    Very great bodyweight workout! This exercise will push you and help you become better and stronger everyday. Working out at Audi field was a great experience. Visited their gym a couple days ago and felt very safe, since they sanitize and keep the gym very clean. Maddie and her team are top notch! I highly recommend checking them out! Will not disappoint!

    I love this gym! The classes are small enough to get the benefits of a personal trainer but mixed enough to not feel under a microscope. The groups are of all ages and skill levels, which makes it comfortable to take your own pace. The focus on form really distracts me from how intense the workout actually is. I've never really been faithful to but maybe one other gym class in my whole life and I'm pretty married to this one. Welcoming staff, easy to understand workouts, and focused on full body strength. Can't ask for a better class to do something different from the typical spin HIT workouts.

    Such an empowering, non intimidating and motivating environment. I love how there's a whole kitchen and workstation too! The workouts build off of each other so it's not just random exercises daily. There are also classes that are just HIIT style with no barbell exercise. The coaches take time to really break down the barbell move for the day so it's great for a first timer or regular to really focus on form and prevent injuries. The schedule is designed to come daily or even once a week so you can easily track your progress! You don't feel like you're thrown into a chaotic class of 30 people like some other studios and large chains. The coaches are all great and the owner coaches herself. Support local female owned business! I love the girl strong classes! Same barbell class as the regular but in an all female empowering environment!

    I love this gym! I've had Maddie and Rob as my coaches for a few years, and to their dismay followed them to their new gym. The coaches are both encouraging and knowledgable, making it a pleasure to work with them. The new gym is awesome with all new equipment, and the ladies bathroom is well stocked and feels like home. I highly recommend this gym to everyone!!

    This is the best gym in DC. The owner, Maddie, is so intentional about the space and atmosphere she creates - the coaches are enthusiastic and personable, the workouts varied, and the facility always clean and organized. The focus is always on getting strong, in mind and body. I’m so glad I joined this gym!

    202strong is the first gym I've joined and the first workout I've really been able to stick to. The workout changes every class so you never get bored. The coaches take time every class to break down all movements so they're approachable for all levels and they're always available. Attending the Girlstrong class has given me such a supportive and encouraging group of women, both coaches and classmates! This gym and this community changed my relationship to working out and made it something I enjoy!

    I love everything about this gym - the coaches, the community, the workouts, and the healthy approach to fitness. Every workout is challenging and I’m amazed at how quickly I have seen progress. It’s always intimidating to start a new gym routine or learn something new but 202Strong offers a warm welcome and teaches you all you need to know. You’ll feel like a regular in no time.

    This is the best gym in D.C. hands down. Maddie is a gem. It's a very friendly atmosphere. I got in the best shape of my adult life and it was thanks to the amazing team at 202 Strong. It's not just a gym. This is a community .

    I have been coming to 202strong for a few years now, and it's a wonderful gym. The coaches do a great job of welcoming people of all fitness levels and providing modifications if necessary, all while providing challenging and effective strength and HIT workouts. The other gym-goers are also supportive and friendly. I've been impressed with how 202strong has adapted to the pandemic context, and I've felt safe coming to the socially-distanced classes at the DC location. One of my favorite things is that the space is free from negative body/food talk (they don't even have a scale in the bathroom), which makes it a good space for anyone in recovery from eating disorders or diet culture. If you're looking for a truly welcoming environment where people know your name AND you can reach all your fitness goals, look no further!

    I have been working out with Maddie and 202 Strong for 10 years! I just turned 60 and I'm in the best shape of my life! The small gym classes allows for a personal training session feel but still gives you the motivation with having others around. And those others are all ages and levels doing the same class with potential modifications of the exercises! Learning to use weights and a bar bell properly has changed me forever and is so important keeping aging women healthy. I know many who jump around from gym to gym keeping it fresh, but Maddie and her staff of trainers keep it constantly changing and improving so your body doesn't get used to the same work out over and over. And now during the COVID era, her Zoom and Instagram classes are great and I've kept in shape during quarentining. The overall culture of this gym is friendly, positive, and motivational! You can't go wrong with 202 Strong!

    Great DC location that makes working out before/during/after work easy. Nice/ clean facilities and great instructors. I attended a weekly cross fit class provided by the company I work for and the instructors did a great job of not overwhelming beginners nor boring the more experienced lifters. All in all a great gym that offers a lot that should cover anyone's personal fitness goals--everything from yoga to Muay Thai, 202 is the place to go

👍 The best thing about this gym is the amount of equipment you can use! This very location is where I started my -100lb weight loss journey. It's really close to home for me, literally!

😠 Be warned. There is a thief who cuts the lockers locks off and steals from the lockers. Judging based on the reaction and actions of the staff. Who in my opinion did not seem to actually care it happen. Only leads me to feel that either they already know about the thief OR it is the staff doing it....

😠 Do not come to this gym!!! They do not care for your safety!! They will cancel your membership for protecting yourself from weird men that will follow you around ! Stay safe and go to a gym that will help you out and help you enjoy your gym experience instead of canceling your membership!

👍👍 I wish I could leave six stars and not just five. This may be my favorite Barre3 studio on the planet. I especially love the spot just above the stairs in the upper studio. I love so many Barre3 studios but this one really is special - it’s location, it’s layout, and they have an amazing number of f...
