First off, while Urban Evolution is a gym, it is not not like a typical gym -- no show offs, no designer workout clothes, no over-the-top branding, and no patrons that looked photoshopped. Actually, if you had childhood dreams of turning your parent's unfinished basement or "storage" garage into a playground, Urban Evolution would be that dream. The Adult Into class started with stretches...

Best studio around.. The staff/instructors are so welcoming and encouraging, that you feel fearless trying something new. I have to thank my son for introducing us to polar, because he wanted to take parkour and after one class he was hooked. After 4 years, he still loves it and I found Pole, Barre, Chair and PiYo here...

I tried the Intro to Parkour class with some friends, and could not be more pleased. The facility was impressive, and the staff immediately put us at ease. The owner himself taught the course, and took the time to individually assist us with learning the techniques. 11/10 would try again!

I absolutely loved my experience today. It was fun, informative and I met some cool people there just starting out like I was. The workouts weren't too intense, but got the blood flowing and the one thing that I liked the most was the focusing on technique. I would recommended this class to anyone who were looking for something different and exciting...

As a dancer, my legs take quite a beating and need extra special attention to get the knots out. The massages available at Glatter Fitness are phenomenal. The moving cupping technique helped relieve my severe muscle tightness. It is amazing, and I highly recommend it!

I took the Intro to Silks Class with Megan P. and it was AWESOME! She was patient with me and explained things so that I could easily understand the basic concepts. The pacing of the class was great and I left feeling so accomplished and proud of myself. This was my first experience with Urban Evolution and the entire staff was friendly and welcoming...

I love the instructors at the Studio! Today I went to class with achy knees and a headache. By the end of my workout my headache was gone and my knee pain decreased. I told the instructor, Lynette how I was feeling and she made sure to stretch and focus on my knees. The instructors really take the time to know you, what you want to focus on and how you're doing the motions...

My son and I really enjoyed our first visit t Urban Evo for Homeschool Parkour hour. The laid back but high energy of the place was great. He got to expel a lot of energy in new and exciting ways. The location was good and easy to find and there was plenty of parking. The instructor seemed to work well and was able to politely redirect my overly chatty child without making him feel picked on...

I took the intro to parkour class and it was a ton of fun. The owner led the class and he was very understanding and helpful especially when I struggled to get some of the techniques. He was able to break things down a little slower for me and show me ways to improve my strength at home. Parkour is no joke though! I have bruises to prove it...

I took my first pole class 2 1/2 years ago at Polar Fitness. It's the only fitness related class I've ever enjoyed. The instructors are great and make sure each student has a new challenge based on individual levels. The other students are also wonderful. Everyone gets along and encourages each other...

Just finished TRX class with Brian. His expertise installs a lot of confidence. The workout was far more challenging than I expected; I'm hurting! But the good kind.

Awesome studio/gym! Great instructors! Very professional! Super friendly and patience! Excel at their arts and crafts! Skill levels are above and beyond! 5/5!

Amazing!! As a former dancer for many years...I was still intimidated. I am soon to be 35 yrs old and my body feels terrible. I was super nervous... but I must say, The Studio by Absolute Pilates was just what I needed. Lauren is amazing and I really likes the smaller class size. Even though the other class goers have been doing Barre for awhile, I felt welcome as soon as I walked in the door...

I have been knowing about FO and his fitness team for some time now. I have been very curious, but apprehensive. I have always been a fairly active person, but over the years have allowed my level of intensity in workouts to plateau. Recognizing I needed to make some changes, I made the decision to reach out to FO and kick things up a bit. I am glad I did!

Unexpected and fantastic! Took a 7 year old for a Parkour intro class and he has been talking about it for days. The staff was very attentive, got a tour of all the skill areas and the instructor was really interactive, patient, friendly and very encouraging! Great motivations for active kids to train with agility, strength, balance and persistence while building confidence...

