GymClass: Opinions
Fantastic experience: I was a bit intimidated with weightlifting when I started at Gym Class Rocks, but it was the perfect place to get started. Not only was the owner of the gym, Shannon, very accommodating in teaching me the exercises and helping me adjust the workout to my specific needs, but the entire community of women was as well. Once I started getting stronger and ready to increase my weights, I was surrounded by a wonderful group of strong women who provided inspiration and advice on form, weights, and life. And, perhaps most important for me, whenever I skip several weeks due to life getting in the way, I am always welcomed back by Shannon and the community as if I hadn’t been gone at all.
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Gym Class for over a year. When I first started out, I was overweight, weak, had poor agility and poor balance. Shannon has helped me modify my workouts to allow me to work up to where I am today. I lost 80 lbs, and have much better strength, agility and balance. The gym set up has many options for how to accomplish the workouts for each day. The women working out along side of me are friendly and supportive, and I have enjoyed going. I would and have recommended this class to others.
Fantastic experience: I have been attending GymClass workouts since the beginning of the pandemic when Shannon offered complimentary online workouts to the teachers of my district. This past year, I have attended her gym for in-person workouts and for the last 9 weeks have participated in her coaching program, Lift to Lose. I love the camaraderie of the women in her gym and the sense of inclusion and safety. We talk and laugh and the workouts fly by. Also, the classes are small enough that she will make sure you are doing the exercises safely. Shanon’s Lift to Lose coaching program has been a game changer for me. I’ve learned so much about the importance of prepping food ahead and eating a variety of foods with protein. I love that she provides the meal plan for the week along with the recipes and shopping lists. The recipes are easy to follow and delicious. So far I’ve lost 12 pounds but, more importantly, I’m relieved that I have found a way to eat that I can manage with my busy schedule and not feel deprived. In addition, it’s not all about food and weight loss. During her coaching calls, Shannon focuses on weekly themes (e.g., sleep, mental health/changing negative messages, stress, movement, etc.). The things I’m learning from the coaching calls cross over to many areas of my life - not just weight loss/fitness. If you’re feeling a bit stuck in your workouts, give Shannon’s coaching program a try. You won’t regret it!
Fantastic experience: I found Shannon and GymClass through a friend and I'm so glad. This women's only gym is the perfect blend of excellent strength and circuit workouts. Whether you've been working out all of your life, you're trying a gym for the first time, or like me, trying weight training for the first time, you will be supported by this amazing community of women. The workouts are well designed and there are always options to modify and go at your own pace - no pressure here, just lots of encouragement. I've built up my strength and balance since joining GymClass and highly recommend it!
Thank you so much Adrienne!! I'm so grateful for your fabulous friend for sending you our way - you are such a fabulous addition to the GymClass community! And you've gotten SO MUCH stronger!! Proud of you!
Fantastic experience: I actually look forward to coming to Gym Class. It is a great way to get in your strength, training and cardio (regardless of your level.). The program is set up to meet you where you are and help you improve on a schedule that is healthy and doable for you. I’ve had some trainer and gym experiences that felt traumatic, but this feels healing. The owner and her team are incredibly patient and kind.
Thank you so much for your review, Claudia… I’m so grateful that you decided to take the leap, and give Gymclass a chance! You have quickly become a valued member of our community ❤️
Fantastic experience: AMAZING
Thank you so much for your review, Rose! While your time at gym class was cut short by your move, your impact was huge… We will miss you!
Fantastic experience: I am going on 4 years with Shannon at Gym Class and I can’t believe my results… I have muscles and have done a total body transformation… thanks Shannon for helping to motivate me and more importantly make it fun ❤️❤️
Thank YOU for making every class you show up to a party, Kori! You've help to craft this community into what it is - a fun, relaxed and supportive place to better yourself. You always bring such great energy, it's impossible to be in a bad mood when you're around!
Fantastic experience: GymClass is unlike any other gym that I’ve been a part of; from the personable staff Shannon and Zoe, the supportive community of females to the strength training knowledge, classes and equipment. I can’t imagine working out any place else. It has quickly become a home to me. My personal goals to strengthen and tone in the first month has been accomplished. I am constantly motivated by this amazing community to continuously work on new goals month to month. It has changed my perspective on health and training. Thank you!
Thank you so much for you review Roda! We love having you and your fabulous energy in the gym and we are so proud of your progress so far. We can't wait to see what else you'll accomplish at GymClass - the sky's the limit!!! So glad you're part of our community now!
Fantastic experience: Shannon and GymClass deserve a ton of credit for my health, sanity and happiness. I’ve been a client for over 5 years and am always amazed how Shannon’s coaching keeps me challenged and interested. Icing on the cake is the amazing and supportive GymClass community that takes the anxiety out of working out and makes it fun!
ahhh Steph!! Where would we all be without you? Thanks for always making GymClass feel like a home - cozy, welcoming and supportive :) We're so lucky to have had since the beginning! love you!
