Women's Fitness of Boston

RE: 30 days for $30 special. Have attended 3 weeks of Zumba and Strong classes. Highly recommend both! The music is great and the instructors are top notch and super friendly. Docked one Star due to the age of the facility and lighting. While not brand new, management clearly works hard to keep the space clean and organized. Impressed with the experience and looking forward to attending more classes! More...

My Favourite Gym..:)

I LOVE being a part of the WFOB Family (which truly feels like a family). It's the most supportive, encouraging, and motivating place I've ever worked out. All the trainers are great-- they teach fun high energy classes and you can tell they really just want you to have a fun and effective workout. Nothing intimidating here; it's a blast to workout at WFOB. More...

This place is GREAT! I visited it last week to check t out, the front desk was great. They offer great classes (zumba, weight lifting, cardio circuit) and the price is so affordable (50$ +half of it as an initiating fee total 84$ ) Plus that they have a one week trial which I thought is a great thing to try before commiting. I love this gym, the trainers are nice and the push you to the core! More...

So happy I found this place! The times that I usually go the gym doesn't have a lot of people which is nice to go through your workout and not have to wait for a machine. Great staff. Clean gym.

Kendra's Zumba class on Friday is outstanding!! So much fun! Mostly salsa, reggeton, but also has a few other styles to mix it up. She even choreographs her own songs. Kendra is talented and knows how to make the class have a good time. All types of people were in the class so you will fit right in. I recommend her class for ages 10 to 80.The facility gets 4 stars. It is a standard gym, not luxury, which keeps the prices down. Everything is in good condition but the showers could use improvement. The stall fills with water so you might want to turn off the water often to allow for drainage. White bath towels can be rented. Blow dryers are available in the large locker room. Bring you own shampoo and hair brush.As for workout equipment, they have a wide variety and it is in slightly used condition. Many unique systems are offered such as TRX.Thanks for a great workout WFoB. More...

My first time going to a women's gym: so great! The place is a no-frills, relaxed gym with PLENTY of treadmills, ellipticals, and weight equipment. I also really like that keys on wristbands are provided for day use lockers so you don't have to bring a combo lock. The bathrooms are clean, too. Chill place to workout! More...

I love WFOB! It's well located, fairly priced, always clean and welcoming. This is the first gym where I've felt like I'm a part of a community, not a gross downtown gym. I'm never going back to Planet Fitness now that I know what great training, personality, warmth and encouragement I can get from WFOB! The owner, Julie, works so hard to make sure that everyone gets a great experience. This is a truly wonderful small business! More...

I tried out a couple classes with my class pass. I really love the Tabata class with Quincy. It's such a good work out! An intense 30 minute work out that will leave you feeling the good kind of sore the next morning. It was challenging but fun. Quincy is super helpful and she keeps the motivation high for her class. She takes the time to make sure everyone is doing the workouts in correct form. She's actually the reason why I'm writing this review. Although I've only taken her a class a couple times, she deserves recognition! I also took a Zumba with Sarah. I didn't like this class as much, unfortunately. I was excited to try it because I love incorporating dance into a workout. She knew what she was doing and looked great doing it but there was little to no instruction. She didn't really teach, she just did her thing and everyone was to follow. Sarah is filled with energy and I really loved her attitude but the lack of guidance overshadowed it for me. More...

I started off using a Groupon here for personal training with Quincy and stayed on for another 6 months because she was so wonderful and made our weekly sessions something I truly looked forward to. I hadn't worked out in months when I first began but Quincy taught me new, dynamic, workouts that could be tailored to my ability and are things that I can do at home/at any gym. I cannot say enough good things about my experience here, because it not only pushed me to get strong and healthy but also taught me workouts that I can carry on to do where ever I go. If I weren't moving to another state I would continue on here, would highly recommend to anyone who wants to get into shape, get back into fitness or just push themselves to achieve their fitness goals !

I have been a member of WFOB for two years now. It's a great atmosphere. The members are friendly and the vibe is non judgmental. Julie is a very smart business person as well as a great motivator.

Thanks to all of you for making this a great little gym to work out in. More...

WFOB is the only reason I exercise! They have an amazing team of instructors (I typically take classes with Julie, Dawn, Debbie, Quincy, and Angela) who actually make working out fun - I am most certainly the type of person that needs to be tricked into exercising so I take the group classes. My favorites are pilloxing and tabata. The location is convenient and the prices are so reasonable (with lots of employer discounts). The gym itself has everything you might need - group classes, fitness equipment, showers, lockers, etc.Lastly, the main reason this gym has to be the best in Boston is its members. All the women who go to this gym are so friendly and encouraging. It's such a supportive environment that I always feel comfortable when I'm there. If you are a woman who works downtown, you should definitely pay WFOB a visit and take advantage of the free trial! More...

