Best place to get you stronger physically and also mentally. That's how Marine does for and you will get to experience it. I have been training here for a while both midtown and Williamsburg location, I gained tremendous strength and got me in way better shape! This place is awesome and hope you will get to experience the class ;) read more

See all

This is the hardest workout I've done, and I have trained for and run in four marathons. It's also, bizarrely, a really fun experience. Don't expect a Barry's-style bootcamp where you get to have a break every few minutes and the instructor doesn't give you much individual attention. This is a solid hour of work - running (around a track, outside, up and down stairs), jumping jacks, burpees, jumping lunges, sit-ups, free weights, planks, pull ups, etc etc etc. All muscle groups; strength, cardio, and endurance. No two workouts are the same (although you start to get used to the rhythm of them). There is a lot of partner work, and it can be a little bit competitive but also hugely supportive. As mentioned, there's an obstacle course you do at least once a class. Oh, and the instructors don't miss a thing so it's impossible to slack off. You will sweat, you will absolutely count out loud in synchronization with everyone else, you might feel like you want to throw up. However, when you're done you'll feel like you can basically do anything. Anything. If you come regularly you'll notice real changes in your body pretty quickly. I have to psych myself up a little bit before I go but it's been worth it - when I started this stuff crushed me but I'm *noticeably* stronger and fitter than I was even a couple months ago. Also don't be self conscious about your fitness level, every class has both beginners and experts. Go once and then try it again, you'll see that you've already made progress. read more

The name doesn't lie. Do you like being pushed by a trainer? Do you like intense workouts and are motivated by group workouts? Look no further. Warrior Fitness gives you lots of tough love- from the attitude of your trainers aka drill sergeants to the equipment. Look forward to running up stairs with sandbags on your shoulders, climbing ropes, and vaulting over walls. Workouts are challenging but go by fast and bring out a wonderful sense of camaraderie because everyone is going through the pain together. For reference, I have worked in fitness and typically train 5x or more a week and this was still a great challenge. That being said, the trainers will modify for you if necessary so don't be intimidated. You might regret it when you start, but when you're finished you'll feel ready to conquer whatever is next. read more

Mind blowing workout. And a lot of fun at the same time. Alex a mastermind, and wonderful motivator. Great camaraderie amongst the exercisers which travel near and far to take part in classes. The workout gets results on whatever you are looking to find. Strength, weight loss, state of mind, sense of accomplishment, and just feeling good. read more

LOVE this place! I came for the first time about 3 weeks ago and was immediately hooked, now I can't go a few days without signing up for a class. Luckily I live right around the corner so no complaints there! Alex knows everyone's name who comes to class and switches it up every single time. You should go in knowing that you WILL work up a sweat and will be challenged, however it's nothing that you can't handle. Definitely the best workout in Williamsburg HANDS DOWN. read more

This is hands down the best workout in the city. I love working out and I like all kinds of fitness classes but this is truly the best way to spend an hour. Classes have everything - cardio, strength, bodyweight exercises, HIIT, arms, legs, butt, abs, and just enough stretching. It might seem intimidating because it's run by marines and they make you do endless jumping jacks and push-ups, carry sandbags, climb walls and ropes, etc. But it really is for all levels - Alex or the instructor can modify any class for you but still push you to your max. I actually went throughout my whole pregnancy, they just had me avoid some parts of the obstacle course and do lunges instead of box jumps, etc. I resumed going 6 weeks after giving birth and got back down to my pre-baby weight within a month. Just don't try to do a push-up on your knees if you think Alex isn't looking. He sees everything! read more

Hardest class I've ever taken and I'm in pretty good shape. Though the class was torture, the instructor was very knowledgable and encouraging. The best kind of torture! Mostly body weight exercises, not huge heavy weights like in cross-fit. I'll definitely be back! read more

Came here on a cold Monday night because there aren't a ton of Williamsburg options through classpass. I was hesitant because though I love Barry's bootcamp I'm not usually the biggest fan of bootcamp classes (I'm on active duty and I've had enough real bootcamp in my life! haha) and this place definitely markets itself as a true "marine corps style" bootcamp, down to the colors on the walls. Alex was the instructor and he was great, tough but supportive and the workout was really good. I'm in pretty good shape and it definitely was still a challenge. Like others have said, lots of running in circles, stair climbing, squatting, push ups etc etc. Expect to work and have some cadence calling. It's very bootcamp-ish for sure, but believe me it's not even close to a real bootcamp, and it's over in an hour. Overall I really enjoyed the class and I'll definitely head back! read more

