I must say, I am truly enjoying all my classes at The Studio by Absolute Pilates. When I first joined back in July, I was apprehensive about my attendance and how "loyal" I would be. Much to my surprise, I have settled into a routine that works for me and I find myself actually going ... with the exception of a few conflicts here and there...

Awesome class!! Becky is a great instructor who keeps us motivated and moving with her creative workouts. She works with every fitness level and knows how far to push you so you can achieve results. I started 8 months ago and have improved in so many areas; strength, running, and weight loss. Doing our workouts outside is a blast as well!! :)

I would recommend River North Strength to anyone who is looking for top of the line strength and conditioning. This gym will cater a program to fit your specific needs...

This CYCLEBAR Columbia Pike studio looks all slick but also has a lot of heart. A lot of kindness. So much generosity. And great instructors and classes. I launched and grew a new online publication while trying to kill a cold that I couldn't shake and gained 50 pounds from it...

Loved Laura Menzie's newest class Plyo Jam! Great tunes, energy, and booty shaking! SOO much fun with lots of laughter!! Way to go, Laura! You're a fab new addition to the Powerfull Fitness Staff!!

We took our first class today of pico pico parkour. My son absolutely loved it a lot of kids showed up to the class which is for ages four and five so they split the class into four-year-olds and five-year-olds . Though he’s four I requested that he be put in with the five-year-olds as I noticed that the four-year-olds we’re not doing nearly as cub complex or structured activities ...

My son loves this place. My son went to the one in Manassas until they moved to Sterling so we didn't go anywhere for the last year cuz we moved to Stafford. I decided to take my 50 minute drive up to Alexandria to try it out and Travis loves it...

My Body Shop has been the studio I call home for over 4 years. It doesn’t get any better than this in the DC/MD area. The wide range of available aerial and non-aerial classes, knowledgable instructors and a welcoming student atmosphere make this one of the best studios in the area. Stop in and take a class, you won’t regret it.

My son really enjoyed playing in the new play area for kids. He is a very active 3 year old and loves climbing and jumping. He spent about 1.5 hours exploring around the gym and didn’t want to go home!

My son had a birthday party at Urban Evolution and declared it the best party ever! It was really a blast and every child that attended thought so. We had 14 kids ranging from 7-10 and they all were engaged the whole time. The staff was friendly and the trainers were terrific with the kids.

Let me preface this by saying I am not a gym person, despite being a physical therapist. Dad bod has hit me hard since having my first child and I was looking for a fun place to work out. What I found at urban evolution was an adult playground/gym with friendly knowledgeable staff that made me feel welcome, and more importantly excited to work out!

My daughter had her first pico pk class yesterday. She was originally placed in the 4-year-old group, which was too simple for her. Fortunately she was allowed to move to the 5-year-old group shortly after class began. This was MUCH better! She had a great time with the variety of activities and has been begging to go back again! Looking forward to our next class!

Wonderful experience at PiYo/ Hip hoo. Super fun workout on dance music. High-energy dance program helps to burn calories, tone abs, legs, and arms. Another positive outcome is you learn new dance moves; broken into small, simple steps.

Today was my first visit to Rebel. I loved Leah and her energy and how comfortable she made me from the beginning. The class was so fun and there's nothing intimidating, no judgements and, in case you're worried, a variety of sizes of women. I promise everyone isn't 105lbs! The studio is very clean, the music gets you pumped and the time flew by. I'm excited to go back next week.

I love plyojam! For a person who is not fond of cardio, this is the best. And you gotta love the instructor because she makes sure you do it all, pump, shake, thrust! So fun!

Jess is an amazing coach who is both knowledgeable and positive. She always pushes everyone to give their best! Tonight was a tough class but we had Jess to encourage us the whole time.

I love taking Chrissy's Floor/Chair Saturday morning class! It's a great time and a fun way to kick off the weekend. She knows how to challenge us but offers plenty of options for moves that might be a little too advance, or might aggravate someone's injury.

Been going to Vita for 2 years. The staff are always so friendly and they offer many services at a reasonable price . Brittany is great for facials.

This was my first pole class in the area and I enjoyed it so much. I loved the energy and Arielle taught a really good class tonight. Everyone was inviting. I’m excited to take more classes!

I take a class in Quantum Pilates for many years (lost count). Mark is an incredible teacher with individual approach to every trainee. I always leave the class feeling better in in very good mood. I had Pilates classes in various gyms, but this one is the best!