Tried Women's Fitness of Boston on a Friday around lunch time. Signed up for the Tabata class using the Yoga & Fitness Pass my friend had bought me for Christmas on Groupon. The pass lets you try 30 classes at participating gyms in the area. So Women's Fitness was my first try!The location was convenient - heart of downtown Boston off the red line (Downtown Crossing stop). The facility is in the basement of a building but very clean and modern. The staff was very friendly and helpful - showing me how to use a locker and where all the equipment was. The Tabata class itself was fantastic - I had never done it before but it was TOUGH. A great 45 minute, high intensity cardio and weight-training workout. Angela, the instructor, was very encouraging and motivating. Can't wait to come back and try another class (or maybe another awesome Tabata class again!). More...

It makes me sad writing this review because I miss this place so much. The reason why I am no longer a member here is because I have relocated. This gym is by far the best gym I have been to and to this day, nothing beats it. You will never feel uncomfortable or intimidated. All the instructors are great - each person have their own style when it comes to training. I will sum up a few instructors I know and how their styles are:Julie (Piloxing) - She is very gentle. Not your BOOTCAMP kind of instructor but a very supportive one. Ari (BodyShred) - BOOTCAMP instructor. She screams at you and yes, she can be loud which makes her awesome. I also taken her circuit training classes on Fridays (these are paid classes) so worth it. Theres not a lot of people that show up to this class - it makes it even more personal. Kate (Strength in Motion/Pilates) - Her classes are more calm in my opinion. its not a difficult class to take but I'll take it on easy days. You have to listen to her sometimes - she is hilarious and she doesn't even know it. Dawn (spin/other classes etc) - energetic and hilarious instructor. I think her classes are most fun just because of her personality. The front desk ladies are nice and helpful -  I always had small talks with Robin and Quincy before leaving the gym. If you have questions, just ask. Don't be shy at this gym. Everyone is open, direct and honest. I would love to talk more about this gym and how great it is - you just have to go see it for yourself.

Women's Fitness of Boston is conveniently located, fairly priced and a delight to be a member of. The owner, Julie, works so hard to make sure that her clients enjoy the gym. She is also a great personal trainer, and is willing to work closely with clients to push them to their potential. She's just that right balance of energetic and serious, making sure that her clients get what they need. As for the gym itself, it offers a wide range of classes and also has a decent amount of equipment for being a small(er) gym (this isn't your Planet Fitness...but that's a good thing! It's clean and well maintained!). I've been a member for almost two years and I've never had to wait to use a machine. More...

I joined WFOB two years ago after my gym closed down without any notice. I wasn't used to working out at an all woman's gym but I have to tell you this place is great. I look forward to going everyday. It's a no judgment zone. Everyone is there for the same reason. The woman all work hard and are very supportive of one another. The classes are diverse enough to find something you can do. And if you can't there are free weights and machines to do your own thing. Julie is always switching things up to make it interesting. She always has new ideas and is a very wise business person. More...

I started taking classes at WFOB last winter and I was instantly hooked!  I loved the Zumba class with Dianna. When I felt ready, I started taking more classes like Piloxing and Body Shred with Julie and LOVED them. By the spring I found myself going their five days a week and saw major results. I've always had trouble committing to a gym. At WFOB I felt comfortable and motivated to come to the gym!  The instructors are friendly, knowledgeable and motivating. When I can't make it to a class I love to use the machines and weight room.I never have to wait for a machine or weights. Most members work in the city and go before or after work. I work nights but the class schedule and gym hours work perfectly for me .WFOB is a hidden gem! I'm so happy I found it!! More...

Women's Fitness is a funky gym in a basement in Downtown Crossing. There's a spinning room, a weights room, and a cardio room that also doubles as a studio for classes, so if you're on a treadmill there might be a class happening in front of you. I took Strength in Motion with Kate and thought it was a really fun class. I burned about 350 calories in the 45 minute class. They have lockers with keys, and showers, but you have to bring your own towel and toiletries if you don't have towel service. More...

WFOB is really more than just a place to work out; it's a community. The hands-on nature of ownership and the personal connections instructors and employees forge with the members is truly unparalleled to any other gym I have been a member of. On top of well maintained cardio and strength equipment, Women's Fitness offers a variety of group exercise classes (try Zumba and Tabata!) at various times throughout the day to complement anyone's schedule. Aside from the great workout facilities, the locker room is VERY well maintained, inviting, and full of amenities. Complimentary lockers (WITH lock and key), iron, scales, hair dryers, lotions, and an ever-chaning supply of free samples make this a locker room you don't feel liek you have to throw your flip-flops on and rush out of as fast as possible.Add personal training options and a tanning bed to the list of features of this gym, and you really can't say much more wonderful things about it.

I moved here from Ohio in May and originally joined a gym somewhat close to where I live in Dorchester. Especially with the cold winter I did not find myself using it as much as I should. I work right in Downtown Crossing and had received a personal training package from WFOB from Groupon for a gift. I went to go check out the place and immediately I knew it was where I should have gotten a membership originally. The owner set up a corporate account for my place of work, was extremely friendly and helpful. The place is clean, accommodating and has a really good variety of classes. It is also like 3 feet away from where I work so it's a lot harder to make excuses not to go now. I also really like how you aren't locked into real big contracts. It's definitely transparent and clear. I recommended it to all of my coworkers. More...
