I've been here a number of times for the Friday and Saturday morning workout classes with Lawrence, using ClassPass. (It costs very few credits, which is always great!) I know that no matter when I go, Lawrence always leads a challenging and well rounded workout. With class names like "HIIT 2.0" and "Strong AF", you know you'll enter a tough and rewarding experience. The gym itself is huge, with plenty of weight machines, treadmill and bikes. You do need to wear a mask to enter, and you used to have to keep it on the entire time you were there during the height of the COVID pandemic, but I noticed during my most recent visit this morning that some people had their masks off while exercising and walking between machines and areas. There's a room next to the general weight room for turf like training, and another room in the back of the gym where the group workouts take place. When I went this morning, I saw they had remodeled the space to create one for a separate boxing gym. Outside of the clear gate they set up for the boxing gym, they have rowing machines, treadmills, boxes and a rig set up for regular use (and in our case, grotto workout use). The classes incorporate a lot of CrossFit exercises and structuring, but there are no barbells involved to grunt lift. Think dumbbells for chest flys and bicep curls, kettlebells for snatches and swings, rowers for cardio, boxes for, well, box jumps and pull-up steps and medicine balls for wall balls (which I have a love hate relationship with). If you have CrossFit experience, great, and if you don't, not to worry, because Lawrence goes over and demonstrated all of the movements involved in each round. The group workouts have been very small so that we can space out, used our own equipment and get good attention and correction on form from Lawrence. He does a great job of holding everyone accountable and pushing everyone to do their best exercises with good form and speed. The workout is pretty much over 45 minutes long, so the cool down is typically brief. I recommend you take some time afterwards to do some extra stretching, because it's highly likely that you'll feel the soreness within the same day. There are only 1-2 paper towel and cleaner bottle stations, so I ended up walking to the weight room and back to get a paper towel with cleaner fluid to wipe down my mat and the other equipment I used. This gym is always popular when I go, so I hope people are being reminded to clean their equipment, since we weren't after our workout. But bring your own towel and water bottle, and find a lot of hard exercising people and motivation to get that workout done! read more

First time in this gym to visit Dr. Rob PT (physical therapist) since recently I've been experiencing some pain from a sports injury. He was very informative and very professional and the gym was huge because it's a warehouse that includes a boxing ring, all types of machines, squatting and deadlifting equipment, cardio machines, and everything you need for bodybuilding and powerlifting! The memberships start off at $100 a month I believe. P.S- I saw Jake Paul with his crew haha. read more

This gym is located in downtown miami, they have their own parking and there is also street parking available. They have boxing, hiit and cycling classes during the week. They also offer personal training or you can become a member to use their equipment. Staff was really nice, facilities were good and they have a waiting area with a couch where you can buy snacks if you need. They also have lockers to put your things while working out. I went for the hiit class but we ended up doing more like a crossfit wod which was fine with me because the instructor was taking the time to explain and assist when needed. We had to run around the block which I was not too happy about but the area is pretty calm with not too many cars or people walking around so it wasn't that bad. I would like to try their boxing and cycling classes! read more

I must say, as a former employee and now a member, I'm very happy with Miami Shores location. This gym has been a home since I arrived to Miami and I'm very thankful for all the seasons of life I've lived through being here! Grateful for everyone who made this home! You know who you are! read more

Elev8tion Fitness - Los Shore - Gyms Near Me - Miami, Florida

Unfortunately this place is on my "don't ever enroll again list" loved the southbeach location and even with the equipment being older or just kinda not plentiful it worked. Saw some of their machines were out of order for a while and never get fixed. And I had to cancel my menebership because I moved off the beach, simple. Instead they keep charging , I cancel , charging , I cancel at a different location it's been 2 years and now I'm getting emails about going to collection for money owed ina. Gym I don't even attend and they make you scan in so they can check I have not been there. I have seen the owner go off on people and like our people online being mean and very off putting but I canceled and now I can't do anything it's the holidays and it's crazy how it's gone on this long and I called the collections number and everything and it won't stop. read more

This gym is a vibe. It's a little expensive but if you want a gym to motivate you and where everyone has the same goals, this gym is for you

Awesome gym and exceptional equipment. They have the training equipment that other gyms don't have. The owner & employees are all awesome. I just don't see the point of paying $100 for a gym with zero amenities included. When it comes down to the essentials & necessities of lifting weights, other gyms are just as good and cost a fraction of the price and have amenities included. And it's a mission to cancel your membership. If I want to cancel I should be able to cancel instantly with the click of a button. read more

