    Love this gym! I found it by Google search before moving to Boston and came in to check it out right away. Kristina was very welcoming and explained how the classes worked and showed me the “Deep Blue”. I have been taking classes for a couple weeks now and have already seen great improvement in my rowing thanks to the coaching (Emily is particularly awesome at this!!) The format is fun and challenging as well as adaptable to every level. Finding Row Republic has made me feel at home in Boston right away!

    Such a killer workout and so much fun! I've gone to a handful of classes with different instructors and they've all been fantastic. Highly recommend trying a class here

    Went to my first class this morning and immediately had to write a review. This is THE place to go for a workout class. I can not recommend it enough. The front desk was so kind and helpful as it was my first time, facilities are clean and the class itself was the best group fitness class I have ever taken. The instructor was Kristina, she was AMAZING, provided plenty of modifications, guidance and words of encouragement. Great full body workout (I did full body but the classes vary everyday), great music, great energy. Would recommend for everyone from marathon runners to people who want to get into fitness. Will definitely be back!

    I have been coming to RR for a few months and absolutely love the workouts and all the trainers. As soon as you walk in, you feel motivated and ready to give it your all. The trainers guide you through the entire 45/60 minutes and boost your confidence to finish strong. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a community type HIIT workout. First class is free!

    Amazing staff and trainers. Classes are always different so the unexpected makes the class fly by while also avoiding workout plateaus. Very easy to push yourself or scale back if you need a great workout but need to ease up at times. Trainers are supportive and encouraging during class. Looking for a workout you'll finally stick to, definitely go to row republic.

    Each class is a bit different and each class fulfills my health fitness needs. The studio staff is so helpful and the instructors are top notch. I was so happy they made it through the pandemic and are now back!

    Great staff! Love the trainers and the music - very welcoming environment. Showers, everything is clean! Plenty of toiletries

    Row Republic helped me get through my running injuries and back into races with their high intensity but low impact workouts. I’m so grateful for the guidance of their knowledgable trainers and the supportive community that they’ve built. Plus their playlists are always fantastic!

    Row Republic may be Boston’s best group fitness class! The instructors are phenomenal, the staff welcoming, the facilities clean (love the showers!), and the class itself is a great workout! My only complaint is that I with they offered more sixty minute classes!

    I have been a member of the Row Republic since December and am all around impressed with how welcoming the staff are to it's members. Prior to December I had been working out completely from home and had been curious about whether joining a gym was a good idea. What I found in Row Republic was a community of motivated individuals who never fail to support and motivate one another. The instructor's all bring their own unique personality and create a workout experience that challenges your individual growth. Each class might have its own spin but the instructors never fail to congratulate community members on their personal milestones and achievements. After each class, the instructors and staff take the time to listen to members feedback about the workouts, provide encouragement and promote friendly competition. I'm grateful for the environment the team at Row Republic has created for its community. Catyn, Nafisha, Abby, Grace, Sarah and the rest of instructors/ front desk staff are doing a wonderful job.

    I was looking for a gym close to my office and after walking by a few times I finally decided to give it a try and I am so happy I did. This is the fun, tough class I have been looking for, I have enjoyed all the instructors and classes and I am trying to find more time in my schedule to attend even more.

    Love it here. Classes are great and the instructors are personable. It kinda has a different vibe than most of the group workout classes I’ve attended that’s hard to explain…it’s supportive and motivating without being over the top. It’s refreshing to be able to turn my mind off and get an extremely intense and thoughtful workout in. Unlike other classes I leave feeling stronger than when I enter, rather than feeling beat down.

    I signed up for the Core Sculpt 50 class. The class is great for building core strength, learning right techniques for rowing, and also has a short section for HIIT type exercises. The staff and trainers are very friendly, the place is well kept and clean.

    I recently had the pleasure of taking my first class with Liz, it was an absolute blast! The class was both challenging and motivating, pushing me to give my best. Afterward, I felt amazing! Highly recommended!

    Let's just say, I commute about an hour to workout here. THAT'S how much I enjoy Row Republic! The staff, coaches and community make me feel like I can accomplish anything. Thanks for being the best start to my crazy days!

  • 5/5 Hannah L. 2 years ago on Google
    I am very easily intimidated by new fitness studios, but when my friend Kristen told me about RR I was excited. When I got there the staff was SO incredibly professional and the instructor took time before class to make me feel at ease and break down the row machine to me as I’ve never been on one before. The class itself was the first one where I’ve never felt uncomfortable by the set up, the lighting is moody, the music is bumping and it’s like you’re in your own little club. I love that the workouts are non repetitive and you walk out of class in shock that the 50mins flew by as fast as they do. I love Catyn and Kristina and cannot wait to try the other instructors! The studio itself is always immaculate, the facility is always clean, fully stocked and not a thing out of place! Can’t rave about this place enough!

    Row Republic has an incredibly professional and friendly team of staff and instructors with a selection varied classes and time slots available. They have gone above and beyond maintaining a safe studio space during the pandemic.

