Uplift was an accidental find for me that has changed the way I workout in NYC! As a Cali transplant, I missed the intimacy of small groups and of the type of classes that I had taken out there. I felt like so many classes and other studios just weren t right for me. But this is my new favorite place, not just to work out but to hang out for a half hour before my class to have a complementary cup of coffee, freshen up in the amenity stocked locker room and get into the zone before a fast paced 45 minute class.

I have now taking five classes here, with all different instructors, and they are all super fun and different every time. Yes they are extremely challenging! But it s also possible to modify. I have had injuries in other classes at other studios, but feeling like I m in a positive and supportive environment here, and being given alternatives to exercises has kept me healthy and free of pain! OK well a little muscular pain from kicking butt, but nothing to send me to the chiropractor! :)

They also do special classes mid day at community rates. Another thing I appreciate about Uplift is they have relationships that extend beyond just fitness, with companies that are concerned about nutrition and overall wellness. I appreciate the thoughtfulness and holistic approach!

This is not the cheapest place to work out, but it is for me, best.
