FIRST-Time Review of Club Pilates Cardio Sculpting Class-WOW!…read more First of all....I SURVIVED! Second of all..I loved every minute of it!! As a first timer walking into Norfolk's Club Pilates Cardio Sculpt class, I wasn't sure what to expect. I had only done the free intro class last week, so I guess the class was going to do, maybe a little reformer work, some light stretching, nothing too crazy! Baaaby! SPOILER :Mama got a FULL body, heart pumpin', sweat drippin', muscle shakin' workout tuhday!! What surprised me most was how seamless the class blended traditional Pilates movements with cardio burst, like leg circles, jumping lunges, squats, and core-cardio sculpting!!! What?! Yes! My abs, arms, and glutes, are still talking about it. Despite being a newbie, I never felt lost. Pam, the instructor, offered mods and checked on me and others often. Everyone in the room was sweating, smiling and breathing. lol. I'll be back!! Take advantage of a free class. You'll be hooked like I was!

This place just opened a month ago and an amazing addition to the Norfolk are. I just finished an…read moreINTRO class and everyone here were so sweet and welcoming. Pam, who was the instructor, was very informed and made sure everyone were safe in their movements on the reformer. The location is great, it's at the new Railyard at Lambert's Point and there were plenty of parking. They have different membership options and their app makes it really easy to buy and make appointments for classes. I highly recommend trying this place out! If you don't want to pay for membership, they have a $29/class option.

The coaches provide feedback and ensure that you are doing the exercises in a safe way with correct form! The workout typically consists of running/walking on the treadmill, rowing, and strength training. They also have specialty workouts on occasion or several "tread 50" or "strength 50" classes. I've tried both the 50 minute treadmill class and the 50 minute strength class and enjoyed both! This OTF location provides a supportive environment for people of all fitness levels to workout! There are always options for walking rather than running on the treadmill (while still having a challenging incline) or modifications for the strength training if the standard option doesn't work for your body. Also, splat points are a big motivator! Definitely would recommend trying out a class for a well-rounded workout!

I had a 60-minute massage with Kait and had an incredible experience!!!…read more After filling out the form, she asked me about my needs and addressed them during the massage. The massage room is located inside a Karate studio, but once you walk into this massage room, you're transported into a total relaxing experience. They have an air purifier, herbal diffuser, relaxing music, ambient lighting, and a warm massage table. I feel so relaxed, and my hips feel less tight. I'm so glad I found Kait, and look forward to returning :)

I FINALLY got to get a lymphatic massage for 90 minutes. It was so gentle & relaxing, and being…read morearound Carly is just so peaceful in and of itself. I shed some tears on the way there from running late and being so upset at myself for getting the time mixed up, and she started the session with some deep breaths with me, and it really set the tone. I'll be getting a lymphatic massage every 6 months for general health, I think. The room is inside the Norfolk Karate Academy, and it is so peaceful & lovely. I loved the little mini dark chocolate bar at the end- what a treat. I highly recommend this to anyone who may be interested, and I look forward to more visits here myself.

I have been going to Lacey Lee for about 5 months now and I have nothing but positive things to say…read moreabout this gym. I have been a member of many gyms - from Manhattan to California - and attended many different kinds of workout classes. The classes at Lacey Lee are among the best I have attended. The instructors are excellent, enthusiastic and are able to challenge the members without being overbearing. The gym itself is small, but big enough for the intended purposes and the equipment is all in good shape. The classes are variable enough that you never get bored, but consistent enough that you know you will get a great full-body workout every time. Besides all that, the members are very welcoming and the gym has a great community feel. Highly recommended!

The space itself is a massive playground, with room for 20+ to have their own setup every workout. Not only that, they gave the best restaurant recommendations throughout my week in town.

We got to the Box and was greeted by Autumn, she was very engaging, very nice, and super knowledgeable. We learned a lot on this drop in. My wife was able to do her first rope climb!

