I love this gym! I've done circuit training at several gyms and this is my favorite by far! Catering to women of all ages, John and Katie are great about adapting workouts to all levels, limitations and abilities. I don't feel the pressure I did at other gyms about not being able to keep up someone much younger than me (I'm 54), but still feel challenged (in a good way). Aside from the workout, I love the community in Get In Shape. Both John and Katie take the time to get to know the members personally and everyone is super supportive of each other. Whatever your age or fitness level, if you're looking for a great workout at a gym that won't make you feel self-conscious, this is for you!

They are always coming up with ways to improve the services they offer and have a personal relationship with all the members. I highly recommend the Porter Square GISFW.

The trainers and owners are always there for support in exercise and for nutrition.They are professional, always knowledgable, and encouraging. Tailored to the needs of each woman, the workouts are just the right amount of challenging. The appointments are key for me--I don't have to wonder which day and time I am going to exercise! Great place.
