Vive Fitness

Love Vive and Swingstate Boxing! Molly, the boxing instructor, has incredible energy, and knowledge along with fun vibrant music! I've definitely become so much stronger health wise. It's my number 1 place to lift my spirits, body and mind! And box with friends in a great, friendly, inclusive environment!

Vive is awesome! The gym is well maintained, has a lot of different equipment and is always very clean (with strong Covid protocols implemented as well). I've been working with my trainer, Laura, on a consistent basis for about two years through both individual and class sessions. She is positive, knowledgeable, and patient. With her guidance, I've been able to set and achieve all kinds of health/fitness goals and am working on more. Laura and the other trainers at Vive make fitness approachable and fun and it shows!

I have been training with Carlee at Vive Fitness for exactly a year & I recommend both without hesitation. As an introvert with no workout experience the thought of going to a gym always terrified me & I appreciate that Vive is a private, trainer-only gym (there are group classes in the space below as well) and no randos are ever there to make me uncomfortable or wander into my space. Vive is full of all the equipment you could ever want, and everything is kept sparkling clean by all the trainers, who are dedicated professionals with hearts of gold.Carlee is a bright shining light & a powerhouse of motivation. Heavily certified and highly knowledgeable, Carlee is just as adept at training for functional strength or bodybuilding, depending on the needs of each individual client...and she always remembers to counts the reps, which I never do. Aside from all of her technical proficiency, she never fails to be positive, supportive and funny, all of which is just as important to keep me motivated, showing up and putting in the work that I sometimes hate to do. You should make an appointment with her right now!

I workout with Kaitlyn E. She is a fantastic and motivating trainer, who thinks carefully about her client's needs and goals. Vive is spotlessly clean and all equipment is sanitized between each training session. This gym is friendly and welcoming, with professional trainers who really know what they are doing. I am so happy I found this place to help me out of my pandemic workout slump!

Jeremy Currie is the best trainer I have had. I’ve worked out with him for over 5 years and my strength, balance and overall fitness have improved greatly with regular workouts. I really like the Vive fitness facility. Each trainer has their own dedicated space which is very well equipped. Highly recommend Vive Fitness and Jeremy Currie!

I love going to Vive Fitness because it's a really well-rounded place with lots of options and some form of exercise for everyone. I train with Ashley for strength/lifting and Molly for her boxing conditioning classes- they're both really qualified and knowledgeable and I love that I can diversify my workout routine throughout the week. The facilities and atmosphere are great and all the staff is really nice and encouraging. I recommend Vive to anyone that likes changing up their workouts and trying new things!

I've been working out with Adam Richards for almost 4 years now. He is unfalteringly professional, and not only does he put his training in exercise physiology to good use, but he is endlessly curious about all things health-related, and is constantly learning new things and is excited to share them with his clients. In fact, I enjoy working with him so much that I followed him to Vive, sight unseen, when he began working here. As it turns out, Vive is the perfect gym: unpretentious, spotlessly clean, good equipment, small but adequately spacious, and with PARKING! The trainers are all super friendly, and the clientele ranges from the elite athlete to the little old grandma - it's very inclusive here because it's about taking charge of your health, wherever you might be in your fitness journey.

I have been working out with Kaitlyn E at Vive Fitness for over 5 years. Vive is a wonderful exercise community. The space is large, very clean, and attractive. Kaitlyn is an amazing trainer! She really pushes me to work out to the top of my abilities while always being sensitive to my limitations and strength level. She is very knowledgeable, her workouts are fun and innovative, and she always welcomes people with a cheerful smile. If you are considering starting up a fitness routine, I strongly recommend you consider Vive Fitness and Kaitlyn. Vive is a great place to workout!

I really enjoy working with Zach. He is really easy to talk to honestly about my fitness goals and always knows how to make workouts tailored to where I am in life (from working on rock climbing goals to recovering from injury and even working out while pregnant). The gym also has a great policy to help keep everything safe, and they have good equipment and atmosphere. I definitely recommend them!

Vive Fitness has been my training gym for 8.5 years since I moved to Portland. I have watched the team start with a small but supportive workout space and grow into a two floor facility with state of the art equipment and a talented, diverse, knowledgeable training staff.Owners Evan and Laura have created and maintain a space that provides a range of safe opportunities for working out in the time of Covid. Each trainer works in a pod, and equipment is cleaned before and after each session. Classes utilize distancing and masks are required in the gym at all times. The focus on the health and safety of all staff and clients creates a much appreciated atmosphere of energy and well-being.My trainer, Kaitlyn Evans, constantly surpasses my expectations as an individual fitness coach. She knows my strengths and limitations and researches how to address both in a comprehensive manner. As I grow in my fitness, she grows in her approach. Our training never feels rote, but dynamic and focused. A wonderful trainer!
