Brick Bodies

Fantastic experience: talented instructors and convenient location. I love the sauna and the morning classes!!

Positive experience: This is a good-very good gym which is well maintained and fairly up to date. I've been to, or belonged to a large portion of the gyms in the city itself and several outside and Brick Bodies is probably the best gym within the city limits factoring in price, cleanliness, equipment and management overall. The gym has about 10-12(roughly) power racks, a Life Fitness large Cable Jungle, A set of Life Fitness and Hoist Equipment combos alongside a very good cardio area which is fairly standard for decent corporate gyms. Overall the locker rooms are well-maintained and equipment if broken is fixed promptly. A few things to improve on are the lack of a few machines - No Hip Thrust, No T-Bar Row (Chest-supported), No Hack Squat, a too-small Dumbbell area and some other quibbles. For some reason the management bought a bunch of Matrix Treadmills which was not a great decision. They did a decent if not great job in selecting the machines which is typical but not a huge deal overall. They would do well in replacing the Hoist Leg Curl with something else and of course there are a bunch of redundant Lat Pulldowns instead of other alternatives. Still the Life Fitness pieces are mostly good and the Hoist ones very average. They also have the Plate-Loaded Hammer Strength Flat/Incline, OHP and Lat-Row machines. Medicore pieces but good enough all the same. Another classic corporate gym mistake is the inclusion of only one (fixed path) smith machine. These are very popular and there should be at least two in a gym of this size and popularity. Some nice features of this gym are four Stairmasters, the supply of long ropes on the cable stack which somehow seem to not be stolen as they are elsewhere. The gym is aesthetically elegant and has the best lighting of almost any gym I've been to which is saying something. Inclusion of the Rogue Fatpad Bench is a nice touch and the management didn't cheap out on the plates which deserves recognition. Overall this is easily the best gym in the city by value, pace the UA performance center downtown which suffers from paid parking. The rotunda has a huge garage with four hours of free parking which means I've not paid a dime for parking even once. A+ here. If you live anywhere but the Eastern part of the city within proximity to Exile or Fed-Hill (traffic) then I highly recommend Brick Bodies. Overall rating 85/100

Fantastic experience: Locker rooms are always clean. The staff is always friendly and professional.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! So clean, friendly, and not packed. Austin is also an incredible trainer and got me back into a normal workout routine!

Positive experience: I love these gyms but it is ABSOLUTELY wild that there are no towels at all at Rotunda. Like can we please get towels at this location so I don’t have to keep saying “crap I forgot a towel now I can’t shower”.

Fantastic experience: Cat is an incredible personal trainer, highly recommend!!!

Fantastic experience: This post is to say thank you to Darius at BB the Rotunda location. Darius I very welcoming informed and knowledgeable. He made sure all my concerns and questions were answered and even signed me up for zumba my first week as a BB member. Great job Darius!!!!!!

Fantastic experience: Brick Bodies is a great local gym. Chloe signed me up and she was incredibly helpful.

Fantastic experience: Had a small chance to come into the gym. Considering my options for the future but Chloe helped me out feeling comfortable here!

Fantastic experience: I met with Chloe there earlier this year, she was so cheerful and helpful. I’m looking forward to coming in and checking you guys out again!

Fantastic experience: I ❤️ KP! I was very reluctant and intimidated to go to a personal trainer but I had a mountain climbing trip to train for and signed up with him. I made it to 19,341 feet and know his training helped me get there! KP is super focused, knowledgeable and patient. He always customizes my sessions for my joint challenges and many injuries— but I’m always improving. I recommend him to anyone at any level of fitness!

Fantastic experience: After recently moving from Australia, I wanted to find a gym where I felt comfortable and could settle into a routine. I looked at a few other gyms, and I am so glad I found Brick Bodies! Chloe was absolutely brilliant to help with the sign up process, and she always checks in with me when she sees me at the gym. They have a great range of class offerings as well as a huge gym! The staff are friendly, and I love Christina’s Body Pump classes!! Would absolutely recommend Brick Bodies to anybody!!

