    Throwback Fitness was the perfect partner to work with for our company summer outing last week! Had an initial call with Ryan to talk through what we were looking for - setting expectations on how active we wanted to be :) He was very friendly and easy to work with. The day of our event Hurricane Elsa was suppose to hit but Ryan and the team was flexible about whether we'd want to reschedule or not. Ultimately decided to push forward and so glad we did! No rain (in Brooklyn) and Couch Helena did a fantastic job facilitating some really fun games! A nice mix of familiar activities with a twist, some that required a lot of running, some were more strategy based. They even customized some games, tailoring it to our company (we're a drinks marketing agency and had to do some drinks trivia). Throwback Fitness brought all the things needed for the games, kept us laughing, and all around the perfect activity for team bonding!

    Jenna and Sam were amazing coaches for our corporate field day in NJ! All of the games were interactive, and there was something for everyone (especially since we have a few folks who prefer non-physical games). The games definitely brought out a competitive side in our employees that I have never seen, in a good way! We plan to have an annual field day moving forward with Throwback Fitness because of how amazing Jenna and Sam were and how fun and engaging the games were. Hands down, the best teambuilding event our company has ever done. I also want to give a special shoutout to Stacy, who helped coordinate everything behind the scenes. She was very responsive and accommodating in every way! Throwback Fitness has a wonderful team behind them with Jenna, Sam, and Stacy! :)

    We did a field day with Throwback Fitness and it was a blast! It was the perfect amount of time, not too long or too short. Our instructor was filled with energy and make it that much more fun! Recommend any company looking for a fun time and wants a bit of friendly competitions between coworkers.

    Throwback organized our department's first ever field day and it was such as success! Even on a blazing hot 95 degree day in NYC, our entire team had a great time. Such fun and creative games and good for all ages/athletic abilities. Kyle and Britney were great coaches and even tailored the games to our company subject matter. We will be using Throwback for our annual field day moving forward!

    Such an incredible bonding activity for our large team of 80+! The games were fun, interactive, and inclusive of every member. I love that we were able to choose our own games and request our own level of activity. HIGHLY recommend if you're looking for something engaging in the remote working world.

    My company hired Throwback fitness for a last minute charity field day event that we were orchestrating for the end of October. I spoke to Stacy at throwback literally two weeks prior to our event and she pulled through and made it happen. When I say the company was not only great at communicating, they were also great with planning the field day activities. The price was also affordable. In addition, I was absolutely satisfied with the coach Marlee as well, who showed up professionally equipped and full of energy to get the whole team amped up. She was friendly and punctual, she also knew how to swiftly get the job done. She even had backup suggestions and games for the rainy weather that came along. Everyone had a blast and the event was a success, I would highly recommend Throwback Fitness for any events you would like executed from start to finish. Even Ryan who answers calls for the company was pleasant! 5 stars for this company and we will definitely utilize their services in the future!

    I partnered with Throwback Fitness for a company off-site I was hosting and it was a great decision. The team worked with me when we had a weather scare and put on an amazing event in the end. The team enjoyed it so much and they can't wait for the next one. Highly recommend if you're looking for a team building event for your team. This was my first time putting together this type of event and everything went smoothly. Can't wait for the next one!

    Our company didn't know what to expect from our first Field Day with Throwback Fitness but we were 100% satisfied with the experience!!! The coaches were great and the games were very fun to play. Our leadership team was thrilled with how the event went, we will definitely do this again, a fun, team-oriented time was had by all!!!

    Our team has an amazing experience with Throwback Fitness. We did it as a team retreat and it was a blast. Our coach, Kyle, was fun and brought energy immediately to get even reluctant teammates happily involved. We would definitely do this again and highly recommend it to anyone thinking of a team retreat or other fun group activity!!

    Throwback Fitness and our company recently collaborated for a field day event that proved to be an absolute success. The coaches, who were enthusiastic and engaging, had the ability to motivate our team effectively. They recommended games that were not only entertaining but also nostalgic. Before the event, the company took the initiative to understand our group's preferences and expectations, resulting in a fantastic program that met our needs. We parted ways with a strong desire to work with them soon!!!

  • 5/5 Helena H. 1 year ago on Google
    Our group of 40 had a wonderful time with the Throwback coaches! They made a diverse, competitive and fun itinerary of games and it was a great way for our group to get to know each other better through teamwork. 10/10 would book again, thank you!

  • 5/5 Anmol O. 1 year ago on Google
    Throwback fitness team has such variation and versatility in their games which makes everyone comfortable, involved and entertained and encourages desire to participate. Their kind gesture of capturing all memorable clicks throughout the event would be a treasure forever for our company. The process from communicating planning to execution to implementation couldn't have been smoother.

