It's…read moreonly 2.5 miles from where I live, and I've not only found my favorite place to work out -- I've also met so many amazing people here! The variety of classes is incredible. I especially love Yoga Pilates, Reformer Pilates, and weight training. Every class is fun, energizing, and just the right amount of challenge. I've had six different instructors so far, and each one is unique, talented, and engaging -- you truly never get bored. Jody, the owner, is there often and teaches many of the classes herself, which gives the studio a warm, community feel. Her passion for what she does really shows. If you're looking for a place that's welcoming, motivating, and full of good vibes, Reform Fitness is it. So glad I found this place

My sister invited my best friend and I as her free guests a couple of months ago (members can bring…read morea free [NEW] guest per visit, which I think is great!) It was my first experience rock climbing and my first time at Uptown. My sister really wanted to do the Top Knot/Belaying class that night, so my friend and I blindly signed up, too. (My sister got the class for free, since she was a member.) Even though I was unaware of what the class was about beforehand, I was glad we participated because it opened up more opportunities in the gym, and I was thrilled to learn something new. After a few more times coming back, I decided to get a membership, and it has been one of the best decisions I have made this year. Here's why: 1.) The staff is so kind, knowledgeable, and eager to help. They remember you when you come in. One of the owners, Rob, is such a friendly guy, and so is Mitzi, the membership development director. Chase, Josh, and Rafael are others that have put a smile on my face, engaged in conversation with me, or have graciously shared beginner tips. The entire team is great, but these are the only people's name I know so far. 2.) The environment is always welcoming, positive, and nonjudgmental. There's a community to found here, with a plethora of diverse people and skill levels. You won't feel uncomfortable as a beginner. There are a lot of people who come daily just to experience something new and try it once, but there are also many beginner, intermediate, and advanced members who visit the gym regularly. 3.) The membership benefits are awesome: 10% off purchases, free access to the gym (a very nice gym), free yoga classes, and access to member-only hours. Plus, certain classes are also free, such as the Top-Knot class. 4.) The classes they offer to teach people more about the climbing world is another factor I appreciate. They offer skills classes, a beginner class, and even private lessons. There's plenty of opportunities for progression and improvement. 5.) I love that they sell drink products, especially because I fell in love with my new favorite feel-good sports drink, Nooma--which was recommended to me by Rob. It's just a nice convenience for when you forget to pack a drink (although they do have a water fountain). 6.) I always enjoy their music selection, haha. 7.) The bathrooms are spacious and clean and offer showers/changing rooms. 8.) The team keeps it fun with events like Trivia night and more. 9.) They offer special packages and discounts every now and then, which I have taken advantage of. 10.) The routes are so fun!! And there are so many! I love that there's a lot to choose from at each level. You won't get bored, and you won't ever feel unchallenged. There's also crack wall, a speed wall, and an entire floor of bouldering. I like that the routes are clearly labeled with their difficultly level + fun/creative names. The routes are nicely color-coded, too, so it's easy to find your next hold. 11.) They are very family friendly! 12.) They genuinely care about your safety and prioritize it. 13.) Membership discounts are available. Check out the website for more details! The ONLY main con is that it (seems) expensive for a one-time pass. It may not be worth it to some, unless you do it once OR take advantage of a membership (which may not appeal to everyone). Being in the middle ground is a high price. Final Verdict: I absolutely love it! I spend a lot of my time here. It has really helped me get a jump start on beginning a healthier lifestyle. It's fun, challenging, and an addictive workout. Overall, it has encouraged me to make healthier choices and has been fuel for my drive towards fitness. A membership has been well worth it for me. I always invite my friends and family, and each time I bring a guest, they also have a great experience.

When I joined, I started with a fitness test to assess my mobility and talk about goals. I tried a group work out that day and loved learning some new exercises with kettlebells that I had never tried before- that's saying a lot because I've tried just about every fitness trend and many, many studios all over Baton Rouge. Virtue's method is one of a kind! I recently signed up for my second month and I've already noticed gains in my strength and muscle, from working out just 3-4x per week. The workouts are never the same, and are always perfectly challenging, but with modifications if I need them. Coaches Luke, Charlotte, and Phil are outstanding! They are so attentive and really give attention to everyone. I'm so glad I found this gym and especially love how convenient it is to my home and work.

Several of my friends go to Luke and I decided to give him a try. I'm almost three months in and I haven't felt this good in years. I was afraid to start doing exercises on my own - what would be good for my back, what would be bad? Luke works one on one with you to get your routine exactly right. There are a couple of exercises that just don't feel good on my lower back so he changed the exercise to something that won't hurt me. I have arthritis too and I have gained strength and I have less pain and tightness in my joints. I HIGHLY recommend Luke and Virtue Strength Baton Rouge to anyone who wants to feel better all around.

In the six months that we have been working with her, both individually and together, my husband and I have received the invaluable support and guidance we needed to navigate through a crisis and back to wholeness. Sariah offers several kinds of healing modalities, tailored to your individual needs, and she will meet you where you are, with compassion and no judgment. For me, private sessions have included guided meditation, instruction in Kundalini yoga, constructive conversations, and powerful holotropic breathwork. Each time, I leave feeling cared for, revitalized, and deeply grateful. As I mentioned before, I've also done couples' sessions with my husband. Sariah creates a safe container where we can be ourselves and share honestly, and our work with her has brought us to a much healthier place as partners and parents. Another service Sariah offers is house healings; she came over to perform a beautiful blessing on our family's home, which transformed the energy in our space in a tangible and lasting way. Finally, she teaches group classes (see her website for details), which are lively, soulful, and fun. Sariah cares deeply about what she does, practices what she preaches, and is genuinely devoted to helping others. If you are open to receiving support and ready to connect to your own source of wisdom within, she will be your lifeline.
