Fantastic experience: I’m absolutely in love with Grit! I started at grit after a tough break up. Grit has been so much more than just a gym. It’s given me community and everyone pushes me to be my best self. I’ve NEVER been apart of a fitness group/gym/sports team, that is as supportive as this crew. You never feel like an outsider because the grit fam is so inviting. If you’re thinking about trying it out, just do it already!!!

Fantastic experience: GRIT is the place to go if you want to find not just a place to workout but a place to be surrounded by a strong community of women. The variety of classes — the music — the amazing instructors — they’re all reasons to come, but the reason to stay is to be able to be a part of a group that inspires you to challenge yourself. I found GRIT by chance 4 years ago and have never regretted it to the point when we were looking to buy a house, I’d map how far it was to my nearest GRIT. I’ve also enjoyed the ways the community has expanded during pandemic with more groups like book club! And excited to participate more! Also gotta love a place that in the 20 minutes from when you wake up early enough for a 6 AM class on your birthday and decided okay yes I’m doing this, they find the time to put up this:

Thanks Brit and GRIT Team!!

Fantastic experience: I finally found a gym worth committing to and that makes me look forward to showing up! I love the variety of classes that Grit Fitness offers and how flexible their schedule is. Most studios offer classes during times that are not compatible with 9-6 jobs- except Grit!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love GRIT! I was so excited to find a gym that had such a large variety of classes and that was conveniently located throughout the city. However this gym has exceeded my expectations! First, my workout routine is never boring. There are so many different classes to choose from that can accomdate whatever fitness goals you have. I love dance club cardio, step and body sculpt/stretch! All the classes are high energy, challenging yet sooo much fun. Secondly, the locations and class times make it convenient to any schedule. Thirdly, the community is amazing. The instructors are so encouraging and friendly. You can tell they love being there and want to help you have a good experience too. I've always felt so welcomed no matter which studio I attend. There is no place like Grit and I am so happy I found it!

Fantastic experience: Grit is SO much more than a gym - it’s a community of strong, dedicated women. If you are looking for fitness studio where you can find 1) variety (from spin to strength to stretching classes), 2) unconditional support and encouragement from instructors and other members, and 3) a judgement-free space to challenge yourself and try something new… look no further because it doesn’t get better than Grit!

Fantastic experience: Been coming to GRIT since 2016! It’s a very empowering gym setting, the instructors don’t let you quit - but rather than just give you encouragement, they will get right next to you and workout with you until you finish your set! And all the women cheer you on when it gets tough. It’s a really empowering environment, if you are looking for a safe space to workout…this is it!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been with GRIT for 2 years now. I cannot imagine a life without it in Dallas anymore. It is more than just a place where you can get your workout classes in. GRIT fosters community, connections, and love. It makes you mentally stronger. The message and reason instructors voice daily in classes becomes a mantra and can bring you up no matter which life situation one faces. At GRIT you can make friends and get to know people with the same interests as yours through community groups. Over the last year I even have taken the courage to go through instructor training and am now trying to help others to self-revolutionize. Thank you Brit for all that you give to this community.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality When I first came to grit in July, I was nervous because fitness studios can be intimidating, but everyone is so nice and welcoming. I love all of the variety of classes and the instructors are so sweet, helpful, and fun. It really feels like home, which I’ve never said that about a gym before. lol

Fantastic experience: What can I say, I’m a GRITFAM girl through & through! This place has my heart & I’m honored that I’m part of a community that is all about empowerment & encouragement. The variety of formats allows for everyone to have their own workout flavor. Each instructor has a different style & there is something that fits everyone’s speed. There’s no other gym/studio like GRIT, many try to copy but only this place has all the right vibes.

Fantastic experience: I love Grit! I started out a year and a half ago when I was feeling like I needed to make a change during the pandemic. Not only did I build muscle and become physically stronger…I mentally became stronger too. The instructors push you to become your best self, encouraging you to also lift up your fellow neighbors along the way. I can’t recommend the studio and its community enough.

Fantastic experience: I randomly found The Grit through the Mind and Body App when looking for a workout session. What I did realize at the time, I found a second family. A family committed to promoting the positive well-being of physical and mental health. Grit offers a variety of classes that focus on cardio, aerobic, weight-training, and plyometric style workouts. The staff is awesome, well-diverse, and knowledgeable in teaching basic to advance regimen workouts. These classes are design for you to WORK but also have lots of FUN in the process! I highly recommend The Grit! You will find your place here and fit right in! I would love to have more later evening classes.

Fantastic experience: I was intimidated at first to try out Grit but everyone is so welcoming, the front desk assistants are always so positive and the instructors really know how to pump you up. The environment is so inclusive, I don’t have to feel embarrassed if I can’t do every exercise in front of everyone. Instructors offer modifications as needed and I’ve built up lots of strength and endurance over the past 4 months. I look forward to the music, lights, and other strong ladies in class. Grit is always a great time!

Fantastic experience: I've been at Grit since the beginning (7 years next month). Never thought I would workout consistently for 7 years. I've been to big gyms and never felt known or apart of a community. Grit is def an inclusive community and love how friendly everyone is. Some of my closest friends formed from a simple hello in class. If you need a gym home try Grit. I promise your life will be changed.

Fantastic experience: I have been to many gyms in the Dallas area and Grit Fitness is the best. I stay engaged and motivated because of the variety of classes offered and the daily positive affirmations. Grit has helped me develop consistent work out habits and confidence. It is so much more than just a place to work out. The community and culture is what makes Grit extraordinary! I truly feel a part of the strongest women in Dallas!
