I stayed at an Airbnb in downtown Seattle for two weeks and urban fit was just down the block. Great environment and all the equipment you need. Shout out to Osiris! read more

I booked a tour with Osiris on the website and showed up with my service dog in training. Upon seeing us, Osiris appeared very upset and impatient. Instead of showing me around the gym, he bluntly asked me "What do you want to know?" And then for every question I asked, he would give a brief answer and then tell me how that information is available on the website already. It seemed like he couldn't wait to throw me out of the door. In the end, he sarcastically said he thought service dogs were supposed to behave better even though my dog didn't cause any trouble (no barking or littering) the entire time. He just curiously looked around a couple of times. This is the most unprofessional tour I have ever experienced. Not even any basic respect or manners. I recommend that you stay away no matter how cheap their membership fees seem to be. read more

I stood outside Urban Fit Studios at precisely 2 minutes prior to the appointment for my tour. Osiris came out in a huff and said that he checked and I wasn't there 5 minutes prior to my appointment. I still had to call his 2 numbers to get a hold of him. It's a crappy gym with old equipment and no A/C. There isn't even a decent stationary bicycle. He has never been anything but rude. I think he needs to lay off the 'roids. read more

The owner is a very easy going person. He care about his members, resolve issues with no problem. The price is good. Good space and equipments. Not many people so not crowded read more

Urban Fit is one of the best gyms in Seattle! The management is nice and there are a lot of trainers who hold sessions here if you want to schedule some personal training. Otherwise, it has everything you need, is not over crowded, and you will often see a lot of the same faces of people who are committed to fitness. I truly believe Urban Fit is a gym that is great for all, but especially so if you take weightlifting and personal fitness more seriously and want to have some personal space (mentally and physically) while you do your thing! read more

Great spot for lifting and cardio. Local-owned, neighborhood gym. Decent price for monthly membership. Fairly quiet so no need to wait in lines for equipment. Big fan. read more

Plain and simple, I have never had more progress physically or felt more focused mentally at any gym than at Urban Fit. There is a vibe here that's difficult to describe. So let me start with the "negatives." It's certainly not the "shiniest" gym around. It's not part of a chain, not a "big box" gym, not filled with the latest branded workout clothing and exercise equipment. It's "old school." The weights have obviously been collected over many years. The equipment, although absolutely functional, shows wear from prolonged use. The gym itself is in a basement whose age is evident. But I personally find these aspects crucial to the "vibe" I mentioned earlier. When you step into this gym, you feel like you're there to do one thing: work out. That focus manifests itself very directly in my workouts. Whether I'm stretching (plenty of mats and floor space), lifting (there are a plethora of machines and free weights), or doing aerobics (jump ropes, treadmills, ellipticals, rowing machines, etc), I find myself completely absorbed in my workout unlike any other gym. There are some trainers with clients during peak hours (~4-6pm), but even then you will rarely if ever have to wait to use any equipment. The gym is constantly evolving and adjusting to optimize floor space and I never feel cramped or crowded. The owner (Osiris) is friendly, helpful, and fair, and he knows what he's doing - he's a competitive, nationally-ranked bodybuilder. I can't speak to the personal trainers since I only train solo here (and I believe they just use the gym and are not actually "employees"), but the gym certainly seems to provide them with everything they need to effectively train clients. And I certainly feel like I have everything I need here. Bottom line: this gym does not have all the amenities of, say, a Gold's, and it might not be as "polished" as the "boutique" gyms you often find in Seattle, but you will rarely have to wait for equipment, it's pretty inexpensive, it's convenient, and you get the focus of an old school bodybuilding gym no matter what kind of workout you're doing. I can't recommend this place enough. read more

