider how much it gets used on a daily basis. I'd probably give OT four stars overall because of some issues in variability in how the franchises get run. (Checking the Reddit forums, it's pretty clear that the franchisees have a fair amount of leeway in day-to-day operations.) It's not a problem overall for me--and certainly not the fault of the staff--but it may explain why some people give Wellesley lower ratings since how things are run here may differ from other studios.
