Michaela is a terrific, knowledgeable, and fun trainer. Besides knowing what she's doing, Michaela brings a lot of humor and warmth to her work. Kimior chooses awesome music and has the world's best attitude. I really like this place because of the commitment and dedication of the team. They care about their clients!

Foundation Fitness is amazing! As a high school senior my schedule is constantly shifting but the staff and my trainer Michaela have been so flexible and willing to adapt to my needs. It's been about 2 months and I've already seen so much progress with not only with weight loss, but also increased strength. Michaela has also been incorporating boxing into my sessions which has been so much fun! I highly recommend Foundation Fitness anyone who's considering joining... Just do it!

The entire Team at Foundation Fitness of Georgetown has been working with me to accomplish my fitness goals. I've been working out with Michaela for two months now and have far surpassed anything I thought would be possible after multiple children. I look better now in my 40's than at any other point in my life.Michaela is particularly good about listening to fitness goals and tailoring workouts to accomplish the kinds of results you want. She's also helped me to rehab after injury and build strength and mobility that I didn't think was possible. Highly recommend.

Foundation fitness has been an excellent experience so far! I have been working out with Michaela for three months and already see the changes I was hoping for. Michaela is challenging and will make you work hard every minute of the session! I would highly recommend her! The gym is clean and offers a more private experience than larger gyms that I have been a member of. Sometimes I am the only client in the gym! Every session has been different and tailored towards my personal fitness goals. The equipment is well maintained and there is such a variety! I would highly recommend foundation fitness to anyone looking for a private personal training experience.

Very friendly group of experts that helps you to set goals and remain consistent in training! They are very easy to communicate with and super flexible in terms of scheduling. Would highly recommend.

Excellent review for Foundation Fitness. I had been training for a bit over a month and saw significant improvements. Not only will one get excellent personal training (accompanied by boxing! Which I very much enjoy), there is also nutritional help, which contributes significantly to health benefits and makes this gym an exceptional find. I worked with Patrick, Kimior, and mainly with Michaela, I couldn’t be happier. Everyone is friendly, knowledgeable, and will genuinely work with you. Thank you, Foundation Fitness. You guys are the best! #raisethebar #beyourbest

This was such a find for me to discover this place. With 2 surgeries, I needed to gain strength to keep doing the things I love, a clean gym that sanitizes everything so I feel comfortable being there, and a trainer who knows exactly what I can tolerate and when to make me fit. Thank you!!

Balance is doing a lot to keep the gym sanitized and is still offering classes outdoors with social distancing. Glad to be back at the gym!!

Foundation Fitness is an amazing gym! I have been training with Kimior for a month now, and the results are already amazing. He tailors the workouts to your own personal fitness and body goals, and his knowledge of health and fitness is extensive. He is also so nice and makes working out fun! I used to hate working out, but now I look forward to every Tuesday and Thursday that I get to go to Foundation Fitness.

I have been training with Kimior for a couple years on and off while at college and he is so great! Always willing to work with my goals, schedule (and college budget)! I have brought friends with me and will always recommend this gym to anyone looking.

Foundation fitness is an incredible training space and has totally transformed my life. I’ve always been a big gym goer, but my sessions with Ryan Blake totally changed the way I train, the way I relate to food and the shape of my body.If you want a stellar results go for the “Body by Blake” training experience. You’ll love to hate him and more to it love the results.

I've been coming here for 5 years. Ryan pushes me to my limit every time but keeps it fun too. He mixes up the exercises every week so it's always fresh. Depending on the time of day, you might be working beside another client and trainer or you might have the whole space to yourself.

Ryan is the trainer that I love to hate! He is incredibly knowledgeable about fitness and the human body and he is always pushing me to be as strong as I can be. He is patient when he needs to be and strict when he sees me slacking. I look forward to my workouts with Ryan. He has made me a better person and athlete. Thank you Ryan, Kimior and Foundation Fitness!

Foundation Fitness has a nice gym and great trainers. The sessions are 45 minute blocks with solo warmup before. They're just the right length and intensity.

LOVE this place. You get a terrific work out with such friendly people -Kimior is a gem! If you are serious about getting healthy and fit in a welcoming environment, this is the spot! Plus, they support local charities like Knock Out Abuse.

I've really enjoyed working with my personal trainer Ryan Blake at the Palisaides/Georgetown location. He's great and I love the neighborhood feel of the gym. And having the accountability is key!

I have been going to Foundation Fitness Georgetown for almost a year now. My daughter introduced me to her trainer Kimior because I wanted to lose weight and get in better shape. Foundation Fitness is clean and well equipped. Kimior is enthusiastic and motivating. My workouts are challenging and varied so I'm never bored. I've lost more than 50 lbs and look forward to my next session!

I have not had as good experience with any trainer as the one I have with Kimior at Foundation Fitness of Georgetown. Reliable, caring, strict and fun. Can't ask anything more from a trainer.

This place is GREAT! I hate exercising....and Patrick and Ryan keep me at it. I feel great after my workouts and have seen a marked difference in my stamina, energy, and over-all fitness. Ryan keeps me motivated to keep it up, especially on days when I'm not feeling up to it. The team has been more than accommodating of my schedule. After working out here it would be hard to go anywhere else.

Foundation Fitness is a game changer! I have been training with Kimior for over a year and have never had the same workout twice (not to mention never looked or felt better). He is awesome! All of the trainers are friendly, professional and so positive. It is a fun and welcoming environment and I see people of all fitness levels and abilities getting very personalized attention every week. I highly recommend the investment in yourself!

