Highly recommend PBCH! As someone who loves going fitness boutique classes, this one is hands down…read morethe most welcoming while ensuring you get an excellent workout. Not to mention, it's great for all fitness levels. The instructors suggest modifications throughout class to meet the needs of all clients. The classes never get easier but you get stronger (and become addicted so you have to come back all the time). Another aspect that sets PBCH aside are their virtual classes. Several live classes are offered throughout the day. If a client misses a class, they have access to hundreds of prerecorded classes. Times are crazy right now but PBCH is an excellent way to distract yourself for 50 minutes while you lift, tone and burn!

So excited this location has opened! I had been looking for a barre studio near me since I moved to…read moreMt Airy and stumbled upon this one just yesterday -- they opened in June. When I called with questions, Liz, the owner was incredibly helpful, after speaking with her for just a few minutes I could tell I would really like this studio. I was so pumped that I found this studio I signed up for a class immediately and had a really great workout with Corinne. Barre workouts are one of the most effective/quickest ways to tone and gain strength, I have tried several styles, and have always gone back to the Pure Barre "method." If you are looking for a studio in the Mt Airy, Chestnut Hill, Jenkintown, etc. location, this is the barre studio for you. Really looking forward to my next class!

There is also plenty of street parking if you are worried about where to go. When you first enter it may feel like you are walking into the middle of the spin class but you are not. (I totally did for a second!) Just head downstairs to the reception and they will check you in. They have little inspirational quotes in the space and it has a great cozy feel. This was my first barre class ever and it was perfect for starters. Fun class with great music! There was only 2 of us and the instructor so it felt like a private session. It's a great workout and I'm sure tomorrow I will be feeling sore. Thanks for a great class, I will definitely be back!

My wife and I have been taking classes here together and individually for several months. We are…read moreaddicted! Alli Bradley, the owner is "hands on" and super accommodating! She has a talent for staffing as the entire fitness staff is engaged before, during and after each class, with no monkeying around. These instructors mean business. I am a motivated gym and running rat, but these folks make my other workouts seem subpar. The space is super clean with a great warm atmosphere. My wife loves the Barre classes. They partner with a local farmer's market in making organic juices. I haven't had one, but they look great and seem to fly off the shelf. We always leave feeling like we are part of the family(and beat up from the workout!). Can't say enough about the great energy and Alli's experience regarding fitness and health knowledge. We wish Chestnut Hill Cycle Fitness much success!

Dancefit has been one of my favorite finds since July 2023. From the moment you walk in, the studio…read morefeels cozy, welcoming, and full of good energy. They offer a variety of classes and intensity levels like Zumba, Hipfit, Tone Zone, and more, so there's always something fun to choose from. The instructors are amazing! They call out the moves clearly, make classes easy to follow, and bring the best playlists that keep you motivated the entire time. What really sets Dancefit apart is the sense of community. They offer workshops and chances to be involved in community events, which makes it feel like a supportive space, not just a workout. The little details matter here too. The studio has water, lockers, and an overall comfortable setup. If you're looking for a fun way to get moving without it feeling like a chore, Dancefit is it. It's truly exercise in disguise.

I had a great indoor spin class this morning at The Wall! It was a perfect way to start the day…read more It was a 6:15 class and it was pretty full - only 2 empty bikes. It's a small studio so be sure to reserve a bike early. The classes are only $15 per session or you can purchase a bigger package if you plan to keep going. Jessica was the instructor and she did a great job of keeping the class motivated! I really enjoyed her selection of music too. I will be back!

I joined NGU at late 2017 and only had to leave due to a shift of my work location…read more First off let's just get to the point: This is one of the best choices in the area in terms of cost and quality. The group classes are always small enough to build a good relationship with your trainers and the NGU50 are the most balanced yet challenging bootcamp style workouts you can get in the area The trainers (particularly my guy Lamar) are fantastic and passionate about giving you your money's worth and through the pandemic they've been very accommodating with remote classes and safety procedures. Ali if you are reading this thank you for all the positive change you have brought to my life!

There's something for every age group and the gym is maintained in a clean healthy organized environment. Trainers are always in sight and my personal trainer Caleb "Sonny" Holts is one of the best.

The staff were friendly, but my experience with the membership contract was extremely…read moredisappointing. I joined under the impression that the gym had a functioning steam room, based on signage posted in the locker room. After joining, I learned the sign was outdated and the steam room no longer operated as advertised. Since that amenity was one of the reasons I chose this gym, I decided to cancel my membership. What surprised me even more was being told that I was locked into a 12-month contract. I had been a member for less than a month, and at no point during the sign-up process was it clearly explained that I was committing to a year-long agreement. Given today's fitness industry, where month-to-month memberships are common, I reasonably assumed this was also a month-to-month membership unless told otherwise. In fact I was told the first 30 days was a free trial. But based on some of the reviews here, it seems they do not honor that 30 day trial period. I requested to cancel because the gym did not provide the service it appeared to advertise, yet they refused to release me from the contract. Being held to a year-long agreement under those circumstances feels unfair and predatory. It's unfortunate because the staff were pleasant, but the membership practices overshadowed the experience. I cannot recommend a business that advertises amenities it doesn't provide and then refuses to let customers cancel after discovering the discrepancy.

Tried it out and got a tour. Nice person gave me a tour and while it was the South Philly location,…read moreI'd hope the others are better. They have all old cracked yoga mats, a mix of lights that are flickering or no glass covering. There is only one stair climbing machine that is very old. A number of pieces of equipment had no signs or the adhesive left from where the sign once lived. I wanted to like this gym but yesh, you're going to charge me $70 for this? (Or whatever it was bc there was no document with the prices, it was all verbal.) High price and a shit box, not worth it. They really need to upgrade equipment or cut prices.

Two may be a bit generous for this sweaty little gym on Main Street. Sweat (so appropriately named)…read moreis depressing. There always seems to be a leak somewhere in the ceiling, there's always a TV, stationary bike, or treadmill on the fritz; and ever since opening the Pole Dancing studio (brilliant idea by the way) downstairs, which always seems empty, all of the equipment has been crammed onto one tiny floor. I'm basically paying (alot I may add) for convenience. I love the fact that I can walk to the gym and not hassle with the stress of parking and traffic. Some more positives: they have an amazing personal trainer on staff. Although working out with him felt like an hour long torture session, I was pleased to see that after a few months I could finally do more than a few girlie push ups. I can't recommend the personal trainer here enough. Additionally, although Sweat is filled with young Manayunk peeps, it somehow avoids feeling like a meat market (surprisingly so). So although I feel like I'm paying close to a fortune to work out here, perhaps Sweat isn't so bad..