Great staff. Friendly and helpful. Excellent selection of equipment. Wide open spaces. However c'mon let's get the mops out. Cleanliness is not a priority here AT ALL. Portions of the gym floor look like they've never been wiped. Ditto that for cardio and weight machines. I get the hard core gym environment but that doesn't mean cleaning shouldn't be a priority. read more

I can't believe people are rating this gym a 1 because of people not wearing a mask during COVID. That shit is absurd. COVID will be over soon. These reviews should be based on the actual gym, not dumb ass people who aren't wearing their masks. Anyway.... This gym is perfect. The staff is friendly. Everything is in its place 99.9% of the time. Everything is super clean. The equipment is brand new and amazing. This is my dream gym. Everyone is focused. Nobody is bothering you. The only problem is, the price is absurd. 100 bucks? C'mon?! read more

I don't give the 5 star because the only way to park here is in the night late like 1 am the rest is impossible that's why I have to come super late to workout but is def worth it this is one of the best gyms In Miami and the people is super kind to tall recommended just don't come In the busy hours cause you will suffer lol read more

Love this gym. Definitely for people that's into body building for sure! They have all the machines you need to get your workout done. The music is always a vibe too! I miss when they had classes! Hope they bring that back soon. read more

Steven is the best yo! Machines are awesome too and they have a super good posing room

Terrible experience. Signed up for Raul's morning class. I frequently attend other fitness classes and wanted to try something new. No warm up & when explaining, he said he wanted to make sure we all understood because there's always "idiots" that do it wrong. His motivational training consisted of telling us to look around at the girls that attend this gym, and that you're nothing in Miami without a big ass and that we will get cheated on if we don't have one. I had to walk out of the class. People attend classes and the gym to feel better about themselves, not compare themselves to other people and measure their worth to that. He probably gets cheated on with that mentality (and because he's so short). Get better trainers, he's a total douche bag. read more

I don't go to this gym to get fit...I go to get my Organic Banana ice cream.....delicious, with homemade granola, Pineapple and Mango. Its a refreshing twist from the Açai Bowls. Will definitely be back and recomend it. read more

The gym is good, but they share your information with a third-party overseas payment company that requires you to give a 30-day notice to cancel your gym membership and if you miss that by a day they will charge you two months. These are scams that companies use to financial hold and steal money from clients. I would not recommend using a gym that uses these unethical methods of information sharing and payment to international third parties without informing clients. read more

At this gym on June 6th I was disrespected and violated. A man named Tim followed me to the bathroom after he had been staring at me and another women during our workouts. He opened the door on me while I was half dressed and instead of immediately shutting the door he stood there and stared at me and only closed the door when I yelled at him to shut the door and leave. I spoke to the workers there and they were helpful but I do not want to be in a gym that does not immediately revoke membership to a man who behaves in such a manner. He kept insisting he did nothing wrong and even after I started crying out of frustration I still received no apology. My experience at this gym has been traumatic and I feel extremely unsafe and violated after training here. Ontop of this incident, the bathroom are not clean at all. They smell like fish and I often find myself in a situation where there is no toilet paper or even wipes to clean the machines. After this incident the gym has continued to allow the man to train at their gym and blocked my Instagram account and deleted my comments talking about the traumatic experience I had. They have been very unprofessional and insensitive to me despite having been a client at their gym. They are trying to silence me, gaslight me, and paint the picture that I'm lying and exaggerating about what happened to me. The lock on the unisex bathroom door was broken. I was followed into the bathroom. And this creep who is still allowed to go to the gym opened the door and stared at my vulnerable half naked body. Women are not safe here. Planet fitness or LA fitness would be a safer and cleaner option for those looking to train in good environment. read more