Today my reactive Shiloh Sheppard , Gunner and I had a fabulous training session with Mike and Amanda. Gunner was able to socialize with Mike and Amanda with no muzzle. He was working around new people and dogs with no reactivity. He was able to move around the compound off lead . It gives me confidence that we can master his challenges. Thanks Mike and Amanda

I tried a bounce class yesterday for the first time! It was a lot of fun and a great workout! The upbeat music really energized the class! Lauren did a great job and was able to suggest modifications to those who needed it without taking away from the integrity of the workout! Give it a try!

I recently took an Introductory equipment classes, I absolutely loved the amazing stretches I experienced in supported inversions. Instructor watchful eye—reminding me to engage core, extended legs stretch, extend spine, etc. I realize I now trust my body to move with intelligence. What a great and unexpected surprise...

Powerfull Strength and Core was a terrific low impact all over strength work out. 45 minutes of intentional movement left this lady sweaty and feeling strong! Thank you Megan for the fun Royal Wedding themed work out!

Wes is 5 with a lot of energy! He LOVED UrbanEvolution his first time there. He went for a birthday party and got to try the Warped Wall and do a flip into the foam pit! He loved moving around the gym and trying to stay off the lava floor. He felt so much at home, the staff was safe and so professional. We cannot wait and start going regularly...

I started taking yoga classes with Karla about a month ago. I was nervous at first, very out of shape! But she runs the class with ease and comforting coaching. Then, when she announced the Wine and Yoga class, I was the first to sign up. The group of us really had a great time doing yoga and wine at Anchors and Oars in the barn loft. I highly recommend any class Karla instructs!

Chrissy’s class is always so much fun! The workout can be killer, but she creates such a great sense of camaraderie that it’s enjoyable

What a fun class! Pound with Joyce was a lot of fun! I thoroughly enjoyed it and am looking forward to taking the class again!

I've been with WSA for over a year now and I have enjoyed every instructor there. They are all very knowledgeable in everything they teach there. The results have been tremendous. I've learned a lot through my time there. Looking to learn more! It is also like a family atmosphere. Everyone supports one another and encourages everyone.

I just took a Pound class with Joyce. What a lot of fun! It takes a lot of coordination, but well worth the effort! I am looking forward to the next class and maybe getting class to mastering some of the moves!

I adopted Calvin as a rescue. Although he is cute he didn't have any manners. He especially enjoyed chasing cats, squirrels, people. This list is long. After working with Amanda and Theresa Calvin and I started speaking the same language. He is responding beauty! We participated in the Park Walk on June 1 and he was fantastic, better than I could've hoped. Blue Line gave Calvin a new life!

Took the intro class for aerial silks and had a great time. Since there were about a dozen of us in the class and 5-6 silks available, we paired up and switched on the silks. That worked out because we needed breaks anyway. The instructor was super friendly and great about correcting the mistakes I was making while still being encouraging when I was doing things right...

I can't say enough good things about Cari. Though she started out as a teacher-in-training, she has quickly become an outstanding instructor. I look forward to my classes with her 2-3 per week at the Enola studio...

Even though I'm a fellow-instructor, I still love Mandi's class. I'm always learning something new from her. She creates an environment that makes us all feel connected -- like friends, more than classmates. Mandi strikes a good balance in pushing students and encouraging, which is hard to do. Great job, Mandi. I love watching you grow as an instructor and being part of it.

This is a great class. I have been doing it since June 2017. The instructor, Becky, does a wonderful job of creating fun and creative workouts. She always has great workouts planned with a mix of cardio and weights. It is a fun group of people at all different fitness levels. The class and instructor Becky are all super encouraging.

I love this place! The studio has such an awesome vibe and atmosphere and it's impossible NOT to have fun! The instructors are warm and welcoming and know how to make the classes fun and engaging. Plus it's a great way to improve your strength! I love the variety of classes they offer for people of all experience levels and backgrounds, whether they want to try pole or just dance and have fun...

CoreAlign - awesome experience, performing challenging exercises, very deep stretches and core-controlled aerobic training. Thank you to the trainer Leslie

I participated in the Wine Tasting and Yoga class and loved it. I learned more about wine and enjoyed the yoga. It was fun to be with a great group of women and Karla makes everyone feel comfortable and have fun. She is a great teacher and I also really like her classes - without the wine!