They were great. Osiris and his son are totally dedicated individuals who were both friendly and unique. The first visit where I signed up for a membership I found myself chatting for over an hour with Osiris afterwards! I never once felt like they tried to upsell me or pressure me for anything. They wanted to work with me when I decided THIS was the place, but I would probably have to move in a few months so I wasn't able to give a year commitment. They gave me a really good deal. In terms of the typical things one would worry about with a gym, it was never crowded, I always had the machines I needed, and the 2 bathrooms never had a line. It was also very clean. So in conclusion, I'm sorry I had to move and if I wasn't I'd still be at this lovely place. The care and personal dedication that run this place isn't something I thought I'd find in a gym that had the machines I was looking for. Too bad I can't drag them to West Seattle. read more

I highly recommend Urban Fit gym, it is the best gym that I have ever belonged to, for my needs. Overall experience: this gym focuses me on my workout fantastically and has everything I need. It's not a gym where people are socializing a lot. Nobody's walking the floor trying to sell training, classes, products. It's not uncommon for me to be the only person in the gym. The owner, Osiris, is approachable and helpful. This gym is a place for me to push myself without distraction. The weights situation is great. There are plenty of bar, dumbbells, and stations, many mobile benches as well. A fairly complete range of machines is available. I almost never end up waiting for someone else to finish up; the one exception is that there is a single free squat rack, so occasionally I'd wait on that. The cardio setup also has a good range - treadmills, rowing, elliptical. Again, never needed to wait on anything. There's one TV on the wall that the cardio machines face. I've never messed with it so not sure whether users can control the channel. Other workout related stuff: Plenty of open space for stretches, body weight exercise, etc., pull up bars around the gym, punching bags, jump rope. Really a great assortment. With all the raving - there are things that don't matter to me but may be negatives for some. For example, there are no classes/group workouts (as far as I know) and a lot of people love those. No towel service, gotta bring your own towel (there are towels for wiping down stations). As another reviewer said below, it's not "shiny". But what it is, is the best gym I've ever used. read more

I just got done with my first workout with Cameron at Urban Fit. I was quite spent, but he mixed it up just right and it ended before I knew it. He read my abilities quite well. I remained good and fatigued for half an hour afterwards. The place is focused on the workout, not showy and designerly. Good vibe to the whole place. Met Osiris too. Friendly and professional. Looking forward to more workouts there. read more

I LOVE this gym! It has all of the equipment that you need, and is never too crowded. It's a very welcoming place, no matter where you are in your work out journey. Everyone who goes there is respectful and considerate - they wipe down equipment and ALWAYS re-rack their weights. The owner and trainers and super nice and it's a great place to get a solid workout. Best gym I have ever belonged to (and I have belonged to many!) read more

Urban Fit Studios is a spacious, well equipped gym that doesn't ever get crowded, even at peak times. Training with Kyle has been a great experience. As well as guiding you in the gym, he provides advice on diet and what to do outside of the gym to maximize your progress. He's totally down to earth, relatable and always brings a positive and motivating attitude. I would recommend Kyle 100%. read more

Great gym. I learned a lot from the owner and his son. They taught me how to workout correctly and achieve actual results. Urban Fit is much better than the large box gyms. Very professional and easy to work with. read more

This place is awesome!! I've been a member here for almost 3 months and I love it! Osiris is an awesome trainer and always around if you need help or forgot how to do a new exercise. My fiancee and I didn't want to do a golds gym or a 24hr fitness so this place was perfect for us. The rates are incredible if you get the personal training sessions included in ur monthly dues. Seriously, I'm a little afraid people are going to catch on to this diamond in the rough. It's very "no frills". There's one tv and two bathrooms but honestly it makes it easier to just get in and get out without getting distracted. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to get fit in a gym with a community vibe. read more

I didn't know they made gyms like this anymore! If you're tired of the status quo chain health clubs and fad workouts and ready to actually get healthy and fit rather than just be seen, this is your place! To actually leave a place and feel stronger and more confident is what I look for in a gym and that's exactly what happens here. Osiris if not one of his other amazing trainers will get you to your fitness goal guaranteed. Hope to see you there! read more

