Trainers near Takoma Park

“Great place for personal training and guided strength and fitness classes. No fake “let’s go ppl” kinda of training, just solid supportive motivation and encouragement, with safety in mind at all times.“

“My husband and I have been going to Thesis for the last six weeks and are already seeing amazing results! Vedall and Quentin at the Tyson’s location have been incredible to work with, and I can’t recommend this place enough!“

“For ten years I’ve tried personal trainers/gyms in Northern Virginia, and none have come close to Connor Gannon’s expertise in creating individualized workouts to keep my mid-60s bones dense and halt muscle loss. The positive atmosphere and highly skilled trainers at Method mean EVERY client will feel welcome and respected regardless of age, weight, or fitness level. I regard my Method workouts as preventative medicine for a healthy heart and body. For me, this is more important than spending money at fancy hair salons, or on manicures, spa treatments, Botox, etc. Strength training is key for aging gracefully.“

“Love RTR. Payment/membership options are super flexible and can be used across clubs. Easy booking. Tons of great classes and instructors are all amazing.“

“Joining EVOL has been one of the best decisions I have made in my adult life as it relates to my overall health. The trainers are excellent and the environment is very positive. I love the culture that pushes you to reach goals that never seemed attainable.

Jason Nkwain, provides impeccable training services and has an encouraging personality. I believe he has created and maintained high standards that have been transferred to the way I prioritize my fitness goals. It’s great energy! He is professional, motivating, and challenges me to push myself to improve. I value his competence, consistency, and feedback. I appreciate the ways my training is individualized for me. I feel valued as a client.“

“Invictus is the BEST! The coaches are caring, knowledgeable and want to see each member get better. It is a huge gym, with plenty of equipment and varied workouts, which push me to improve every day. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this gym and community!“

“The instructors are excellent, there is a large selection of classes, and the multiple locations are convenient. Customer service is also very prompt and helpful. For an organization to care about its clients and have a personal touch is a rarity these days, but RTR has it.“

“All the trainers here are phenomenal. They are a good mix of hard on you while also encouraging! They will 100% help you hit all the goals you want to hit as long as you show up. I’ve lost 20lbs since starting and have kept it off. I’m so grateful for this team and group of trainers. Stephen is my guy so ask for him and he will get you right !“

“Dr. Rosalie was exceptional. She gave me lots of stretches and strength training exercises that promptly resolved my running injury. She knew exactly how to target my issue with a large focus on improving my range of motion. She has a very high level of knowledge and is very personable. I highly recommend her.“

“StarFit is fantastic! It was my first real gym experience and I felt welcomed and at home from day 1. I love how each workout feels balanced while also pushing me. Definitely recommend if you want an inclusive environment with great trainers!“

“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!“

“Caity is an amazing trainer! I enjoy our sessions soo much! She motivates me even without trying. I feel empowered and encouraged by Caity every step of the way.“

“Highly recommending ... the sense of accountability has been a game changer for me. They bring the importance of nutrition, recovery and mental well-being to the next level.“

“I’ve had the privilege of training with Archie twice now, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the results. Fifteen years ago, Archie helped me achieve amazing transformations, but life, family, and career took me away from the gym for a while. When my health started to become a concern, I knew I had to get back to Archie.

In just a month and a half of training, I’ve already lost 20 pounds of body fat, gained significant strength, and built noticeable muscle. Archie’s approach to nutrition is incredibly effective—he regularly checks in and gives advice that makes the diet easy to sustain. His knowledge and attentiveness are top-notch, and he’s always there to help keep you on track.

If you're serious about transforming your body and improving your health, Archie is the trainer you need. I highly recommend shooting him a text. You wouldn't regret it.“

“I was pretty nervous heading into my first kickboxing class, but all my jitters disappeared as soon as I walked in and met Chellis, the studio owner. Not only was she warm and welcoming, but she also happened to be my instructor for the session. Chellis guided me through everything—from wrapping my hands and nailing the perfect stance to executing strong punches and mastering proper kicking form. I was having so much fun that the time just flew by! By the end, I left the studio sweaty, energized, and so proud of what I’d accomplished. I can’t wait to come back for more!“

“It's hard to find a fitness studio that provides multiple streams of physical and mental wellness in such a boutique setting. Bryan and Kylie have created a community that makes everyone feel at home while personally investing in their clients fitness goals.I have been training with Tucker three-times a week for the last nine-months. Tucker has a rigorous, but easygoing approach to training that creates a highly motivating, yet low-pressure environment.  When I do have to reschedule a session, Tucker is always flexible and accommodating. Not only has my overall health, strength and endurance improved, but I have found the experience something I look forward to.If you are considering 1:1 personal training and want a well-equipped neighborhood studio setting, I couldn't recommend BC Strength more!“

“I’ve been coming to uplift for almost 4 years and there isn’t a better place to strength train and get fit! Nancy and her team create an incredibly holistic plan based on science and technology for you so it takes the guessing game out of working out. If you follow the plan you get results. The trainers are so great and I’ve made some incredible friends.“

“Working with the team at the Exercise Coach in Cleveland Park has been great. I have seen a really marked increase in my strength and muscle tone.“

