    Y’all!!! JOIN NOW! I haven’t worked out consistently since spring 2022 for multiple reasons but mostly because I get a little shame not being where others are. When I came in Kaitlyn (sorry if the spelling is off) welcomed me and explained the flow of the class. Then Brandon came and spoke to me and explained more in depth. I was a bit nervous but a group of ladies welcomed me during stretch time and before I knew it I was grinding. Brandon kept the momentum up and no worries if you’re doing it wrong he will come and assist. I will definitely be back. This is my first time saying this but this gym made me feel good, motivated, and CONFIDENT in working out. I will be back. Great staff!

    After commuting 45 minutes for over a year to go to my gym I decided it was time to search for something closer. I signed up for a free month through class pass and stumbled upon Illuminate sweat. After my first class Jacob offered me an additional class for free. I fell in love with the atmosphere and how attentive the coaching team is. I finally took the dive and signed up for a membership which offers multiple options to assist on my weight loss journey. This facility is also very clean and well put together. I look forward to working with the staff here to achieve my goal.

    I don’t have enough words to explain how amazing this gym is . The thing it’s that it’s not only a gym , it a family a support system. Illuminate Sweat has changed my life. Emily, Colby, Nate and Brandon have always been so welcoming. They help in all that they can , always . If you need to make a change , give this gym a try . I promise you won’t regret it .

    Gym is clean and organized. Colby is great and super helpful with setting fitness goals and how to achieve them. Emily is an awesome instructor - super motivating and always smiling! Front office staff is friendly and makes checking in for a class easy.

    This is not only a great work out but the facilities are well done and there is a great vibe. The instructors are awesome- I’ve mostly done Emily and Ashley’s classes- love them both! Emily is always close by to make adjustments or modifications that I need and shows genuine care. Both are very motivating. The front desk is always super friendly and helpful too!

    It is the perfect hour to get your sweat on! I have been going for a few months now and Emily has been my coach in the classes I have been going. I absolutely love her so much! She has helped me so much and taught me so much about how strong I actually am! She has been such a fun coach to get to know. I highly recommend trying out illuminate sweat if you are looking for a great work out and to challenge your self. I use to work out at another studio and I would always come out of there with so much back pain but since I have been here I have been feeling great!!!

    Illuminate Sweat is a little difficult to find however once you find it (it's in the back) the parking is accessible. Shannon is a great instructor, the class is divided into 4 circuits- including cardio & weights. Groups are divided into 5 to ensure that everyone has proper form and direction from the instructor. What I found different from this class compared to others is that everyone is given a heart rate monthly to track their workout/calories/heart rate. There are two screen to show how you compare to others while also how much you push yourself. At the end of the class you an email is sent to show your results to keep on track. Shannon is attentive while being tough. I especially enjoyed the smaller setting with individual attention to form, this was my first time using weights, understanding how they work to tone and build muscle motivates me to add them more into my routine in the future.

    The best gym! Classes are so motivating and fun, and the coaches are the best! You work all muscle groups each week and get such an efficient workout in an hour. Highly recommend!

    I don’t think I’ve ever loved a gym the way I love this one. I give credit to these trainers because this is the one reason I was able to get back into fitness! I’ve tried LifeTime’s Alpha, and Orange Theory (which are great) BUT Illuminate Sweat just has something different. From the music, the environment, the trainers, and even the other members who constantly motivate you, everything about this place is 10/10. I honestly have no complaints and look forward to every single class.

    My Son started going there in January 2023. He really likes the Gym, Workout, and Instructors. They’re very professional. I join the Gym as well in March 2023. when we started to bring our friends to try out the Gym workout they told me and our guest to come in 10-15 minutes before the class starts to make sure they understand the process. I will keep on bringing friends to try out the Gym. I just turn 50 yrs. Old in January of this year. If I can do it you can do it too. If you read my review tell them. (Natieli) said to try it out. Also you will see all ages. Young. Younger! 20’ 30’ 40’ 50’ 60’. But You need to go and try it out! Don’t just read about! Go and See it for yourself! I hope to see you there!