  • 5/5 Brian S. 1 year ago on Google
    Throwback Fitness helped us plan a great event for our company of about 35 people. The games were fun, coaches were great, and it will definitely be one of the things our employees talk about for a long while. Like anyone planning an event you always get a bit nervous about how things will turn out if you've never worked with a company before, but I would highly recommend them!

    Our team had a fantastic experience with Throwback Fitness. We did a field day on the lawn outside our office and the whole team had fun. The games were just the right mix of moving around and getting active without needing to be athletically skilled, and everyone had a blast. We had 40-50 people participate and it was a great way to get outside and bond since our department has grown a lot and not everyone had met or had the chance to spend time together before. Thanks Throwback for an excellent field day event!

  • 5/5 Jesse Kalatchi M. 9 months ago on Google
    Throwback Fitness just worked with us on a company field day and it was beyond fantastic. The three coaches were fun, involved, and could really pump up our team! The games they suggested for us were all so unique, retro, and FUN! The company really took the time before the event to get to know what our group was looking for and what we wanted out of the experience, and they curated a great program for us. We all walked away hoping we could do another event with them in the future!

    I worked with Throwback Fitness to host a departmental "Sports Day" in Central Park, and my team and I couldn't be more thrilled with how everything turned out! Our day-to-day contact, Stacy, was amazing and helped walk me through the planning process with such ease. Permitting with Central Park is never fun, but Stacy made sure I had all the info to make it as smooth of a process as possible. Also, a HUGE shoutout has to go to our coaches onsite, Britney and Winter! They were phenomenal with our group, cracking jokes and hyping everyone up while simultaneously hosting and explaining each activity. Over three weeks later and everyone in the office is still buzzing about how much fun they had, and how they can't wait for next year. Kudos to everyone involved on the Throwback side!

    We could not recommend Throwback enough! Our team had an amazing time! They are still talking about it a few days later! The games were tailored perfectly to our team. Coach Kyle was able to get everyone involved and excited to play. We are so grateful to Ryan and Kyle for their help in planning and executing our field day. We are very excited about working together again sometime in the near future!

  • 5/5 Sam R. 1 year ago on Google
    Throwback Fitness was such a great part of our summer party! We all had a great time, and the activities were a perfect balance of mental and physical challenges. None of our group felt overwhelmed by the games but everyone thought it was still an active and engaging experience. Stacy was so helpful in organizing our event, and Winter was an incredible coach. Looking forward to doing a Throwback Fitness event again!

  • 4/5 Serious Fun After S. 1 year ago on Google
    Throwback Fitness facilitated our Year-End team event and it was a great and memorable experience for all! There were so many activities planned that catered to all age and activity levels. The coaches had a lot of energy and kept us engaged the entire time. We appreciate the time it took to put this altogether and look forward to working with you for an even larger event in the future. It was seriously fun! :-)

    We loved working with Throwback Fitness for our company's first-ever Field Day. They were quick and friendly communicators throughout the process, picked an awesome park for us, and totally made us all feel like winners the whole time. Highly recommend! -Joel @ Reach Financial

  • 5/5 Sabrina G. 2 years ago on Google
    Throwback was super fun for our company event! The coach was amazing at keeping everyone engaged and on-schedule (we had a dinner afterwards and therefore a hard stop at 90 min). Really fun!

    We try to plan a Virtual Recess event for our company every month. The team loves the friendly competition and the games constantly change and never disappoint. Ryan and Stacy are great coaches and we always have a great time! #teambuilding

  • 5/5 Kelly H. 3 years ago on Google
    Highly recommend this innovative and fun event. Almost 30 of my colleagues recently participated in Virtual Recess. We played several fun games that kept us all laughing and on our toes! Thank you so much to our team leaders, Kyle and Ryan. They both did a great job of managing and executing our event.

  • 5/5 Dora L. 2 years ago on Google
    Highly recommended for virtual team building especially in these tough times. Ryan and his team were awesome! The pricing is very reasonable and they set everything up. Every company should do this with their employees.

  • 5/5 Justine O. 2 years ago on Google
    The Virtual Recess event with Throwback Fitness was the perfect way to get my company together for a virtual team-building experience! Ryan & Stacy were great hosts. We will definitely be booking with them again!

  • 5/5 Shana C. 2 years ago on Google
    Our team had an amazing time! Great and well organized bonding experience. Thank you so much for organizing!!

  • 5/5 Sarah N. 2 years ago on Google
    This is the second time I have used Throwback Fitness (and Coach Kyle) while planning a work team event. The first event was great and the second time was even better. We had a great team-building afternoon with Throwback Fitness! Coach Kyle seamlessly led our rowdy 20+ group through a bunch of fun games ranging in activity level, while ensuring people were having fun and feeling included. Great way to spend a day outside with our team- building morale and unity while having a great time.

