★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1GREAT neighborhood gym. Have been a member here since it opened, and the different classes and intensity workouts thoughtfully cater to people at different phases of their fitness journey - and you learn a ton and workout smaller muscle groups and balance stabilization that you likely wouldn't on your own. Small enough to get pretty personalized feedback and attention, big enough to feed off others energy and build community.
August 24 · Erfaan MojganiSince my first class at Progress, my fitness journey has reached new heights. The classes are intentional and challenging, and I’ve seen noticeable improvements in both my physical strength and overall endurance. The trainers are not only incredibly knowledgeable, but they also have a gift for making you feel seen and supported. There’s no ego here—just encouragement, connection, and a shared commitment to growth.
August 04 · alexandra sloaneAfter my son's birth, I was looking for a new gym to challenge me and offer much-needed postpartum alone time. Progress delivered it all: modifiable workout programming at the right times of the day with many friendly faces. Katie and Matt have created a really special space to get stronger and stay fit. I highly recommend Progress for all ability levels, and I encourage new parents, in particular, to try it out!
July 23 · Mariaelena DiBenignoOne of the best gyms in Charlottesville. The trainers are hard yet can accommodate any injury or ability level. The environment is supportive, not competitive. Love it.
August 25 · Kiri GardnerProgress Studio has been a game-changer for my fitness journey. I switched from a larger gym, and I've never been more excited to workout. The trainers are excellent at providing modifications, making workouts accessible for everyone. I always leave encouraged and after two months, I'm already feeling stronger and more confident. I highly recommend Progress Studio!