Kat really encouraged me. It was my first time with my Mom and Kat really helped make it through the poses and heat. I thought she was very inspiring and kind and she respected everyone's ability and I really recommend her as a teacher. I will definitely be back! Cecily (age 11)

We celebrated our son's 9th birthday with an American Ninja Warrior party here. It was awesome. The kids had a blast. The staff was welcoming and very helpful. It was hands down the easiest party I have ever had.

We hosted my daughter's 11th birthday party here, and it was tremendous fun for her and her friends! The instructors -- Mark and Rebecca -- were superb with the kids: Funny, engaging, encouraging and kind. They were great at showing the kids what to do, using humor to show them which techniques work and which don't...

Polar Fitness is amazing!!! I've been taking pole classes for almost three years now. Pole is my favorite fitness class I've ever taken. The classes are fun and a great workout! My sons have taken parkour classes and had a parkour birthday party that was enjoyed by all of their friends.

We celebrated my son's 8th birthday here and it was his favorite party yet! The staff were great with the kids, spending time explaining the various techniques and working patiently with them. The kids were engaged and had a great time. The best part was the obstacle course that they got to do at the end of the party.

The class was great! The teacher seemed knowledgeable and invested in the class and I left feeling relaxed if a bit sweaty. I will definitely go back.

We signed up for the Introduction to parkour class available on groupon (and five additional classes after), and we can't stop recommending it to our friends! The class was just us, so the instruction was personalized and the instructors were very friendly, patient, and helpful...

The intro to adult gymnastics class couldn't have been better! The coach was 15 years younger than me, but he was unpretentious, knowledgeable, and supportive. I was flipping into the foam pit, hanging off the bars, and even held a handstand for a second! I love it.

Jessi was an excellent instructor! This was my first pilates class and she was very welcoming and professional. She ensured that I worked out at a pace appropriate for me, while also ensuring my safety on the machine. I enjoyed the session and look forward to my next class with Jessi!

An amazing place! Going into this I had no prior experience with parkour. And when I got there I received so much more than what I expected, this place is amazing the people were great instructors were very helpful and the classes that they have look pretty diverse...

I leave feeling like I've had a fun yet hard workout! I take the strength and tone class on Wednesdays at Prince of Peace with Laura. The moves are easily modified to your physical needs. Love that my little one is excited to go to workout class, she follows along sometimes but also plays with the toys that are provided.

I took my two daughters, 6 and 3, to the Nano and Pico parkour classes. They looooved it. THe instructors were brilliant with the littles. I was super impressed with how comfortable they make my girls, but also how safe they were. My girls love to bounce, do yoga, run, dance, flip upside down on the couch. My 3 year old spends more time with her behind in the air than on her feet, haha...

I feel so lucky and blessed to have found PowerFull Fitness! I’m excited to wake up each morning and start my day w/ this group of strong women. Laura and Amanda push me beyond my limits every day and make me laugh while doing it. It’s been 3 months and I’ve seen results everywhere. Their workouts allowed me to find time to take care of myself without sacrificing time away from my family...

My friends and I took the Intro to Partner Acro Balancing class. A friend of ours goes to this gym and told us about the classes she takes there and recommended the class to us. The instructors were very friendly, patient and helpful. They gave us several poses to do with each other, as well as partnering us on more difficult poses...

Our severely handicapped daughter works with Fo Fitness 3 times a week. She works hard but loves it. The exercise is appropriately challenging but fun. She is stronger and happier as a result.

I remember when I started taking Eileen's classes. It was a small group, some of us were in decent shape and others were new to the fitness world. Eileen had just received her certification and we were her guinea pigs. Here we are a year later, the group has grown by leaps and bounds, that original group is still around and we have all caught the 'fitness bug'...

I was having back pain and no matter what I did it never helped. After going to the Pilates individual sessions with Mary, my back started feeling so much better! Pilates is amazing, and the regression machines that they use make it a great experience. They have mat classes every Saturday and while I'm still going to the individual sessions, I highly recommend both!

