Pvolve NYC — Local services in New York

On a recent girls trip to New York from Toronto, me a three friends decided to book our first Pvolve class. And I can tell you... it DID NOT disappoint. This coming from someone who has done a number of live fitness classes (and training styles) around North America.

After frustrations with trying to book a live Peloton class, we decided to try out Pvolve after seeing it on Jennifer Aniston's Instagram. We thought, if it is good enough for Ms. Aniston, it's good enough for us!

From the moment we reached out to the Soho location, the very accommodating and helpful Rachel was the cheerful voice on the other line. Rachel was able to make the exception to book our group in a class understanding our travels all the way from Canada, and the frustration we already had. The team was also very responsive to emails on other questions we had.

Walking in to the studio, everything was clean and organized and the girls at the front desk were very inviting. Jumping to the class itself, Julie Ann was one of the best trainers I have ever had! She was fully of energy and very attentive, patiently walking us through our very first class and ensuring we got the most out of our workout.

Having limited knowledge of Pvolve, and with it not being available in Toronto, the programming itself was amazing and definitely something to consider for people of all ages who are looking for an unique but effective workout that is kind to your body.

Thanks Pvolve NYC team for the...

Pvolve NYC is five stars on so much! In addition to having energetic, talented instructors who are uniformly great on cueing, challenging, varied, and safe workouts, a gorgeous studio that is clean and smells lovely, really welcoming team members who make it easy for new joiners to begin, they are inclusivity and accessibility champions!

I am deaf/hard of hearing and use a bluetooth microphone to hear in class environments. Each instructor I've asked to wear it has enthusiastically agreed and checked in with me to make sure I can hear/it's working ok. Each one remembers the next time I take a class with them making me feel welcome and saving me the time of re-explaining/re-asking every time.

Related but separate, in all the classes I've taken, the instructors offer encouraging modifications (as well as ways to advance the offering), always emphasizing safety. Modifications are framed as options, not 'if you can't do x, then do this', setting a standard that our abilities on any given day exists on a continuum and Pvolve is there to help you work to your fullest wherever you are that day/time of your life. So refreshing!

Cannot recommend Pvolve enough! It's part of my pilates reformer, barre, peloton, yoga rotation and is the perfect compliment to them all while staying interesting (each class is a totally different work-out with different equipment used - no getting bored). I've gotten much stronger with...

I'm suffering a long term injury in my foot which I had surgery for, but it's never healed. I am also hyper mobile so I'm always injuring myself. However, before my surgery I loved going to fitness classes. I've been in so much pain that for over 2 years I have not been able to do a single class of anything. This November I started going to the NYC studio (and doing streaming as well) and I am beyond thrilled. I feel very welcomed even when I just cannot do all the moves. I am given modifications when I cannot lift my heel up for certain moves, and I can usually snag a mat in the back so I can hold on the barre on the back wall when I need to balance on my bad foot. Also if I'm having a bad day and I decide not to use a piece of equipment I never feel like the instructors are judging me. My body has not felt this good since before the surgery. One last note- I signed up for a class and then could not attend because a family member was rushed to the hospital. I explained later that day what had happened and if they would mind not charing me as a one time courtesy since I was so stressed I didn't think about canceling, only going to the hospital. They were so kind in the return email. So refreshing after other gym "customer service" experiences! I think I'll be coming here for a...