Needs a revamping bad (equipment and organization). I do like going here to get shots up though.read more

It is a nice place to lift weights and shoot some hoops. It's mostly older, polite, quiet people…read more Polite staff that minds it's business. Used to have a great indoor pool but it has been broken for some time and will remain so for another year I think. The only problem is that they often keep the weight rooms and gymnaisum extremely hot. Not only is it a waste of tax dollars, it is very uncomfortable. Otherwise I'd give it five stars for sure.

All activities are scheduled so don't forget to check the ODU web site before venturing over. From the pool to the locker rooms everything is kept neat and clean.

The students, employees, and volunteers are friendly and very helpful if you need help navigating the SRC. Happy Sporting Yeeps!!!

I usually go to the rec centers in VB cuz I live in VB area but since I'm an Odu student and the…read moremembership is included in my tuition, so why not use it you know. I'm not sure if there's a parking lot near this place but I just park at the garage where the parking office is, it should be a 5-10 min walk(Walking with friends talking gossip stuff maybe 20 mins lol). The check-in process was fast, for first-timers, you'll have to go to the desl and they'll show you how to register, as I remember you have to put your hands on the check-in thing 3 times then you're good to go. Well they'll teach you. After that you just have to punch in your UIN then put your hands on the check-in thing then you're good to go. I didn't have time to use the machines but they look amazing and new, and there is a big variety of machines. There's also a track on the secomd floor for people to jog. And there's a swimming pool, a climbing wall(not always open, look for the schedule online), many rooms for classes(some of them are free, look for them online), squash rackets etc. There's a place where you can rent all the equipment to play, I came here to play basketball so I rent a basketball, and it is a Nike. The reason I took one star off is because of the basketball court. Although it is huge and I like how they put a thing to block the farthest court so the intense games on the other side won't worry about us the chill people having our ball rolling into their court, the floor is slippery, which means it is dirty. The floor is also weird because the ball won't bounce back, I guess they are some cheap materials. Overall, it is a good recreation center to workout, especially it's free for students so you cannot ask for more.

What I love about Hot house is that they're more structured and have more information before you get into heated yoga practice. Although an added charge, they have a road map of postures online that you'll be going through and give you insight as well as modifications if you're just starting out, it's great for beginners as well as advanced practitioners that might want to go back and review. Knowing this helped me feel less awkward and to just focus on my postures. The classes are consistent when it comes to poses. Hot house yoga room is organized with dots that you align your mat with and what's great is that they play music while you practice the poses. Beginner = Stability classes More Experienced = Hot Flow Hot house yoga, is and can be spiritual (I mean yoga itself is spiritual), I hear people say that it feels good and yes I get a good runners high at the end but I still feel like a loose noodle and not so much a stiff pretzel (which is a good thing). What I like about doing heated yoga is that it's a life changing (how do they say it...) paradigm shift. The only thing that I can possibly see Hot house improve upon is probably adding a sauna/steam room to quickly acclimate before the class. It's a challenge in the beginning but that's just me because I enjoy winter more. They have Mat and towel rentals. They offer a good line of yoga products which is with Manduka. I've had a Manduka mat and towel for years and they last a long time. The classes are flexible and affordable which is great.

in 2018, I went to my first hot yoga class at the Norfolk studio and I was so impressed with…read moreeverything about this studio and the practice. Here's the thing - the studio has a very sophisticated HVAC (heating and air flow/filtering system). I don't think I have found another hot yoga studio that provides that level of air quality during practice. Equally important are the people, the staff who check you in and the yoga instructors. Honestly, someone suggested I try hot yoga and I thought there was no way I'd make it through a class. Now, here we are 2023, and I am still practicing at Hot House Yoga. There are many health benefits when you add hot yoga to your practice. Yoga was transforming for me, and I took it up later in life. Then I tried hot yoga and I am very grateful that I found a clean and beautiful place to practice. Thank you Hot House Yoga. Namaste.