Fantastic experience: Shannon not only inspires me to continue to work out and to try harder, but she creates a real sense of community with both her online and in-gym classes and events. She is fun, funny, and creates workouts that can be challenging and/or adaptable depending on injuries or other variables. Inspiring!
Thanks for the wonderful words Alison!! It's such a pleasure having you in the community & even better when I get to see you in person <3
Fantastic experience: GymClass is a place that is unlike any I've ever encountered in my 20+ years of working out. The owner, Shannon, takes the time and energy to know and connect with each member and makes sure they are growing in their strength and enthusiasm for working out. The unique special sauce is the mindset shift that I have now that I am a member of this special community. The women not only build one another up but Shannon personally ensures that each person shifts their mindset from "I can't do that" to "look how much I can do!" This has been incredbily powerful for me both inside and outside the gym and I have never felt more confident in both what my body can accomplish and what I can attain as a working mom juggling young kids. I have realized the importance of carving out "me" time to be the best version of myself. I can not speak more highly of this community and the two years I have been priviledged to be a part of it.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review the gym (and me!)... I'm so grateful you took a chance & signed up and so inspired by how you show up for yourself Vanessa!! The community is lucky to have you!
Fantastic experience: Shannon and Gym Class is one of the best thing that’s happened in my life! I’ve said many times over that she has saved my life but last month the proof was in the bloodwork. Overall cholesterol down, LDL down, HDL up, sugar down, A1C down and I’m stronger than I’ve been in years! But most importantly my new mindset has had benefits beyond bloodwork, and beyond the scale (which is also down). Shannon has taught me to see things in a more positive light. I’m so much happier and so grateful for everything I have and Shannon instilled that in me. Her guidance is immeasurable to me. I’m grateful for the physical and mental health she’s giving me as well as her friendship. She’s brought together a community of kind, supportive women who are all doing amazing things. Thank you Shannon! I’m so excited for your new metabolism program!
Thank you so much for the kind words, Danielle! I’m so grateful that you trusted me to guide you along this journey… And now you’re able to inspire others with all the work you’ve done and progrsss you’ve made ❤️ so proud of you! Shannon
Fantastic experience: GymClass and Shannon are the community and person I never knew I needed in my life until life brought me to a path where I wasn’t quite sure where to turn! I have been on a health journey for many years and been part of many different communities in the health and fitness realm. When my life turned upside down, I gave up on me I gave up on caring about me. I needed help and didn’t quite know what to do or where to turn! When I chose to make a new commitment to me and chose to walk into 2023 with a better mindset, that’s when the cards fell into place! While life has been a storm for me these last 2 years, GymClass specifically Shannon was the calm in that storm! When I took a chance on me…and my health again! I had been able to do this journey on my own! But I needed more for me! I joined the 12 week program shortly after the new year. While losing a some physical weight would be great…what I ended up doing is losing the weight…emotional that is…in between my ears! I focused on my mindset…my morning routine…settling into this each and every day until it became second nature and something I missed when I didn’t stick to my routine! Let me tell you that Shannon provides the tools, the tough love, the kindness and compassion we all need! But you know what? I had to do the work…the hard…challenging…liberating work! Invested in me! And it’s the absolute best gift I could give myself…my health…my life! And it’s spilling into so many other aspects of my life! It’s not perfect far from it! But have Shannon by my side and the amazing community of women is the best! If you’re hesitant…don’t be! You’re worth it and so much more! Thank Shannon! I’m truly blessed to have you in my life and have your support! You’re the gift that I never knew I needed until I did!
Stef!! <3 Thank you so much for the kind words about the program & me... I am so blessed that you took the leap and joined. You've been such an inspiration to us all & I'm so proud of you for really doing the deep work this time. I know it's been tough but you are an example to us all of what showing up for yourself, despite life's setbacks, can look like. Love you!
Fantastic experience: GymClass is it Such a supportive and encouraging environment to begin a fitness journey! The women are incredible… Supportive… Fun!!!! It’s just an incredible group of women led by an Amazingly engaging Coach, Shannon! Get your a$s to GymClass!!!!
