The trainers are motivating, and the community is very friendly and encouraging. It's worth noting that most of the members are women -- mainly middle-aged -- so men might feel a little outnumbered, but everyone is welcoming and focused on fitness. Overall, it's a great place to get in shape and be part of a positive, goal-oriented group!

I never in a million years would have expected to fall in love with working out, in a boot camp environment especially, but I have become obsessed with Burn. The trainer at this locations's name is Amos and he really is amazing. He is not at all what you would expect a trainer would be like at a boot camp. Amos is 100% encouraging, positive, and helpful while finding the perfect spot that pushes you to your limits. I have seen him modify these work outs for people with a wide variety of injuries so that every workout can be done by every person. Each workout every week (open 6 days a week) focuses on a different area of your body to target and is planned so that you can participate for most days even if you are sore. Burn is only 45 minutes but it is incredibly fast paced and before you know it, it's over and so is your workout time for the day! Burn focuses on the training of women but there are a few co-ed classes. They also have a free Saturday class if you are wanting to give it a try. They also offer free childcare for parents! They are usually running specials for people who want to try out Burn without fully committing such as a free two week trial as well as 8 week programs for discounted prices. Just go check this place out and see why everyone loves feeling the burn!!!!

I usually frequent the West Ashley location, but it is only a few months old so it's not yet on Yelp. Emily Valentine teaches core vinyasa on Sundays, and it is always a great time! She has an amazing playlist and is always motivating and supportive. I always leave feeling like I really worked out my whole body and I am ALWAYS sore the next few days, but it's a good feeling because I know I worked hard in Emily's class! I also highly recommend their assisted deep stretch class. It's very relaxing and it feels so good to stretch and take your mind off of everything going on. The studio spaces are always clean and well taken care of. There's only been a couple times where a class was really crowded, but we always make it work!

This is the noisiest yoga studio that could possibly exist. Why? Why do you do this to guests?…read more We entered the lobby to cocktail-party level chitchat, which didn't seem to phase anyone but my friend and me. Nice Staff showed us to lockers. All that could have been ok if the class had been ... enjoyable enough to do. Why did the teacher have a headpiece for screaming instructions, when there is no way the room wouldn't be covered just fine by her voice. I tried for about fifteen minutes, trying to follow her sometimes muted screaming by looking around me. I gave up and went to the front desk where they kindly said this was normal and offered me a cup of earplugs to pick from. I took them and used them for about three minutes when I gave up. The place purposefully makes it so loud that they have odes of earplugs in a cute little jar on the counter. That's just messed up. I usually do vinyasa flow, my friend does Bikram and neither of us really knew what this class was. Worst $30 one a class pass ever.

The amount of knowledge, experience and care in this gym keeps me coming back every week. I was never into exercising, but 5 years ago, when I met AJ Hickey, I knew I needed to do something to get more physically fit. I walked in not able to do a single push up and now I'm building muscles and losing fat. If you want real results and not some fad, visit the Dungeon in Summerville.

This place was everything I needed exactly when I needed it. I came here looking for programmed workouts and a change to my routine. I ended up getting highly skilled coaching, programming and a community of people that make me feel welcome. Whether you're a first time crossfitter, a seasoned veteran, a drop-in just passing through or a 60 year old who has never worked out before and feel it's time... you've got a place here. This place really embodies the statement: "CrossFit isn't for everyone, but it is for anyone."

After having an exceptional experience with a crossfit that I loved in Asheville, every CF I have…read moretried since then fell a little flat. After moving to CHS I tried a handful of different things and just never found the right fit for me. After baby #2 I wanted to try again... AOCF was running a challenge, 6 weeks of clean eating and at least 16 classes, setting goals, etc. I decided to go for it, a challenge is right up my alley and I knew the accountability would be good. Here's the thing, the places that left me feeling like it wasn't quite what I was looking for sometimes felt thrown together with classes (like 15 minutes of a body weight workout... if I'm coming for an hour class, I want to use that full hour and get the most out of my time). Also, I want good coaching... Kelly and Megan are awesome with this. And I found myself missing the community that I had built over time with CFA, AOCF has a really fun group of people and they are intentional about building community. So, I ended up being able to do a little over 5 weeks of the challenge (before going out of town for a bit). I dropped 17lbs and not only did my time get a lot better with the workout, but I can feel the changes, I feel better. I'm looking forward to continuing with AOCF and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to someone else!

All the OT's I've visited, I always get a great work out in. While I do enjoy the structure of…read morethese classes, I do think it's a place for people who love that group class atmosphere that don't particularly like to work out alone or perhaps don't have the motivation or is new to working out. I think they have a good system of where they have stations split up and have modifiers for people who can't perform certain exercises. The class I took was fun, good coach and friendly staff. While I don't see myself spending that much money monthly for a gym like this, I do respect what they do and that the people who work their are genuine and create an environment that helps people feel comfortable and challenging. The classes are accommodating to all walks of life!

The space is pretty basic but comes with lockers, clean bathrooms and a shower. The "gym" itself is broken up by punching bags, weight benches and polymeric equipment along the wall. You go through 8 rounds alternating between the sections. They have all sorts of cool lights and projections around the room and the music is BUMPIN! So you almost forget you're totally busting your ass! The instructors/coaches are great! Really motivating and always willing to help/demonstrate the exercises if you forget or are confused. Kelly and Sav were super awesome and I'm excited to take more of their classes. This is a tough workout for 45min but you feel like you've really worked for it! So I recommend giving it a shot if you're looking for a new way to spice up your workout routines!
