The cost is $260 for 1 month which is not cheap but also not like, Equinox prices for personal training. Will likely continue in the summer/fall 2022 if they have the space. Parking is a little tough if you do not have a Somerville Permit (need to find a meter in the AM or just hope you do not get towed in front of the Car Wash place). Overall a great spot in the Cambridge/Somerville area. Reminds me of Ethos in the South End.

For more than a year, I was a member of this gym because I loved that it was a women-only space. I…read morebelieved it would be a place where all women felt supported, respected, and welcome. Unfortunately, my experience was very different. On several occasions, I felt a cold and unfriendly attitude toward me from the moment I walked through the door. As a Hispanic woman, I never felt completely welcome. The situation with the guest passes was simply the last straw. My daughter had previously been a member of this gym and is still in their system. She does not come with me regularly, which is exactly why using one of my guest passes seemed like a reasonable option. However, the way the situation was handled and the way I was treated left me feeling uncomfortable, embarrassed, and undervalued as a customer. I am not asking for special treatment. I am asking for the basic respect that every person deserves. It is sad to realize that a place that should make women feel safe and welcome can sometimes make some women feel excluded. After this experience, I decided to find a place where kindness, respect, and professionalism are part of the culture--not the exception.

The studio still feels like a second home to me. There are now more varieties of classes than ever before, the memberships are affordable, and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable.

They offer gentle assists, anatomically safe instruction (Jenna is meticulous about this), and the right balance of challenge and variation for all levels. I come from a different tradition than Jenna's training but have always left learning something new, and appreciating her style, humility and compassion. The space is warm, beautifully done with a combination of greenery, that reclaimed wood post and beam architecture, and clean lines. There's not a lot of Hindu influence here - their music selections are mostly ambient, modern relaxation or upbeat tracks that don't compete with instruction. Don't get confused -- enter through the Main St. door, as if you were going to the bank, but keep going into the building, and up the first half flight of stairs, you're there! This is a wonderful business in Medford, I want to help hang permanent decal signs on the windows, as it's really hard to know that studio is even there. I discovered it by accident when visiting a friend. Gem in Medford. Support a small business owner offering really good yoga with a sincerely open heart.

I have never really been terribly into physical activity. I've dabbled with running, pilates, yoga,…read moreetc... but nothing ever really stuck. Last year I decided to start taking my health seriously and make working out an actual habit in my life. I was tired of hearing of all the nasty things that I was saying to myself about my body and fitness level. After a significant amount of prodding, I went with a friend of mine to a Top Performance Fitness Bootcamp. My first TPF bootcamp was HARD, really effin' hard! But I swear to all of you that I felt high as a kite on the endorphins that it kicked off for at least 24 hours afterwards. i'd be lying if I said that TPF bootcamps are a not a bitch, but they are the kind of bitch that you need in your life to get your ass in gear. I don't do get to do them three times a week like some of the other diehard bootcampers, but I try to keep it in my workout repertoire once a week. It helps to keep me motivated in my other workouts as well. I am proud to say that I now work out regularly, several times a week. I have dropped a solid chunk of weight and I am continuously getting stronger and more fit. I have never felt so good! And I really have to give a lot of credit to my participation in bootcamp. I have learned a great deal about fitness and proper form from Anthony, the trainer who runs TPF. Besides being a good egg and a sweet guy, Anthony is very knowledgeable in his field and is attentive to each of his clients. He doesn't yell at you like some crazy militant, but always makes sure that everyone is getting a good challenging workout. Bootcamp is never boring, I am challenged in a new way every single week. Plus, we have a pretty good time, there are always tunes and quite a few hearty laughs! I highly recommend it to anyone who really wants to make a change and vastly improve their level of fitness.

The results I have seen working with Founder/Head Trainer Anthony, has been remarkable. Let's just say, I don't go anywhere without getting compliments on how good I look since starting with TPF. The style of training combined with the friendly and professionalism of the staff is hard to beat. TPF's bootcamps have also become part of my regular workout routine, and they are fab! We've developed quite the community and I actually look forward to every sweaty, challenging session. TPF has changed my life forever; my health and fitness have become a priority and I couldn't be happier or feel better. Thank you!
