Trainers near Kensington

“I've been going to this gym for the past 10 years and man let me tell you. This is one of the most comfortable gyms to work out in, Nobody judges or bothers you here. I would 100% recommend“

“I’ve been a client at Thesis for almost a year. I was looking for more structure in my work outs and also nutritional guidance. Thesis exceeded my expectations! I’m stronger and healthier than I’ve ever been and I know I wouldn’t have been able to achieve this on my own.

Everyone is super friendly and I’ve enjoyed getting to know the trainers and clients. Special shout out to my trainer, Tan! He is an exceptional trainer but also good friend now. A highlight of my week is spending a couple mornings with him. Thanks for helping me reach my goals and supporting me every step of the way!“

“Training with Britney B at Method in Arlington has been a welcome challenge. I am healthier off for it, thanks to a challenging and thoughtful approach that makes me work hard during sessions while also delivering paths to recover from my injuries. Looking forward to another full year.“

“This was my very first Pilates class, and I absolutely loved it! I’m two months postpartum and was a little nervous going in, but Katharina made the experience so welcoming, supportive, and empowering. She was incredibly knowledgeable and attentive, offering clear guidance and modifications that made me feel safe and confident in my body again. The class was challenging in the best way, and I left feeling stronger, refreshed, and excited to come back. Highly recommend—especially for postpartum moms looking to ease back into movement with an amazing instructor!“

“I can’t say enough good things about UP Bethesda and my trainer, Mo. He somehow managed to get me to stick with a gym and work out early in the morning for months — which is honestly not easy ?.

With his help on both exercise and nutrition, I’ve lost weight, met my goals, and feel so much more energized overall. The workouts are challenging but motivating, and I actually look forward to (finishing!) them.

Highly recommend if you’re serious about results and want a trainer who truly knows how to keep you consistent and accountable.“

“Starfit has helped me get on track with strength training in a welcoming, supportive environment just for women. While I run, swim, cycle, I have not been able to stick to at-home weight training. This studio is a great fit!“

“We had a fantastic experience at Performance Care Clinics! The team is professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about helping you feel your best. Every visit is thorough, personalized, and leaves us feeling better than when we arrived. Highly recommend!“

“I recently participated in a group training session at Train. With Happy Hour Athletics and it was an amazing experience! Tran, the trainer, is highly knowledgeable and created a supportive and motivating environment throughout the entire session.

The group training format was fantastic because it allowed for interaction and collaboration with other participants. It was great to work alongside like-minded individuals who shared similar fitness goals. The trainer is so excellent at adapting the exercises to accommodate different fitness levels, ensuring that everyone felt challenged and engaged.

The training sessions were well-structured and focused on a variety of exercises that targeted different muscle groups. The trainer provided clear instructions and guidance, ensuring proper form and technique. I could really feel the benefits of the workouts, both in terms of strength and endurance.

The facilities at Train. are top-notch, with well-maintained equipment and a clean and spacious training area. The staff was friendly and always available to answer any questions or provide additional support.

Overall, I highly recommend Train. and Happy Hour Athletics for group training. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced fitness enthusiast, the trainers and the group dynamic will help you achieve your fitness goals in a fun and supportive environment.“

“I am so proud to be a member at Opex. The coaches have the best attitudes, the other members are respectful to one another, and I am learning so much! I am making great strides in the right direction for my fitness and health and it has begun with this place. I am ever grateful for Coach Nick and really enjoy working with both he and Coach Erica! I look forward to meeting other staff, I'm sure they are just as amazing.“

“I can recommend Uplift Strength & Spirit most highly. Staff is experienced, professional, welcoming, and supportive. They worked with me to tailor training sessions to my personal goals. Uplift takes a wholistic approach to fitness including lifestyle, nutrition, and flexibility. I had been away from structured gym workouts for over a year and am already seeing positive results after a month in muscle tone, strength, and weight loss.“

“I've enjoyed my workout sessions at Elite Technique in Rockville. Amadu pushes you to your max. Surprisingly, I've been there for a year.“

“I've been working with Ange for over a year and I really appreciate his knowledge, creativity, and concern for my well being. He is always coming up with new exercises to challenge me and I'm amazed at the results. Thank you Ange!“

“Always have a great experience at orangtheory. Staff was very accommodating especially LaNita that helped me with questions I had. I will for sure be back soon!“

“Launch PT and Dr. Jowers are top notch. When I herniated a disc in my neck, I was so limited in mobility and had so much pain, I was on the verge of getting surgery. I came across Dr. Jowers and he got me back to where I was pre injury and gave me the tools to get better on my own, if and when I did reaggravate it. When I tore my MCL a few years later, Launch was my first call.“

“Where to start?
The warm welcome
The professional team
The encouragement when even I did not believe in me….
I have been working with Stanson for two months and wow I have lost 6 pounds gained muscle but mostly feel great!
Thank you Stanson, thank you team foundation fitness….. always a pleasure to walk in and even a greater pleasure to walk out feeling better than I walked in.