LOVED this class! It was a great atmosphere to work out in, and I definitely felt the burn without doing high intensity cardio work! I would definitely go again and recommend to friends!

Laura's kickboxing class is a fantastic total body workout that is very intense, yet a lot of fun with upbeat music and interesting fast paced moves. Great cardio and strength workout. The abs section at the end is killah! I can't wait to go back. Two thumbs way up!

I love the Tuesday night Piyo class at HeartBeats. I look forward to going. Stephanie makes it worth your while and she is AWESOME. She keeps us motivated and when I leave there I feel great.

I started with the Intro to Gymnastics Class and have taken an additional three Level 1 Gymnastics Classes. Each have been a challenge but I'm learning a lot and getting guidance on some exercises to practice at home for strength, balance and flexibility. I excited to take more classes and keep learning...

I started Pilates due to some health issues that have kept me away from the gym and I was also a former competition cheerleader for 20 years and I stopped cold turkey from stretching and let me tell you I am now obsessed with Pilates. I am starting to get my flexibility back and I always leave class exhausted (in a good way) and always feel like I am getting a great workout in!

Very friendly staff. My son and his friends had a great time for his birthday (and got fairly worn out in the process). I will definitely take my sons there again.

Eileen is a fun movitating instructor! Need to adapt the exercise for your knees? No problem, Eileen will show you how! She pushes you to work hard and make the most of the work out. And that's why I'm there!

Dr Joni and Dr Avery have been amazing and are a great team!! Everyone has been fantastic really and so thorough in their evaluations. I couldn't be happier with this process and knowing what was happening along the way! Thank you so much :) I know my little guy is moving in the right direction now

Always intense and always motivating to see everyone push through and get it done! I am eager for the next classes and hate missing one. I highly recommend adding this workout to your routine 2 times a week (Tuesday and Thursday) only hard part is getting out of bed and going! But by 6:00 your workout is done for the day!

Classes are extremely fun! Greg S. pushes you as hard as you can go, but never too much. Once you get the basics down, you become more efficient and get more out of your workout. Staff are all nice and always seem excited to see you! Location is perfect, class times are convenient for anyone with a full time job with regular hours...

The AFC family just continues to grow and grow. Chris I instructs and amazing class and it is so great to see that the rest of us instructors are gearing them up to perform at an amazing level for this class!!!

I had a very nice and pleasant conversation with Dr. Joni. Many of my answers got answered. I got so optimistic and excited that we signed up for the diagnostic plan etc for our oldest son, but as soon as we are financially available I'll sign up for myself. I'm so glad she is located near Fredericksburg, and I don't have to drive farther south or north!

We had a fantastic introductory session with Frank this past week, and look forward to returning soon. Frank exhibited not only a thorough knowledge of Parkour technique and application, but also the kind of positive, fun attitude that was exactly what a pair of absolute beginners would have wanted...

This is a review of a parkour birthday party at Urban Evolution’s Baltimore location. My son is nine years old. He wanted to parkour with his best friends. We went to Urban Evolution for a class to see if he would even be interested in parkouring, since he had never been to a parkour gym before...

I just started attending classes this week , but even now I can say this academy is unique. I have always been into fitness , but to enter a place where both staff and clientele Emily bond and assist each other is quite a refreshing experience. While it may be too soon to determine if the technique sessions will result highly efficient , I certainly convinced this place is accepting and welc

I had a trainer before which ended due to injury. Brian is great with explaining the workouts, showing the appropriate form and the incorrect form to avoid injury. Workouts are always changing which is challenging my body and my mind to push through each circuit rep. . I have noticed changes in my strength and some inches in my clothes, and it's just week two (week of Valentines 2017).

I've been working out with Brian for a couple of years now and it's truly been a life changing experience. I've found him to be knowledgeable but more importantly he is genuine and truly cares about his client's needs. His sessions that are always fun, enjoyable and never boring. He's a wonderful person, a serious professional, and a kick ass trainer! I highly recommend him!

