    Incredibly rude. Went to take my first ever lyra class and had the wrong time. I didn't realize it and was like "Oh I thought the class was at 545 and the teacher was like "we'll I teach it every week I would know the time check your email confirmation" and shut the door. It was an honest mistake in my part and she was incredibly belittling so I'm actually glad I didn't take her class. I can't imagine how she would be with a beginner student. Very disappointing.

    Love this place but you charge too much to make anyone share a pole. I’ll keep coming every week, but I’ll always ask for my money back when you over book your classes. Annoyed and bummed. ***In response to the owner: I’d pay more to use my own apparatus. You don’t have a lot of time on the pole if you’re sharing - the class is only 1 hour and you’re warming up for a minimum of 15-20 minutes. At pilates, I’m never sharing machines. In yoga, I’m never sharing mats. I still maintain that you all are amazing but I’ve seen multiple people leave class over this. Just feedback to consider.

    I had been going to this studio regularly for a while (several months to a year) and noticed that they started slowly over-booking, and 2-3 folks in my class would have to share a pole (we don't wear a lot of clothing because we need friction in order to stay on the pole...) I felt uncomfortable about doing that for an hour straight, considering the fact that we're in a pandemic. I figured that if I voiced that I was uncomfortable, they'd adjust accordingly and only have the folks that are comfortable with it sharing. I come to class one day and it's totally packed, so I would have to ask someone to share their pole with me. I told the office about how I felt and they said that there wasn't anything they could do and that they would still have to charge me for the class. I said alright and left. Called a few days later to see if anyone could help me, the girl on the phone was covering for the manager and cut me off when I was explaining the situation, saying that it was fair because they announced it online (never saw or heard any announcement about everyone having to share, but alright), that they had been doing this for a while, etc. It was a little aggressive, but fine, one lost class isn't going to kill me. I asked if I could possibly get a refund on the rest of my classes (over $200 worth of classes), and it was a no. She suggested I buy some merch with the classes (?!?!) or go to other types of classes (not pole) or take private pole lessons (way more expensive) at the studio. Kind of ruined the experience for me, I really enjoyed it before all of this and I did not feel valued as a client at all.

    I’ve been going here for a while and I love all of the instructors and students that are here. The Fit Factory is one of the most welcoming studios for beginners and advanced movers. Highly highly recommend! I also appreciate how transparent they are with their policies especially during the pandemic. I noticed that some people posted about how the classes are overbooked. A normal pole class has two people per pole, this was the case before Covid and because of the restriction, studios had to tailor classes according to the state mandate. I never heard of a studio having one person per pole for a normal class. If you don't like sharing a pole stay at home or book a private. I don't know how normal folk think that one person per pole can run a business. Anyway I love the FF team <3

    The Fit Factory has to be the coolest place in Babylon. They have the best energy, staff, and vibes. Everything is so clean and every trainer closely watches and corrects everyone’s form. You can expect a fun and safe environment with athletes of all levels and backgrounds. Highly recommend to anyone interested in trying out pole or aerial fitness.

    Everyone here is always so welcoming & I never feel judged. The classes are the best I’ve been to yet. They explain everything so clear. I’ve been doing pole & silks classes, definitely recommend coming here!

    This aerial studio is so welcoming and organized. Beautiful large space for pole, Lyra, hammock, silks and more! The entire staff is knowledgeable and wonderful. The instructors are welcoming and patient, and value the experience of all who walk through the doors. 10/10!

    Imagine for a moment walking into a fitness studio that welcomes you in and makes you feel right at home. That’s the Fit Factory. Their classes are fun AND encourage you to move from “there’s no way I can do that” to “omg I can’t believe I finally did that!” The instructors are passionate about their classes and it shows in the way they take the time to make sure students are getting the technique down. The Fit Factory makes you feel like you’re surrounded by friends that encourage you along the way. There’s no other place like it and I encourage everyone to bring a friend or two with them so they can experience a different way to have fun but also challenge yourself physically! What makes this experience even better is knowing that my investment in these classes are supporting a small business in my community that holds a safe space for fitness and anyone that wants to try pole fitness, Lyra, Aerial and so much more! With the challenges that COVID presented small businesses I’m so happy that FF was able to make it through we need more places like this! ♥️

    I love the Fit Factory! I’ve been coming here for years… unfortunately, due to my hectic work/school schedule I’ve not been able to commit to it as much I would love to. I was going there religiously prior to COVID and I’ve attended periodically now during the pandemic. They have done a great job with adjusting their policies in accordance to the ongoing changes in mandates and COVID regulations. I take classes here and there, when I have the time and the staff are always so nice to me and go above and beyond. The staff and the owner are very professional and care about their valued customers. I can’t wait to go back and take some pole classes!

    This is an absolutely amazing, and wonderful place! Every time I’m here it feels like I’m transported into another space where I don’t have to worry about the outside stress in the world. I focus on me and have fun learning to pole dance, work my body on a Lyra, and enjoy safe space with friends.. Wonderful, supporting, talented, and understanding staff and instructors. I’m not someone who is fond of the task of having to workout, but being here makes getting in shape and caring for my body and health fun and worthwhile. Definitely a place that feels like home away from home.

    The Fit Factory is a sanctuary for all things positive and creative inside you to come out and play! I came for the pole classes and I stayed for the community. After coming here for about 3 years now and working/visiting many different gyms and studios across the greater New York area, this one is a gem. Everyone is nice, respectful and always encouraging one another! Also, the instructors truly are 10/10 in both their knowledge of each apparatus, as well as their kindness and patience with us students. Bonus: it’s easy to make a friend because sometimes we get to share an apparatus! (it helps when you’re trying to film the sick new routine you just learned but need to get them anglessss caught on camera). If you’re looking for an encouraging and welcome space to learn some cool stuff and feel strong along the way, look no further!

    I've been in the pole world for a little over 3 years now and in that time have had the pleasure of going to multiple studios, the Fit Factory holds a special place in my heart for their caring, open atmosphere, and way to inspire both personally and for the craft. I just wanted to say, the owner Krystle really does care greatly about the experience here, as do the staff. It's definitely been part of the push (one that has been in the works for some time, not because of these reviews) for them to expand to a larger space.. which they will be this summer! And then pole sharing and etc will be less of a concern. Any way, it wouldn't be possible if the owner and staff weren't so conscientious and protective of keeping a safe, fun, and safe atmosphere here. Anyone hesitant or conflicted by what's been said should still give this studio a try. Many students that have can tell you this studio changed and improved their life and health for the better (me included!)

    I went there yesterday, when I walked in the girls were looking at me kinda funny but I didn’t let it phase me. I went there with my cousin when we explain to them that we were new they started to smile be friendly. overall the intro class was fun and simple. but when I was leaving with my mat one of the workers we’re trying to argue with me that my mat was the studios mat and honestly I didn’t let that face me until the studio called my cousin apologizing instead of me. I am 23 and I do look young so I guess that is why but that is completely inappropriate to me and they should’ve came to me instead of my cousin who is only one year older than me.

    I was there for an unrelated event. BUT from what I could tell. They have very clean facility designed to meet physical and mental therapeutic needs. It's a work out place for women. I'm a dude. It's not the spot for me persay..But some can come here and find a uplifting and positive environment and some one to help them on their journey. They get an easy 5 stars.
