I had a great class at OTF Third award! I love the ambiance in the studio as well, very “Milwaukee” with the exposed brick! The coach did correct my form, and gave me alternate movements when necessary. I always have a great workout at OTF but I’m a BIG FAN of the Third Ward studio! 😅 …

The staff was incredibly rude and unaccomodating to my mom. My mom had accompanied me to a class in hopes of joining. We arrived 15-20 minutes early. The woman at the desk was very rude and would not allow my mom into the class because we …

The OTF workout is always different, so I like that I never get bored working out. I also love the feedback and critique of form so that you get it right in real time. I usually hate running on treadmills, but the variety and change of …

Loved many things about the workout, the orange lighting seems to help you focus on the workout, the screens with everyones information is beyond helpfull and being a competative person it helps push me to go harder. Cleanliness is important to me as I've seen other gyms lacking in that area and you sure notice it when gym drop the ball in this area. I like that the instructors personally hand you wipes for you to clean everything you have touched. The class sizes seem just right and you get a personal level of attention from the trainersI enjoy doing classes like Les Mills but I feel that Orange Therapy classes take it to another level.

I've tried a lot of gyms in Milwaukee the past few weeks. Not one bad experience....until now. Orange Theory got my number somehow and were cold calling me all week to set up a time to come in for a free class. I scheduled one for a Saturday morning. They made me put a credit card on file. When I got there they turned me away. They said I had to be there 30 minutes prior to class starting, not 15. They told me I could not work out that day. I was a little confused as every other gym I have ever worked out in just has you sign their waiver. Most gyms bend over backward to get you to try their gym. Not Orange Theory. They wasted my morning and then asked when I wanted to come back. I was like "Are you serious"? Curious to see if they charge my credit card.Orange Theory is an overpriced corporate gym with crazy rules and polices. My sense is, once the hype of it goes away, Orange Theory will go the way of other corporate gyms like LA Fitness that have failed in Milwaukee.

I'm pretty out of shape and I'm new to Orangetheory. I've always been afraid of gyms and being judged. I decided to come to OTF because I liked the smaller class sizes and I was looking for a place that could become a regular place for me. …

The music was perfect with a great beat, variety and highly motivating. I personally got a fantastic workout both days. I especially enjoyed your enthusiasm, friendliness and welcoming nature. It was my pleasure to attend your studio and I would highly recommend this studio to anyone who wants to try OTF. Would give you and your studio a 10/10.Thank you for the opportunity to attend your studio!

I have been coming to OTF Third Ward since they opened in September. The coaches give great guidance to the workout and can tailor everything to your ability. Each class is structured similarly where you either start out on the treadmill for half of the workout or rower/floor for the other half and switch halfway through. My favorite part OTF is the atmosphere. The coaches know how to push you to get the most out of your workout and I always feel so energized after each class. Orange Theory pushes me to work harder than I ever have or would on my own at the gym.
