Amazing classes -leave you in a better mood and with a good sweat however don’t try to call or reach out on social media but you won’t get a response and if you show up to class even two mins late the door will be locked!Reply to reply-I completely understand your policies but I attempted to call for a heads up on my two minute delay and no one answers the phone-and I have messaged your social accounts and never gotten responses-please understand I love your classes but this again makes it tough to communicate with your team about lost and found water bottles, running a minute late or something else!

I was in town and decided to try this place out. Did hot yoga for the first time and boy let me tell you, WHAT AN AWESOME WORKOUT AND AWESOME TIME! Molly was our instructor and it being my first time ever, seriously couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. She welcomed me as soon as I walked in, asked my name and knew I was a first time guest right away, had my a locker with my name and things set up for me. I felt SO welcomed, it was extremely inviting. I cannot wait to come back into town just to go back. This wasn’t just a workout, she inspired me in so many other ways, especially mentally. Can’t wait to come back!

Not from the area, The Works was recommended to me. I still gave it 5 stars, but parking is tough. Get there early enough to find a free spot in residential, or pay. No biggie, I found it free. I wouldn't say the music was too loud, but there were times when I couldn't hear the instructor. With that said, I still give it 5 stars. Maddie brought a great flow...and the heat!! I highly recommend giving them a try.

The works did us well for our short time in Charleston. The classes were consistently challenging and therefore rewarding. The instructors were all exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable in any class that we took. Highly recommend!

The Works offers a truly challenging, fun, and motivational group fitness. I have been going to both the yoga and cycling studio since they opened and my experiences at both places have always been positive and enjoyable. The workouts themselves have always been therapeutic for me and there is a true sense of community in the room. The instructors are dynamic and versatile in their teaching styles, and all of them are caring and approachable people. I highly recommend Katie P for a cycling class or Mimi for a Deep Stretch or rigorous Vinyasa flow if you are curious to check them out! You will not regret it (:

I’m a huge fan of The Works. I attended 10-15 classes while I lived in Charleston for a month.Things I liked:(+) Intensity of workouts: Each class pushes you to your limits. I never left thinking I could’ve pushed myself much harder.(+) High energy environment: The room is really well-designed (mirrors, acoustics, lighting) and there’s a strong communal vibe you feel when you’re surrounded by others in this space.(+) Quality of instructors: Overall they were fantastic. I particularly loved Mimi’s classes as I thought she struck a perfect balance between intensity and meditation, in addition to inspirational speech and quiet reflectiveness.As far as feedback I would offer to take it to the next level, I would consider ways to accommodate a wider range of class preferences. I personally like vinyasa yoga classes which are more meditative with less intense music, dimmer lights, and less talking from instructors. Even in the Deep Stretch, there is a lot of sermon-style talking from instructors. While it’s often inspiring, I’d prefer more introspective offerings which are still active. Additionally, I would prefer to have more pure yoga options which have fewer HIIT-style exercises.

Best group fitness experience! I’ve been going to The Works for years since before they officially opened and have never been so consistent with a work out. All of the teachers are awesome. Every class is different, but somehow it’s all cohesive. I can genuinely say I enjoy going to these classes and miss the studio when I’m away for too long. That’s how it should be! So far, I’ve never come across another fitness studio like it. It’s completely approachable, yet they push you to work hard all while listening to your body. Definitely give it a try if you haven’t yet!

I was visiting from Delray Beach Florida and used to my wonderful hot yoga studios in search of somewhere I could practice in Charleston. I found the works and had the most amazing class. I was smiling and happy throughout the entire class, the instructor Susan had the absolute best energy and I got exactly what I needed. The studio is beautiful and clean, the energy was very welcoming. I highly recommend it will definitely return! <3 ;-D

I have been doing The Works (both downtown and Mt. P) for a few months, and every class is great, HOT & hard! But I really wanted to brag on The Works Cycle for a moment. These classes are high energy and FUN! Each instructor is so kind, helpful and full of positive vibes. The best part is you can make your workout as challenging as you'd like. I am so motivated and clear headed each time I leave class! Keep it up guys!xo Meredith

I can’t say enough about this space and the impact it has had in my life.I’ve never been someone to do group classes, when I worked out I always went to the gym alone and did my thing. In August I went through a pretty big life changing event and a friend invited me to The Works. I came with very little expectation because I’d been to a yoga studio in Charleston before and I felt so out of place. My experience here couldn’t be farther from that. It’s not just a group workout class. The Works Studio has been a safe place for me to go and do work. Mental, physical, and spiritual work. I’ve gained so much confidence, I’ve gained a community, I’ve connected to something higher. This space is truly not able to be explained in words so come and experience it for yourself! I hope it’ll change your life too🤍
