Trainers near Madison Heights

“Eshaan is the man! You can tell he really takes care of his clients. From personal training to nutrition planning to supplement assistance, he will take great care of you (as he's done with me). Can't recommend him enough!“

“What really sets MECA apart is the environment and the people. The staff and trainers are supportive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping you reach your goals.“

“Haven’t seen John in a while because he did so much to alleviate my pain and teach about my body mechanics that I’ve been feeling good for a while now. I’m having some issues recently and thought about him immediately and realized I had never left a review. Highly recommend his services“

“The vibe at A.M. Total Being Fitness is amazing. Anthony, Kris, Sam, Brian, and Elvis make every workout feel personal and motivating. The DEXA scan and VO₂ test were super thorough and really helped me understand what to focus on. I’ve been in and out of gyms for years and struggled to stay consistent, but training here has completely changed that. I actually enjoy showing up and feel genuinely motivated to reach my goals. The team doesn’t just care about fitness, they help build your mindset and spirit too. Highly recommend!“

“I’ve been a regular at RF for about 2.5 years and can’t love this place more. The studio is small with 6 reformers so it allows a more personalized experience with a huge emphasis on form and safety. The instructors are absolutely amazing and you are bound to find one who you just click with. If you are an expert at Pilates or a beginner you will be welcomed!

If it feels intimidating - start with a 1:1 or the foundations class and take the leap! It’s where I was 2.5 years ago starting a weight loss journey and am so grateful for this beautiful plaxe and the instructors (shoutout Kellie, Ang, Barb and Brooke 💙)“

“I’ve been training with Brian at A.M. Total Being Fitness for about 12 weeks so far through a hybrid program that includes both in-person every couple or few weeks and online app exercises, and it’s been an amazing experience from start to finish. Brian’s guidance, motivation, and deep knowledge have helped me stay consistent and confident throughout my fitness journey. His workouts are always well-structured, tailored to my goals, and challenging in the best way possible.

What also makes this gym stand out is the entire team. Elvis always greets everyone with a warm, friendly energy that instantly makes you feel welcome, setting up sessions, and supported. Trainers Sam and Kris also go above and beyond to create a positive, encouraging atmosphere they’re approachable, professional, and genuinely care about every client’s progress. Also the entire team at A.M. Total Being Fitness don’t just focus on the workouts they also prepares a personalized diet plan and conducts heart rate and fitness testing to understand exactly where you are physically, so you can work toward your goals safely and effectively.“

“Best hot yoga & pilates studio in Detroit! The heat is amazing and the teachers are very welcoming and informative about the practices.“

“I came from across the country to attend their recent weekender at recommendation of a friend. He told me that coming back to this studio feels like visiting family, and after only a brief time there I can see why. Almost everyone I came in contact with is so kind and welcoming. Elaine’s generosity and passion knows no bounds, I am so appreciative to have crossed paths with her.
Arlette (I’m sorry if I butchered that spelling) and Roman were even so kind as to get out of their car and sit with with me outside so I wouldn’t be left alone waiting for my uber at the end of the night.

Elaine and her team have cultivated something truly special here for dancers locally and beyond. Thank you for a memorable experience and for treating a stranger as a friend, it means more to me than I can express.“

The studio is clean, well-maintained, and offers a welcoming, private atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable right away. Whether you’re new to fitness or looking for a sustainable way to stay in shape, this is the place to be.

“Brian knocked it out of the park yesterday. I had a wonderful workout and felt great as I walked out the door. Thank you so much, Brian!“

“Dr Bill has been of great influence to me since December of 25’. I love that it’s an interactive experience almost 7 days an week instead of just sitting and talking in sessions once a week only to do no work in between sessions. He is very knowledgeable about mental health, spiritual practices, and physical health! Very valuable service doc offers and just overall a great guy!“

“This is one of the beat and biggest planet fitness I have ever bren to. Really a nice place to work out. Plenty of space and equipments avaibale and never too crowded.“

“I've been attending classes for the past month and a half and can easily say Retrofit has the best format, trainers, and community of any fitness program/gym I've ever been a part of. I've taken classes with Jill, Bailey and Valerie and they are all amazing, helpful and approachable. Don't hesitate of signing up, you'll be welcomed with open arms!“

