I'm coming up on my one year mark and I can honestly say it has been one of the best things I've ever done for myself! I never felt great about any gyms I've belonged to in the past. I'm not a huge group class person, and personal training has always been $$$$$. Enter: semi-personal training! Basically, each of the trainers here has a few clients at one time, but it still feels, well... personal. You get your own workout, there are just others around you doing theirs, and it actually adds a fun element of community at the same time. Instead of working out so hard that you can barely walk the next morning, the approach here is more reasonable and based on intentional repetition vs. killing yourself. I typically do three circuits made up of 3-4 exercises, 3-4 times each. My muscle growth has been slow but extremely consistent, and I'm finally seeing the exact results I've always wanted. Working out three times per week at Blue Ocean has kept me feeling so strong and healthy. As a bonus, when I have to travel for work, I can pause my membership--and they even give me workouts to do on the road. The trainers are fantastic people, and the clientele is great, too. I look forward to belonging to Blue Ocean for a long time!

DONT GO TO F45 DARDENNE PRAIRE SOUTH…read more I shouldn't have to be a little keyboard warrior about this but I'm not getting heard any other way. About a year and a half ago I bought a year membership with F45 Dardenne prairie south location. In July of 2023 I called to cancel with the owner Greg. He assured me this was no problem and that my account would be canceled. Come August I was charged again. When I called Greg he said he had no recollection of me calling and that he usually says he has people email and then cancels 30 days from that. I reluctantly agreed and sent an email. October, November and December have come around and I have gotten charged for all of these months. I have tried to call and email multiple times and have sometimes gotten an answer from Greg Cenatiempo saying he would work on it. He currently owes me 556 dollars. Now being more vocal about it I have heard that this location and his rock hill location have this problem frequently and that I shouldn't expect to get my money back because when he has to refund people he gets charged $25. I didn't want to post on the internet but it seems I won't be heard any other way. I have messaged other managers saying that Greg is the one who deals with memberships. All I want is my account canceled and my money refunded. I have email receipts to prove all my communications with the f45 email and absolutely no response. DO NOT GO TO THE F45 DARDENNE PRAIRE SOUTH LOCATION.

I really wanted to like this place…read more.. As big as it looks on the outside, I felt kind of claustrophobic inside because all the machines were so bunched up together. It definitely attracts a specific crowd. I didn't feel intimidated because I'm so used to going to different gyms having moved around a lot, but I could see how one may be turned off by the vibe. I personally appreciated the metal music because it made me want to push myself, but not for everyone. I went with a friend because she wanted to check it out and she did end up signing up out of convenience being close by her work but she ended up cancelling. There was a woman who was just working out that offered to show us how to use a machine I'd never seen before. She was very friendly and so happened to be an instructor so we knew we were being taught correctly. It wasn't as crowded as club fitness, but definitely more serious gym goers. Take what you will from this!

Found in the little business center in the THF Valley by the hilton, F45 is a new workout brand to the STL area. The facility is large, with cubbies and sweat towels, along with a few showers for those on the go. Chelsea & Levi clearly care about growing their own community of happy, supportive, enthusiastic members that know each other. Out of 5 workouts I've taken, they've both been there, cheering us on, checking our form, high fiving between stations. The workouts: Alternating between cardio and resistance days, each workout varies from the prior of that same format, moving quickly between sets and stations. For someone new to working out, the number of stations and where to go next may seem intimidating, but there's a video screen showing each move, and where to go next, plus they show the moves before starting. For the seasoned athlete such as myself, I've enjoyed the mix of equipment used in New ways. Trx, pull up bars, rowers, ropes, and even sledgehammers have been some recent accessories I've enjoyed. The equipment/workouts can all be modified for whatever level of fit someone's at, but my recommendation is to know some basic weightlifting terms and form before trying F45 - not that you can't learn them during class, but so you can max the time during each station working instead of learning. So far, the classes have been fun, challenging, & welcoming.

Somehow, my trainer even knew about the Jan 6 resurrection before it even happened. Then there was COVID-19, with claims of it being a "plandemic" and the refusal to close the gym per county directive, and refusal to get vaccinated or wear a mask in public. I was able to ignore all of this as I found it to be quite entertaining and often very funny. Over time, however, it became less funny, and a problematic distraction to a good training session. I do, however, recommend the CrossFit philosophy of fitness, and this gym is one of the best-equipped in the state.
