I signed up for a free class, but changed my mind on going to this gym. I didn't call to cancel, but I assumed it would be fine. They ended up charging me over $30 for being a no show to the free class. In my mind, if you said it would be free, then it is free. When I called and asked about it, they said that they lose money when spots aren't filled that could have gone to paying members, but you weren't going to charge me to begin with?Warning: They will charge you if you are a no-show for the "complementary" free class

Waste of time. Had called multiple times with no call back. Needed to cancel membership due to lack of time but they Refused to cancel my membership unless I drove 45 min to the location to sign a piece of paper when it couldn’t been emailed.

LOVE OTF! Everyone was so welcoming my first time I came for a class and I love the days I go to class! They make it feel like you are a big family when you are there!

The studio manager is rarely there when classes are running and has run out 3 coaches in 6 months plus sales associates turn over so quickly that most are half trained and left to run it by themselvesClasses and coaches are great (when they can keep them)Also they bribed all their members to get all the perfect reviews so take it with a grain of salt

I’ve really been enjoying all of the fitness classes I’ve taken at college downs orange theory! The trainers are very helpful, friendly and I always leave feeling accomplished!

I joined OTF in 2017 and have loved the workout for both physical and mental benefits. I've been to a lot of studios and taken classes from a lot of coaches. I recently took a class at another studio where Coach Kenisha was filling in and it was incredible. I quickly recognized her as one of my all-time fav coaches. As a result, I'm driving a little further to come to this studio so I can take more Coach Kenisha classes. I cannot recommend her enough!

Awesome experience, have been coming here since February and every time I show up for class it's always motivating to work out and try your hardest to improve. I recommend 100% if you're looking for a motivated group to start a healthy journey.

I first started Orangetheory at the beginning of this year in January not knowing much about it. Upon starting my OT journey from then to now I have been amazed at the results and staff at this studio! Everyone knows you on a first name basis and your preference on where you’d like to start class! Definitely recommend as it is a family atmosphere and everyone wants to see you push new limits no matter your fitness background! If you are a first timer or nervous about trying something new, I highly recommend OT!
