Love the group classes with Jill and individual training with Corrie. The online classes with Jill and Caity are great, and the 1:1 workouts during the shutdown have been excellent -- just what I needed. Professional, friendly, knowledgeable ... great place to workout, highly recommend. read more

Trained for years - this place gets it done! Went down an entire clothes size in 4 weeks with Jamie! Enormous energy the minute u walk in till the time you leave! All age groups and all levels see results- the real beauty is that they train you to do "normal moves" that you can continue to do at home in between sessions! read more

I've reviewed previously (3mo & 1500$ spent, 0# lost, staff nonpulsed), so... ETA: When you see these reviews, take them with a grain of salt. On at least one occasion, FitOne has emailed their client list asking them to review the business on Yelp. Additionally, do your own research and make your own decisions on their nutritional counseling. I've since learned that there is really very little oversight for or agreement on what consitutes a nutritionist, or qualifies one as such. My own story is halfway to its happy ending; with the help of a certified NP with nutritional credentials, I've lost 20# of pure fat in less than 2mo. I still wish I hadn't wasted my time/money/energy with FitOne - and I stand by the rest of my first review. On the other hand, they're nice people who genuinely intend to help. YMMV. read more

I started personal training with Jamie about a month ago and it's been an amazing experience. Caity, the owner, is really involved in managing the business and made sure I had a great experience. She listened to what I wanted out of training and found me the PERFECT trainer. Jamie is motivating, positive and really informative about how the exercises I am doing affect different parts of my body. She clearly knows what she is doing!! I also really like that it feels like she creates a female-centric workout that is always evolving based on my increasing abilities. She even incorporates yoga and stretching and gives me good tips for improving my body at home when I'm not with her. She pushes me hard enough to struggle and improve, but not so hard that you feel dismayed and she has so much positive energy!!! read more

I signed up for a once-a-week Personal Training package at Fit One because I was tired of being fat and out-of-shape and lacked the discipline to get myself to the gym on a regular basis. I loved the studio but was initially unimpressed that my trainers and my appointment time seemed to rotate weekly. In retrospect, I think that I probably just started at a bad time of year - just before Thanksgiving - and the trainer I was assigned to got stuck overseas on holiday and I had a series of substitute trainers before my schedule settled. I will say this - all the trainers I worked with (Caity, Natalia, Alex, Jill, Penny, Luke, Heather) , were extremely knowledgeable and professional. I also worked with Heather on nutrition counseling and in less than 6 months, I had lost 50 lbs, largely due to diet alone. Had I been able to afford more than a single training session per week, I think I would've seen even greater results, but in the end, I learned some valuable information about diet and nutrition that has greatly improved my quality of life over the past 5 years. Fit One was also very accommodating regarding my contract. Due to life issues getting in the way, I had to end my contract early and they were so gracious in refunding me for the sessions I didn't use (I didn't even ask for a refund!). They were also really gracious about letting me use my extra training sessions towards nutrition counseling sessions. At the time, Fit One kept suggesting that I try their group exercise classes because they thought I'd enjoy the interaction with the other clients. I refused because I always felt self-conscious working out in front of others. Fast-forward a few years and now I take several group exercise classes a week at other studios and I LOVE THEM!!! I will always credit Fit One for helping me jump-start my way back to a healthier way of life! read more

I really, really like FitOne. They are so nice, but also incredibly knowledgable and helpful in creating fantastic workouts. It is very relaxed--I tended to be on the younger side of the participants in the Power Circuit training classes, but I enjoy that. It makes for a non-competitive, non-threatening, non-ogling atmosphere. The classes are small enough that the instructors can provide very personal attention when needed, and they really get to know you and make you feel good about being there. I can't speak to the personal training, or to classes other than Power Circuit, which combines strength training and aerobic exercise. But I really thought these were a great way to get lots of individual attention without the cost of personal training (which I simply can't afford). I ended up being a fan of the morning classes that Luke teaches--all the instructors are great, but I liked his style and found that to be a convenient time slot for me. My only complaints are that it is fairly pricey (it is hard for me to swallow $128 a month for classes doing what I SHOULD be able to accomplish on my own in a gym for a lot less). But the great individual attention makes that price seem reasonable. Also, I wish that there could be a few more morning classes added to the schedule--I happen to work nearby and can squeeze in the 45 minute classes relatively easily, but it would be better if there were more that fell outside of "work" hours. read more

The circuit class was amazing: 12 stations x 3 exercises at each station = one seriously tired but happy body. Over 45 minutes, the instructor/co-owner Jill was really motivating, and still ran around making sure everyone's weights were not too heavy or too light and that our form was good. The circuit changes every 8 weeks or so and was well balanced. I bought a coupon for eight classes and am looking forward to the next seven classes and beyond. The regular $20 price tag seems reasonable. Not sure I'd ever do a small group class at $45 each, though. The location at the north end of Old Town is easy to get to via the GW Parkway, even from downtown DC. Parking was not an issue. The space is clean, uncluttered, and includes bathrooms and a shower. read more