Fantastic experience: Brick Bodies is by far the best gym in Baltimore! It provides a welcoming environment with professional and friendly staff peppered throughout. It also has friendly and considerate members, as I swear everyone wipes down the equipment after each use. If you’re already a Brick Body member, be sure to take advantage of the many classes that are included with your membership. Example, if you want to work on your core and get an effective total body workout, download the Brick Bodies App today and sign up for Nan’s Barre class. She’ll help you engage muscles you didn’t realize you even had. If you need to enhance your Mind, Body and Spirit, sign up for Amy’s, Abir, Danielle, Katie and/or Ariana yoga class. They’ll take care of both your physical and mental health, all within a comfortable, free from distractions and calming atmosphere. #namaste Also, if you’re looking for an excellent personal trainer, ask for Andrew K, Melanie, Verconia and /or Keith. Not only will they help you reach all of your goals, they’ll also have you back in your beach body before the season ends. So, if you’re NOT a Brick Body member yet, what are you waiting on? Stop by the best gym in Baltimore — nestled in The Rotunda just left of The Icon — and enjoy exchanging pleasantries with the friendliest front desk associates in all the land. Not only will David, Jeff, Christian, Destiny and Austin greet you warmly, they’ll also look after your every need and answer any questions and/concerns you may have. Peace.

Fantastic experience: Because of David at the front desk He always great you when entering the gym and a warm goodbye when leaving the gym Thank you David for your continuous care!

Fantastic experience: Chloe is the best!!!

Fantastic experience: Zack and David at the Rotunda location are the best! They always make an effort to get to know everyone in the community

Fantastic experience: I love brick bodies. I have been coming to this gym for a year, and it’s fantastic. The staff at the front desk always greets me with a pleasant smile and they are very helpful. A special mention to David; He is very kind and asks me how I’m doing whenever I enter the gym. His friendly demeanor makes me feel welcome. The gym is also clean and well-lit. I would definitely recommend Brick bodies as one of the best gyms in the Hampden area.

Fantastic experience: LOVE THIS GYM! Cannot say enough good things about this place. I've had a dozen memberships elsewhere and I've found my tribe here. David always greets me with a smile at the desk and the vibe is always positive and welcoming. Won't go anywhere else.

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy the weekly yoga classes. The customer service at the front desk is very helpful. Jeff and David are always very courteous. Thank you for your service.

Fantastic experience: Brick bodies rotunda is my favorite gym in Baltimore! Shout out to David who always greets my friend and I with a warm and encouraging smile.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I have been going to Brick Bodies for several years. In particular we were extatic when Brick Bodies opened a location near where we live at the Rotunda in Baltimore City in late 2017. The staff are super friendly when we come in. David at the Rotunda location learns each member's name and cares to try to get to know each one of us, which I would guess be over a thousand members in this location. My wife enjoys the classes and weight machines. I enjoy the weight machines. We come out of Brick Bodies tired, knowing we had a great workout experience every time!

Fantastic experience: Great gym! David is always there for me when I need a spot.

Fantastic experience: Great workout classes and trainers!

Fantastic experience: I love everything about this gym! The front desk staff and personal trainers are the most kind, knowledgeable, and genuine people. 10/10 would recommend.

Fantastic experience: David is a great motivator, !!!

Fantastic experience: Austin and David are the best. The gym has great equipment, amazing staff, and a convenient location.

Fantastic experience: The Brick Bodies at the Rotunda in Hampden is the best! Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. David’s the best and always greets us kindly at the door along with all of the other staff!

Fantastic experience: Switched from LA fitness to here and it’s made all the difference in my health and gym routine. The staff are so nice and the facilities are always immaculate. Machines don’t stay broken for more than a few days and I’ve never felt that it’s too crowded to have a good workout. Plus I love the included workout classes with the awesome instructors.

Fantastic experience: Great experience. David Is very kind and always willing to help.

Fantastic experience: David at the front desk is the best! He is forever, smiling for everyone, always has a great attitude, always down to help with whatever you need, a true delight! 10 out of 10 yelp review!

Fantastic experience: Lish for personal training and Franchesca’s dance party class are great!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym! The staff at the front desk are always welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere is wonderful, with everyone smiling and ready to assist. David consistently goes above and beyond to be helpful and friendly. Jeanne-Michele Vigna and Bryan Billings are outstanding instructors, and I thoroughly enjoy attending their classes.

Fantastic experience: Great gym! Friendly staff, clean facilities, well-maintained equipment. Convenient location with an adjacent parking lot. Not the biggest gym around, but equipment has all bases covered. While I haven’t done any of the classes, they seem to have a great variety.

Fantastic experience: The staff at BB Rotunda is always friendly and helpful. I love the classes and the instructors who teach them. David always greets me by name with a smile and makes me feel welcome!

Fantastic experience: It is always such a delight to come to Brick Bodies and see David smiling behind the front desk. Sometime that is the motivation I need to get into the gym.

Fantastic experience: I love the community at the Rotunda! I started going to that Brick Bodies location after Belvedere closed and I love it here! A big thank you to the crew at the front desk who always psych me up for my workouts!