Great class Amanda! You're reminders of contracting muscles and focusing on the muscles we are working helps us get the most out of the workout! Thanks for changing it up each class some too so its not monotonous! Great workout!

Awesome place. I’m a newbie to twerk and pole but they made me feel good. And they’re very encouraging!!! Friendly people and good workout!!!! Will keep coming

What to say first?! BYC is such a welcoming and warm (no pun intended) environment from beginner to expert it seems. I attended my first session last week coming from a practice of vinyasa yoga and bikram kicked my butt in the best way possible. I left feeling exhilarated, exhausted, rejuvenated, and broken down all at once...

My mother and I took the Lyra 1 class on Thursday night. The class was very small, the instructor, us and one other more advanced student. She gave us things to do that were within our level, both of us were total beginners with little upper body strength. She was very patient with us as we cracked a lot of jokes. It was the fun kind of hard and we were both sore the day after...

Raven and I enjoy working with Denise, she is very friendly and Raven is working well with the program. Our session on Saturday was encouraging and we’re looking forward to our next training day with Denise!

I thoroughly enjoy attending Boxing Fundamentals on Monday with Rafael. The class accommodates all speed and experience levels. The gym offers the first two classes free, hand wraps and gloves are very reasonably priced, and the young woman at the desk is extremely pleasant and helpful. Bethesda Boxing has made my boxing beginnings very smooth...

John was super knowledgeable, easy to get along with, and generous in his teachings! I learned so much from him in less than 45 minutes...he was also very easy going and welcoming. Jenn was great and was the first person I met at 90+. She was also very welcoming and full of knowledge...it was good to talk about the joy of competing in triathlons with her!

I come here all the time! The staff is very knowledgeable about detox and wellness. I have tried many of the treatments and they are all fantastic. I feel so healthy and centered every time I come here.

The Sterling gym is a nice facility. The entire facility is laid out well to be comfortable & functional for all activities contained therein.  Arial Silks is my niche, and Kim is an amicable, attentive, knowledgeable instructor. She gives me confidence when my skills are correct and gives me confidence to grow...

Good class and I'm glad I pushed myself to participate. I am not a runner but managed to make it through the class with the enthusiastic encouragement of Laura and her modifications that made it all doable for me. Moving at my own pace within my personal limits. I'll be back!! :D

After one month I already have improved flexibility and strength especially in core & hip areas! This is great for a small woman runner like me. Being new to weight training I've learned to do many exercises correctly--> every movement has a purpose & no time is wasted. Thanks Coach Ryan for your attentive and encouraging workouts! Cheryl C (49 yo)

Jessi is awesome. She puahes you but if she sees you struggling she asks if everything is ok. If you need a modification, she understands and she will suggest other exercises for you to choose. Great trainer!

We LOVE Urban Evolution. My kids get so excited every time we get in the car to go there. The staff is so well trained and AMAZING with kids. Their facilities are clean, safe and challenging, and it is a warm, friendly family environment. My son has developed so much confidence from taking the pico parkour classes and talks all the time about being old enough to start earning bands...

John updated my fit today and also set me up with new aerobars and seat. He's really patient and always making great suggestions for my cycling well-being. Thanks. John.

Glad I got up when that alarm went off for the Dawn Boot Camp. Needed something different. Something to push me and give me a challenge! Jenn, the boot camp instructor, did just that! I workout often but mainly lift and do football/track drills. The switch up in routine was needed and I will definitely be back for more!

WSA is the best part of my day! The results are amazing, the coaches ehhh there alright! Just kidding they are all absolutely wonderful people! Love everyone of them! Thanks for changing my life WSA!!!!

My daughter is transitioning out of competitive gymnastics and wanted to try a Ninja/Parkour class. She went once & was hooked! A great family atmosphere.

FO Fitness: Well, I’m not sure where to start. This is going to be a tough journey, however the last two sessions have been incredible. Now it may be just in my mind but I feel stuff happening within my body that I’ve never experience before...

Boot camp at Accotink with Eileen was quite a workout! Everyone made me feel welcome and Eileen was happy to modify exercises for me. As I looked around the room, all of the women were smiling and having a great time. I’ll be back for sure!

Bought a groupon for the colon hydrotherapy, was a little nervous being that this was my first time but soon as we got started I was at ease. My session was with Shannon who is super cool and knowledgeable I’m already planning my next visit.