I was a client with FitOne for almost two years with Jill and Penny as my trainers (LOVE JILL AND PENNY). I have major gym phobia (like, I'll be honest and say I haven't been able to go to the gym once I stopped going to FitOne - *cry*) and FitOne was perfect for me in terms of always making me feel at ease, making me feel like part of their family, and never once did I feel intimidated or discouraged. FitOne tailors their personal training sessions to what YOU need (not what they want - which I know some other gyms do). They listen, they tailor the sessions - sometimes on the fly, they work with you and they are the ultimate cheerleaders. FitOne is actually one of my favorite places to go because it's not too small but not overly big. They don't have mirrors all over the place, people don't stare at you, and it's just a fun relaxed atmosphere. (They also provide group classes such as cardio, kickboxing, and pilates as well as a power circuit group class if you can't afford the personal training side). read more

I absolutely love the trainers there! The workouts are tough and as a result I look and feel great! I trained with several trainers there and got a feel for most of them but my favorites are Kameron and Caity. As for the space, its clean and up to date. They have a shower so you can work out on your lunch break and not smell when you go back to the office, which is definitely a plus! read more

My sister and I joke that FitOne saved our lives...maybe we're only half-joking. We've worked with Caity weight training for 18 months and kickboxing with Karlene for 8 months. We look forward to every session and it just gets better. I'd had trouble keeping exercise in my weekly schedule and wasn't sure I'd have the time to train. And I thought if I could just get my walks in that I wouldn't need a trainer. But my sister made me go to FitOne with her. After one session with Caity (we do a buddy session) I realized just walking or running wasn't ever going to help my entire body (and brain) the way my customized weight training and kick boxing does. Exercise, including weight training, is as close to the fountain of youth as we have now, and I'm a believer! And having my own gloves for kickboxing, well, that's just too cool. read more

Jill and Caity are awesome! I love the small studio format and everyone there is super friendly. They totally customize workouts for the specific person and body. I went to them for training for years and all the way through my first pregnancy. I wish there was a Fit One near my house so I could go back! read more

I'm a fan! I went to a total of 16 circuit training sessions and enjoyed every single one of them. I started at FitOne with pretty much zero muscle strength (I'd been a decent runner though), and throughout the course of three months, Caity and Jill pushed me to increase weights, and it totally worked! I also like that the environment is not at all intimidating :) read more

My experience at FitOne has been absolutely phenomenal. My father, brother, and I have been training with Caity for the past 15 years or so, and I would not want to train with anyone else! Every time I workout at FitOne I learn something new. Caity and Jill are hands down the most knowledgeable and friendliest trainers I have ever had the privilege of working with. Over the past 3 months, Caity has helped me drop an incredible 35 pounds, and she keeps me motivated to lose even more! I would enthusiastically recommend FitOne to anyone, regardless of age or ability. The training regimen at FitOne is different, effective, safe, but most importantly, it's always fun! read more

Been going to Fit 1 for over 3 years now. Love it! I started going when I hit a number on the scale that shocked me into action. They tailored a workout program for me that took into account my limited initial fitness level. I initially liked their 3 month plans and circuit workout options since that allowed me to give Fit1 a try without having to truly commit for 6 or 12 month plans that other gyms where offering in the area. Today, I am 40 pounds lighter and counting. All the trainers are very professional and tailor workout sessions that will work for each client. read more

I've been training with Caity at Fit One for about 2 years now and I am totally addicted. Caity is extremely knowledgeable and knows how to get results. She pushes me to my limit and I enjoy every minute of it. The upbeat atmosphere of the studio is infectious. I always leave on a high! read more

I have been working with FitOne for almost four years. I am committed to my physical and nutritional fitness because F1 is committed. The owners are obviously highly educated and continuously adding to their knowledge. Their holistic point of view has helped me achieve a stable and sustainable weight, encouraged me to use yoga and walking to supplement the work I am doing at F1, and has helped me to successfully work through a knee injury that I was sure I needed surgery to correct. Personal Training is not a silver bullet--that is, paying for the sessions does not mean the pounds magically melt away. I now drink water because I know Caity will ask. I am cutting down on my kryptonite (potato chips), because she asks. I know to eat protein after my work out because she reminds me as I leave. I have somebody in my corner, and it is keeping me motivated. read more

This place is truly special! I've been working out at FitOne for 4+ years and have made huge improvements in my physical health along with wonderful connections and friendships with the people there. The trainers focus on your individual strengths and needs, with everything designed for the best progress you can make in your personal fitness journey. Group classes are fun and motivating, with exercises that are challenging but not defeating, and a great, non-competitive spirit. FitOne has truly been a life-changer for me, and I would happily recommend it to everyone! read more

For anyone who is nervous and/or intimidated about the gym experience, FitOne is your place! Owners Jill and Caity have created a space for people of all levels to work towards their fitness goals without feeling lost in the fray of places like Golds or feeling self-conscious b/c they're working out next to Mr. Universe. FitOne would be great for anyone who is taking that first step into working out or someone who wants to take their current workout up a notch. Customization + personalization + professionalism + knowledge + a really cool space = FitOne. read more

I wish I had joined Fit One earlier! I have been a devoted Pilates/ TRX person but realized that I needed more upper body strength. On a whim I dropped into Fit One and signed up for 3 months of personal training once a week. My schedule is crazy and I am traveling constantly...even though it was supposed to be every Thursday night....they were very flexible as their schedule could accommodate my travels. I was assigned a specific trainer ...Mel... who was fabulous. Over the 4 months, I definitely saw big improvements in my stamina and strength . She knew a lot about core training so it was a perfect compliment to the rest of my workout routine. Unfortunately I am moving ...to Boston...and as of yet have not found a Mel replacement. There is a nice mix of hard core training and people just trying to get into shapes in this shop to make everyone feel comfortable. read more