This is the dirtiest (I never saw one cleaning staff person in the 4 months I attended the open gym 3-5x a week) and most crowded gym around this area. The stair climbers (only 6 and usually 1 is broken) are covered in funk, the cleaning wipes are mostly out and I trip over tripods when I try to lift. I have also been concerned about being in the background of many videos I did not consent to as the members do not even ask or care. Most people think they are IG famous here. Privacy is important to me and more work, yet I feel exposed and unsafe when the number of cameras and videos in your gym. Women almost all have fake bodies and hog machines they are probably using incorrectly anyway. Men are creeps (I read the other reviews and can confirm, I was genuinely scared I'd be followed home once.) I had to buy my own ankle straps for the cables bc the gym has none. The gym never has equipment you need like bar pads for hip thursts The front desk staff (the women who work mid-day) are always rude. ALWAYS. Even when the question is literally their job to answer. You work at the gym front desk....how you rude? Membership is a sign on amount + minimum 3 months. I paid 89-96/month (I forget exact #) Re: masks? HA no one ever wore one. Definitely not staff. They tried to selectively tell members to have them around their chins back in March. But not past then. Let me stress one more time. Nothing is cleaned. Ever. And it smells like it's never cleaned. read more

Favourite gym in Miami. Beautiful gym. I love it here. Great equipment. Great staff. Great atmosphere.

Amazing equipment, atmosphere like no other place in the city, but most importantly the people that work here and the owners are friendly and helpful. The owners are always upgrading equipment pieces I've never seen anything like it.... if you want cutting edge, this is the place to train! -The Squat Father- read more

Reading my initial thoughts on Elev8tion from 2017 truly makes me sad that the quality of the brand and gym environment has declined to the extent that it has. Elev8tion still has the most equipment of any gym in Miami, except that each piece is entirely stacked on top of the other equipment and the pure masses of people there make it hard to even move around without tripping over equipment or someone's tripod that they use to film themselves. There is nowhere to stretch, and usually nowhere to park nor actually drive through the parking lot a bulk of the time, because people park their vehicles everywhere. Customer appreciation comes last, almost a close tie with cleanliness. Never have been happier to have joined a commercial gym read more

Love love my hometown gym. I often go to the wynwood one or the Miami shores one. I believe their south beach location is opening up this weekend so I might be trying that out soon too. The machines are top notch, the facility is always clean, at both locations the staff is super friendly and courteous to you. The staff frequently checked the gym to make sure everything son order, I'm talking I've seen them walk around the entire gym atleast four to five times during my hour and. A half there just wiping down equipment or organizing and area. The people that work out here really take the gym life serious so it's nice to know everyone is there to lift, not to socialize and as a girl NOT getting hit on at the gym all the time is such a positive thing. read more

This facility is amazing! Some of the best equipment I've ever seen. The gym has expanded and there's so much room. I usually go in the mornings at the wynwood location and it's pretty empty for a gym. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. The equipment and facility is really clean. All of their weights have their logo on it, which is pretty cool. This gym has an atmosphere that makes you want to lift, makes you want to workout and that's something you don't find everywhere. Overall, this is a great gym to attend and I highly recommend it. read more

This is by far the BEST GYM in Miami , this facility has everything for anytime of fitness enthusiast . The classes are dope. The trainers are versatile and specialize in all type of various types of conditioning. Wether your goal is strength training, weight loss , cross training ,boxing, yoga, spinning. They have it all. This first location is located in the arts & entertainment district,!but they are now opening new locations in Miami Beach and North Miami. This is a family type atmosphere with people around to help push and motivate each other to get better and reach your goals. Free parking you don't need a fancy car or outfit to show up. read more

Dropped in two days in a row... badass facility with great equipment and positive vibe. When in Miami I will train here

Positives: Excellent array of equipment, friendly staff, large space divided into three sections. Negatives: Weird hodgepodge of a "gym" that had an industrial/club vibe. You literally could get your haircut next to the bench press. There's a dining section next to the weight lifting equipment. There's a random foosball table next to the cardio section. They sell food and health services like cryotherapy in there too. Just sooo much going on in a gym...like why? Reason for NOT joining: No enforcement of Covid safety measures. Many patrons walked about, sans masks, without reproach. It was reckless behavior. read more

The best gym in Miami!!! They have such a wide variety of equipment and are always getting new machines. In addition, the staff is always very friendly and approachable. They also have surveillance cameras 24/7 which is nice for safety purposes. I highly recommend this gym. read more