I have been attending polar fitness for about a year and a half now, and have enjoyed every minute of it! I've taken almost every available class, from parkour, to flips workshops, to pole fitness, to aerial silks, and flexibility. I still learn something new from every class, and get an amazing workout without ever even feeling like I'm working out!

my son had a great time today on the new adventure, he was talking how much fun he has, very friendly and he is ready for the next class.

Urban Evolution. I would have never taken the adult class if my 6 year old ninja son wouldn't have discovered parkour via American Ninja Warrior and basically, his life mission. So I've been visiting the studio for weeks, usually sitting (on my butt) while my son jumps into oblivion. I decided to do it with a friend since my husband was out of town...

Attended a free community class and it was great. The instructor was really patient and made certain that we got a workout and a positive beginners Pilates experience. The studio is really lovely too!

At AFC I felt welcomed and comfortable as a new rider . I appreciated the warm welcome and the fact that the instructor new name I also enjoyed the music selection and frequent bike breaks that included upper and lower body resistance training. The staff is always upbeat and the instructor took time to help me with adjustments and provided tips throughout the session to help me work on my form...

First time at the Barre class and now I know why everyone is always talking about it! Thanks Amanda for pushing me farther than I thought I could go. Your classes are always challenging and fun and you are an amazing instructor! Can't wait till I have muscles like yours! :-)

I got a set of rings for my birthday and didn't want to use them before learning how to properly grip them, so I wouldn't hurt my wrists. I contacted Debi Applebee for an hour-long private lesson on the rings, and had so much fun! I learned a ton of exciting tricks and exercises to get me started, and got to see Jeremy show off some really cool advanced maneuvers I can look forward to...

As always, Fo does a really great job motivating me to workout and train hard, which would be impossible if I tried to workout by myself. He uses lots of different exercise routines that are very challenging and tough but always leaving me feel good when I leave knowing that my body is undergoing changes and my goals are being accomplished. Steve A.

First hot yoga experience and it was easy to follow along! You sweat A LOT and don't even really notice until you notice yourself dripping! Instructor was very nice

A couple months ago I went into my first Pilates equipment lesson, and I've been loving it ever since! I've found the reformer is great for realignment, stretching, and toning. I am a former dancer, and the Pilates method has tremendously helped me take care of my body, both from lingering pain and just keeping my muscles engaged over time...

I love everything about Absolute Pilates and Barre! My private sessions, group equipment and barre classes always make me feel empowered. All the teachers bring something unique to each class and the other clients are so much fun. I love sharing my love of Absolute Pilates with everyone I know!

i just took the aerial silks class yesterday and it was amazing. I had so much fun and our instructors were great. This class was the best work out I've had and it was fun at the same time. When I got the move down it felt great. The instructors made it look sexy and fun. I would recommend this to anyone, our group was very diverse.

Great class! I love the toning aspect of the class. 4 Stars only because I would like it to be 1 hour versus 45 minutes!

Staff was excellent! They were great with the teenagers as well as the younger kids. Took the intro class and the white band class right after. My son can't wait to go back!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this class and the relaxed and intimate atmosphere. Perfect mix of cardio, strength and stretching. My friend convinced me to go, and she was right---just when you are over one section, the next begins. Lauren is amazing, and I love the studio space (and apparel). I even went and bought my own Bosu!

I took their Intro to Aerial Silks class and was NOT prepared for the workout I would get. I have been looking for new activities to help get me in shape that isn't as monotonous as running or going to a traditional gym, and this is a great solution. Upon arrival, the front desk was helpful, and I was whisked away to the Aerial room quickly...

Just started here for Boot Camp and I love it!! I'm sore from head to toe, but as they say, "no paint, no gain." Staff is knowledgeable and friendly and very helpful. Love it!!