I love this place ... it’s amazin Ken is super nice and always supportive his staff are from the top shelves and you couldn’t ask for better ... he does an excellent job with kids and also with us Au Pairs ... he doesn’t mind if you bring your kids with he gives them gloves and makes it fun for them while you work out...

I’m restarting my fitness journey and I knew I needed to start at Torch Gym with Tiffani because she would push me past my comfort zone which is just what I need. We’ve had a love hate relationship for years but I can count on getting the results I want! I love the individual attention everyone gets even though we’re working out as a group. We encourage each other and make it to the end!

I just took my adult parkour intro lesson yesterday and I really enjoyed every bit that I learned. I've already signed up for a monthly membership after seeing how great the staff are, especially the instructor and the guy shadowing nicknamed "Goku". I definitely plan on taking up another lesson this week and would highly recommend to anybody new to give this place a try. :)

I had the opportunity to take a beginner equipment class at the new studio. Loved the exercises you are able to do on the reformer. Allison did a great job helping me with my first class. Will definitely try to do more of them in the future.

The team at Absolute Pilates is amazing! From barre to reformer classes to the CoreAlign, there is something for everyone. The teachers have been wonderful at modifying things for me as needed over the past several years through 2 high risk pregnancies, a torn hamstring, and a broken foot.

Awesome coach - holds you ACCOUNTABLE! .......................................................

Becky is a fabulous instructor! Since joking the Kentlands group in May 2018, I’ve gotten stronger and faster. I set a new personal record (PR) running a 5K, and I can do an unmodified push-up. It is a diverse group of all ages and abilities. In addition to supporting each other’s fitness goals, we have a lot of fun!

Great pliyo workout with Tristan! She was very supportive and passionate about insuring that I had a great workout.

Love the class - always a challenge and appreciate the modifications for those of us who are a little more athletically challenged! Look forward to attending this class as my schedule allows.

If you're looking for a place to turn off and let all the anger go into the heavy bag, this is the place. Very experienced and friendly staff will help you with anything you might need. This gym is a family and you will be part of it! I found passion in kickboxing and in sparring with other members. Can't live without it now...

Great class as always. Stephanie is a dedicated instructor who always gives us alternative ways to do moves just in case we're a little slow or have missed a few classes. I love this PIYO class.. Can't wait for next week.

I really enjoyed the training with Teresa for Harper. Harper has learned a lot today and so have I. I feel that I have a lot more control of Harper more now than before. Thanks, Teresa for all of your help and Harper and I will see you soon for more training with obstacles.

Started this journey in February 2018. Must admit it has been harder than I thought for me, but I am determined to win the battle with the pole and look forward to my class. My instructor, Athena, has been patient with me and tries to encourage me even when I give her the "not doing that move" look...

Loved the Zumba class!!! It's great when you're exercising and sweating and smiling and just having fun! Love it!!! :)

I love working with Teresa! She had helped me with my first dog - who is now such a sweetie and she just started to help me with my younger dog. He's a handful, but after the first lesson I have already seen such awesome progress! They take the time to listen to your wants and needs -- and provide you and your dogs with exactly the right training. I highly recommend!

Took Karla’s paddle boarding 101 class with my daughter and we had such a good time. Karla was very patient with my daughter as this was her first time on a paddle board. Looking forward to paddle board yoga!!!

Just participated in the Intro to Parkour Adult Class. Our instructor, Carson, was a stud and a very chill and mellow dude. He taught at a great pace and challenged us on the techniques he showed us. Very awesome time! I never thought I could learn so much in two hours! I would encourage anyone interested to take the step and sign up for a class. The investment in yourself is worth every penny!

I was nervous to try the Platform class on Saturday mornings, but Laura was amazing! She explained each set and made it super easy to follow along. It was a GREAT full body workout, with easy modifications if needed, and a wonderful way to start the weekend!

Yoga with Leah this morning was just what this busy momma needed to face a weekend of practices, church commitments, and parties. Thank you Leah for the deep stretches, breaths, and reminder to open spaces in my body as well as my life. AND my core got a work out too!

Kane suffers from some confidence issues and has been working with Mike since January. He continues to show progress and advancement towards the dog he needs to be. Many thanks to Mike and his staff for making this journey an enjoyable learning experience for us boths!

LOVE this place, even though John makes my muscles cry. If you want to learn how to be a better rider, this is the place. Also, I wouldn't trust my bike to anyone else for repairs or any work.