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym! Clean, nice equipment, great clases and David at the front is the absolute best! He always makes coming to the gym better!

Negative experience: I received notification this morning that I have been indefinitely barred from all Brick Bodies locations. My membership at this particular establishment spanned a mere three months before discord began to manifest, both within the gym environment and among its staff, subsequent to my viral ascension on TikTok, which led to my recognition by other gym members. The incident last Friday nearly escalated into a full-scale altercation. I found myself the target of harassment by three individuals. Despite notifying the staff, no action was taken, compelling me to resort to reprimanding two of the aggressors vociferously and departing the gym posthaste. The origin of the conflict lay in the egregious monopolization of the leg press machines by a couple, who occupied them for an excessive duration exceeding 45 minutes. The situation further deteriorated when the boyfriend, prompted by his girlfriend, confronted me after I gestured contemptuously at her. The girlfriend, in turn, enlisted a third party by falsely claiming the machine was available while I was engaged in a discussion with gym personnel. This third individual refused to vacate the machine, and the staff's refusal to intervene forced my exit. To the proprietors of Brick Bodies, permit me to elucidate several critical points you seem to overlook: 1. I am a Level 5 Google reviewer. 2. As a celebrity, I possess substantial influence, capable of significantly impacting your entire business's bottom line should this conflict persist. 3. I am a U.S. Army Veteran; our resolve is unwavering, and we do not capitulate to anyone. This will serve as my final communiqué on the matter. Should you choose to prolong this dispute, I am prepared to engage further. Residents of Maryland, be forewarned: this gym does not prioritize the safety of its patrons, nor does it adequately accommodate celebrities. Additionally, their prohibition of recording, a policy they fail to disclose to new members, is utterly nonsensical in the year 2024.

Fantastic experience: Brick Bodies Rotunda is one of the best gyms in Baltimore. Special shout out to David, who is one of the friendliest and professional staff members I have met at a gym.

Fantastic experience: Dave for president

Positive experience: I love Brick Bodies Rotunda! I love the city chic vibe of the club, the convenient free parking, the amenities surrounding the club, the schedule of classes and the amazing staff. One who stands out for his warm and friendly demeanor is David!

Fantastic experience: I recommend Brick Bodies- Rotunda. I've been coming to this Rotunda location since they opened around 2017 or 2018. The facility is clean and well lit. Parking includes a parking lot and a free parking garage. They have a large variety of classes and equipment, including free weights. Also, the staff is friendly. Big shout out to David who is professional and always makes you feel welcome to the gym, even if you're having a down-day. His encouraging words peps you up and gets you through your workout. Thanks David!!

Fantastic experience: Brick Bodies Rotunda is awesome! The classes and instructors are great, I'm addicted, and the front desk staff are so friendly and helpful, shout out to David and Kellee!

Fantastic experience: Great gym with very friendly staff. David and Zack at the front desk are great!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Brick Bodies for a few years now and it’s great! Highly recommend to others in the Hampden area. David at the front desk is very friendly and helpful, as is the rest of the staff!

Fantastic experience: David and the front office crew are the BEST! I love my classes at Rotunda and also love the trainers!! ❤️

Fantastic experience: Great gym, always smile's at the front desk,Austin, David and team always make you feel welcome!

Fantastic experience: Been a member over 5 years. Great staff. David’s been a familiar face the whole time. Always great to see him.

Fantastic experience: My experience at Brick Bodies Rotunda has been outstanding. My interaction with the staff is always pleasant. I'm always greeted by David, Zach, Alex or any other staff member working upon my arrival. They always greet me with a smile, ask how I'm doing and tell me to have a great workout. Austin does an outstanding job managing the gym. He's always helpful and pays close attention to memeber/staff needs and condition of the equipment. Just today I observed him walking around the gym checking on the status of the equipment to ensure it’s working properly. I have a membership at another gym because of my out-of-state travel and all I can say is that the upkeep of Brick Bodies along with the friendliness of the staff sets the bar for how a gym should be managed. Keep up the great work!!

Fantastic experience: Thank you David, for always greeting me and my family with a smile! We love Brick Bodies!

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym in the city. The crowd is motivated and the staff are super friendly and helpful. David always says hey to us when we walk in!

Fantastic experience: Always enjoy my experience at Brick Bodies Rotunda. David at the front desk is the best!

Fantastic experience: David is the best manager！

Fantastic experience: Always friendly and helpful. Zach and David are awesome!

Fantastic experience: Zack Always friendly!!, and welcoming!

Fantastic experience: I enjoy taking Pilate and Barre classes here! Great all around gym and the front desk staff are so welcoming.

