Trainers near Elkins Park

“I joined Spark and Vitality one month ago, and it has been a world changer. Michelle and Jen are perfectly in tune with my specific fitness needs and crafted a program to fit. I am so grateful!“

“I’m so happy to be part of the G-strength community! It was exactly what I was looking for when I decided to join. I have always been active, but was feeling stagnant in my workouts. I wanted to focus on increasing weights, working on my form, and having some guidance too. Jared and Zach are both amazing coaches - it’s like having personal trainers! They always greet you when you walk in, the hour session is a maximum of 7 people (so never feels crowded), and they are there to assist you when you want it. I highly recommend G-strength to anyone looking to improve their strength and want a welcoming and encouraging space to do so!“

“Such a solid workout spot. The coaches are friendly and helpful and the workouts are challenging but manageable. It’s just a great place to show up, get a good workout in, and feel good after.“

“Daniel and Joey are the best!
I truly recommend it to anyone who needs a close assistance workout program!“

“I've been training at T&N for a little over a year and it's been legitimately life changing. I spent a long time looking for a trainer who would concentrate on helping me get stronger and more mobile.
I've been working out with Casey, who has been pushing me to pick up weights and do exercises I never thought I'd be able to. I'm stronger and healthier than I've ever been and I think that's 100% because Casey has created an incredible training program for me.“

“My 11yr old has really enjoyed going to Takeover Sports. Ryan and the other trainers really care and are very knowledgeable. The environment is welcoming and positive. My son looks forward to attending his sessions, has learned a lot, and is feeling more confident.“

“This is perfect for people who aren’t really “gym people,” like me. Whenever I go to a regular gym, I end up spending an hour and a half just waiting for machines or trying to figure out what to do. With time being so valuable, I really appreciate a structured 45-minute workout that actually lets you focus on working your muscles without the guesswork.

The classes are great because someone is guiding you through the workout, making sure your form is correct and helping modify exercises if needed. It makes the whole experience much less intimidating and a lot more effective.

I also really appreciate the customer service. Everyone has been incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful. My absolute favorite coach is Meg, but honestly the entire team has been wonderful.

Highly recommend if you want an efficient workout with a supportive environment.“

“I’ve been training at Maleek Jackson Boxing and Fitness for almost a year now, and I honestly can’t say enough good things about this place. The coaches here are truly knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely invested in your growth, no matter your skill level. Whether you’re brand new to boxing or have years of experience, they make you feel welcomed, comfortable, and supported from day one.

Beyond the coaching, the community here is something special. Everyone pushes each other, respects one another, and wants to see each other improve. I’ve learned so much not just about boxing, but about discipline, confidence, and showing up for myself consistently.

This gym feels like more than just a place to train, it feels like home. If you’re looking for a boxing gym with elite coaching, a positive environment, and a real sense of community, this is the spot. Highly recommend.“

“I'm 33, getting older and worried about long term health, and was honestly a couch potato before I started here. I also have a bad shoulder, so I was nervous about getting into training at all. I figured I'd either tweak something or end up in over my head.

Matt Falkenberg has been my trainer and he's been awesome. He worked around the shoulder from the start, didn't push me into anything I couldn't handle, and built me up at a pace that actually made sense. I wanted to get in shape for camping and biking trips, and I'm finally there. Longer rides, full days outside, and I'm not wrecked the next morning.

The location is also a big reason it's stuck. Easy from South Philly, and easy from Center City after work too, which makes it way harder to come up with an excuse to skip.

If you're in Philly and thinking about it, especially if you're working around an injury or just trying to get off the couch, go see Matt at The Summit!!“

“I’ve been weightlifting heavy for about 4 years and have taken many Pilates classes, but this class truly humbled me in the best way. Both instructors, Karen and Shani, welcomed me with open arms, and Karen is an amazing instructor. She’s incredibly supportive and offers great encouragement throughout class. I’ll definitely be coming back to this studio!“

“Easily one of the best massages I’ve ever had! Would highly highly recommend if you have any pain at all!“

“Passport visit. Great coaches, active and engaging with each participant, correcting form and cheering for completion.“

“As always feeling like an outsider this place made me feel welcome! I try other F45 locations this is the best in the area!“

“I can’t wait for all the new equipment especially the booty builder training circuit!! 🔥🔥“

“I love the set up at orange theory. I appreciate their ethos to working out and the energy in the building. I like the orange lighting as well. Not a current member but will most def visit again. Their membership is quite expensive.“

“This gym is outstanding. It’s consistently clean, well organized, and clearly well
managed. The staff are extremely professional, welcoming, and always ready to help every visit you’re greeted with respect and positive energy. The equipment is kept up to date, the weights are usually well organized, and the overall environment is neat and motivating. While a few members may occasionally leave equipment out of place, the staff does a great job maintaining order and cleanliness. Overall, this is a top-tier gym and a great place to train. Highly recommended.“

“Nicole is a rockstar, had so much fun and her directions were so clear! Cannot wait to come back“

“Awesome gym environment here! The coaches are so friendly and helpful, and the classes always kick my butt! I’ve hit multiple all time gym PRs since being a member“

“I always have a good workout. It doesn't matter how crowded the parking lot is, there is never a hindrance in completing my routine.“

“Excellent is so many ways. Always clean, the staff take pride in working their. Friendly to all ages from infants to seniors. Great offering of group work outs and the outdoor space is unmatched locally.“

“I use to workout at Planet Fitness . I liked that it was open 24hr. All most every Planet Fitness in my area , is now 5am to 11pm . The one that hasn't changed their hours, isn't truly 24hrs . I did a search for a 24r gym near me and I found AF . The owner is super nice and answered all my questions . I joined 3 days later. I had my first workout on a Sunday at 2:30 am . The gym has everything . Free weights, machines , cardio ,kettlebells , power racks , a deadlift platform and a jungle gym . What really made a good workout even better . An ex PF member was working out at the same time . We use to have to wait in the parking lot on Mondays ,until PF opened their doors. I wish I had joined sooner .“

“Great gym area clean friendly staff on suggestion I would like them to have a tai chi class or two if possible.“

“I’ve been training at Control Lab for 2.5 years. I started training with Victor when my second child was a little over 6 months old!
I appreciated that Victor understood and took into account all of my fitness and strength goals! He formulates training sessions with all of those goals in mind, pushing me harder week after week! He’s extremely knowledgeable, keeps the sessions motivating, fun and challenging. Hands down the best trainer I’ve ever worked with.
But more importantly, Control Lab is a space for community and inclusivity. I love chatting with all of the trainers and clients who share the space during my sessions! It’s a little family!
If you’re looking for knowledgeable, quality personal training to reach your health and wellness goals, look no further!“

“Brian was so helpful and explained everything about a body scan to me and didn’t make me feel weird or uncomfortable. Will be coming back again !“

“To be honest, the only employee that truly stands out to me because of how welcoming, kind, friendly and hard-working she is is Tracy. Watching how good she cleans, makes me feel like this is a well kept environment. She is such a pleasure to see every morning. I do recommend this location . I wish all of the staff gave this same impression, it would really glow up the place

Edit: new staff is super friendly and welcoming“

“I have been taking Katie’s Pilates & Barre classes for two years and she is an amazing instructor! She is very knowledgeable and always encouraging us to do what we can! PSC/NYSC is lucky to have her as an instructor!“
