I'm so glad I found this Orangetheory location after moving to this part of the Valley. The studio…read moreitself is fantastic--clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully equipped with two restrooms, two showers, and new treadmills. The staff is always welcoming, and the overall community here is truly something special. I've been an Orangetheory Fitness member for nearly 12 years and have visited over 125 studios across the country due to frequent work travel--and I can confidently say Coach Joan is the best, hands down. She immediately made me feel at home at the Tempe studio, always offers thoughtful modifications for my injuries, and genuinely loves what she does. Her energy is infectious in the best possible way. Whether you're visiting from out of town or looking to start a new fitness routine, I highly recommend this studio. Give the front desk a call--they'll take great care of you!

I haven't rated this location yet-- it's 5 stars. I rotate between this south Tempe gym and the…read moreScottsdale one, located on E. Indian school Rd. I like them equally since every OTF I've been to in state, and in other states, are set up similarly so you can just hop into any gym and get a great workout. This Tempe location is conveniently located on Guadalupe Rd near 101, in the Fry's shopping center. There's always parking, the instructors are great, and the staff is friendly. I will complain about one thing, and this isn't related to this OTF location itself but the OTF policies in general, I just placed a 30 day freeze on my account, I'll be traveling out of the country for almost a month. I was told there is $15 freeze fee, which I think is pretty lame. It's not like I could use my classes if I wanted to, so charging me to freeze just seems gratuitous. But that is corporate, capitalist America for you. I don't agree with this fee, but I'm not bothered enough to stop working out here. And OTF knows that. Anyway. OTF Tempe is great otherwise.

I absolutely love orange theory!…read more I started out last year in October with Coach Megan. My first class was "hell week" and she was so patient and helped me through that work out and so many after that. I was so nervous as I never lifted weights before but she coached me through it. I started working another job and going back to school for a masters . I thought I was going to have to give it up, but there are so many classes you can attend at all different hours of the day, seven days a week! I work 2 and half jobs, go to school and there are still sessions that accommodate my schedule. It's truly amazing and perfect for busy schedules !!! Next, is coach Kat is phenomenal! She has this inspirational opening each workout that motivates you for the whole work out. She is so encouraging and is also so incredibly helpful. Orangetheory Pecos has the best coaches and the best challenges! Truly so happy

The decision to close the South Mountain studio is an enormous mistake. This location may be small,…read morebut it embodies everything Orangetheory stands for--community, consistency, and heart. It is truly a "small but mighty" studio that has built something incredibly special. I also want to emphasize that there are no comparable alternatives in this area. For many of us, this studio is not interchangeable with another location--it is our fitness home, and its loss will be deeply felt. Michelle Stanneart is, without question, one of the most dedicated and hardworking employees you have. She carries the roles of head coach, studio manager, and so much more, and does so with an unmatched level of commitment and care. People like Michelle are the reason members stay, grow, and succeed. Closing this studio doesn't just remove a location--it dismantles a community that reflects the very best of the Orangetheory brand.

I LOVE THIS GYM! I…read moredecided to finally get healthy and fit, I'm no longer a spry teenager! To start: this gym is focused on scheduled group classes, it's not a gym that you can come into at any time. One nice thing about this gym is they allow you to try your first class for free. You come in 30 minutes early to get a tour of the gym and get the whole explanation of how it works. I loved my first class, so I signed up! I've been really loving the classes. They go between cardio and weights, so you can focus on different parts of your body during the whole class. The coaches are so great at explaining what to do as well as keeping the motivation up! These classes are great if you're a beginner and don't know how to work out, if you like the group aspect, if you like the motivation of coaches and other gym goers, or if you like structured workouts! Come try a class out, it's free! This gym is a bit pricy, but I think it is worth it for where I am in life at the moment.

I hate running...so you know what is the best thing to do about it... start going to Orange Theory…read moreFitness! :) The workouts are well designed so that I'm progressively getting better with my running. I just did the hot chocolate 5k in Phx and I do attribute some of my success to run to OTF. I love this location. Trainers Victoria and Taylor are awesome. I enjoy the combo workouts of treadmill, rower, and weight floor. A friend convinced me to workout with her, and I already have access to gyms and weights so it's a bit of duplication for me, but it's really about the high intensity workouts with good and loud music with a good fitness community, for me.

Tried the free first class and loved the workout we did. Victoria our coach was amazing, she is…read morevery knowledgeable and motivating. Super helpful as well with our form and making adjustments, she would be a big reason if I decided to join orange theory! The music matched the workouts, everything felt clean. The showers are nice and it's more like a private shower/bathroom situation. The workout itself is cardio, rowing, and weights. Easy to follow along and I would love to come back!

UPDATE- I have been…read morea member for 8 years now, still hitting goals and getting better all the time. I am now a trainer here actually! The workouts have stayed varied and focused to all around fitter and as a result feel the best I ever have. I have been a member of the Hub for 3 years. We have such a great community that always rally around each other. We push each other, have fun and work hard. Nothing quite like hitting a PR and everyone cheering for you! The variety of workouts and the way they are able to scale to all abilities is second to none. Give this place a shot, you won't regret it!

After paying approximately $450 each, 26 students signed up for the November, 2011 10-week session…read more After taking 19 of the scheduled 60 classes that had been paid for, the students arrived at Farrell's on December 6th, 2011 to find the building was dark and closed with a sign from the landlord (not the tenant) -- this looked to be a lockout due to a no pay by the Farrell's franchise owner. As new students, we were all shocked (to say the least). Did I mention that not only am I out the money...but my daughter who paid her money for Farrell's is out the money (she is a full time student and used 2 of her PAYCHECKS)!!!!! It gets worse!!! My husband lost his money and all of the students are now trying to work out in a park!!!! I have put in an email to the owner, Lance Farrell, and will update this REVIEW if I hear from him. In the mean time, I would suggest Cross-Fit or Orange Theory Fitness - both in Chandler. **************************WOW************************

THE PERSONAL TRAINING AGREEMENT IS A SCAM!!!! Never, and I…read moremean NEVER, sign up for the personal training at Eos. It's a complete scam. I was told I could sign up for 8 sessions, paid over 4 payments, and once the last payment is complete, I could cancel effective immediately. Well I've been trying to get it cancelled for literally weeks now and they just keep dragging me in circles as money keeps getting pulled out of my account. I'm at the point where I am having to email the Regional Manager in the HOPES he can do something to help me, because the gym manager basically said tough luck and LITERALLY said I should wait around a couple more weeks and just see if the cancellation happens!! I don't know about him, but I don't have HUNDREDS of dollars to let them take while I just wait and see if it works!! They have now charged me $300 more than I agreed to, and there's no end in sight!! Other than this scam of a program, the gym is fine in general. It's kept clean and has lots of machines and amenities. It's often pretty busy though, so keep that in mind. The normal membership is fine, and I've enjoyed Eos classes in the past, though I haven't taken any at this specific location. Also keep in mind that there's a 1-month waiting period for cancelling a general membership, so plan ahead. They don't make that clear at all until you try to cancel. Overall, I'd say 4 stars for the gym in general, just cause the staff aren't always very helpful, but zero stars and a giant WARNING sign for their more expensive programs like personal training.
