I had my bachelorette party in Newport and wanted to do a workout class. I reached out to Kathy at…read moreelevate fitness and she got back to me right away to schedule a private workout class. The class was a fast paced total body workout that included the treadmill, bike, tower and weights that could be modified to the various fitness levels of my bridesmaids. Kathy's coaching style was perfect for our group - she pushed us to work harder and motivate us, but was extremely personable. We had a great time, worked up a sweat and got to finish the class with mimosas. If I lived near the studio I would definitely attend fitness classes at elevate on a regular weekly basis!

I have been training with Colleen Aull for about five years and I consider myself a student of this…read morewise woman as much as I do a "client". She has opened up a new world by teaching me about my body and how to use it efficiently. I feel muscles now that I never knew I had. When she re-introduced me to PIlates, it was part of a life changing phenomenon which slowly and steadily eliminated decades of back pain. Her laser focus in making assessments about my body then programming my fitness accordingly is as much an art as it is a science. At 68 years old, I feel stronger than I did when I was young. I now have more flexibility, stability and physical confidence than I have in years. She has helped me recover through various orthopedic surgeries with Pilates and other techniques - all more successfully than the required physical therapies. She also takes care of my overall well-being in subtle ways and deeply understands the connection between physical, emotional, and mental health. I feel so lucky to have the benefit of her wisdom, compassion and expertise. She is not just a trainer and a coach but also a gracious role model for living a healthy. full and engaged life. Her daughter Remy is equally gifted and is a master MFR practitioner in addition to an amazing trainer. The studio is a safe, non judgmental haven for people who care about their health and fitness.

I love this gym. It's clean, spacious, and the music isn't too loud. Further, the equipment is…read morescrupulously maintained: I've never heard a squeak or a grind. I like to use the C2 erg machine; they grease the chain and keep a fresh battery in the PM5 rowing computer. But that's not what's leading me to write this review. This morning, there was an older gentleman in the gym. He had memory issues: I met him once, but he met me five times. I noticed the owner subtly keeping an eye on him. When he finished his workout, the owner asked the gentleman's permission to call his daughter, then escorted him out. He did this respectfully and in a caring manner. When one of the other patrons mentioned it, the owner talked about the gentleman with as much respect and care as he'd demonstrated earlier. Honestly, the whole thing was so wholesome that I got choked up in the middle of my set. TL;DR: Great gym. Absolutely outstanding owner. Six, eight, ten stars.

As the other reviews here stated this is a small little gym that is rather dingy with an…read moreunresponsive staff. Apparently, however when there is a billing issue instead of approaching their customers with courtesy to try to rectify the issue, they threaten to send them to collections. I received a text message from the owner this evening close to 8 pm threatening to send my issue to collections. This was literally the first time I was contacted even though the owner says I was contacted 3 times prior. She said they must not have my correct information, but yet she was able to contact me??? So how then could they have contacted me 3 times. It is absolutely ludicrous. Not surprising though, I did a little research on the owners. Young, inexperienced, and clearly ill mannered with no professional business knowledge. The only reason that the two locations of these gyms owned by this couple continue to operate is simply because there are limited options in our area.

The three top reasons that I LOVE this gym are... Motivation…read moreUniqueness Cleanliness "Motivation" because the owners and staff are filled with enthusiasm and expertise thus creating a positive environment to challenge you and to help you to reach your fitness goals while maintaining joy throughout the process. I am always greeted with smiles and encouragement and there are so many classes and fitness props to choose from that you can never get bored with the same routine, there are a plentitude of options everyday to keep everyone motivated and to help all of us to reach our goals! I say "us" rather than "me" because Pulse Gym is a team of members working together towards the same goal, to become the best that we can be while encouraging each other along the way to ultimate fitness! "Uniqueness" because this gym is very special due to the many services offered outside of fitness. I can workout, relax with a sauna, take a shower followed by a cup of tea or coffee then go to the hair/makeup salon and if needed, get a spray tan. Once finished with all the options available I can then change into a pretty dress and Ta-Dah! I'm all ready to return to work or to go out on the town for the evening :) Oh, and if you have children the child care gym is off the chart in being AWESOME! The owners are on the cutting edge of the industry in knowing how to combine the perfect place to get it all done with professionalism and class all without stress :) "Cleanliness" is the most important factor to me in choosing a gym and Pulse Gym and Studios surpasses all my expectations! Every single day that I arrive at the Pulse Gym or to their other locations I am greeted with a clean space, fresh air and cold filtered water. These are the three necessities that are important to me to allow for the best foundation for a workout environment. Workout towels are also provided as are cleaning stations to cleanup your area after your workout. The bathrooms and showers are sparking clean as well! This is by for the very best place to workout on the island! So what are you waiting for !?! Try it out as soon as you can, this fabulous boutique gym will not disappoint!

I have to travel for my job and I don't always stay in hotels but opt to stay in an Airbnb or with friends when I can. I look for gyms that offer day passes or punch cards. Core's punch card never expires so I can save money and use it the next time I'm in town. They keep it on file so I don't have to remember to bring it. They are the cleanest facility with an upstairs cardio room in addition to the various machines and free weights. I highly recommend this place. The staff was friendly, the changing rooms and showers were clean, and I was able to get an early workout and shower in before having to go to my meetings. It all very conveniently located right on Aquidneck Ave.
