Only on the Upper West Side
Two parks at your door. Use them.
With Central Park on one side and Riverside Park on the other, UWS clients get an option most of Manhattan doesn’t: take the session outside. Your trainer can program park workouts in season, then move everything indoors when the weather turns, same trainer, same plan.
Prewar classic six, new Riverside tower, or a doorman building with a serious gym, we train in all of them, and certificates of insurance for your building are no problem.

Common questions
UWS training, answered
Which areas do you cover on the Upper West Side?
The full Upper West Side: Lincoln Square up through Manhattan Valley, Central Park West to Riverside Boulevard. We serve all of Manhattan, so if you’re at the edges, just ask.
Do I need equipment or a home gym?
No. Your trainer brings what the session needs. If your building has a fitness room, we’ll use it; if you have a few feet of floor space at home, that’s enough.
Can we train in Central Park or Riverside Park?
Yes, outdoor park sessions are a UWS favorite in season. Your trainer programs them into your plan and moves everything indoors when the weather turns.
Do you train kids and families?
Yes. Age-appropriate kids’ and teen fitness, couples sessions, and multi-member household arrangements, one trusted trainer for the whole family.
What does it cost?
Most clients start with a short Starter Package, then move to a session pack. See current rates on our pricing page.
How fast can I start?
Usually within a few days. Fill out the questionnaire, we’ll match your trainer, and your first session gets scheduled around your calendar.