Bootcamp galore! This is not an easy work out!! I haven't had much experience doing boot camps and definitely not a lot of experience doing army boot camps! Located on Whyte street in the basement, this space is not very welcoming with its bleak walls and scary obstacle course taking up the majority of the space. But they have got the army feel/atmosphere to a tee (from my impression of the army and from movies lol). Alex extends this persona with the army boots and the marine voice/yelling. Overview of the class: - 60 minute class of high intensity workout - one tiny water break, so dont expect to be resting very often - workout focused on cardio and strength building with a variety of body weight exercises (pushup, jumping jacks, stairs etc) and also weighted exercises (sand bags, weighted sit ups), as well as the ominous obstacle course Final conclusion: great workout and gets your adrenaline pumping. Don't think you can slack off in this class and expect a little bit of yelling if your slacking off. I am always a little afraid of these classes as they dont focus on the technique and often you can injury yourself as you push through intense repetition (especially with weights). Unfortunately, this class is no exception and the obstacle course would be the first area of injury (jumping off high walls). Not sure if I will be back. read more

I attended classes here to prepare for my Spartan Race in West Point. Best thing I ever did. I learned how to climb a rope properly and make it over a wall that's significantly taller than I am. The sandbag exercise prepped me for the bucket and bag carry portions of the race. Amazing workout here and don't come in expecting a light session- this is the real deal. read more

This was such a great workout. Non stop movement. Great space to run around, jump, climb, lift, die. Alex the instructor (a former marine) put us through 60 mins of real deal boot camp training. We ran a bunch of laps around the pit, then up the stairs, then to some animal movements, then some military calisthenics type drills, and then some weights and box jumps. My heart was beating through my chest. I know my friend felt like dying at one point. And she loved it just as much as I did. This is a great facility to get your mind and body in top shape. If you're not in good shape no worries do what you can but know you will be pushed to do better. We can always do better. If you're already in good shape they damn sure will put you to the test. Nothing like marine style pt. Oorah! read more

This class is amazing. I have tried so many classes round New York, but this is the only one I keep coming back to again and again. The instructors are motivational and constantly change the classes so I have never done the same workout twice, which keeps it interesting and challenging. They incorporate cardio and strength so you get full body results. I can honestly say this is my favorite class I have ever done, and it has the added bonus that there are really great people in the classes. read more

If I could give 10 stars I would. Alex always creates a unique workout - cardio, weights, individual work or having a partner. I've been ~20 times, and it's different every time. Alex has the unique ability to know where your limit is, and push you a few inches beyond it. I'm wasted at the end of every class, literally nothing left to give, which is a credit to the instructor and class format. read more

The best workout I have ever taken! Alex goes above and beyond. Every time I take class, he is always changing it up. My favorites are carrying a sandbag and doing 10 flights of stairs, sprinting around the block and hitting the obstacle course. After the first class, you feel like you are part of this awesome family, where everyone is motivating but wants to work out. The music is awesome. The space is clean. There are showers (including soap shampoo and conditioner) and clean towels with the extra amenities. I consistently come to this gym and always look forward to a good workout. You won't be disappointed !!! read more

Took an evening class on May 7. I honestly need someone to explain to me the hype about this studio. This is one of the best rated studios on ClassPass, but unfortunately it's probably one of the most subpar workouts I've taken in a long time. My main gripe: Not once did we use any part of the obstacle course. I usually take classes at places like Fhitting Room, Switch Playground, Epic Hybrid Training, Tone House, Peloton, etc, so I was looking forward to what I thought would make this class/studio unique from most studios: the monkey bars, the hurdles, the walls, etc (basically the obstacle course in the middle of the room). To my severe disappointment, this class didn't even use any of these. What's the point of having all of that equipment??? Workout-wise, this was an extremely basic workout. We started off with a warmup around the indoor track (like running laps, lunges, side steps, and more running), and then climbed the stairs up and down like 5x, then ran outside around the block for 2 laps. After the warmup was only 1 round of 16 stations (1 min per station): go up/down stairs with sandbag on your back, throw a med ball to the ceiling and then squat while you catch it, throw med ball from your sides, med ball slams, battle ropes, burpees, box jumps, plank, push sandbag around the track, front lunges, chest press on the floor, skull crushers, russian twists, hopping from left to right, jump squats, rear lunges. We then ran around the block for another 3 laps, making it a total of 5 laps. For reference, 5 laps around the block is about 1.3 miles, which probably took at least 10 mins of class time. When we got back from running outside, we had to alternate 1 min of basic situps and 1 min of basic pushups, and we repeated this alternating routine around 5 times. I am in absolute disbelief that I hauled myself all the way to Williamsburg for a workout that I could've mostly done on my own. I would've been better off going to pretty much any other studio in the city. I find it kind of funny that the name of this studio is "Warrior Fitness Boot Camp" when the workout I just had definitely suggests otherwise -- not only is this not a boot camp, but this is also the opposite of what you'd think "warrior" training would be like. If you want something that has obstacle courses (like monkey bars, climbing ropes, etc), go to Epic Hybrid Training and take their Steady Burn class. Bottom line: avoid at all costs read more

