I have been working with John regularly but have also had the opportunity of meeting another trainer Matt. Both John and Matt are incredibly professional, dedicated and hardworking. From my first day at R3 to this very day they listen to my goals, concerns and help me achieve my goals in weight loss and getting stronger. They answer any questions I have and they truly want me to do better. I look forward to going to my sessions there. My only regret is not joining sooner!

I have been using trainers on and off for almost 20 years - at Apogee I have found EXACTLY what I need to achieve and maintain my long term goals with training and nutrition. My husband and I have been working with RICKY for close to a year. His assistance and knowledge continue to be crucial and much appreciated. He works with health and physical limitations, and has a plethora of useful information that we have incorporated in our workouts and nutritional routines. My husband quotes him daily! I find the staff at Apogee to be friendly and professional. Payment is done on a monthly basis; it is reasonable and worth every penny. I STRONGLY recommend them.

GOTO PLANET FITNESS. I joined this gym intending to work with a personal trainer. I meet with…read moreLouis Rodriguez, the person in charge of the personal training department, and signed up. I had told him I wouldn't be able to start for another 6 weeks so we scheduled my first 2 appointments and decided we would do the rest when we got closer to that actual beginning of the personal training. Unfortunately, when I got home, I read further through the contact and realized there were things in it that Louis never disclosed to me. There was a fee of $50/month he never mentioned and with the way he set it up I would have paid $320 before I even had my first personal training appointment, Furthermore, when giving me a tour I asked him if the gym has a NuStep machine. He said yes and motioned to the area behind us in the back. Unfortunately, no such machine existed there. The contract stated that I could cancel within the first 2 days if I sent an email to a certain address. So, I sent an email to said address, showed it to Louis and he said I would get a check in the mail for my refund. Of course, said check never arrived. I stopped by the gym multiple times and either he wasn't their or was busy. I had to call multiple times because he was never available and apparently has no email address or voicemail. If sending an email to the gyms main email address on their site was no help. In the end I would avoid this gym or at least their personal training department. Lous Rodriguez will knowingly lie right to your face and will make it difficult to get in contact with him. Of course, if you're signing up & giving them money for a service it will be completely the opposite. I was signed up for training sessions among other things that I never signed up for myself. I also received multiple spam emails and calls from them. Just go to Planet Fitness. Everything there is much more straight forward and honest when it comes to signing any contract.

I'm still on my journey to being the best version of me but Tania was influential in getting me this far. I would recommend her as a trainer to anyone!

I had a very disappointing and uncomfortable experience at this studio. I came in for a trial class…read morewith my younger sister, who is a teenager and Chinese. She was fully registered in the system, and her name was even written on the welcome board. She arrived before me, told the front desk she was there for the class, and said she needed to use the restroom. Instead of welcoming her, they turned her away and sent her back outside. When I arrived, she was visibly upset and confused. Only when I walked in with her did the staff say, "Oh, we didn't know she was here for a class -- we thought she just walked in off the street." Another employee even said, "Well, she did say she was here for a class." The front desk laughed nervously. The implication behind their reaction was hard to miss, and it was unacceptable -- especially given that her information was in the system and she followed the proper check-in process. On top of that, when I later tried to cancel my membership, I was told I had to come into the studio in person. I've belonged to multiple OTF locations in CT and other states, and this is absolutely not standard. It felt like a deliberate barrier designed to benefit the studio at the customer's expense. Overall, the experience left a bad taste in my mouth. I would not recommend this location; there are plenty of other studios where both members and prospective members are treated with basic respect, professionalism, and fairness.

I attended four classes when I was home for the holidays and I found them equally as challenging as those of other studios. I only have two complaints: Parking is a bit rough; the studio is at the end of a pretty crowded plaza. The workout stations are really tight; there's not much room on the floor to spread out. Something nice: The staff had a sign that welcomed new members and members from other studios! This was so sweet. It's never happened to me at Orangetheory West Hartford or other locations that I was only briefly visiting.