Morning Meditation with Deneen was wonderful! She is so knowledgeable and a great teacher! It was such a relaxing experience, I would encourage everyone to try it out!

This was my first pole class ever and, as a beginner, the most enjoyable experience! Curvy was my instructor and she was welcoming with an wonderful personality! She really made it easy for me to fit in with the rest of the group and helped me to perform my beginner best. I will be purchasing a memebershop and plan to incorporate this into my lifestyle!

The best decision I made to stay fit physically and mentally. The e-coachings are very helpful and insightful, and the book of the month are good reads that are applicable to every facet of life. The RebelFit coache are #1 they don't just say they care they show you they care. Care, concern, motivation, and team spirit is what made the difference for me. #RebelFit4ever

Looking forward to my next class! The instructor was very informative and kicked my ass. Can’t wait to check out the other classes here!

I love the Thursday and Monday classes!!!! I feel that I am getting stronger and more flexible. It takes time and effort, but the results are amazing.

The atmosphere is very calming and relaxing, Brittany is the best for facials. My skin feels amazing every time I leave and it’s just a wonderful experience, everyone is friendly and makes each visit personal. If you want quality service come here.

Last June 2017, a new member joined our family- our 3 month old German Shepherd! I saw a bro here and card for Blue Line K9 at our vet’s office ( Greenbrier Vet). They highly recommended Blue Line K9. We had our puppy training at our house last July with Teresa Fisher. She was very caring, professional, and gave us so many tips to help train our new puppy. I highly recommend Teresa!!!

Great work this morning Absolute Pilates! Kristi was a wonderful instructor who led a challenging and whole-body workout!

Kim, the instructor for intro to aerial, was great. Friendly and knowledgeable. The front desk was also very nice and informative. While I am a huge advocate for our youth, especially, to be expressive and open, it was distracting and disruptive to our session. For the safety of the participants, I feel this is important to address.

I've been attending classes at The Studio for about one and half month....Leslie classes are my favorite! She pays attention to detail and makes every client feel valued and happy.

Denise was a pleasure to work with. She was very informative and genuinely cares for you and your pet. I researched a lot dog trainers before using Blue Line k9 and I am completely happy with my decision. Looking forward to the off leash program in the future.

I love it. Everyone is very welcoming, the studio is clean, and the height of the poles is amazing. My favorite part is the instructors; they all have their own style and it’s obvious they love what they do.

This was my first outdoor class with John’s group. Ride was great. Recieved plenty of one on one attention and loads of useful advice. Think I may have found a bike guru!

Love my trainers..They are friendly but tough!! Some days when I don't feel like, I go and realize that I needed that workout.

Loved working with Amanda.. We got our Italian Mastiff at 4 mo old and was not socialized as much as we would have liked.. I am also somewhat lenient with disciplining and intimidated by my dogs size and strength but Amanda has helped us work through those issues by giving us a lot of pointers and explaining thouroughly the cause and effect of our interactions with our fur baby...

MEANT TO PUT THIS ON MY ACCOUNT, NOT SYDNEY'S Went to the Level 1 class with my bestie. We had an amazing time. Lisa was very nice and helpful the whole time. I'll definitely be returning. This is only my second class and I've had an amazing time each time I went. I leave feeling sexy, confident and very happy. I can't wait for OPEN HOUSE tomorrow .

This is the most amazing group of coaches/ trainers. Every level will find challenge and education with 90+. I cant say enough good things about John and his team

I have taken four different classes with Absolute Pilates, two at Walden and two at the Studio. Each class has been considerably different from the next. Each of the four instructors has been truly remarkable and the other students in the class(es) have all been extremely welcoming of the "newbie" (me).

My son really enjoyed playing in the new play area for kids. He is a very active 3 year old and loves climbing and jumping.

I look forward to going to My Body Shop. The classes are fun. The staff and students are nice. If you are a beginner up to a professional aerialist. There is something there for everyone.

Amazing studio, filled with amazing outstanding people. The energy is very pleasant and loving. Everyone comes together create a very open minded, welcoming and understanding community. I truly love this place.

We were a group of 14 girls in town for a bachelorette party and Karla was extremely professional and made our yoga experience great...even for those girls that were feeling the night before. Karla came prepared with mats for all of us. It was the perfect activity to start off our day. I would highly recommend Karla for a yoga session.
