“From the time I walked in, the co-owners completely treated me with respect. They were so friendly, welcoming and accommodating. Everytime I walked past anyone in this gym they smiled. After researching more about the mission of the gym, and the owners ambitions, I am a proud supporter of Lions Gym. It felt so good to be apart of something with a purpose. I will definitely be back.- Judy”
“Someone designated “local guide” gave a 3 star review had some criticisms and this post is a rebuttal. She speaks some truth and some misperceptions. Wednesday night class and some of the other classes might discourage people with little or no dance background. Knowing some basic Latin dance steps would be extremely helpful. It is also true that the place attracts some awesome dancing talent among the attendees. A few have Zumba shoes. I tend to take the second row and marvel at the beautiful flourishes and expertise the dancers on the first row display. There are also plenty of beginners in the back who manage somehow. No one judges.Cathy uses a technique common among to many Zumba instructors. She demonstrates a move that is expected go on for several repetitions and then stops. She might give hand cues in such cases. She might wander among the crowd to make everyone feel included. The idea is to help develop the muscle-body memory. This is very helpful since that’s one of my weak points. My first Zumba teacher didn’t do that at all. She’s fantastic, but that isn’t her thing.Cathy does give hand signals effectively just as every other Zumba teacher I know. A few instructors out there do like to give verbal cues but that’s a personal choice. Here the music is too loud and the studio too well attended for verbal cues to work. In Zumba instructor training non-verbal cues are emphasized.I quit going to one Zumba teacher in Texas who I personally love because she dumbed down the moves too much. If I pick up a choreo on the first try, I’ll be bored. But, a Zumba class for beginners might be something to consider at this venue.I’ve been 4 similar dance/Zumba studios and the experience has been similar. I give high marks to all the Zumba instructors as well as Cathy. The style is similar. I’ve found that the Zumba sessions given in the various health club franchises are generally simpler and less strenuous, so that might be a better option for some. Pick your style.”

2910 Lyndale Ave S, Minneapolis“I've been to about 4 anytime fitnesses, and I have to say that uptown anytime takes the cake. The atmosphere they create is one of peace, comfort, and great customer service. I'm always greeted when I walk in the door and if I'm not, it's only because they're busy helping a client or member get fit and walk with them through their fitness journey. Brian who I've spoken with when I need any information, is quick to take the time to relay that info. He's always smiling, and you can tell they genuinely care about each person's own personal fitness and wellness journey. The same attitude Brian has shown me and so many others, you can tell his coworkers do the same. I live in Farmington, and I have made this uptown location my main home gym because of the atmosphere and the spectacular customer service. Keep it up Brian and crew! I appreciate all the work you do, I really do! Take it easy!”

5810 Baker Rd Suite 100, Minnetonka“I began working out at Elite Fitness about one year ago. Michelle is extremely knowledgeable and encouraging as a trainer, with additional expertise in nutrition. I have trained both one on one, and on my own with customized written programs. Michelle is very particular about teaching you the correct form when lifting weights. Because of her focus on educating her clients I feel confident in the gym and using the machines on my own as well. I always look forward to walking in the door.I have also utilized her personalized nutrition coaching with wonderful results. As long as you are willing to put in the work, and follow the program you will be pleased with the transformation and gains in strength.The equipment at Elite is top notch and Michelle and Jason go the extra mile to keep their gym extremely clean. I can't recommend Elite Fitness and Nutrition enough!”
“Amazing gym that has everything a runner, biker, nordic skier, etc. would ever want - and more! They go above and beyond providing a top notch experience. For example, they have an entire room dedicated to recovery, with Normatech leg sleeves, massage guns, foam rollers, and even an infrared sauna. Their many Woodway treadmills are the gold standard for long runs or intervals.”

“OTF Minnetonka is one of my favorite studios in Minnesota! It’s the studio I call my women power OTF. Special shoutout to Tay, Carly, Maggie, Isabelle, and Alexa- they are so much fun to take classes with! They each bring something special to class that makes you want to be there and continue coming! I first found the Minnetonka studio by doing the dri-tri, and I feel so lucky to have met so many wonderful people as a result! The coaches are great to meet with for fitness consultations and so encouraging about your entire progress whatever your goals may be. A studio worth visiting and staying at!”
“Mvmt Lab has really changed how I workout. I love the environment and the workouts. Everyone is so nice and welcoming from Becci, the owner, to the trainers. Most of my workouts were with Eric coaching. Love his energy always pushing me to do more & making me realize I’m stronger than I think. Both Will & Eric took my weights away from me to give me heavier ones because “I was stronger than that!” They were correct, cannot argue with that. It was always something new everyday I stepped in there. If you don’t have a lot of time, it’s the perfect way to get an amazing workout in under an hour. A killer workout I must say. Everyone is in there with the same objective and focused on what they are doing. I thought I knew what working out was until I stepped into Mvmt Lab! I really recommend everyone to try them out. They are simply amazing! ??”
“I have attended classes here since fall of 2021 and I can say that all of the instructors that work here are positive, adaptable, and motivating human beings. I love dancing and sweating with everyone I meet. And yes, it is very open to dancers who are beginners and people who just want to move their body and feel good. There is a place for you ?”

Anytime Fitness welcomed me back with open arms! No time or program restrictions ! Equal treatment and opportunities for all. Thank you Major!”
“This place is my second home. I have been involved in CrossFit for 7 years, and 4 of those years have been here. It is one big family. I have so much love and respect for my coaches and fellow athletes. I also took part in the Nutrition Planning with Nellie starting February 2023. She is an incredible coach; non judgemental, always there for advice when needed. The planning and meal prep/organization that I took from this coaching is at almost 1 year. I have seen tremendous gains (or losses :) I dropped a total of 23 pounds that are still off, and body fat went from 18% to 13.6%. I am more lean, and so happy with what I have learned and applied to my daily routine! So thankful for Nellie and this community!”

“Chad is an exceptional instructor, and his experience shows. He pays very solid attention to detail and can appropriately read a students level of proficiency very quickly. The gym itself has more than enough staging and equipment to give someone real room for growth and advancement.”