Thanks Leslie! I'm so lucky that you are such a big part of making the community welcoming and supportive <3
Fantastic experience: Wanted to give a shout out to the 12 week program I just completed with Shannon .. i know she is offering a new program moving forward which is going to be even better but wanted to share my great news! For the first time in a long time , I was excited to go to the doctor . I saw him just one week before I started the program to run all my tests …. Needless to say- I knew they were not going to be great but I wanted a true marker of where I started this journey . I went back on Monday of this week- so 3 ½ months later and was just amazed! 31 lbs gone which is amazing but even more importantly - my blood pressure was with in range, my cholesterol went from 189 to 128, my triglycerides went from 127 to 78, my ldl cholesterol went from 121 to 72 and my non hdl cholesterol went from 145 to 88….. I won’t need any medications and with continued excercise and weight loss they will only continue to get better! I am so proud of myself and I made an appt for 3 months from now to see my continued progress …. I also want to note- I didn’t do this by going to the gym . I don’t live close enough to take Shannon’s classes so I did this with walking, my own strength training and all the tools that Shannon Dechaine teaches in her weekly meetings . I know these are lifetime changes I can manage and can’t wait to see where I am 6 months from now !
Amazing results Krishelle!! So, so proud of you for always showing up for yourself, giving yourself grace when you needed it, sticking with the program & being a great support and contributor to this community ❤️
Fantastic experience: As a woman, it's empowering to have a dedicated space where I can focus on my health and well-being without any distractions or discomfort. MyGymClass offers that and so much more. I wholeheartedly recommend this all-women's gym to any woman seeking a supportive, uplifting, and results-driven fitness community.
Thank you Sylvia!! Love, love, love having you in class... you always make it fun & are so welcoming to anyone new & starting their journey at GymClass. AND i'm so proud of your progress!! You're like an old pro at this point!! <3
Fantastic experience: There is so much I could say about why Gym Class is such a special gym! It is a woman owned gym that is geared toward creating a safe space for women (and girls through the teen classes offered during summer!) who may either be new to strength training or returning to it with the opportunity to work with an amazing trainer, Shannon! Shannon has created a wonderful judgement free community at Gym Class, both in-person and online, where members can really show up for themselves and each other and find the support that you just can’t find at big box gyms. Gym Class is an investment in your health and fitness that can truly change your life. Thanks to Shannon’s encouragement and programs, I am now lifting heavier than I ever even believed that I could, I feel strong, I feel good, and I have a new found love and appreciation for my body and what it can do!
You are amazing Gen!! You're such an inspiration to the other ladies at the gym when it comes to lifting heavier and I can't thank you enough for that. And you're an amazing cheerleader for everyone in this community! So proud of you and how far you've come - mind and body!
Fantastic experience: My experience at this woman-owned, women-focused small gym has been nothing short of transformative. Strength training has become my newfound passion after years of inactivity, and this gym has provided me with the perfect environment to embark on my personal fitness journey. GymClass is an empowering oasis where I recharge, connect with other women, and leave each workout feeling accomplished and empowered. If you're a mom like me looking to reclaim your strength and embark on a personal fitness journey, I highly recommend joining Shannon's GymClass ASAP! It has been a life-changing experience for me, and I'm confident it will be for you too.
Samaanta!! Thank you so much for the kind words! I am SO proud of your progress but also your total commitment to yourself and your health. It's been truly impressive & inspirational to us all! We are lucky to have you in the community <3
Fantastic experience: I’ve been working out here since last November. While I don’t ever look forward to working out, I do enjoy the company when coming to this gym. I especially love how I feel after a workout. Each class has different workouts, so you never know what you will be working on that day. Shannon and Gen are very welcoming, friendly and encouraging. Not intimidating at all at this gym. They will point out when I am doing something wrong, and they offer alternative workouts for those that can’t do certain exercises. I usually do the night class because of my work schedule, but they also offer a lot of morning classes and online classes too. I would definitely try out a trial class and check this place out. Highly recommend this place!
Thank you so much Angela!! It's been a pleasure having you in the community and getting to know you in class!
Fantastic experience: Shannon Dechaine is a fabulous coach! I have been enjoying following along with her online classes, but recently had the opportunity to go in person and that's even better. Each time I come away having pushed myself just that little bit harder, thanks to her encouragement. She's also a beautiful human being who's created a strong supportive community. You will grow more than just your strength and fitness!
YOU are a beautiful human - truly!! Thank you for your generous words Nivedita. I so appreciate all your contributions to our community - you make everyone feel so supported and valued <3 And I love your thoughtful questions, feedback and the fact that you really listen to all my dumb stories on the zoom workouts ;)
Fantastic experience: Shannon is amazing! She encourages growth, she pushes me to improve and is such a positive force. Shannon works with your own personal fitness goals while being the best motivator and cheerleader along the way. I can’t imagine being trained by anyone else, she’s the best!
Helen!! You are such a sweetheart, thank you! I always look forward to our sessions & am so proud of you for getting outside your comfort zone. Keep up the great work :)
Fantastic experience: Shannon has the most incredible energy. I love being in the same space as her, and love getting trained by her.