What I like about this gym is it's simplicity. Sure, you could spend the same amount of money at an LA Fitness, 24 Hour Fitness, or Golds and get more current equipment, but the pretentious and often stuffy atmosphere gets old very fast. Urban Fit is a gym, plain and simple. They have weights, good trainers, as awesome, no-nonsense owner, and it's a place to go and work out. They don't try to oversell you on anything, they just want you to come in and train, and get healthy. Plus, I've almost never had to wait for a piece of equipment. Highly recommended. read more

I come here at peak times (5-6:30pm) and it's never over-crowded. Trainers and other members are always courteous, and it has all the weight-lifting equipment you need. Not as fancy as some other places in the neighborhood, but if you came to lift some weights, appreciate a good value, and don't want to wait for machines, then this is the place for you. read more

This is a great gym, so long as your goals are to get a solid work out in. I've been going here since they changed locations and it's been great. The gym is simply focused on the basics: There's plenty of water, clean bathrooms and showers, plenty of machines, treadmills, weights and trainers. Nothing fancy, but everything you need to have a solid work out to stay in shape and really feel positive. If you're into workout/dance classes, this isn't the place. If you're looking for attention or for something casual, also not the place. But if you're looking to simply work out and be around other people who are goal driven, this place is great. Osiris is awesome, really positive, laid back and really knows his game (he's got a freakin' sword in his office that he won for body building!). He can provide you with workouts that deliver as long as you're committed. I see other trainers using the facilities as well, and they also look like they have some decent workouts to offer. The space isn't huge, but it never feels crammed and I've never had to wait for an area, machine or anything. All around the atmosphere is great, feels very focused on simply working out and getting things done. If you're looking for a gym on the hill, Urban Fit is very affordable, very laid back, no-judgement and no-nonsense. This is the perfect neighborhood gym! Check it out! read more

Urban Fit is a great space to work out. Osiris takes great care to make sure you are working out to best suit your ability. And you grow fromt there. If you want bells and whistles - this isn't for you. What you get at Urban Fit: a safe, functional space with everything you need to workout. That's why you go there. read more

I looked all around Capitol Hill for an affordable, straightforward gym where I could do my own thing - and Urban Fit was perfect. No pressure to take classes or buy extras- it is just a place to come do weight training and elliptical, according to my own schedule. read more

Urban Fit Studio is a fantastic, no nonsense, old school gym with great hours and prices. The trainers are knowledgeable and I never once felt pressured into buying anything like other gyms. The environment is very comfortable and not judgmental. And there aren't any trendy workout gimmicks which seem to be the norm these days. read more

I can't say enough good things about this community gym and its owners! In the fall 2014, I was seeking a gym where I could actually get things done, not be crowded, and have help when I need it. I started training with the level of membership that allows for one training session, and I was introduced to the gym and had a introductory training session with Osiris. He immediately put me at ease, was non-judgmental about where I was at fitness wise, built a training program that fit my needs and level, and pushed me to do great things. I eventually switched to working with Cam twice a month (and on my own twice a week) and I haven't looked back! It is the longest I have ever stuck with a fitness program (almost 2 years) and I feel stronger and stronger with each month, and it is absolutely because of Urban Fit. They really care about your well being, are friendly and knowledgeable about everything from muscle groups and anatomy to nutrition and small changes that I can make to improve my health overall. I feel incredibly supported. This community and owners focus on strength and improvement, not on the scale, and that is so important. There are people working out from all walks of life, all ages, genders, sizes, fitness levels, and it's a very positive atmosphere. Like others have said, it is not a big box gym, and is a smaller basement space, but I feel immediately at home there, everyone is friendly, helpful, and it is never crowded! If you are considering joining a gym, you should absolutely look into Urban Fit. Their prices can't be beat (two sessions included in membership for around 90, which is unheard of compared to personal training sessions that can start at 75 each at other gyms), and the community is worth every penny! read more
