I was a loyal member of Sweat Studio when it was located in Nevada City and continued to support the business after it moved to Grass Valley, even referring others and maintaining my membership through COVID. The expanded space allowed for more classes and room to participate. However, over time I became uncomfortable with certain aspects of how the studio was operated. Classes are consistently heated to around 105-108 degrees, and members are strongly discouraged from leaving the room if they feel overheated or unwell. While I understand the purpose of heated classes, I believe participants should be able to take breaks for their own health and safety without judgment. Additionally, the studio environment increasingly reflected the political views of the owner. Posters and messaging expressing political opinions were displayed in the space, which I found distracting in what I expected to be a neutral setting focused on wellness. I also experienced challenges with how concerns were handled. For example, I reported issues with another male member's behavior over an extended period and did not feel supported or reassured that the matter was being addressed. People also are allowed to park in the handicapped parking spot when able bodied. At times, I also sensed inconsistent treatment among clients, which impacted the overall atmosphere. While there are aspects of Sweat Studio that many people may enjoy, my personal experience ultimately led me to look for a fitness environment where I feel more comfortable, supported, and safe.

Since the start of the pandemic I lost some of my healthy routines and gained weight. I have always been a runner and a yogi, but it has been difficult to lose this pandemic weight just through running, and unlike the Bay Area, in the summer it's too hot to run up here! I also have a strong aversion to lifting weights, I would have never considered it "fun". In the short 3 months I have been here, Sweat Studio has completely changed by life and my body. Shelly, the owner is a fantastic teacher, highly motivating, and so kind and welcoming to beginners like me. For the first time in my life, I enjoy working out and feel motivated to push myself past my physical comfort zone. I strongly recommend that you check out the variety of classes they have here- hot yoga, dance, pilates, sculpt, circuit training, and cycling. There are also a variety of teachers and styles- so if you are looking for someone to kick your butt as you sweat to Cardi B or let your stress go in child's pose, I promise there is a teacher for you. Thank you to all the Staff at Sweat Studio, I feel so grateful to have found you! Also, just FYI the studio is sparkling clean:)