    I’m always blown away by Illuminate Sweat’s programming. Their knowledge of fitness really sets them very far apart from all the other studios in the area. Here you’ll find something very different from your typical HIIT workout, but instead a welcoming community of professionals who ensure you get an efficient and effective workout with something different each time. They set you up to push yourself and crush your own goals in the gym then subsequently in life too. I’m a huge fan! Coach Brandon kills it every time!

    This place is bombbbb! I love the group classes they offer and how the lights in the room change for each HIIT rotation! The class is dim, but enough light to see what you are doing. I think that's good for those who may be intimidated by those big gym settings with bright lights (you feel like everyone is watching you. The room is cool and not hot like some gyms where it starts to get muggy. The instructors are fantastic and super motivating! ! They also offer a free class with no commitment, you've literally got nothing to lose. Once you try it, you will LOVE IT! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

    I love this place! Joined about a month ago and am already seeing results. The coaches will push you to your max level- whatever that is, based on your strength level and experience working out. All the staff and coaches here are friendly, super helpful and want you to leave better and stronger than you were when you walked in the class. I also appreciate they take the time to correct posture or technique to make sure you are doing the sets correctly. It's also great how they recognize the hard work and effort you're putting in. Each workout is a blast. An hour of loud music and motivation goes by quickly! There's also a great mix of men and women, all ages and experience levels at each class. If you're interested in joining, contact them for a free class to get a feel of the place!

    Working out at Illuminate Sweat has shown significant muscle increase as well as leaning out with the cardio intervals. All of the instructors are amazing and very well knowledgable about using great form and directions. This is a hard workout but can go at your own personal pace, but with such great energy. so happy I found this place!

    I really like this gym. I switched from Orange Theory to here. The routines are similar but there is much more personal interaction at Illuminate Sweat. It is more like a group setting with personal training. They also offer more in the way of nutritional advice along with quarterly fitness challenges. You get personal diet to follow with body fat analysis. It is an additional fee for the two month challenge but it is reasonable considering what is provided. There are other facilities at this location also which is a plus, physical therapy, Pilates and more if you want to add more to the group fitness.

    I stumbled on Illuminate when I was many-drinks-in at a Halloween charity event and drunkenly bidding on silent auction items, one of which was two personal training sessions with Colby Gibson at Illuminate Sweat. I found out a few days later that I had won quite a few auction items. (Good thing it was for Charity.) Colby contacted me a few days after the auction ended and we setup our initial appointment. I figured I'd burn through the training sessions and maybe purchase a few more but probably wasn't going to commit to anything since I already had a gym membership elsewhere. After I used my two training sessions I immediately scheduled more and have been seeing him two or three times a week since. The trainers there are some of the friendliest people you will meet with some added humor but don't let that fool you, they don't go easy on you. They work with you every step of the way making sure to design a program and keep you motivated so that can help you achieve your goals. No matter your shape or size, fitness level or experience, they will work with you to help you get where you want to be in an environment that is encouraging you to keep doing your best. Update 10/31/2022: Going on two years and I still try and attend at least three or four classes a week. Often I am forcing myself out of bed in the morning to get there but I am always happy when I do. The coaches are amazing, always there to help with my form, and the other members are like a 2nd family.

    Best decision I’ve made for not only my fitness health, but mental health as well. I’m coming up on my 1 year anniversary and I’ve never been happier with the transformation I’ve seen in myself. The trainers are amazing and it’s soo family oriented. I’ve made lifelong friends by joining this gym.

    After the first trial workout, I fell in love with the studio, workouts and all the trainers. One of the best workout experiences I have ever had, and the results are tremendous after constant couple of months! I signed up for a membership and never looked back. The strongest recommendation for this place, and for Colby and Brian! They also have very early workouts (5-6 am) that fit in my busy schedule perfectly

    I’m approaching the 1 year mark this summer and the impact Illuminate Sweat, with all its amazing coaches, have had on my fitness is remarkable. I run faster and longer, lift heavier with better form, and have continuously crushed my health targets. Personal programming, fun environment, and a true community make Illuminate Sweat the perfect home to work on that hot summer bod. Pro-tip: Ask about their Alani Nu products to help maximize performance and recovery. 💪🏼

    Enjoyed my first workout with coach Emily. Did a 5 am full body workout, she was able to help me with form and was full of energy. A great way to start the day and can’t wait to go back for another workout. Front staff was also wonderful!