Highly recommend for anybody who is looking to look and feel better.Bahareh“

“Edit to my review: 11/30
Something I think this studio does right is meeting where people are. It’s not just on the weight floor but also like do you have circumstances and are telling folks hey this is what’s up- they’re so willing to work with you. It truly does become a family. It’s almost 6 years of OTF and this studio gets it right. Takes a little drinking the OTF cool aid to get your moneys worth - I think like anything the more you invest in (emotionally, mentally) typically the more you can get back out. Love this place with every fiber of my being. ?

I love my H STREET OTF studio- the SAs are all great and knowledgeable and just great humans. SM Alex is a gem and every single coach is amazing. Love Liz, Sam, Chloe, Jeanette and HC PUMA. Phenomenal people that are passionate and truly get to know everyone. Been in and out with injury’s for a while and they help with modifications and are just compassionate people that know! No judgement just fun. ✨? plus these folks have the best music.“

“I really love this gym. This is no cookie-cutter chain gym. This is a unique neighborhood gym and all of the instructors and the staff are awesome. There are flowers planted outside, house plants in the bathroom, it's always very clean. The people who come here are friendly. The sauna is nice. The facility is never too busy, you will always get a machine. The classes are top-notch and offered at a good range of times. I've done several of the yoga classes and a sprinkling of other classes. It's inexpensive. It's easy to get to, with plenty of parking available. They also have a very easy to use app for signing up for classes.“

“Working with Archie has been a complete game-changer for me. He is incredibly knowledgeable and truly passionate about what he does. His understanding of exercise techniques is on another level—he pays attention to every detail of form, execution, and progression, which has helped me train smarter and avoid injuries.
What really sets Archie apart is how he combines training with practical nutrition guidance. He didn’t just give me a generic diet plan; he taught me physiological tricks and strategies that actually make sticking to a healthy diet feel sustainable and even easy. He helped me structure meal timing, manage hunger, and build habits that fit my real life.
The results speak for themselves: I’ve lost over 40 pounds so far and I’m still steadily losing while feeling stronger and more energetic than I have in years.
If you’re serious about transforming your body and your health, Archie is the trainer you want in your corner. Highly, highly recommend!
Thank you, Archie—you’re the best!“

“Solid gym, good layout, recently added benches in the dumbbell area and a few more machines to handle peak busy times.“

“I travel cross country for work so I frequently and most often use my membership for showering. This is a really nice gym and it was super clean! I could not find the parking garage people speak of but I was able to find a pay parking spot which I was lucky was free cause it was night time. One of the best showers I've ever had! Clean, hot water! I will definitely be stopping here again when I'm in town.“

“Caity has been a great trainer! She pushed me and helped me get stronger and feel better, and worked with me to develop the right plan for my needs and level. Highly recommended!“

“I have been loving F45 U Street. It offers a fun, challenging workout and an incredible community. Since moving to DC in January it has quickly become my go-to gym!“

“This is an amazing gym!!! They are so nice and friendly. The workouts are never boring and they have a human element that I think is missing in a lot of businesses. They treat each of their members with respect and dignity and that goes a long way. Plus they are very accessible in terms of communication. 10 out of 10 would recommend.“

“Joining Classic Barbell and training with Danny has been, without doubt, the best thing that I have ever done for my health. Danny's programme is simple but extraordinarily effective, and you see rapid progress over a short space of time. Danny cultivates the most supportive gym community I have ever experienced, taking all of the intimidation out of lifting extremely heavy weights! Can't recommend highly enough.“

“I started personal training with Denys a few months ago. Can’t say enough great things about Denys and the program! Denys really took time to figure out my weaknesses and help grow! Highly recommend“

“Very sore and happy with Barry's. The results with consistency are kicking in and when Elanna yells 'sprint at a 7-9' I'm not scared! Caroline at the front desk was super helpful when I popped in a couple weeks ago with my class pass trial and honestly what had me commit was her to care enough to share that booking through the Baryy's app; you are able to reserve 'your' tread and with being a class pass member you aren't able to do that. It really is about the added touch and detail for client's who are consistent with class.

Elanna, Jasmine, and Philip are my go to and their transitions from tread to floor are so seamless, class goes by super quick. It's the after that you realize you probably blacked out in class a few times and came back to life.

Very happy here! Everyone is friendly here, this is not a pretentious studio unlike the others around here.

*Side note, their smoothie bar, theragun's for use, and elevated toiletries and shower options are worth the monthly membership fees.“