    Row Republic is a great facility with incredibly professional staff, and completely dedicated to maintaining a safe and healthy environment.

  • 5/5 Malina A. 1 year ago on Google
    Hands down the best low impact strength training workout in Boston! Been a member since the beginning (3 years ago) and will continue to recommend all my friends and family come here to get in shape or just to feel good😊

  • 5/5 Lexy D. 1 year ago on Google
    Before I went to my first class at Row Republic, it had been 2 years since I went to a gym. I felt instantly so comfortable and at home here! The workout is challenging but the instructors keep it fun and entertaining. The staff is so incredibly kind, I can’t reccomend this place enough!!

  • 5/5 Meaghan C. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is a serious step up from other niche specialty gyms. The staff, workouts, and amenities are consistently great, whenever I come in. Each class instructor has their own flavor with a great handle on explaining the workouts, including providing modifications for the free weight “floor” workouts, focusing on good form over reps. The class size capacity is comfortable for transitioning between stations and never underwhelming in attendance. While the classes may focus on upper body, or lower body or whole body, the format of the classes are varied week to week so I’m never anticipating that one class or instructor is harder than the other, which overall helps with planning workouts for the week. A lot of thought has been put into the setup and amenities. Staff provide a cooling lavender face towel after the workout--instant relief and a treat for working hard and showing up! Additionally, I feel confident that if I forget toiletries, there are plenty of products available to use so I can be in the office or see friends afterwards and look polished. The front desk staff are professional and kind; the experience is akin to checking in with one’s favorite local coffee barista, if you will. And finally, as a former high school and college rower, Row Republic meets the fitness needs I’m looking for without the higher cost and time investment needed to join a rowing club in Boston.

    I love Row Republic! The workouts are fun, intense, and low-impact. The instructors are extremely motivating and helpful. They have all the amenities you need to get about our busy day- water, towels, shower, hair dryers, etc.

  • 5/5 Erin K. 2 years ago on Google
    Just Finished my first week! Loved the welcoming community and encouraging energy. The coaches are amazing!

  • 5/5 Joan L. 4 years ago on Google
    Easily the best fitness studio I’ve been to in Boston. The studio has a great vibe, clean, and outfitted with great amenities. The staff are friendly, and welcoming. The classes are diverse and challenging between the row machine and floor workout. As long distance runner and non rower I’ve found this to be the perfect cross training workout. The teachers are great giving a quick intro before the class begins to catch up newbies. Highly recommend!!

  • 5/5 Nora S. 2 years ago on Google
    I love it here! Feels like a community and I am always greeted by name and with a smile. Classes are challenging, fun, and I always leave feeling strong. So glad I found you, Row Republic!

  • 5/5 Sarah S. 2 years ago on Google
    We were only in Boston for a few days and wanted a good workout class. We were so glad we tried Row Republic! The teachers were incredibly helpful and friendly - they made us feel so welcome. The classes are hard and work a variety of muscles. We loved it! We will definitely be back next time we are in Boston.

    Row Republic has been one of the most fun, energetic, and accepting fitness communities I’ve ever been apart of. Every single person in the studio is incredibly friendly and makes you feel so welcome, and all of the coaches do the exact same! They are always there to encourage you in class and for you to ask questions whenever you need. It’s been such a blast being a member here and I look forward to every class with the excitement like it’s my first one all over again! If you’re thinking about trying out Row Republic, just do it! You won’t regret it.

    This gym provides a first-class experience through and through. The instructors, workouts and amenities make the before, during and after classes an enjoyable and worthwhile experience. Classes are both detailed and challenging, however, the class and environment promotes completing the workout in a way that best suits you. Instructors are incredibly amiable and the personal touch they provide is second to none. If you decide to head to Row Republic - you won’t regret it!

    Living in a city like Boston it has been a STRUGGLE to find a gym that welcomes you and helps motivate you. Upon first arriving to Row Republic the front desk staff and Steven made me feel like family. I actually look forward to coming here because the energy is always so high and the staff is beyond welcoming. I have only gone to instructors Steven and Emily and all I can say is they are both INCREDIBLE. This is a great option if you're looking to find joy in your workouts and overall have a great time. Cannot rave enough about Row Republic!

    I never write public reviews, but this experience deserves it. I had my first class today and it completely exceeded all expectations. First and foremost, the front desk, particularly Luca, made me immediately feel welcomed, part of the community, inspired and excited for my class. Luca went above and beyond to make sure I was completely comfortable and informed; she was a huge reason I immediately decided to join Row Republic right after my first class! The class itself was amazing - challenging and exciting yet I never felt judged or pushed when I needed a small breather. It was a fantastic workout with super fun music. Facilities were amazing as well, along with a fun and engaging community. If you’re thinking of trying it out - DO IT! You won’t regret it :)

😐 A pretty decent gym. It won't blow you away but its one of the better ones in Boston.
