I have been a member of many gyms - from Manhattan to California - and attended many different kinds of workout classes. The classes at Lacey Lee are among the best I have attended. The instructors are excellent, enthusiastic and are able to challenge the members without being overbearing. The gym itself is small, but big enough for the intended purposes and the equipment is all in good shape. The classes are variable enough that you never get bored, but consistent enough that you know you will get a great full-body workout every time. Besides all that, the members are very welcoming and the gym has a great community feel. Highly recommended!

Her playlist was on point, and she did positive affirmations after every set of workouts. This was her first fitness class since the new year, and she started very strong. She made sure to warm us up and cool us down. She even had a set of workouts that required fitness bands, which were provided. I will drop by again. This felt like such an empowering and safe space. *Parking is hard to find. I recommend getting there about 10 minutes early just to find parking.

I'm not sure if there's a parking lot near this place but I just park at the garage where the parking office is, it should be a 5-10 min walk(Walking with friends talking gossip stuff maybe 20 mins lol). The check-in process was fast, for first-timers, you'll have to go to the desl and they'll show you how to register, as I remember you have to put your hands on the check-in thing 3 times then you're good to go. Well they'll teach you. After that you just have to punch in your UIN then put your hands on the check-in thing then you're good to go. I didn't have time to use the machines but they look amazing and new, and there is a big variety of machines. There's also a track on the secomd floor for people to jog. And there's a swimming pool, a climbing wall(not always open, look for the schedule online), many rooms for classes(some of them are free, look for them online), squash rackets etc. There's a place where you can rent all the equipment to play, I came here to play basketball so I rent a basketball, and it is a Nike. The reason I took one star off is because of the basketball court. Although it is huge and I like how they put a thing to block the farthest court so the intense games on the other side won't worry about us the chill people having our ball rolling into their court, the floor is slippery, which means it is dirty. The floor is also weird because the ball won't bounce back, I guess they are some cheap materials. Overall, it is a good recreation center to workout, especially it's free for students so you cannot ask for more.

After just a few months I have seen results in terms of my flexibility, control and strength that I have not seen with any of my other training. I am now able to do things I couldn't even dream of doing even as a teen. The studio is super cute too! With a Moss green wall and a purple velvet couch in the waiting room and a great choice of equipment (reformers, cadillac, barrels, low and high chairs, foot correctors... you name it). And she has online classes available as well, so if you travel (like I do) you have some great options.

She worked with me slowly at first to figure out what muscles were tight or loose, how to balance the imbalances, and then helped me with my strength and flexibility.

Everlea is kind but firm, her exercises are varied and challenging, and my body feels so much improved.

FIRST-Time Review of Club Pilates Cardio Sculpting Class-WOW!…read more First of all....I SURVIVED! Second of all..I loved every minute of it!! As a first timer walking into Norfolk's Club Pilates Cardio Sculpt class, I wasn't sure what to expect. I had only done the free intro class last week, so I guess the class was going to do, maybe a little reformer work, some light stretching, nothing too crazy! Baaaby! SPOILER :Mama got a FULL body, heart pumpin', sweat drippin', muscle shakin' workout tuhday!! What surprised me most was how seamless the class blended traditional Pilates movements with cardio burst, like leg circles, jumping lunges, squats, and core-cardio sculpting!!! What?! Yes! My abs, arms, and glutes, are still talking about it. Despite being a newbie, I never felt lost. Pam, the instructor, offered mods and checked on me and others often. Everyone in the room was sweating, smiling and breathing. lol. I'll be back!! Take advantage of a free class. You'll be hooked like I was!

This place just opened a month ago and an amazing addition to the Norfolk are. I just finished an…read moreINTRO class and everyone here were so sweet and welcoming. Pam, who was the instructor, was very informed and made sure everyone were safe in their movements on the reformer. The location is great, it's at the new Railyard at Lambert's Point and there were plenty of parking. They have different membership options and their app makes it really easy to buy and make appointments for classes. I highly recommend trying this place out! If you don't want to pay for membership, they have a $29/class option.

I'm not done with my trial yet, but even after one week, I've already seen a lot of progress in my body. On day one, I was a little lost. Came in a little intimidated BUT Tara was so welcoming and helpful. Obviously you have to ease slowly into working out again if your body isn't used to it, but every coach gives you different moderations of the circuit workouts so that you don't hurt yourself. They listen to your needs and prior injuries and health concerns to make sure you're not straining yourself, but still working hard to get that workout done! What's most important to them is that you're moving. You don't have to go too hard if you can't, they're just proud that you even took the step of showing up! There's a different kind of workout each day of the week that concentrates on different sections of the body or the workout technique of the day from cardio to leg day to arm day to athletic training, etc. It is a little pricey for a membership, but if you can squeeze it into your budget, I definitely think it's worth it. You can tell in your every day movements that burn has been helping. I'm breathing better during any other physical activities (like going up the stairs lol you can't tell me that you don't try to hide your breath going up some stairs sometimes. I'm usually winded, but the other day, I CHOSE to go up the stairs instead of the elevator. Who am I??), I'm getting up without grunting, I'm choosing better for my bodily health. It's so nice! And honestly what I needed for this summer. Hope you guys get the chance to check it out!

Cannot say enough good about this place! I have primarily worked with Emma, and training with her…read morehas been an incredible experience. She's thorough, knowledgeable, and precise in her delivery of both programming and feedback. She provides encouragement where appropriate and maintains a healthy approach to steady incremental improvement. The programing she compiled has been very helpful in meeting my specific training goals, and the collaborative nature of it has felt like a breath of fresh air. On occasion I've worked with some of the other trainers, and they all exhibit the same high degree of professionalism and competence. The only thing I wish was a little different pertains to scheduling. Training sessions are 45 minutes which can feel a little tight depending on the day. And while I do also appreciate their interpersonal and manual methods for schedule changes, the convenience of selecting time slots off an app or website is sometimes hard to beat. That being said, they have always been reasonably accommodating to changes when there is an opening, and their approach also helps keep me more consistent, so I can appreciate that the tradeoffs have their merits. On a separate note, coming from another gym with group fitness classes, the pricing may feel a little steep, but for the level of tailored care and training, I've found them to be competitively priced with similar programs in other cities and a good value proposition. Their facilities are also kept in pristine condition with equipment in excellent working order. If you're searching for a wholistic approach to improving your fitness, look no further!