  • 5/5 Rosemary S. 4 years ago on Google
    An unconventional but amazingly fun method to get everyone together for team building. Kyle is a great instructor. My office had a blast!

  • 5/5 Christie B. 3 years ago on Google
    Our team which is stretched across the country has an annual in-person meeting which was not possible in the current environment, so we met virtually this year. Throwback Fitness did a virtual recess for us and it was awesome! Thanks Coach Kyle and Coach Ryan for a great time. Go Dodgers! :)

  • 5/5 Nik K. 3 years ago on Google
    Our whole company had a blast!!! Everyone really enjoyed an hour of just being goofy and getting to know each other better. The Throwback team was awesome. I would definitely recommend the Virtual Recess to anyone looking for a fun event for their team while working remotely.

    We had an amazing time partnering with Throwback Fitness for our team's summer fun event. Stacy was our main point of contact and was super responsive throughout the whole process, answering all our questions in a timely manner. On the day of the event, Helena, our Head Coach, took care of everything for us. She and the other coaches facilitated the games, making sure everyone understood the rules and even taking photos for us throughout the event! The games were fun and interactive and became natural icebreakers that don't come up in the office anymore. Everything was well thought out and well executed. We would definitely work with Throwback again for another field day!

    We used Throwback Fitness for our high school field day and it was a blast! My contacts with TF were super responsive and helpful in designing a day that all of our students would enjoy. The activities were great and varied from low to high energy events and it suited all of our participants. The coaches were great- clear with directions and fun to work with. We decided to hold a final death match for our two top scoring teams and it was one of the most fun moments of the day- who knew an egg and spoon race could garner that much excitement! I would recommend anyone looking for a great group activity day- teens or adults- to use Throwback Fitness!

    We loved our Redken Field Day X Throwback fitness, and would HIGHLY recommend for anyone who is looking for a new and fun way to take on team building!! 10/10 Throwback Fitness hosted our Redken Field Day for our annual Artist Training. Our group had 30 brand Artists and 5 corporate employees from all over the US and all different demographics, but EVERYONE had a blast ! There was just enough physical activity to get all the teams competitive and to participate, without making anyone feel uncomfortable or incapable with the action. Winter and Julia were excellent coaches, kept our rowdy group on task while having fun, and were incredible hype-women!! Working with Stacy to plan this event made everything easy and simple, and somehow managed to make it all happen just over 2-weeks and during the holidays! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

    I booked Throwback to host my birthday party and it was awesome! I wanted to make sure that the games we played were competitive but not physically demanding because not only was I 4.5 months pregnant at the time, but I had a wide range of friends with different physical limitations and it was important to me that everyone had a good time. Throwback accommodated us perfectly. Our itinerary consisted of 5 games - a couple were purely mental puzzle/trivia games that had some fun twists on lawn activities plus game shows that reminded me of my childhood and growing up in the 90s. Some others had just the right amount of physical activity to get the blood flowing but not wear anyone out. We all loved the color war theme and it was so fun to throw a birthday party where us 30-somethings felt like kids! I highly recommend them to anyone looking to throw a uniquely fun party or team building event! Can't wait til my next birthday to use them again!

    Coach Winter, Andrew and Chris were great and our team had a blast. Everyone felt engaged the whole time and it was so fun to do something active and in the fresh air before it gets too cold!

    Throwback Fitness hosted our company field day and we had such a blast. The games were fun and were tailored to all types of participants. We had a variety of physical games as well as some trivia/mental puzzles to keep everything well rounded. Our coaches (Jenna and Johnni) were super friendly, fun, and really contributed to the atmosphere. We highly recommend Throwback Fitness for any teambuilding event!

  • 5/5 Melanie P. 5 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    Our teams had an excellent event with Throwback Fitness. The coaches on site kept the fun going. The games were physically more intense than we had initially understood so be mindful of the activity levels if you have mixed athletic ability and parameters. Working with Stacy to set up the event was a really great.

  • 5/5 Theresa J. 4 months ago on Google • 1 review
    I was thrilled with our experience with the Throwback Team for our company on-site this week! They gave us a great mix of physical and mental challenges that worked well for the wide range of abilities, and they made sure to highlight that someone could sit out if they needed to. They kept everyone on track and made sure they were following the rules without taking away the fun. I really appreciate their work to give us such a great event!

🫤 Very disappointed with the gym's new timing. I chose PF over Blink Fitness although it was a little far away from my place because it would be open 24 hours and it really helps people who work different schedules. Remember, not everyone works 9-5. The 24 hour policy was what made PF unique and stand...
