I really LOVE going to NGUT. The staff is so so friendly, they always take the time to remember your first name, and greet you when you walk in. The classes are extremely versatile, challenging, and have consistent schedules. My favorite part of NGUT is they don’t pressure you into memberships and marketing tactics like other similar gyms. No games, just a safe space for fitness. Highly highly recommend!!

I really love going to NGU. The classes are great! My fav is the Saturday sculpt (shoutout to Amanda!) but all of the classes are so different; theres something for everyone. All the instructors are super kind, welcoming, and helpful too! The vibes are great all around and you really feel a sense of community the moment you walk in. Definitely recommend!!

I started going to NGU earlier this year and these workout classes have quickly become the best part of my day!! Not only is there an array of different types of difficult and fun classes, but the community is unmatched. A very welcoming environment to help you achieve your fitness goals!

I have been doing personal training at NGU with Ali for 4 years now pre-COVID, during COVID and post COVID. NGU adapted to the pandemic and provided virtual workouts which was a saving grace for those of us able to still participate. Ali is extremely intuitive and will alter my workout without hesitation depending on how my body is feeling on a given day. My sessions allows me to stay disciplined and to constantly challenge myself to improve. The best part about NGU is the community feel and support! Thanks for making me Never Give Up!

NGU is THE BEST fitness studio!!! The classes and trainers are amazing. Not only am I getting into the best shape of my life, NGU has also brought me the best community of friends. The studio itself has grown to 3 different workout rooms. The equipment is amazing and the class prices are great. If I could give NGU 10 stars, I would.

I can't praise NGU enough! I started here2 years ago as someone who was not atall consistent in working out (or had aclue what I was doing haha), but over theyears I've gained a lot of knowledge, consistency, strength both physically and mentally, and great friendships as well! I recommend to all levels, the variety of classes is such a plus!

I joined NGU in January of 2022, and I am so happy that I did. The classes are so challenging and rewarding that I’ve actually become a morning person and look forward to waking up for the gym. There is a wonderful sense of community about NGU, and I feel like a valued member of this gym!

I've been a member of NGU for about 5 years. Because of the mixture of classes offered, I have continued to meet and exceed all of my fitness goals.This gym offers a variety of classes that are appropriate for all skill levels.Trainers take the time to mentor beginners to ensure that their form is proper and to fully explain the workout.Veteran members are welcoming and encouraging.If you get the chance, sign up for a Lamar "Strength Class." You won't be disappointed.

I started going to NGU in the fall of 2020 a few times a week (mostly outdoors due to covid) and loved the classes so much that once classes were (safely!) back in studio I bought into the unlimited package and it is 100% worth it. There is an immense sense of community and support from the trainers and everyone who attends the classes. I have definitely seen my body transform and get so much stronger from the mix of classes offered and encouragement from trainers to go harder, lift heavier, run faster. No class is the same and I always leave feeling happy and accomplished.

I have trained with only Amanda and I could not be happier! She motivates me, corrects my form when it's wrong and always has an upbeat playlist. She's the best, definitely check out one of her classses!

joined NGU at late 2017 and only had to leave due to a shift of my work locationFirst off let's just get to the point: This is one of the best choices in the area in terms of cost and quality. The group classes are always small enough to build a good relationship with your trainers and the NGU50 are the most balanced yet challenging bootcamp style workouts you can get in the areaThe trainers (particularly my guy Lamar) are fantastic and passionate about giving you your money's worth and through the pandemic they've been very accommodating with remote classes and safety procedures.Ali if you are reading this thank you for all the positive change you have brought to my life!

I started at NGU Manayunk about 2 years ago. I have done both private personal training and group classes and love them both. This studio goes beyond a "typical gym" -- you get programmed classes that are challenging and will undoubtedly help you meet your fitness goals. The trainers are encouraging and professional. Ali (the owner) is very responsive -- if you have any issues or ideas about how to improve the gym, she responds immediately. For example, I recently suggested a class and she put it on the schedule to test out within 2 days!

This gym is hands down the best in Manayunk and maybe Philly all around! The place is clean, professional and the covid-19 precautions really make it feel comfortable! I even heard there may be some new self defense classes coming!
