Love this place. Difficult classes that make you sweat, instructors that make sure you use good form.
I can't ever leave Bed-Stuy, because how could I live without this gym?

Wow, I’ve been going here for 5 years and never wrote a review ??♀️ The Fit In is amazing. The classes are challenging and rewarding, the schedule has a great balance of morning and evening classes, the prices are good, and the community—from Ife, Denise, Hayet, Manny, and the other stellar instructors to everyone who takes class—is beyond compare. And I think the community part is especially important because, unfortunately, not all fitness spaces make you feel welcome.
Thankfully, The Fit In does and makes exercise enjoyable for people of all fitness levels. It’s truly one of my favorite parts of living in Bed-Stuy! #obsessed

I used to love this place but Sireena is so unpleasant and has such an attitude. The other instructors were great. Unfortunately, Sireena is teaching a lot of the classes that I used to enjoy.

I’m so grateful that I found The Fit In. All instructors are all so kind, fun, and supportive during workouts. I love that there are three different locations within 20 minutes of each other and that when I buy my monthly pass I have the option to take classes at all three. Prices are also very reasonable, a month pass (4 classes per week) averages at $15 a class. They also have Pilates in the park, health events, and community happy hour.I just purchased my third monthly pass and I’ve seen such an improvement in my strength and lower back pain. I can’t wait to see where I’ll be at in a few months.

Having recently left my prior studio due to personal schedule issues, I saw The Fit In as a potential new workout spot. Seemingly catered to femme-presenting people, yet still offering strength training classes beyond traditional pilates, I thought it would be a good place to add variety to my usual routine. I bought the Newbie and Rookie class packs and had three wonderful classes. That said, I was deeply disappointed with the studio owner's response to an error with their notification system. A text message from their system told me my class was at "The Fit In." However, the class was actually at another location. I received no booking confirmation telling me of any other location and had not checked the website before leaving (like I had done before), since I assumed that the text was correct. Because of this, I arrived at the wrong studio and would be late for my upcoming class. I emailed the studio explaining the circumstances and apologizing for my absence. Because I had gotten comfortable at The Fit In and saw it as my new studio, I requested the missed class be rescheduled and hoped that, by drawing attention to this issue, the studio could prevent future confusions like mine. In response, the studio owner questioned why I couldn't walk to the other studio (after having already walked to the incorrect one) or drive there. I do not have a car. Less than half of NYC has a car. I told them that, while those were certainly options, I couldn't justify buying an Uber for a three-minute car ride and paying MORE to make up for their mistake. I also informed them that, in preparation for a fitness class, I was dressed to work my muscles, not walk against cold winter breezes. Their response? No-shows to classes are non-reschedulable, even if the reason for missing the class was because of their system. They also told me their messaging system does not mention which location class is held at (contrary to my screenshot) and questioned "how I got to my classes before." If you are looking for a community welcoming to newcomers, look elsewhere. They would rather gaslight their new customers than accept they made a mistake. Overall, I guess I didn't have the right Fit for this studio.

A fantastic studio that will get you moving and grooving. The instructors are all amazing and if you come consistently they will challenge you and up your weight. It's a great way to push your limitations and have fun. The group of women and folks who attend are all supportive and friendly. I love all three Fit In studios.

For the price you can't beat it. Never overcrowded and can always get whichever machine you want. I've been going there for over 5 years. The lead trainer is the man to talk to if you have any questions.

I'm sitting here on my couch writing a review for my new fav fitness studio. While I feel like I've been hit by a Mack truck, I can say that it's all for the greater good of hot girl summer 2022. I purchased a 10 pack "Dirty 30" pass which they started during the pandemic to limit the number of people in a class, and within these past two days I have taken Stronger w Ife and the reformer Pilates class. I love how small the class is and how all the trainers help and push you pass your limit. It's been so good to move around to get rid of the quarantine 15! Also great to support small businesses whose mission is to make fitness classes accessible to the local community. I really dig their business values. I am looking forward to more classes and getting my butt in tip top shape!

I have signed up for so many classes and haven't attended because I have "gym anxiety". HOWEVER, the Fit In has eliminated that feeling!I have never felt more comfortable at a fitness class before. I recommend the Fit In to anyone that wants to get fit in a warm and accepting atmosphere.

Best fitness studio in Brooklyn. Such a great group of knowledgeable teachers. Ife, Francheska, Kali, Hayet, Sireena and Joy N. are my core crew, but they're all so good. Def check them out.

Stayed in the local area for 2 weeks and loved this place. Super welcoming to a complete novice like myself, small focussed class sizes, great atmosphere from the staff and the other participants. I'm genuinely sad that its no longer just round the corner.

I am in Brooklyn for a month and stumbled across this studio and I wish everywhere I lived had a studio of this caliber close by. I have only taken two classes but both times the attention to form, which is so critical in pilates, was on point. The studio is very clean, with updated equipment. The music was fun, everyone is friendly and I'm extremely sore in all the right places. I signed up for more classes and I'm excited to use them. Note the space is small but not cramped, perfect with the class sized I experienced. I would book in advance just in case.
