Naturally Awesome…read more I've been going to the same gym for 4 years and they recently closed. Looking for a new gym is a real pain, there are so many choices and it's not an easy decision to make. CoMotion is unlike any gym I've ever been to, in a good way. When I first started working out I was looking for more flexibility as one of my primary goals. CoMo fits the bill for this - their group workouts have many standards like push-ups but they utilize "natural movements" and pepper in circuits with jumping, lifting, throwing and catching. The workouts are not easy - there is a dynamic warmup, then you do some circuits, with some stretching at the end, totalling around 60 minutes. My heart rate monitor shows that I'm putting out more effort and burning more calories than the "regular" group fitness classes I've been doing for years so that's way cool too. Their classes are scheduled at convenient times and the staff is super helpful. They offer a free 7-day trial so that made it super easy to try out before committing to extended visits. If it doesn't suck, it's not worth doing.

However, every instructor has found ways to adapt certain exercises and movements to reduce my pain. Some instructors have more intense flows and some are more light intensity, but I'm starting to figure out who I like or who I want when I want to challenge myself! Would totally recommend!

I can't say enough good things about her and the things she's doing at Soul. She's a top notch trainer and is just an all around great person. Her workouts are always challenging and tuned to your needs. In addition to personal training, I've done a few of the other classes. On Tuesday's Kellen M does a Primal Movement class. If you've never done Primal (MovNat, etc.) then you don't know what you're missing. This is truly "functional" fitness at it's best. On Fridays Marina H does a strech class that is phenomenal. If I didn't already have another contract gym membership, I'd just stick with Soul. Their overall schedule is well-rounded with strengh, yoga, kettlebells and other movements. They also puts on a bunch of community activities like Maker's Markets and fun events like roller skating (if only I could). Do your body a favor and give them a try!

I've been coming to Soul Collective for maybe the last 6 months - I trialed them first on Classpass…read moreand since then, bought class-packs and have been attending 1-3 classes weekly between Strength Fundamentals, HIIT/Core, Soul Movement, and Mobility/Flexibility, and slow flow yoga. I really have appreciated Eileen's guidance and how much emphasis there is on movement, function, and form. The workouts always have modifications, and I appreciate that everyone moves at their own pace (and that moving quickly is rarely the emphasis). Since I've been coming, I feel (and look!) stronger, more comfortable using gym equipment, and increased awareness of how my body moves. I like that there is a wide variety of offerings throughout the day, a diversity of ages and backgrounds in clientele, and a little bit of something for everyone. There are events, like an annual Brewer's tailgate, in addition to hosting different practitioners of fitness/nutrition/wellness. I think that Eileen's has got something going on that more gyms could look to and that Soul Collective is worth giving a try if you're looking for a gym that values movement and holistic health!

I was told about this place from my friend Nicole. She said she purchased an online deal, but I…read moredecided to go through Yelp. I purchased 5 classes for 29.99. If you sign up for class, tell them Megan Lamb sent you! ;) So, the process is such that, you can't just show up for your first class. You have to call and schedule an intake/one-on-one sort of thing. Sometimes they are booked out, but I was able to get my one-on-on within a week. Okay, so they're supposed to call you a day before to remind you of your workout and tell you to come a half hour earlier. This didn't happen so I showed up late. They were friendly and accommodating about it. So, when you come in a half hour early, they sit with you and talk to you about your goals. Then you workout with the class who has a main instructor, but you're also with a personal instructor. This instructor focuses on you so that you can learn the techniques and they can answer questions. After the workout, they sit you down to see how you like it and discuss the cost of the membership. I'm not going to lie, it's steep. However they sort of tack on an extra month, plus classes are unlimited, as well as a few other small perks like special classes and free gloves. You either can afford it or you can't, but honestly? If you go to class, it's worth it. They add you to their Facebook group to introduce you to everyone. This is also how they try to maintain a family/community feel. You can either choose to participate or not. I keep up with it because they'll have announcements and reminders, so it's a good group to be a part of. It's also good for accountability reasons. Everyone is super supportive, encouraging and helpful. What I like? The atmosphere is friendly, welcoming and motivating. The workout itself is extremely challenging, but it's for all age groups, shapes and sizes. Every type of person is there and there are always new people. You can tell that there are cliques; obviously there are people who are friends and/or who have been going a while. They try to make it feel like a family. And if you go regularly enough, you start to feel apart of it all. I've never felt left out. The music is fun to workout to. You can tell they put time into making playlists that will motivate you. This is important because music matters. Especially when you hate your life like I do during the warm-up. Classes are an hour long and they kick your butt. This is a lot like a boot camp class, but for me, way more fun. I mean, come on, who doesn't want to punch some bags?! It's a great, stress relieving workout. Since I have started, they have added more classes, especially in the morning. I don't have a problem with the schedule because there's always a class that I am able to attend. This has been the only thing that has gotten me motivated lately. I think anyone could benefit from this type of workout. It's seriously badass and a confidence/self esteem booster. Cons for me? Partner work is my least favorite part of the class because I am ridiculously uncoordinated, however it still can be fun. I mostly just feel bad for my partner for being so terrible. Also, knowing your left from right is hard! Staff are friendly and out-going. Members are nice. Studio is clean, as well as the bathroom facilities. There's a parking lot with plenty of space; it's right next to Kohl's. What are you waiting for? And what do you have to lose?! Go give it a try!
