I like the variety, music, and coaches. I gave it a nine instead of ten because I miss the "Inferno" or workouts that switch a lot (I can't remember the name of the Saturday morning class that switched every few minutes).
I recommend Orange Theory to friends all of the time. It's great, I just walk in, turn my brain off and follow along. It is the easiest way to get the best out 1 hour at the gym.
The only negative thing I have to say about Orange Theory, is that the coaching is not consistently good. For example, Holly in North Vancouver doesn't understand how to use the sound system. She blasts the music way too loud and doesn't turn it down to speak and give direction, so the class is constantly confused and memebers are often asking eachother what to do next. I told her once that we couldn't hear her when she speaks, and in response, she turned the music down for a few minutes and then kept gradually cranking it even louder than before, to the point that I could hear the speakers cracking. I left the class with a headache and ringing ears.
I hate to complain, I love the North Van studio, but I won't go to her classes anymore. The only reason I am bothering to write this feedback, is because I like this studio so much, and if it were my business, I would want to know.
I really like all of the other coaches and reception staff at the gym. Derrick, Bob, Yasi, Maya, Pega and Kyle often make my day. These are all top notch people! Thank you to them for everything they do. They keep me coming back!
I highly recommend it! I can’t believe that I am already addicted to the workout. Bob is amazing. Great atmosphere, great coaches and the best workout ever.
I like that it’s all designed for you! No thinking required past getting there. I like the 3G classes they feel manageable and each part isn’t too long.
I love attending Orange Theory! The workouts offer great variety, the music is fantastic, and the instructors excel at ensuring everyone performs weight exercises safely and effectively
Coaches are personable and make it fun. I love getting in and out of class in one hour and staff direct our movements and guide us through. I love not being charged for two visits cancelled late, one because car broke down en route to class and two, my mom took a turn for the worse. Very thoughtful and understanding.
The coaches are always motivated, the workouts change frequently and you arent competing against others at the class as its based upon your own cardio fitness levels.