I’m training with Ryan Blake at Foundation Fitness in Georgetown, and both and the center are excellent. The trainings are designed specifically for you and I feel steady improvement. The staff and facilities are great and I look forward to continuing.

I really enjoy the boot camp sessions run by Kimior. I've been doing them for five years now and they keep me fit, both physically and mentally. They're fun too. Also, I just got one of the new FF "Raise the Bar" tee-shirts and love it. It's comfortable and very cool on these hot days.

I've been going to FF for the past 15 months and it's been transformative for me both mentally and physically. It's not a "gym" --it's a small personal training space. Kimior's (my trainer) guidance, training expertise, and the workouts he's designed for me have helped me overcome my resistance to training, made me much more disciplined mentally, and as a result I am stronger, and more focused, than I've ever been. I've rehabilitated my frozen shoulder. I'm learning what I need to do to gain more balance, elasticity, flexibility and strength. Kimior is so encouraging and has helped me develop a much healthier approach to taking care of myself, overall, discussing nutrition at length too. All the trainers are excellent as well as friendly (have friends who also go there). It was a great decision to commit to FF and focus on my health. So grateful I did. So grateful to FF!

This is a fantastic personal gym and Ryan Blake is a world class trainer. He is dedicated to ensuring you are using the correct form while creating challenging, fun, and always changing workouts. 45mins with him is never boring. He has created workouts to meet my needs, work with my triathlon training schedule, and accommodate minor injuries. I have increased my cardio capacity, strength, and ability to lift ever increasing weight safely. I have toned my body and remained strong. I highly recommend Ryan.

I have been going to Foundation Fitness on and off (I was going to school in California) for over a year and highly recommend! I have been training with Ryan who has been amazing in helping me achieve my health goals. His sessions are both fun and challenging. Additionally, I had very little experience working out and Ryan was always helpful when answering all my questions. If you or someone you know is looking for a trainer I would recommend coming in for a consultation at this location!

Highly recommended. Been working out 8 months at this location. I am now 25 pounds lighter, have 3-4% less body fat and am stronger than I’ve been in a very long time. Still have progress to make. Been training with Ryan for 4 months and he has been excellent. He has the right combo of challenging and risk-aware. The latter due to the fact that I’m in my early 50s and this can be more prone to injury than a 20 or 30-something. I particularly appreciate his constant reinforcement of the right form to use when doing any kind of weight training The location is always clean and orderly, All the staff are friendly and it feels like a genuine community.

A great class called Fat Burn with Kimior. Awesome conditioning and I loved the individual attention to form. Haven't felt so challenged for a long time. Hope to come back again with my husband. If you have 45 mins, I highly recommend this class at noon. Unique exercises and a well rounded circuit training. 470 calories in 53 minutes . yay!

Foundation fitness has been the sole reason I got back into fitness. It is an extraordinary gym that has exceeded all of my expectations. The staff is phenomenal and works with me/creates workouts that I enjoy but also push me to my goals. I have never felt stronger nor healthier than I have after working out at this gym. 10/10 recommended getting a membership here!

Me encanta este lugar, especialmente porque el personal es super agradable, con una actitud simpre positiva. Yo asisto a las clases en grupo y me fascinan porque me ha permitido conocer nuevas personas e intercambiar ideas en cuanto a ejercicios y alimentacion. Ademas cuenta con dos banos, regaderas, lockers, maquinas y todo lo mantienen siempre limpio. Lo super recomiendo.

I discovered this gym through class pass and am now a full time member. This gym is great! There’s parking, the equipment is nice, the bathrooms are stocked with toiletries, and there’s a nespresso machine. The boot camps and other classes are never overcrowded and I always get a good workout. Sometimes I even have the class to myself. It feels like personal training every time.

I’ve been working out with Ryan at FF since November. I’ve worked with other trainers at other gyms in the past, and it’s easy to say that FF has been the best of the best. Without being a drill sergeant, Ryan gets me to push myself, both with my workouts and nutrition. I feel stronger and more confident. Highly recommend.

Kimior is an excellent trainer! Every workout was different, the pace was upbeat, and I would continue seeing him but I am moving out of the state. I've been to several trainers over the years and one thing I really liked was the sense of accomplishment I felt at the end of each session. Everything was broken down and tackled in a manageable way and Kimior's positive enthusiastic attitude kept me motivated. Highly Recommend!

Great trainers and a great facility. The price is super reasonable, especially for a gym in Georgetown. As a student, I have been able to create goals, a workout schedule and price that work for me and I already feel stronger after just over a month. Their challenges (which win you free sessions) are also fun 🙂 Would definitely recommend!

I started working out at Foundation Fitness last April. My goal was to strengthen my core to feel stronger and so I don't get injured. After nearly a year, I feel stronger and more confident. The weight I can lift has nearly tripled since I started. I have worked out with a few different trainers, and while each is different, they have all been great—really focused on my goals and what I want to get out of the workout. I regularly work out with Ryan, who is constantly bringing new workouts to the table and is also excellent at helping with mobility and stretching.The gym is high energy but never over-crowded or filled with intimidating people. The general vibe is positive and upbeat. I've worked out at a few different large gyms in the DC area over the years. Working out at a personal training gym in a one-on-one setting is very different, and if you can swing it, I highly recommend trying it out.
