Trainers in Brooklyn

“I've been coming here for nearly three years now and it is one of the best gyms I've ever been to.

What really makes it is are the coaches. This isn't a typical gym where you walk in anonymously, use some machines, and walk out. This is a gym where you work with a coach, you get a personalized training program, and you get coaching/advice when you're working out (if you need/want it).

I've gotten to know a number of the coaches over the years and they're all good people who have the interest of their clients at heart.

The gym has a great selection of equipment, but not many machines. That is a good thing in my eyes. Working with free weights has always been my preferred workout. They do have a few machines to help with cardio (rower, ski erg, assault bike).

The gym has a great culture. The clients and the coaches are very friendly, helpful, and attentive.

If you're looking to get some help getting a workout routine going, get some accountability, and just get into fitness in general, this is a great place. I recommend it.“

“Best PT facility and therapists in the city. Personal one on one interaction with knowledgeable, caring therapists. All staff are friendly and helpful.“

“A really great gym. Motivating workouts, friendly instructors, classes at all times of the day. I always leave there sweaty and feeling accomplished!“

“The reason I chose EMS fitness was back pain after a spinal injury. I noticed improvements almost immediately, within the first week of training. A nice bonus was reduced body measurements and improved muscle definition. It’s a great alternative to long hours at the gym. I definitely recommend this place! ❤️“

“I’m writing this from Australia, just over 9 years since I left Brooklyn. I was casually looking through Google Maps and was so happy to see this place is still up and rocking… this remains the best gym I’ve ever been to in my life and I’ve got many great memories of my time here! I’ve been to a ton of different gyms since moving back “home” to Australia but have never found a gem like Slope Fitness.I miss this gym so much! Great size, staff and atmosphere. Ahh the hours I spent here were well worth it. Join and you’ll see what I mean!So happy to hear it’s still going strong after all this time:)“

“I have been training here for several months and would strongly encourage you to give it a try if you are on the fence. The gym has a very welcoming atmosphere - no gymtimidation here. Nancy is a fantastic trainer and I cannot recommend her enough!!“

“For whoever is reading this, you must talk to Skifter at least once! If you've decided to make a difference in your body and your daily life, he is not only an experienced and professional trainer but he will also be your mentor and good friend of life.I still remember the first time I saw him, I had been suffering from disc herniation for about five years, and I also had hyperthyroidism and mild depression. In less than six months with him, he turned me into a healthy and confident man. It means that I have a beautiful body shape that I have never dreamed of and I'm no longer suffering from any physical pain.To utilize your effort, he would do everything for you so you can achieve your goal. For six months, he woke up at around 4 o'clock on the training days so he could match my personal schedule. I don't think any other personal trainer in the local area will do the way he does and care the way he cares.Trust him and follow the plan that he customizes for you! Skifter is not only a trainer of your body but also your mind, I highly encourage you to give yourself an opportunity to at least talk to him and customize a personal training plan, you will never regret it.Skifter, if you are reading this. Thank you and I will be back soon.-Richard“

“GG is an amazing trainer. I reached out to her for help with my lower back, hip and to improve my flexibility. I live in Atlanta Ga. I was in New York for the month of February. I had weekly sessions with GG. Within my first session the pain from my lower back had decreased significantly. Pain decreased from a 10 to 4. She is very knowledgeable and it shows. She will adjust your body ever so slightly and I could feel the difference.My sleep has improved and my energy level has increased. I came back to New York in March and continue with my sessions.GG is punctual and communication is clear.I have told all my friends about her. I wish she was in Atlanta however I will continue to have my sessions with GG when I am in New York.Lisa“

“Best trainer I've worked with - he tailors your workouts based on the physical activities that you do in your spare time, and he tries to promote holistic health unlike trainers that focus on just getting you sweating or lifting the highest number. I learned a lot not just about how to have good form when lifting, but also about stretching, overall habits (breathing/posture), and more. Also he's just a super friendly guy that grew up in the neighborhood; I'd consider him to be a friend as well as my trainer.“

