OTF Ballston has been a gamechanger - my husband and I go almost daily. With 3 boys, it has kept us motivated and in shape to keep up with our kids. We use it as a stress release from both our jobs and our lives...and sometimes as marriage therapy! We love the constant motivation from coaches, the great music and community environment. We've been members since 2015 or 2016 and have cancelled plans to make sure we can make it to a class. With busy lives, we love that we can get a great workout in only an hour - it's the perfect solution to keep our fitness goals in check!

For six years, Orangetheory Ballston has been my go-to fitness center. The convenience of its location combined with the consistently high-quality workouts has made it an essential part of my routine.As someone preparing for regular military PT tests, fitness is non-negotiable, and Orangetheory has been instrumental in helping me maintain the required fitness levels. I attend classes about 4 times a week.The coaches are fantastic - supportive, knowledgeable, and push you to excel without making it overly daunting. There's a welcoming vibe that motivates everyone, regardless of their fitness level.The staff keeps the place clean, and the equipment is top-of-the-line, ensuring a comfortable and effective workout experience.

I called to cancel my membership. They said a manager would send me the info to cancel. Never happened.Months later, I notice my partner and I are still getting charged monthly. I call again and ask how can I cancel. They say they’ll leave a note for a manger. I inform them that’s what happened last time and no one ever followed up. They said they’d leave a priority note for a manager this time.I asked, what happens next. They said the manager will call me Monday and understand why I want to cancel. I told them this feel harder than it needs to be.I go in person and get more run around. I look online and find a cancellation link that is very hard to find and complete it.I’m cancelling because I found a different workout routine I enjoy. But I’ll never consider going back after this experience. They made it so hard to leave. I won’t go back.

I have been going to Orangetheory for almost 3 years now and absolute love the workouts and coaching staff. Ballston is hands down my favorite location and has the best energy every time I go in!

When I first moved into my apartment, I wanted to get back into shape, and there were so many options to choose from in Ballston. I decided to try out OTF with a friend but I was really nervous for the first class because I hadn’t been to the gym in a while and i heard OTF was intense..now that I am 4-5 months in, I’m so glad that I decided to try it out. They have great monthly challenges that really push you (never thought i would do a 5K let alone the dri-tri!)I love to just turn my phone off, turn my brain off, and get my workout on.

I am a founding member who started going on July 6, 2015, so going on 8 years now and I still love it. Every class is different, the instructors have changed over the years, but overall I've liked all of them although I do miss some of the OGs. I've gone through periods where I'm there almost every day and then sometimes I'll go a few times a week, but no matter what I know I'll get a good workout. The coaches push you to do your best, but your best on Monday might be different than it is on Wednesday, and that's ok, and no one cares. There are always different options to scale up or scale back. They added the strength classes back which is nice for getting some additional lifting in. I've also gone to classes all over the country and having that option in most places I've been to has been great.

I recently got back into orange theory and I am so happy I upgraded to unlimited. The workouts have been very challenging and every day is different! The Ballston studio is great at mixing up workouts and classes as well as engaging with their members through happy hours or the themed classes. The studio is clean and the coaches, manager and other staff are always so friendly. The coaches are a great source of encouragement during the class and make it a point to demonstrate correct and safe form while conducting the workouts. They offer a 45 minute lift class as well as a 90 minute weekend class in addition to their regular 60 minute classes. Orange Theory is great for all types of experience levels from beginner to experienced. If you live in or near the Ballston area I would recommend this to anyone.

Trainers are great and overall gym is fantastic. However, I received a medical condition and had to cancel. Won't be able to return and I've been trying to cancel my membership for 2 months. Gym completely ghosted me. So now I need to dispute the reoccurring credit card charges. Attached is a message thread where they ask me what I want to do with my membership. Then they ghost me after I want to cancel. I even gave them my medical diagnosis and why I can't continue.

Whenever, I go there I get a weird vibe. The customer service are not friendly and the coaches are not really helpful. There are no assigned stations for certain workouts. I would recommend the other studios.

After two years of working out at home, I rejoined OTF Ballston recently. Nothing compares to the great team of coaches and workouts at OTF. It's a great way to start my day and feel more fit. Wholeheartedly recommend joining!

Great workout - coaching and engagement really helps me push myself. I’ve been to several locations around the northern VA area but usually go to the Ballston location. Coaches have been great at all of them!

I’m a brand new mom who was really looking forward to working out today! I booked the Clarendon 6:30 class only to find out that the class was cancelled due to a power outage. I raced over to the Ballston location to see if I could get into their 6:30 class, which was maybe half full. I walked in at 6:35. I was told by a very unapologetic desk attendant that she could get in trouble for letting me into class after 5 minutes. This was literally as the clock struck 6:36. I’ve been an OTF member for almost 4 years. To be treated like this was really upsetting and really unkind. I won’t be coming back.

Spent around 30 mins on treadmill of 55 min class. I just think they could be a bit more creative if it costs that much.