“8/4/2025 5*
I only started about a month and a half ago, but I've had experience with other boxes before, and this one takes the cake. In this past month, I've tried to meet as many coaches as I could and attended a variety of time slots to get to know the other athletes. Every one of them is good people.
Programming is awesome and challenging.
Coaches are aligned yet offer a variety of coaching styles (all of which I appreciate for different reasons), and injury prevention is shown to be a priority through both programming via thoughtful post-MetCon exercises and the coaches' quick critical thinking for scaling, empathy for knowing how we'll probably want to push ourselves further than we should, and encouragement for when we might have to do less than we want. Additionally, I'm seeing a lot of HWPO-type programming, and Mat Fraser is no-joke one of my heroes. Coaching and programming strongly exceeded my expectations. 5*
Facility is very clean and the equipment is all in good working condition.
For a smaller, local box (as opposed to those giant facility ones), I was surprised to find an AssaultRunner, SkiERG, and GHD as well as stocked showers. At least three ropes! At least two high ring pairs! Aesthetic is pretty cool to me. North and East facing windows are perfect for catching that sunrise and not baking in the evening. Facility and equipment exceeded my expectations. 4*
Classes and fitness community are great vibes.
I know that this is not entirely within the business's control, but I would be remiss not to mention the culture that they have shaped here. All the other athletes are encouraging and friendly. People seem to care about one another, and I truly felt welcomed without any judgment. From jumping between different classes at different times, both the coaches and the other athletes really make it hard for me to choose a favorite class to attend, which is really a good sign imho. Classes and fitness community greatly exceeded my expectations 5*
Extra Credit: Ethical Business Practice and Community
As much as a I am intrigued to see state-of-the-art super-facilities with all the latest tech on a massive scale, I will almost always prefer the smaller local business that both knows the community it's born in and also continuously gives back to that community. I came to this box knowing from its mission statement online that it was an inclusive space and, from its instagram, that it supports a diverse group of athletes. I later learned about how much it gives back to the community with its accessible CrossFit Kids program and donations it puts forth for the nearby school all while shaping our next generation to be upstanding empathic individuals. Additionally, as a member of the LGBTQ community, it mattered immensely to see that they still did an OUTWOD and contributed to protecting LGBTQ members and LGBTQ youth. This is a large part of why I feel safe in this gym. Core City Crossfit also offers a SoberWOD that I believe is free, and while I have not attended, I strongly believe there is immense value to this program and, to be frank, its mere existence has subconsciously already shifted my alcohol intake to much healthier habits; not even my doctor has been able to make such a noticeable difference. Bahaha! Lastly, I don't know if this gets much recognition, but this box has a monthly email newsletter that I actually read through and thoroughly enjoy. That's just a me-thing, but I love it. Ethical Business Practice and Community greatly greatly exceeded my expectations +5*
Overall 5* Thanks, y'all! <3“

“My trainer is Tae he is so patient and understanding, he keeps me going even when I want to stop I'm glad I have had him to add to my weight loss journey“

“One of my favorite locations to go to. I was only there temporary but the lady who works there (golden hair I think, always in a ponytail) is amazing!! She is one of the most sweetest person I ever met at a Planet Fitness. She literally goes up and beyond!! She deserves a pay raise!“

“Christopher Briney teaches with detailed instructions for bones, joints and skin aiming for structural balance, and evenness on all sides of the body. His use of props, blocks, bolsters, straps, blankets, yoga chair, wall and rope pulleys makes this practice accessible for all students, of any age, flexibility, or condition; students can work toward correct alignment without strain. He teachers, the postures in intelligent sequences, so the student may garner energetic, therapeutic and psychological effects. Here Patanjali’s Eight Limbed Path is emphasized; ethics and inner discipline are seen as integral to your journey. He offers workshops to practice asana as meditation
In action, Pranayama (Breath, Life Force, Mind) to assist in stabilizing and aligning the body, with the idea that regulating the breath, leads the senses inward, to steady the mind. If you are an advanced, intermediate, or a beginning practitioner of Yoga, I highly recommend this very well, qualified and certified Iyengar instructor to safely guide you on the path with experience, humor, gentleness and compassion. 🪷✨🙏“

“Great gym. Very nice people, good helpful community. Great powerlifting gym, would recommend to anybody.“

“Hello Fellow Fitness Enthusiasts!If you are serious about getting into the "your" best shape, you can't go wrong with Lazet and The Life Center Private Fitness Facility. I lost 20 pounds in approximately 6 months. I am able to keep those extra pounds off by working out with Lazet and her team 3 days a week and making healthy meal choices. You can have the same results. You are not too old to get in shape. The best way to combat the signs of aging is to get fit and make healthy food choices. I am proud to admit that I am 62 years old. I am asked regularly if I am in my 30's (which of course I answer YES!).Thanks, Lazet!“

“The best. Community, programmed workouts, amazing atmosphere, friendly faces. You will love it here!“

“Going to Hyrid Training at Strength Lab is so much more than just going to a gym class. Phil is so attentive to every person there, making sure you are using the right techniques to prevent injury.“

“Graham and his team are the best in the business. We don't realize how fortunate we are to have a facility and trainers like OmniKinetics in Michigan. Do yourself or athlete a favor and check them out.“

“Where do I even start on Keli and her studio. If you are looking to transform yourself and be part of something special then this is your place. There is nothing like her curation of workouts, NOTHING! I have lost 60 lbs post baby in 7 months and the fittest I have ever been! She will make you see a side or yourself you didn’t know you had! Best part is her privates allow you to bring your baby so you can get back to feeling great and not worry about being without your newborn to get an incredible workout in. She educated me on how to properly get into working out post baby and beyond. Her workouts keep your body strong but feminine! She is so knowledgeable, professional, beautiful inside and out! Thank you Kel for everything you do and accommodate for your clients, you are one of a kind!!“