“With in minutes of the first class of Yoga For Strong Bones, Jennifer showed me how to sit comfortably crosslegged with multiple props. I told her that I felt my investment was worth it with just that. She made me more aware of holding tension and releasing tension and breathing more effectively. She led us through 12 poses that are alleged, according to the NY Times, to prevent and even reverse osteoporosis. Jennifer brings her own special sauce by reading from a book of Rupi Kaur poems and creating a peaceful space that is calming to the nervous system.I am so appreciative for this amazing group of women that I share this experience with each week!“

“I have been training with Anna for over 6 months. She is the best. She is extremely knowledgable on workout and nutrition planning. I have done so many other forms of exercise and this by far has been the best. If you follow her program you will lose weight and get in shape faster than you expected. I highly recommend using her.“

“Faith is an amazing trainer and great person. During the initial consultation she takes your measurements. She trains, educates, and sets your macros to your specific needs. Every workout is different and pushes you. At the end of the day you send her your macros which I find much easier than following a meal plan. She teaches you a healthy lifestyle. Every few months you take measurements and pictures to see your progress. She is very responsive through text. She also practices what she preaches - she is inspiring!“

“Jake is an incredible trainer. He is not simply a workout buff who started training other workout buffs; he has a serious education in biomechanics and related fields and is a genuine expert who knows how to make sure you get a proper workout. He also is great at tailoring your workout to your particular goal, and adapts as he learns what does and doesn’t work for you. Very grateful to have found him.“

“He’s been really great and take an interest in you no matter what fitness level you’re at. I really like how he gives me tips and tricks to get the most out of every workout. I’ve been going for a little bit and am already seeing a big change in my body and adapting new daily habits.“

“I move and I miss this place. Great gym, great instructors. Tory’s classes on Monday evenings kick ass.“

“Ben and Priority Fitness have changed my fitness life! I have been a runner for twenty years, but strength training with Ben the past two years has taken my running power to a whole new level. I feel strong, fast, and confident in a way I never have before. Ben is so knowledgeable about all things fitness, and comes up with unique strength routines tailored for the individual. He is also so patient and supportive and works with you to meet your goals. The studio is a great space, and has everything you need for training. I can't recommend Priority Fitness enough!“

“I’ve been training with Mo a little over a year and have really seen results in weight loss and gaining strength. Mo’s a great motivator without being harsh or mean. She’s also very intuitive when it comes to the body (and mind) and notices small details during my workouts and then will adjust the training based on her insights. I’m grateful with my time with Mo and look forward to my weekly workouts with her.Plus her dog is really the cutest and I’m not much of a dog lover. (She gives you the option not have the dog there btw but I wouldn’t recommend that)“

“Highly recommend. The workout sessions here are always efficient and effective. The instructors are very knowledgable and encouraging. A great atmosphere to workout in“

“Work out. It's important for your health. Wealth is health. Yoga is very good for the body Stretching all you muscles Running is excellent cardo“

“Honestly the best Pilates studio I’ve been to in more than 20 years of attending classes on and off. So many Pilates classes I’ve attended over the years have felt like light exercise at best, but The Fit In’s are a serious workout that leave your muscles feeling it afterwards (and have even left me sweating one or twice).“

“72nd is the best Harbor Fitness location, by far!!! Clean, spacious, with constant maintenance of machines/ equipment. Staff are always friendly and welcoming. I hope they open new locations :)“

“Len is great! the studio is really nice and clean and the work outs really always different, super efficient, and well tailored to what you want!“

“Absolutely addicted. The staff is super nice and I’ve only been going two classes max for a few weeks and my abs are already starting to come back. Only thing I don’t love is if you book through class pass you are put on the very end. Not an amazing spot for a beginner. None the less I’m about to buy a membership.“

“Gym has good equipment & is very clean. Members are friendly. Staff is professional & friendly. Never too crowded mornings or afternoons.“

“I truly miss CKO — especially the incredible energy and motivation from Cobe! It was more than just a high-intensity workout — it was an experience that empowered both body and mind. Each class left me feeling stronger, more confident, and ready to take on anything. From learning real self-defense techniques to sweating it out to great music, CKO was a total mind-body boost.

Please bring a CKO location to Howard Beach — we need it here! The community would benefit so much from the energy, empowerment, and strength that CKO brings. There’s nothing else like it!“