Fantastic experience: I love Brick Bodies at Rotunda! There’s a variety of classes, the staff is very friendly and the hours are convenient.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, staff is super friendly

Fantastic experience: I’m really happy with the Rotunda Brick Bodies. It’s clean and well maintained. And above all, the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful (special shoutout to David!).

Positive experience: The front desk personnel are always pleasant upon entry to the facility.

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy working out here, rarely have to wait for equipment despite there being enough others around to keep the atmosphere lively. The front desk team are helpful and always welcome me like a friends when I arrive.

Fantastic experience: Working out here has been such a change in my health and fitness journey. I’ve tried a lot of gyms in the Hampton area, but this is the one I’ve stuck with the longest because of all of the things they have to offer. For me, there’s a lot of incentives that come with this gym including the the free two personal trainer sessions, unlimited group workouts (with the exception of a few hardcore classes), and very reasonable hours. I work as a rotating-shift nurse so being able to go to the gym before or after has been such a treat. Plus there was a discount for health care professionals. This is the smallest gym of the three, but it comes with the best personalities! Since they’re smaller, I’ve gotten to know a lot of the staff and they’re so supportive of my journey and goals. A lot of the staff can work out after their shift or during their breaks and I’ve noticed they’re always helping others around them and are open to questions and tips. It’s true, there’s no pool, towel service, or massage beds but my membership allows me to go to the other gyms if I ever really wanted those services (which I never have). Hopefully by the end of this year I’ll have that brick body!

Fantastic experience: Jeff and David and everyone at Rotunda Brick Bodies is the best! There is no better gym

Fantastic experience: From the moment I walked in to Brick Bodies as a guest of a friend, David did a wonderful job at making sure I felt welcomed. The facility is beautiful, clean and the equipment was in great condition!

Fantastic experience: I love brick bodies! The staff is very friendly and it’s a great environment to come and get a workout in peacefully. My all time favorite gym.

Fantastic experience: Brick Bodies is where I hang out, dance, cry, lift, pray, stretch, and make new friends!

Fantastic experience: The Rotunda location has been a great club for me. It's always immaculately clean and has all of the equipment I need. Dave at the front desk is the nicest dude in the world, too — he always says hi and always helps me out when I forget the combination to my locker!

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym ever! David is best! He is always friendly

Fantastic experience: Great gym, great people, great environment, open to all, from Beginners to Expert. Enough equipment for everyone at one time. With recovery stations.

Fantastic experience: Great facility with a great location, always greeted by David when i get here. Friendly staff all around.

Positive experience: I love the front desk staff! They rock!

Fantastic experience: The front desk is very friendly, and the trainers are amazing!

Fantastic experience: David and Jeff are always the highlight of my visit! They make sure to always make everyone attending the gym feel welcome and comfortable. BB at The Rotunda is clean, safe, and overall just the best!!

Fantastic experience: All of the staff are extremely friendly. David can alway be seen with a friendly smile training or working at the front desk. Great location to workout then grab a bite to eat.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, the staff is always very nice, helpful and welcoming. Dave especially.

Fantastic experience: Erin really goes the extra mile to make you feel welcome as does everyone at BB.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in the area! David at the front desk always has a smile on his face. He’s the man!

Fantastic experience: Love my gym, Andy my trainer, and David always with a friendly greeting! Sometimes I get jealous of a few of the extra doodads at the Timonium spot, but I generally prefer the intimacy + vibe of the Rotunda spot!

Fantastic experience: Everyone’s great from Erin to David at the front seat very friendly and makes me smile. Trainer Benny helped to get me started on my fitness goal.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of the brick bodies at the rotunda for about 3 years. I’ve never considered another gym. The size and layout of the gym is perfect. The lighting is perfect and the staff always makes it feel like a family reunion when o come through. I have a gym in my apartment complex and I STILL won’t cancel my membership . I’ve definitely had times where I felt better here than I did any other time of the day.

Fantastic experience: David is always super kind and helpful! :)

Fantastic experience: We loveee brick bodies rotunda! It’s a nice, clean facility in a great shopping center with the most friendly staff, fun classes, and all the amenities you need. All the trainers and instructors are so nice and I’m always greeted with smiling faces at the front desk. Chloe is especially helpful and has made my experience coming to BBRo so wonderful - definitely an integral part of my health journey!!!!!!

