PE Fitness Studio

Dec 2019

I am not a gym rat. I am not a fitness junkie. But I like a decadent meal and a few cocktails and maybe we can just all agree that I appreciate butter and laminated pastries and caramel sauce and Providence's range of abundant sweet treats (I'm looking at you Knead Doughnuts. And you, Aleppo Sweets!). My first few months at PE Fitness were a bit reluctant - my partner had gifted me with weekly personal training sessions for Christmas and I did not take kindly to the gift. Laurel, one of the two owners and trainers at the gym was gentle with me, allowing me to find my own pace and rhythms, but also challenged me to push myself just a little bit harder with each session. Fast forward five years and I'm happy to say that this place has made me a better and more balanced human! I've become a huge fan of the small-group classes. Something about this place draws really wonderful and like-minded folk together. Motivational without being cheesy, challenging without being intimidating, and immediately welcoming (without feeling cult-y), I cannot imagine another gym quite like this. Every few years I fall off for a couple of months, and I usually have an awful time getting back to it, but once I do, I feel a thousand times better - not to mention how much I appreciate the familiar faces and both Lisa and Laurel's guidance!

Both trainers are always challenging you to do your best. The environment is amazing and motivating. If you're looking for a place to help you make a change to your "I can't" mindset, THIS is it! <3

Such an awesome environment to be challenged and motivated! Laurel and Lisa are the best! If you're looking for an affordable place to take great bootcamp classes or to train with a personal trainer, this is the place!
