Highly recommend this place. Staff are friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. Love that they offer 30 min. workout classes during/around lunch time and don’t let the length of class fool you, you walk away feeling great and completely worked out. Also, loved how they provide towel, shampoo, body wash, conditioner AND a blow dryer 🤗.

The studio is clean and has great amenities and convenient for me since I work in Fidi. While I have gone to various classes with different instructors, I now only go for Aemar's classes. His energy and music are consistently pumping and I really appreciate that not only do I get a solid workout, he cares about form and doing the exercises properly. I recommend checking out the studio, especially Aemar's TRX and cycling classes.

If you like to feel clean, refreshed, and bacteria free after a workout, so you can proceed with your day, without being stinky, this is NOT the place for you. The shower was out of body wash AGAIN 😕 (update 1: it's 2 days later and it still hasn't been refilled 🤷‍♂️; update2: body wash was finally refilled on day 3; update 3 (mar26): it's 5th day that men's locker room has been without a hair dryer)

My wife and I have been coming here for a few years now and things have only gotten better! The equipment is all solid, the whole place is clean and fresh, new yoga studio (and more to come from what I've heard,) and great instructors! The attention to detail is one of my favorite things. Like free towel service and real quality shower products. Things they don't need to do but it shows they're all about the customer. Highly suggest just stopping by and trying a class (we love Carl's and Suhail's!)

My husband and I have been coming to this studio for several years now and enjoy trying the different classes. Every class and each teacher has something different to offer, which is great! The different classes and teachers cater to people who like variety and those who prefer to find the best fit and stick with that. For those who may be intimidated by the type of class - don’t let that scare you! Be it cycling, yoga, trx, etc. the teachers are all great with providing alternate moves for beginners or allowing everyone to push themselves for their current fitness level.We’ve enjoyed the fun and challenging classes so much that we’ve brought friends and family with us. At Wheelhouse you’ll find fun classes, friendly staff, and nice complimentary boutique amenities. For my husband, he always enjoys the healthy snacks available after a good workout!

After much debate on giving 3 or 4 stars I decided to go with 4 for the good days. Without those I would give 3 stars for cleanliness. They encourage you to wipe down your mat with wipes at the end of class (grabbing a wipe without gloves may be okay for some). Even if you wipe your mat down the space is usually littered with hair all around you to the extent of seeing the occasional dust bunny during class. The showers are often gross seeing the same mess the next day, let's not talk about the tile. Amenities run out but the front desk staff is super nice and will act on a reminder. Carpet in the lockers rooms is really bad, it wreaks. On the bright side, the staff are all super friendly and helpful! I've had some classes where I've felt amazing afterwards and some that were just okay. Overall I will return and I would recommend it but maybe just for the occasional class. Oh and I mostly did yoga here.