Loving this new 2nd location for WFBC. New digs; same levels of ass-kicking! Husband and I dropped by during opening week on Wednesday night. We were treated to sprints, suicides, box jumps and plenty of squat thrusts. Oh, and the stairs, which were all the more fun because we had to haul a heavy bag to the top. As always, Ruben coached our class with plenty of enthusiasm and positivity. We had a blast! read more

Best workout in town! If you can deal with lots of stairs and fight the feeling you want to die, you'll love it!

This is such a fun way to exercise. You will never expend as much energy. They motovate you and its super fun. Totally different. Like the Marines with an indoor obstacle course. read more

Just wanted to add that they have a free trial class offer going on now, so definitely check it out if you're on the fence.

Visited this location with a friend who lives in Williamsburg as a change up from their midtown location. It kicked my a** just as much, and now my friend who has been through more personal trainers at Equinox than I can count is hooked (and started to finally lose his beer gut ha!) The key is sticking it out beyond one or two sessions, because even though you'll be sore you'll be fired up and feel amazing after each hour session. read more

This place makes Crossfit look like Kindergarten. I've done it all, boot camp, yoga, barre, P90-X, and Crossfit. While yoga and barre are great in their own ways, P90, Crossfit, and bootcamps all market themselves as ass kickers and their fans love to brag about how hardcore they are for doing it. Sorry those workouts are not that hard. You will literally have your ass handed to yourself here. There were points, where I said to myself "what the actual F is going on?" I wondered if I was in some weird time loop and I would be forced to do this torturous workout forever. This workout is hell and I mean that in the best way. I will definitely be back, though I'm not sure my body can take more than once a week! read more

This is by far my favorite workout in NYC. I bought the class package outside of Classpass which is pretty much the best compliment you can give a studio. It's an effective mix of strength and cardio and the group mentality really helps to push yourself. Alex and Ruben were both fantastic at never repeating the same routine and managing different class sizes. Really thrilled they opened a studio in BK! read more

Highly recommend!! Ruben and Alex are amazing - they challenge and push you regardless of fitness level and expertly accommodate any special needs such as injuries (I have a few). I am the opposite of a seasoned and coordinated athlete, but have always been made to feel a part of the class (which usually includes novice through advanced athletes) while still receiving a lot of individual attention (regardless of class size). The pace of the workout is quick, combining cardio, strength training, and an obstacle course. I consider it the most efficient hour of exercise. I did Classpass for a while but now only do this. These guys are absolute pros. read more

Excellent class. It's the most challenging workout class I've attended, the instructors are attentive and get a lot from you.

came here through classpass. workout thought process: -fun! -I can do this -let me die -this is a class that needs the liability waver -let me die again first workout that's truly kicked my ass. my instructor, Alex, was super kind and let me in when I'd mistakenly signed up for the previous class. try to only judge a workout by the day after so too soon to tell, but you get your money's worth. read more

Best workout in Manhattan hands down. If you can handle intensity, want to get fit and don't mind a lot of sweat then give this place a shot. During the workout you might wonder why you've done this to yourself but at the end of the workout you'll feel so amazing that you'll definitely be back for more. read more

I'm in pretty good shape, and I've been struggling to find classes that are hard enough to really challenge me, without making me actually want to die. After a couple of classes at Warrior, I'm very happy withe the workouts there, the instructors, and will definitely be back. The sergeants are clearly marines, but are also upbeat, and adjust the instructions to fit your level. I was particularly a big fan of the way they cycled the moves (abs, then running stairs, then free weights) so not exhausted one body part too much at once and keep moving.) A solid class for a solid workout. read more

I'm a huge fan of this gym - Ruben and Alex are great trainers and very motivating.. Which I need! I might be known to half ass a move or two once I'm exhausted. I can never get it past them! This is a dynamic workout.. From running, stairs, push-ups, too many jumping jacks to count, wall balls, and small weights. I've never had the same workout twice.. And I try to go about 4 days a week! My heart rate monitor says I burn about 700 calories during the class, which is exactly what I need. It's worth it to buy these classes (rather than just coming through ClassPass), which is the best compliment I can give. I'm very glad they opened this location in the neighborhood!! read more
