Fitness Unlimited is right down the street from me but I have never actually stepped foot inside…read moreuntil recently when I took a spin class here via ClassPass. Checking in was super easy. There was an iPad/tablet set up by the front desk where I was able to check myself in. I was not sure where the class was located but staff was very helpful and walked me downstairs to the spin class. Their upstairs/main level seemed to be where all the machines are and yoga/pilates classes. The gym was actually a lot bigger than I thought. Downstairs was where spin classes are held and they had a women's locker room down there as well. The locker room was clean, had showers, hairdryers, etc. This was the first spin class I have taken that was not through SoulCycle and the bikes were a little different but similar enough that I was able to figure it out. Overall, not a bad class. I'm used to a bit more choreography on the handle bars but still a nice class! I would totally switch to this gym if only they were open a little later because I do enjoy working out at night sometimes. Parking is a little tricky in this area. If there's not a spot on the main street (Granite), I would check on the side of Bruegger's Bagels or on Adams St.

Ted makes workouts bearable, he mixes things up, and he is great conversation to be around. He is very flexible, comes to you with everything needed, and goes above and beyond on a regular basis. In my entire life, I've never heard words like "you have a fantastic body," so at 38 it is pretty great.

I tried out…read moreSolidcore for a couple of months and had such a terrible experience I was super turned off from pilates altogether Someone recommended C2 to me and I gave it a try via classpass. I cannot recommend this studio enough. The team there is very knowledgeable and super quick to help me with adjustments, etc. to make sure that I can have a workout that is intense, but safe and balanced for me and my body. I'm never afraid to ask for adjustments or corrections on my form because the team here is so kind and encouraging. I look forward to my classes here every week and i highly recommend checking them out!

For the class structure & studio, I would give it 4-5 stars. This 2 star rating is for the…read moreinstructor, Vania Chan. I want to preface this review by saying that I am still very much a beginner at reformer, and have taken 5 classes at the other C2 studio in Dedham and have always had a positive experience there. Being that I am relatively new, I'm very much happy to get pointers & corrections on my technique. However, my experience with Vania bordered on being singled out and almost embarrassed. When doing leg exercises & correcting me on my form, she made a comment about how my "inner thighs are really weak." Later she corrected me on my tailbone placement & made it known to me that she was using me as a demo because my form was the most incorrect out of everyone else's. Like ok??? I didn't sign up for this to be compared to other people in the class who different levels of experience. Shortly after, she makes a comment to the class saying "some of you have more cushion on your body so it's harder to locate the tailbone." I was shocked. I am a size 6-8, & have a curvier body type. It is NEVER okay in my book to comment on other people's body types, especially in a class like this. She finally stopped when I told her I felt singled out, but the damage was already done. For the rest of the class, she proceeded to make comments about how we "shouldn't feel embarrassed to make mistakes" and how she has "never felt shame" being corrected & was not a natural at Pilates herself. Regardless of her intention, these comments were extremely out of line and went beyond simple constructive corrections. Needless to say, I will not be returning. I have never felt so bad about myself in a fitness studios until now.

In August, before my sister's wedding, I booked an appointment at this salon based on a friend's…read morerecommendation. I was very specific about the techniques and cut I wanted and was assured they could handle it. When I arrived, I was told my appointment had been switched to a "more experienced" stylist. Her previous client was unhappy with her color, so instead of focusing on my appointment, the stylist kept going back and forth, working on that client's color while also cutting my hair. She completely ignored me, barely consulted with me, and kept insisting the haircut I wanted "wasn't that hard," as if I was making a big deal over nothing. The result was a terrible haircut that was not what I asked for at all. At first I thought I might be overreacting and tried to give it time, but months later my hair is still completely messed up and uneven from that cut. This was an incredibly disappointing experience, especially before such an important event. Terrible customer service and I would not return or recommend this salon

They split the class into three groups or into two depending on the class, with the 3G class rotates from row machine to floor to treadmill & 2G class alternating between floor + row & treadmill. Personally I enjoy 3G classes because less treadmill time (I loathe running). The instructors are super kind and helpful. My first class, I came in a little early before class started and they went through all of the stations with me, showing me what would be done in class that day. I like going to classes like Orangetheory because it gets me to actually run, since normally I am totally fine with skipping cardio even though I would like to incorporate more cardio in my workouts.

Now, this is a smaller PF location, much smaller than the 24/5 locations nearby like the Dorchester Neponset one & the Quincy one. Also, smaller than the newer Hyde Park one. This one is one floor and upon entering, there are a solid amount of treadmills & cardio machines to your left. Towards the back, you will find only a few smith squat machines, from my memory I believe they only had 2 or 3 of them. The yellow zone in right behind the smith machines at this location. This is a decent location to go to if you live close by but it is important to note that they are limited on machines. Also, lighting here is not the best, very dim lighting and is one of the only PFs that I have been to that actually turns on the lunk alarm, usually to notify people that they are closing soon.