I love this place! The only "negative" feedback is the floor hurts my feet. It feels like walking on razor blades. But I'm sure it's because of my Fibromyalgia, which isn't their fault. However, it's a major issue for me, and I would really hate to have to go somewhere else just because of a different floor.

Took my 14 yr old son and 12 yr old nephew. They LOVED it. The staff was wonderful. I love that they make sure everyone is fully trained before they can do the activities. We will definitely be going back!

I took the Intro to Aerial Silks class two weeks ago and it was such a fun challenge that I immediately signed up for a 10-class pass! The teacher was, and continues to be, super patient with my horrible memory and need for extra practice of every move. Lol...

I am very new to Powerfull Fitness and working out in general, but I took the Early AM Express Kickboxing class with Laura this morning. WOW!! What a workout! I thought I was nearly going to die, but once I realized I was still breathing I felt great. Laura kept the entire class motivated and on beat. She shared some great modifications available to newbies like me...

Great classes and great staff! I've tried a number of different classes and all the teachers are incredible. No class is ever the same, which keeps it interesting. Not a fan of traditional conditioning and strength training, I absolutely fell in love with Barre classes that offer great toning and no bulk. Highly recommend to anyone looking to tone up or just interested in some self care.

Rebel Fit gives new meaning to Fitfam. From the trainers to the administrative staff, they are personable, well versed with regards to fitness and health and excellent motivators. The time that Beny takes to get to know each member prior and during their membership, speaks to the standard that he sets for his staff and the gym as a whole and it shows!

This was my first ever Hot Yoga experience and it was AMAZING. I am only somewhat familiar with yoga but I never felt like I was confused about any of the moves except one which the instructor was quick to catch onto and helped me correct it. It was overall a great experience and I will definitely be coming regularly.

Brian is an excellent trainer, He's very knowledgable and has helped so many people I know reach their goals! Brians' group classes always challenge me to push past my limits which leaves me feeling AMAZING and energized!!!

I attended a beginner yoga class with Karen and I LOVED it! It was so relaxing, she had such a soothing tone and was very encouraging. I got a really good stretching workout in and afterwards I felt amazing. I will be attending the class with Karen every Monday so that I can strengthen my core, regain some flexibility and get myself back on the path to physical fitness.

Odenton fitness is a great place to go. The staff is friendly and helpful and the classes are a great way to get in shape regardless of age or fitness level. Everyone is very helpful and help motivate you to get on shape.

What can I say about my man FO! He is the ' F' in Fitness! There is never a dull moment in the workout system that he provides. If you want to be pushed to the limit in your workouts, then FO Fitness is the place ro be. Bring your 'A' game because he will always be on his for sure. No surrender and no retreat!

I am HOOKED on Rebel Fit! From day one I've felt like part of the family, the instructors take time to get to know everyone and make sure they know our limitations. Vassie and her eagle eye makes sure I'm giving my all at EVERY workout. I'm soooo glad I made this life decision to be a part of the Rebel family!

Great experience! We took a family outing, where my 10 year-old took the Intro to Parkour, I took the adult Intro to Parkour and my youngest took the Nano class. It was an awesome day, and we can't wait to go to our next class!!

I have been going to Polar Fitness for over two years now and all the instructors are amazing at helping you to achieve new goals. Nothing is ever impossible and everyone is always so supportive and encouraging.

Amanda's strength and tone class really works my dead muscles! I love that she always has modifications for my old body. The dancesations space is great! There is always plenty of room to move around.

Terrific facility and staff! Seriously one of my absolute favorite places on earth! I look forward to my classes there, and hate missing days because of work travel or whatever...!! So much fun!! Myself, my wife, two of our daughters, and our son all take various classes there -- and some of us have done a little of everything! Go check it out and see for yourself!!

I have been training for a sand soccer tournament in June. I met with Lans in December and he gave me some incredible exercises. He has helped me push for maximum number of reps and go through my exercises faster than I thought I could. I highly recommend FO Fitness for anyone looking for personal training or all around fitness ideas!

