STAY AWAY Extremely…read morerude people and very over priced for personal training and group classes. I went there to check any New Years specials, none. There is no showers or locker room. I asked to see the bathroom because to me it is one of the most important areas to check and take a moment to think ;) Very disrespectfully the personal trainer who was in the front knocked the bathroom door asking me to get out. They could even hear me on the toilet but they yelled at me to leave lol It felt so unsafe and threatening to be in there while someone is knocking the toilet door. I left right away. When I was in my own car in the public parking lot writing this review, the same personal trainer followed me outside and was yelling in the street!! This absolutely a place to stay away as far as you can or just try another gym :) If I can give ZERO stars or negative I would give it to this place.

They are both incredibly positive, fun and thoughtful. They truly just want each LOGger to feel good and get better, they offer modifications and advice/counsel if you seek it and they make their classes accessible to all levels. I love their focus on mindfulness and building community and think anyone and everyone can gain something from LOG!

It's been a long time coming -- this gym is finally open, and it's right near my house YAY! I went…read moreduring grand opening weekend to get first impressions, and now I'm officially a member. So there's a lot to touch on here... first off, all of the equipment is fresh, clean, and high-quality. The staff are professional and I really like the layout of the place. So, you step in there and the first thing you have to do is scan your badge at the desk. There are some gyms where you are required to scan just to go inside... I like those, but this is cool since the staff seem on it. As soon as you pass them you see machines all around. There are grouped throughout the gym based on muscle group. And I'd recommend bringing headphones or earbuds... they blast... BLAST their music, and while it's upbeat, it's definitely not child friendly. And be warned --- if you're one to come in the morning or right after work, you may encounter a lot of tripods. A lot of folks record themselves (not you) these days... it's quite the culture now, fascinating! The mens bathroom has three entrances, showers, clean lockers, and a lovely sauna! It's a welcome addition to the neighborhood for sure. These don't make it a less than 5-star experience, but a few things I want to touch on that I don't love: -Music: I think it's louder than it should be. And I don't need family-friendly options personally, but I bet some do. -Mats: there's one big communal one in the back, but no individual mats like what I'm used to at other gyms. You're forced to bring your own... that's fine, just unusual (in my experience). -Hand sanitizer: only one is in the front next to the door -- would love more spread throughout. -Quiet hours signs: patrons are only allowed to record themselves during quiet hours... I love this enforcement, but I think more signs than just the one in the front would be a good reminder to all. Welcome to Greenbelt, DMV Iron!!!

I visited to do some free weight dumbbell exercises. I especially enjoyed the customer service, the…read moreinterior design, and the music. The space was large and clean. Parking was easy. This location's got potential, but I think they could improve on their signage, having proper cleaning wipes instead of paper napkins, and their amenities. This place just opened and the sauna is already out of service. I also think it's large enough to host two saunas, especially for the price of the membership rates. I was going to stick with my initial decision (3 stars), but because the service was impressively good, I'm going to give this 4 stars. Customer service still matters y'all!

Upon entering, I was greeted at the front desk. She checked me in and gave me a quick tour of the facility. The place was cute (lots of pink) and clean. The instructor set me up on a bike and we were ready to go. Unfortunately I think my seat was a little too high, so it was uncomfortable for the duration of the ride. I was also a little put off because when I was first getting on my bike, there was an issue with tightening the foot straps and it took another person in the class to try to fix it for the instructor to get up and help me. I removed one star for that. The class itself was cool. It wasn't too hard, but slightly challenging.

The space is well laid out and kept clean; staff is friendly and gets to know you; and every coach knows exactly what they're doing. Boxing coaches like Jordan structure a class so you learn technique, get a good workout, and condition your body. And jiu-jitsu classes led by Ron or Mike challenge you to learn every time you visit. (They even got this girl rolling around for the sport!) This isn't a gym where you just slug your fists into a bag and get a summer body: You're going to learn real skills here to work your body and brain, and give you self defense techniques. If you've thought about trying boxing, kickboxing, or jiu-jitsu, give Urban Boxing a try - I think your first class is free, too.

I visited Urban boxing navy yard for the second time and took an all levels course. As a beginner,…read moreI appreciated their "no rush" approach to helping me wrap my hands and get situated. Front dark staff was great at giving us a run down of what to expect in the class prior to it starting. And where all the amenities are. The shower room Was nice and spacious (although being your own towel) and I appreciated that they had tampons in the women's bathroom. The class was a nice combo of cardio, core/strength, and skills. I appreciated the constant movement around. The studio to different areas, including the occasional lap around the entire facility. Class didn't feel too big and we had enough space to do our partner work and hit the bags without hitting each other. The instructor did some individual work but it was limited to 30 seconds or less give. There were 15-20 people in the class. He was available when I had questions about what the combo we were practicing was (if I didn't get it the first two times) and made several corrections to my form along the way. All levels class was good for beginners and definitely a moderate to high intensity workout (depending on how hard you go).

In boxing, one must have patience. It isn't going to happen overnight. I've trained at other gyms but Downtown has been the best! It's grungy and basic but that's all you need. For fighters with experience, this is a place you come to when you need to get back to the basics or like in my case get rid of bad habits.