Fantastic experience: Best gym in upper Baltimore

Positive experience: This gym has been a mixed bag for me. The pros: its clean, availability of machine is easy even during busy evening hours, nice clean locker rooms. The cost is reasonable. The cons: the quality and variety of classes is a real bummer. The vast majority of classes are dancing classes and frankly not much of a workout. There are no HIIT or boot camp style classes in the evening hours. The barre classes are always full and I’ve never been able to get into one of these classes in over 2yrs. The cardio machine area is stuffy and there is no air circulation. While the first floor is nice and cool, the heat rises and makes for an uncomfortable cardio workout. I’ve asked the management for fans in this area and have not seen any results. There are no kettlebells or free weights upstairs. While the there certainly are pros, the cons have me considering other gyms.

Fantastic experience: Very nice gym set up, and the classes are fantastic

Fantastic experience: Sincerely enjoyed the Zumba class with Tracey! She is a very kind individual. Her love for music and Zumba dancing is inspiring! Love her classes. So very pleased that I have been a member of Brick Bodies for years!

Positive experience: Nice gym with plenty of machines. Group classes can get crowded. Some of the equipment need TLC.

Fantastic experience: I have received phenomenal support since joining Brick Bodies Rotunda. For the first time, I am reaching my goals of gaining strength and avoiding injury. Ronnie Samuel is the gifted personal trainer who crafted a path forward for me at this club. I thank her and the management team who steered me in her direction.

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy working with my personal trainer, Dominus Blue. He has great energy and a motivating, positive attitude. He listens to me and cheers me on every session. He respects my personal goals and accommodates my specific preferences. He provides clear guidance and teaches me how to use all of the gym equipment. I have learned a lot from him. I am making good progress toward my goals and feel proud of myself after each workout.

Fantastic experience: This is a great gym to go to if you want to improve your strength and health, but the best part of Brick Bodies is the amazing team! Dominus Blue is a fantastic trainer - he is knowledgeable, inspiring, and fun. He has helped me get stronger and helped me understand how to take care of my health and reach my goals. I feel so lucky to have Dominus as my trainer!

Fantastic experience: I've very much enjoyed my membership at Brick Bodies. There are plenty of choices for classes, personal training, and self-guided workouts. The staff are wonderful. They're always helpful and friendly. A special shout out to Austin, one of the personal trainers. His open-hearted approach, knowledge, motivational skills, and general demeanor are like nothing I've experienced before. If you're looking for personal training, I can't recommend him enough.

Fantastic experience: My partner and I have been loving Brick Bodies Rotunda, especially the personal training by Austin Lating. His upbeat and positive attitude keeps us motivated and excited to keep coming back. He is extremely knowledgeable, accepting, fun and perfectly balances education and a great workout.

Fantastic experience: I Always enjoy the experience of going to Brick Bodies. The environment is inviting, the staff always Friendly and professional. I am an early bird and my trainer Tony is amazing. I also love the Zumba class on Thursday and Saturday conducted by Tracey.

Fantastic experience: Tony is an incredible trainer. After an injury and a few months of PT, I started working with Tony to improve my strength. I’ve been working with him for about a year and have learned so much about weightlifting and strength training, and through his coaching I’m in better shape than I’ve ever been

Negative experience: OK gym but not worth the hassle. I have similar feedback to some other posts I see one here. I went to cancel my membership on 3/15 at 8:30am. I was told that, because this was a billing day, I would be billed not only for the fee for today (which would include use of the gym for the rest of the month) but I would also need to pay again in 15 days for time they knew I would not be using the facility. They stated that this is in their membership agreement, which- fine- though a reasonable person assumed if the cancelation policy says to cancel 15 days in advance, they would call and cancel 15 days prior to the end use of the facility. This is their way of squeezing the final payment from customers who already have invested plenty of money using the facility. Recommend paying close attention and checking out other options.

Positive experience: Nice gym, but VERY lacking compared to the Timonium location. Is this the red-headed step child of the company? The water fountain is broken 30% of the time

Positive experience: Good gym. Missing a few machines I would love but good clean gym. Worth the money and I would recommend.

Positive experience: I'd give it 5 stars but it's missing the towels. They use to have towels, other locations have towels. It's the same amount of usage space as before. It could be they found it easier without doing towels. I miss the towels.

Fantastic experience: Cole is the best employee you have, great customer service ! I’m definitely joining just because of him! Today was my first day at this gym I enjoyed it !

Negative experience: I’ve been a member for over a year. There is still no towel service despite many promises for the service to return. I understand the challenge with the facility, but Brick Bodies has additional locations. Do the other locations have towel washing capabilities? If instructors and members travel between the Rotunda and Padonia, I imagine a van full of towels could too? I’d love to give 5 stars based on the instructors! I love all the instructors—They’re the best! Classes make all the malarkey or belonging to a gym worth it. Dear management, Please give us towels!