I love Powerful Fitness . Can't say enough about Laura and the gang! Great bunch of instructors and high quality classes! They help you reach your activity level potential !

Brandi was absolutely amazing during our Behavior Health Assessment. She was very warm and non-judgmental during the session. I left the session feeling calmer and optimistic about the counseling process.

I love Powerfull Fitness. I do the PiYo evening class once a week and it is amazing. But, the real life changing power for me has been to be part of this supportive online community. Seeing pictures and reading FB posts daily has really helped me to figure out how to make positive and lasting changes with exercise and nutrition in my life...

My daughter had an awesome time at the Intro To Aerial Silks this weekend. She worked hard, accomplished each skill to the best of her ability under the eyes of her instructors and had more fun than she expected to have "when you have to work so hard!" She can't wait to go back and is motivated to be STRONG!

Fo's workouts leave you wondering, "am I crazy, or is he?" He's like a habit that you want to break, but you just can't get enough of it. He's innovative with his workouts and challenges your limits--physically and mentally. I've been with FO for three years and NEVER plan on leaving. I hope to see you there! FO Fitness FO LIFE!

My son had his 5th birthday party here and it was amazing!! The gym was the perfect set up to get all of that high energy out and our instructors were so patient and fun with the kids. They started off teaching the kids some techniques like how to land safely and jump and then they took them on a full on ninja warrior course! My son was over the moon and couldn't stop smiling...

I started these classes a couple of months ago thinking that I was going to do it when I can because I probably can't do it any way. This is how I have thought about most excercise programs. My outlook has changed. I look forward to the next class to see what I can accomplish next. The instructors are mindful of what levels we are at and give positive encouragement when needed...

Awesome workout, as always. We were outside since the weather was nice. After some cardio warmups. we used the long ropes and tires (with progressively heavier dumbbells inside), and that took up most of the hour. We finished the workout with 3 laps around the complex. Thank you to Femi and Kamilah!

This is a fantastic class! I've been three times and I can't wait for next week's class. Eileen manages to pack this 45 minutes with an intense, fun workout with a lot of variety of activities for a total body workout. Love, love, love it.

I used to spin 3-4 days per week in college, and have truly missed it. I am SO glad I found AFC! I took my first class with them tonight and am already booked to go back Saturday morning. I love that it's a mix of spinning and off the bike exercises. The instructors are loud and lively, which really makes for an enthusiastic and motivating atmosphere. I highly recommend!

Best form of fitness ever! Couldn't get myself to stick to any form of fitness until I discovered pole. Been here for years and I'll keep coming back

My first visit was great. My 7 year old learned the basics and got a good foundation for future visits. He definitely will be back!

We had our first appointment today with Dr. Joni and she was amazing and very supportive. I'm glad we have her on our team.

We met with Dr. Johnson today. I was very impressed with her knowledge and insight. She listened and offered some great insight into the coming process and treatment. Having been told by another doctor that our son should just be put on medication without even understanding root cause was just crazy. I am so happy Dr. Johnson is more thorough. I highly recommend her from the first meeting.

Kamilah is THE TRUTH! She's more than a personal trainer; she's a life coach. She's making the mind/body merge a reality for me!

Bethesda Boxing has an amazing atmosphere and the coaches, owner, and members are all welcoming and treat you like family. They focus on the fundamentals and proper technique. My daughter (who is 9 yrs old) started with the kids classes, she continues to take them but has also motivated to join the adult classes and Absolutely raves about how much she loves the great vibe...

Incredible facility. Talented, kind and caring staff and coach. I wish we lived closer or they would open up in PA

Love, love, love this PiYo class. It is a great total body workout that combines, strengthening, stretching and cardio for an intense, but fun workout. Stephanie is fantastic! She is strong, positive, and energetic. She helps us to modify all moves as needed. I suffer from plantar fasciitis in my foot and the only days I am ever completely pain free are the days after an evening PiYo workout...
