I came across Foundation Fitness when getting back into my fitness journey after some time off due to a health issue. Specifically, the "Ladies Lifting Club" caught my eye, because I love lifting, but hate doing it alone/without a plan or some direction. Jenee immediately welcomed me into the club and offered me the support I needed to be consistent in my training again. The class has become a weekly standing appointment for me (I schedule things around it!). Jenee's unwavering faith in me keeps me motivated to keep going, even when it is hard. The rest of the staff is also incredibly warm and kind. The other patrons are respectful and supportive as well. The locker rooms are always clean and well stocked, and there is never a wait for machines/weights. I cannot recommend this gym enough!

I found this place using ClassPass, not even planning to join a gym, but I had such a great experience with Coach Jenee and the Ladies Lifting Club that I decided to sign up. Great people, great vibe, super convenient location, just a really lovely place to work out.

I have been doing group personal training at Foundation Fitness with Jenee for over a year now, and with her help I've been able to drop a significant amount of body fat while gaining muscle and seeing steady progress in my lifts. Definitely couldn't have done it without her help and coaching, and I'm looking forward to progressing further with her.

Absolutely LOVE the community at this gym! The space is clean, equipment is in great shape and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Jenee is an awesome trainer who knows just when to push you and when you deserve a break. Already seeing results in the span of just a month and excited to continue my fitness journey here!

I found this place on ClassPass and LOVED my first Ladies Lifting Club so much I ended up getting personal training from Coach Jenee and becoming a regular member. The community here is top notch and welcoming and supportive to all! Plus I love ending my workouts with a stretch on the porch.

Have really enjoyed my time at Foundation Fitness. Nice set of yoga classes. The basics on weights and cardio machines. And so walkable for Cleveland Park neighbors. But the best part is the people. The team is so welcoming and encouraging. I

Coach Tony was my personal trainer and was an absolute joy to work with. He has an extremely positive attitude, knows when to encourage and push you, and makes the time fly by. He knows almost everyone at the gym and helps foster such a sense of community to everyone who walks through the door. I cannot recommend working with him enough!

Iâve been working out at this gym and training with Jenee for about 4 months. Jenee has been a fabulous trainer and Iâve been thrilled with the results - never thought Iâd be this strong! She really cares about her clients and their progress - would give 10⭐️ if I could.

Elizabeth Peterson

Wonderful gym! It has everything, but what really sets it apart is the warm, friendly, and highly capable training staff. I have been working with Jenee for about a year. She integrates physical therapy into my workouts, which are always challenging and fun. And best of all, I have seen significant improvements in my muscle tone, strength, and balance. (And I am in my 70's! ) I can't say enough good things about this place!

Clean facility that has all you need to get a solid workout in. Equipped with bumper plates, different kinds of barbells, and sturdy Rogue benches. Love that the vibe you get from larger commercial gyms (gym bros, people filming themselves for social media) does not exist here. Other members are respectful and polite. Shoutout to Brenna who was so patient in answering my questions when I signed up for my membership.

I've been going here for a month now, and it has been a good experience. It is not frequently full, especially later so I am able to use the equipment that I want. The staff are nice and helpful, and overall allow me to get my workouts in as easily as possible. The location is also very accessible to my apartment, so I love taking advantage of how long I have access to the gym every day.