I absolutely love being HUNG UP on the phone LOL Completely rude and unhelpful front desk staff. I walked into this gym one day and ready the flyer about the rates / locations / and was going to join but once I seen the price that would have been due in full it didn't add up to what I was told do I said I'll just buy a gym pass for the day since I also wanted to check out powerhouse and their brand new beautiful facility. Checked out powerhouse and then looked once more at Elev8tion website. Looking at the website the prices appeared better than I thought I was given while in the gym "awesome right" SO TODAY I CALLED I asked to speak to a manager about the membership and the front doom man whose name I couldn't hear with it being so loud asked me why I need to talk to a manager I said about a membership he asked why again I said because I worked out on a day pass and I think I was mistaken with the information I got that day. Then he asked again SO WHY A MANAGER ‍ I said when is a manager there to talk to he said everyday and I said what are you not understanding about my line of questions and my desire to speak to a manager to become a member and he HUGE UP ON ME just WOW Top notch customer service Really wish I would have got his name. Tuesday November 8th at 5pm read more

The workers are friendly and quick to assist you. The gym is filled with motivation and positive energy; as for my opinion, Overall a great gym. And it's only getting better. read more

Elevation has some of the best machines I've seen in any gym. I live in S. Beach during most of the Winter and I've now wishing there was an Elevation back where I spend most of my days. Great equipment, great music, helpful staff and great energy...this is the place to get cut-up! read more

I joined this gym based on a recommendation. I was assured that all members wear masks upon registration. I visited the gym one morning in February and almost everyone was without a mask. I emailed management about it hoping they'd try to do something about it. They responded that they can't control it and would have to hire someone just to remind people about their masks. His recommendation was that I stay home to workout and stay safe. Fees would be refunded. I was completely appalled. It was evident they don't care about people wearing masks and his response was just beyond patronizing. read more

When looking for a gym it's important to check off some boxes. Equipment, environment, size, hours of operation and parking...Elev8tion fitness checks them all.

So I don't usually review places so I making an exception here. The reason I am is because of the review posted by Konstantine, which I came across while checking Thanksgivings hours. This an honest review of Elev8tion: I have been training here for 6 months. 6 days a week. I have never seen a syringe or a bottle of anything in the bathrooms. Sadly I use the bathroom often as I take prescribed diuretics for my high blood pressure. They are cleaned several times a day and let's be candid here: no one takes their shots in the gym when they can do it in their own homes. Steroids are in every gym and every sport and people do not do it in the bathrooms of their gyms. Just ridiculous to say. The staff here are friendly and courteous. They know your name when you walk in and always say good morning, good afternoon and have a great night. Professional to a fault. Even my first visit with Cory who refused to let me do the tour by myself. His words "that wouldn't be professional if I didn't show you around". Well done Cory. And the guys is always smiling! Let's talk gym and equipment. For limited space they have all that you could need and more. Is it tight in some parts, yes for sure. But I would rather have the seated chest press and have to squeeze by another machine than not have it at all. The functional fitness side is stacked and has plenty of space to do anything you need. If you can't get a good workout here than you're just not trying hard enough. Members: At first you would think based on appearances that the people who train here are rude, pretentious and full off themselves. But they aren't, they are super cool, always let you work in and are quick to give a spot or helping hand. Don't judge them by how they look; mostly everyone there are good people. You will see some photoshoots and wow a ton of selfies. I don't do social media so for me the picture taking did wear on me a bit. What can you do? This is where society is right now, you have to just ignore it. All in all I have trained at the best gyms on the East Coast. Barring Bev's in Long Island And Star fitness in the Bronx this gym is one of the best and I am very happy being a member. Join here you won't regret it. read more

I recently joined Elev8tion about 3 weeks ago. I am in Love. Everyone is so friendly and the atmosphere is inspiring. Top notch machines and great music. Cody convinced me to join, as I was apprehensive leaving a gym in walking distance from my home and now having to drive. He was so friendly, professional, and explained how I wouldn't regret it. It was absolutely worth it. I'm excited to continue my fitness journey at this gym. read more

This is one of my go-to gyms when I visit Miami, as I've always had an awesome experience here. The staff is great, the owners are super friendly and the atmosphere is motivating! I honestly look forward to training here each time I'm in town! read more

Great community, owner I know personally great guy, however this gym has the hands down the worst cancellation process of any gym I've been to in 14 years. I confirmed my cancellation 3 times and still I am being charged 80 dollars EVERY SINGLE DAY, I cannot put money on my card for because I will have lost $2400! by the end of the month with the Elev8tion Fitness scam, I have tried to resolve this many times before writing this review and will continue to try. I highly recommend to pay in cash or don't go at all, SERIOUSLY. read more
