The music selection was great (think upbeat, fun, and kept you moving), and the coach was genuinely warm and welcoming when I walked in. If you're looking to switch up your routine or try something different, it definitely checks that box. That said, a few things didn't quite land for me. The space is very small and boutique, which is cozy in one sense, but also felt a bit cramped once the class started. I've been Olympic lifting for about two years now, and I noticed one person struggling with their front rack squat form. I didn't feel comfortable stepping in as a newcomer, and it was tough watching the coach not address or correct it. Form matters for safety, especially when we're working under load, so that was a concern for me. Also, the class flow was guided by a single small screen with a timer, and the alert to switch stations was super faint. I found myself constantly glancing around to make sure I wasn't missing transitions because I couldn't really hear the cue. Overall, I loved the idea of the class and the friendliness of the coach, but I would have appreciated more coaching engagement, motivation, and attention to form, especially given the style of training. I think with a bit more hands-on guidance and clearer structure, this class could be a really great experience.

I've definitely met a lot of people that really love it, which is great. Finding an activity you can stick with is the key! I'd have given more stars, but there are a few things that I wish were different: - It's loud. It's so, so, so loud. I wear earplugs, and even with the earplugs, my tinnitus is roaring after class. I basically flee the building as soon as I can. - Cramped. I wish there was more than 2-3 ft of space per person. People adjust sideway or move around to make it work, but it's weirdly cramped. The instructors are fine. Not much correction or assistance, IME. There's not any gym-chat (maybe partly because it's so loud it'd be very difficult to talk to others). Everyone I've been in classes with seem unwilling to interact. So, not a social/CrossFit-like option. If I could find a good weightlifting class anywhere else, I probably would give up going because of my sensory sensitivities, but for now, it's an okay option.

Top location at a top gym…read more I have been coming to anytime fitness for about five years now. When I first came, I was 280 lbs and had lots of health issues related to past circumstances. I loved the staff, Randy, Chris, and Lucas and other clients/ members like myself. After a few years, I lost 85 lbs at this location. I was always encouraged by the friendly, constantly positive staff. After I had heard that they had left, I wondered if the quality of the experiences could be matched moving forward. I met Carl, the new manager of this location while he was still a member. After the transition I was so impressed by the standards, cleanliness, work ethic, and friendliness of the new staff. Carl has been so helpful, unselfish, with unmatched consistency in maintaining this location. Although the old staff will be missed and their personalities certainly cannot be replaced, I think anyone will find that their experience as members of this location will not fall short at all. They have regular personal training and creative challenges to help us find new ways to meet our personal goals. They are warm towards all individual members, they remember names, regularly offer assistance, and never forget to greet anyone coming inside. Not to mention you can come in 24/7 as they are open "Anytime". Highest recommendation. Response from the owner 7 months ago Hey Will, thank you so much for taking the time to share your experiences with us as a long-standing member. I'm so happy to hear that you feel like the members / facility has been well maintained with the transition to new ownership. Carl is amazing and I'm happy to hear you're taken care of throughout it all :)

Rundown: Class Format: Strength Instructor: Jake Class rating: 5 Studio rating: 4.7 I came about 10 minutes early - check-in was easy. I entered the room and was immediately greeted by Jake. He gave me a thorough rundown of everything and his mini-lesson helped me have a great first class. I did the strength class format, which is 15 minutes of rowing and 30 minutes of strength training. It was upper body. While the strength training didn't seem intense at the time, I felt it - then and the next day. It was a great workout and there was free street parking nearby - may be more challenging during peak times, though. Anyway, I'd return.
