I want to give this gym 5 stars because I really enjoy the instructors, especially Melissa…read more However, I had a terrible experience with the front staff recently and now I'll never be going back there. I became an elite (8 monthly classes) member over the holiday. I bought a couple 30 pack classes prior to joining with the 8 classes. I asked the gentleman at the front desk (Sean) to please add me to the class because I hadn't signed up. I then asked if he could make sure it comes off my Elite 8 pack that expires, and not the 30 class pack that has no expiration, as this has been an issue for me the past month. Sean then stated that this is done at your home studio. I simply explained that this has actually happened before (at N. Reading and Assembly Row) and that I know it needs to be fixed at N. Reading. Sean then turns the computer screen to me and says, I've worked here for 4 years there's no where for me to change it. I again explained, I'm not sure how it was done prior but it is always done at the gym I signed up for the class. Sean then says "do I need to remove you from class?" Shocked, I asked for what? As I opened my phone to check to see if the class was pulled from my Elite or 30 pack. Sean responds, "Are you having a bad day?" When I saw the class came off my Elite I just walked away. All I can say is WOW... I've worked in the fitness industry for a very long time. I worked as a front desk staff for YEARS and I've never spoken to or had anyone speak to me as rudely as this gentleman. I was so upset, I couldn't even work off my anger and ended up leaving class early. I truly hope this is not how you train your staff. Especially when I was just concerned about losing a class. In the future you might want to train your staff to kindly ask the members to check the application first to make sure the class was pulled wrong. You also might want to train your staff on how to fix this if and when it happens to someone else.

Can't trust this gym with your credit card information! So unfortunate to see a company take…read moreadvantage of people during covid like this. Former N. Reading OTFer here. I loved this gym for about a year. Fully drank the koolaid, had monthly unlimited memberships, posted obnoxiously on my instagram stories, participated in all of the challenges they ran. Loved it! The coaches were amazing, body positive, people who would push you in the most uplifting way. Especially Chrys and Kristen. Fast forward to COVID. As things started reopening, corporate sent out an emailing with the tone of "we are here for you when you are ready, let us know if you aren't via email/phone" same day I received it, I emailed back to the studio detailing how we have an immunocompromised person in our quaranteam and I can't risk it- and to count me out. Then, months later in a FB group I saw someone comment that they'd been charged. It appears this happened to multiple members. That cued me to check my credit card statements and I noticed a charge for July and August. I contacted the studio and they blamed the old management and that they had no record of me cancelling. (It didn't raise any suspicion as they are charging all of these accounts who aren't ever coming in and using their classes?) I fwded them the email I sent and they didn't care. They eventually refunded one of the two charges but say since it took me "over a month" to realize the July charge, there was nothing they could do for me. What's worse than gaining weight during a pandemic? Still paying $109 for OTF. Turns out, all of my favorite people there were fired/left when management was changed completely during COVID.

The routines for each classes are different and most of all, challenging. They offer spin class, combination of circuit and treadmill, kettle bell, and strength training. Each time I am done with a class, I come out sweating and feeling sore. All the instructors are very friendly, helpful, and welcoming. During class, the instructors will encourage everyone to challenge themselves. The studio is clean and modern feel. Music is awesome! Overall, highly recommend this studio to anyone that wants to try something different.

The main stations are rope, speed bags, and heavy bags. Jim has gloves for you to use until you invest in a pair if you like it. There's a boxing ring in the middle of the gym and you get in there and hit the mitts at the end of your work out. The atmosphere is supportive and the age ranges are 5-65+ Women and men boys and girls. It's a great little community of people working to get better each day with supportive coaching and great ownership. I could not be happier with this gym. A+++

While I've always had a heavy bag you don't need any experience, and if I'm an example you're probably better off! I decided to give this place a try when I saw the "old school" fitness on the website. Fad diets will come and go, but honest hard work is always the answer. Yes it hurts to type it out.. Still true though Upon arriving I was greeted by Jim, and it's no mistake that his professional nick name was "Gentleman Jim". He showed me around, asked me some questions, and before I knew it he was already laying down an educational foundation. Being a newbie I forgot the schedule, and I accidently showed up during the one of the youth classes. He could have kindly asked me to come back in hour. Instead he showed me an area where I could begin to work, and not interfere with the kids time. It was during this time where I was in another room listening. Yes Jim has a business to run, and I'm sure those classes help that business, but make absolutely NO MISTAKE about it! That class was 1000% PASSION DRIVEN. Listening to Jim teaching those kids was an absolute joy, and I'm glad that I was able to be a part of that. We should all be so lucky to have something in our lives that we have that much passion in. When you decide to give this gym a try I have one small favor to ask. It's simple: just observe and listen. As people come in and out of the gym you will hear Jim call them all by their name. While remarkable in itself it really drives home that when you walk into his gym he is welcoming you into his home, and sharing his passion with you. I guarantee you will be grateful you decided to do this for yourself.
