All of the teachers I've had are good, they all of seem to like what they are doing and be quite skilled at teaching. They also seem happy to help with and/or are fine with adjustments you may need to make for past injuries or being a beginner who opts for lower weights or different movements at times. I highly recommend this gym.

I've tried a lot of gyms and group fitness classes over the years, and Pearl Street Fitness stands out for the quality of coaching and the overall environment. Kelly is an excellent instructor. She explains movements clearly, pays attention to form, and does a great job making sure everyone understands the workout before getting started. The programming is challenging without feeling overwhelming, and every workout leaves me feeling like I accomplished something. What I appreciate most is that the gym is welcoming to all fitness levels. Whether you're experienced or just getting started, the coaches meet you where you are and create a supportive atmosphere. The community is friendly, the coaching is professional, and the workouts are consistently effective. Highly recommend.

I have been coming to pearl street for a few months now and have had nothing but an incredible experience. Lydia is an incredible instructor (as are the rest of the instructors). Historically I have had a hard time in a work out class because it feels repetitive, I don’t feel like I am able to grasp what I’m supposed to be doing, or the vibes are just truly off… at pearl street I have not been to a class where I do the same work out, I am able to clearly understand what I’m supposed to be doing and I am getting encouragement from the people around me and the coach every time! I leave feeling happier healthier and dropping in sweat! I would and have reccomended pearl street fitness to anyone and everyone I know.

I’ve been going to PSF for a few months now. The instructors are all great and are available to provide input throughout the workouts, but they are not yelling/in your face (which I quite like). I’ve found the workouts to strike a nice balance of allowing you to go heavy with dumbbells and kettlebells, while also incorporating more functional exercises with lighter weight. I’ve definitely felt like I’ve gotten stronger. Classes are easy to get into during the week, but there’s typically a waitlist on weekends unless you book a bit in advance. Everyone at this gym is super friendly!! Highly recommend.

always a great energy and welcoming space. HIIT workouts are intense and kinda reminiscent of F45 style circuits (but better, bc it's a walk over from my house). instructors are phenomenal

Thanks Terry! Our strength focused workouts blend those fun HIIT elements in a unique way :)
