I started doing FORMAT's strength & HIIT classes 3-4 times a week over a month ago, and I actually come home from each class so pumped and excited! Thalia, Jess, and Caitlin are all so positive, empowering, and encouraging. I have pushed myself harder than I ever have before and I am already seeing awesome progress. I highly recommend this studio if you want an energized, fun class with instructors who really believe in your full potential!!

Format offers the best high touch/high quality barre, HIT and strength classes in Boston (and yes maybe the universe). I love the HIT/barre combo as I find it a well rounded workout. The owners care so much (they are also teachers) and are building a community within the studio. All of the instructors are top notch and are true "teachers" which is very important especially when it comes to barre. If you are ready to change your body and life go try it! Hint, if you have never done barre give it at least 5 classes...trust me you will be hooked.

Format is AMAZING! The classes are so challenging and rewarding. Thalia, Caitlin and Jess are all great instructors. I personally love their Strength, Barre and HIIT Classes. The instructors give great feedback on exercise form during livestream and in-person classes which I also value a lot as someone who is newer to barre. Cant recommend enough!