“Swedish massage, 60-minutes with LMT Charles Oddenino. Opted for the hot stone treatment. It was great. Highly recommend.“

“I can't give enough praise to Foundation Fitness and the Georgetown staff. From intake with Kimior to a year later of working out with the amazing Michaela, I have had a great experience. It is evident that Kimior has put much thought into creating a gym environment that is warm and welcoming to people of all ages and in all stages of their personal growth. I love that they emphasize health in its entirety--including sleep, nutrition, stretching/flexibility, muscle growth, fat loss (if that's your goal) and even a positive mental health. Michaela, in particular, has been an absolute blessing to my health and wellbeing. She is always ready to adjust my workouts based on my ongoing injuries and soreness, and has even implemented more mobility work to help with my injuries. It's like PT and a workout all in one, so instead of just feeling sore and in pain, I feel sore and strong. Thank you to this wonderful team and place. Happy to have found you all.“

“By far the best workout in DC. I’m a Physical Therapist and have tried many workouts in the area, and not one compares to the level of expertise you will get with Katie, Burns \\u0026 Garrett. The programming is top notch - well thought out to not only give you a good workout, but to hit those muscle groups that are commonly ignored in other group workouts. They can easily help you modify if something is too difficult or if you are working through an injury. Big bonus - the community they’ve created is amazing. Everyone is welcoming and it’s a group you look forward to seeing every time you go to class. 10000% recommend!“

“I can't say enough good things about Marvin! As a 65-year-old looking to stay fit, I was a bit apprehensive about continuing my fitness journey with a personal trainer, but Marvin has completely changed that. He truly is a gentle giant—his approach is attentive and supportive, yet you can tell he means business when it comes to your results.
What I appreciate most is his professionalism. He never resorts to the loud yelling or over-the-top motivation that some trainers do. Instead, he creates a positive atmosphere where I feel encouraged to push myself without feeling pressured.
Marvin is incredibly understanding. There have been times when I’ve fallen off the wagon, but he never makes me feel guilty. Instead, he listens and encourages me to pick right back up where I left off. His support is invaluable, and he always reminds me that it’s about progress, not perfection.
What’s more, Marvin has never once made me feel limited by my age. Instead, he encourages me to go after what I want and truly soar with the eagles. His belief in me has made a world of difference in my motivation and self-confidence.
I wholeheartedly recommend Marvin to anyone looking for a personal trainer. He is my hero, and I appreciate everything he has done for me! Whether you’re a beginner or more experienced, you can trust Marvin to help you achieve your fitness goals while making the journey enjoyable. Thank you, Marvin!
I appreciate you! ~Sharon“

“Great place for training in the martial arts. Always personalized for individual's own challenges and potential. Reliable and trustworthy family run place that has successfully operated in Bethesda for more than 20 years.“

“I lost 46lbs and 6% body fat and I am very happy with the progress made on my Body Transformation Journey! I feel more confident than ever, no longer hiding behind my clothes. I feel more confident walking into rooms. People I haven't seen in a while tell me how good I look, and it makes my day because I know the work I put behind it shows.Before my fitness journey with Jé, I never truly felt comfortable in my skin because I struggled losing weight and thought I tried everything. I played sports throughout high school but quickly gained weight in college, and once I graduated, I was on the hunt for ways to live a healthier lifestyle.I had so many questions about how to eat, lose fat, gain muscle, and work out in an enjoyable way—Jé had the answers! From the very beginning, I saw someone who believed in me and would push me to reach my goals. Joining Battle Fitness has kept me accountable and taught me how to have a healthy relationship with food and working out.I have tried another trainer before, but they didn't pay as much attention to detail as Jé did with my workout and nutritional guidance. With Jé, I could see results almost immediately.Training with a semi-private group makes working out fun! Though we have our individual goals and are at different points in our transformation journey, we are able to push each other to keep going. I remember during my first training session virtually with a group, I was struggling to complete an exercise - another client who was further along on her fitness journey gave me a quick pep talk to keep going, that it would get easier with time - That showed me that not only did I have a personal trainer but I also had a community that had the same drive and goals as I did.Training virtually gives me the flexibility of working out wherever I want, whether at home or out of town, making training 10x easier, and forces me to ditch the excuses for why I can't work out. I work long hours, and it's nice not to have to rush to a class or gym. I can even have dinner cooking at the same time as my training session! I always thought I would need to buy all the intricate machines that a gym has, but Jé has proven that with very little equipment, I can achieve my goals.I learned a lot about myself and my body over the course of my fitness journey and I'm so happy I joined Battle Fitness.“

“Cregory is a wonderful trainer. I began working with him when I was 8 weeks postpartum and he has been terrific -- always on time, motivating, and able to adapt exercises based on my needs. He has a ton of experience with women postpartum and understands how to adjust workouts accordingly (which is super important to avoid injuries) especially as a result of a c-section. He is extremely responsive and a pleasure to be around. He is results and goal oriented. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a personal trainer.“

“I have had an excellent experience at 1to1 fitness. Jasmine, my trainer, guides me through both traditional and unique exercises that meet my physical needs. I have been continuing to gain strength since I started, without injury, which has been an issue in the past. I would highly recommend 1to1 fitness.“
