Equinox Sports Club Washington, D.C.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of the SCLA since 2005 and it's definitely one of the best gyms in the area. This place has everything you need to keep yourself active from basketball to volleyball to swimming. People ask why I'm willing to pay so much to be a member and it's because the options are endless! Other benefits include their trainers as well as their classes. The trainers are very knowledgeable and the variety of classes allow you to find the workout you are looking for. It can't be all positive right? If I had to complain about anything it would have to be the fact that the locker rooms are extremely crowded, the showers never seem to be working right, and the shower amenities are lacking. Otherwise, this place is certainly as good as it gets!

Fantastic experience: I've been a member for just over 2 months. I find the staff friendly and the equipment is always clean. What sets Sports Club/LA apart from other gyms is the availability of group activities, I really enjoy Zumba and it's offered many times a week. In short I'm inspired to work out and I find this to be a motivating environment.

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym with tons of amenities: spa, sauna, steam room, lap pool, 4 squash courts, multiple yoga studios, spinning studio, 100,000 sqft of excellent gym space and new equipment. I use their wifi daily when working remotely. People and staff are very friendly. Highly recommended for a luxurious, daily gym.

Fantastic experience: Was a member of this location for about 3 months and took some training sessions with Corey Belin, which I really enjoyed! He listened to what I was looking to work on and coached me very well through out it. Form is very important to me and he was very attentive to this.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member since September 2022, referred by a friend for a massage (which was awesome!) and stayed for the salt water pool and the personal training. I have had personal training previously, but my trainer, Corey Bellin, has created an exceptional personalized program for me which is producing great mental and physical strength results. I now view my training time as the highlights of my week and an essential pillar of my success in 2023.

Fantastic experience: Great big location, lovely pool and locker room amenities.

Fantastic experience: Expensive

Fantastic experience: Great club and I have an awesome trainer. His name is Corey Belin, my body has changed tremendously since I trained with him. I have gotten a lot of compliments.

Fantastic experience: Great experience so far as I’ve only been a member for a few weeks. I worked out with Corey Belin today for the first time and it was an excellent session! He is very knowledgeable; I learned a lot and I’m looking forward to more PT sessions with Corey!!

Fantastic experience: Excellent!

Fantastic experience: The anti-pandemic coma treat! Best of the best. A visit is a retreat of the senses that leaves my body in great shape. Awesome weight floor, great classes, pool and deck!

Fantastic experience: wow. This place has thought of it all.. I'm really thinking about joining

Fantastic experience: You get what you pay for. This gym doesn’t make sense for everyone, no one is a better person for going here, and a free gym in an apartment building is going to do 90% of what Equinox does. But the other 10%? I actually look forward to working out more when there’s both a sauna and a steam room, a saltwater pool, luxury bath products, memory foam floors for stretching, and refrigerators full of Eucalyptus infused face towels. I go for the amenities, and then I just decide to work out because I’m already there.

Fantastic experience: You gotta book with George page he is the best trainer.

Fantastic experience: Best club and work out facility in the DC area! I love it!

Positive experience: Lots of amenities (pool, basketball court, steam room, sauna, soulcyle bikes...), good customer service, they constantly make improvements by adding products in the changing rooms like razors, hair ties, curling irons etc. What I don't like about it (apart from the price obviously): it's pretty much packed no matter what time you go which is annoying - wish they had a gadget in the app that would tell you how busy it is beforehand. Also, showers aren't always very clean.

Fantastic experience: A great staff and always clean club...all you could ask for in a gym.

Fantastic experience: Need bigger weights

Fantastic experience: The club has a pool with saltwater which is very convenient, covid safety is great, the thing why I didn't join is no natural lights in a building, which is very important for me personally.

Fantastic experience: Clean, staff professional and courteous, great equipment

Fantastic experience: Best gym in DC

Fantastic experience: Everything has opened back up - steam room, sauna, spa, showers - it's wonderful, they're back!!

Fantastic experience: High quality facility. Always clean and the equipment is top notch. Plenty of class offerings and various times throughout the day to fit all schedules.

Fantastic experience: Just joined and the place is so nice and the people are so willing to help me stay fit.

Fantastic experience: Love it here as usual - they take care of the place and most importantly, the people who works out here take care of the place and is clean and tidy and doesn’t trash the place. As usual, it’s the people who come to gyms that are the messy/dirty and this place doesn’t have those ppl - not that I saw anyways!

Positive experience: Scheduled a spa massage for my friend’s birthday at the Ritz Carlton/ Equinox (Foggy Bottom) location. The staff was courteous and the gym was clean. I was disappointed the spa does not offer champagne or snacks for special occasions, instead we were given “swag bags” full of gym advertisements and trinkets. If you’re not a guest at the hotel, arriving early is highly recommended (parking, etc). Must walk outside to enter Equinox since elevator access to spa is for guest only. My massage therapist was (Donna) friendly, courteous but chatty. I was not interested in talking about where I live, hearing comments about my “poor”elbows???? or asking why my shoulders were so tight during my 80 minute massage. Unfortunately , the massage was not good (technique). Ambiance was fair in the room, there was no soothing music or waterfall fountains, just dim lights, and a cool quiet room. The warm bed with robes was a nice perk.Not a fan of the massage lotion (dry paste) used, she had to continuously spend time stepping away from the massage to reapply. I’m giving this spa 3 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️since my girlfriend had a positive experience with her masseuse. In addition, they provided a quiet space and champagne glasses for us to enjoy our BYOB champagne post massage. Would not recommend, lacks luxury for the price. $500+ ( 2 people)

Fantastic experience: great trainers

Fantastic experience: Very good gym.

Fantastic experience: Definitely the BEST costumer service I've got, Leah the membership advisor was/have been absolutely AMAZING, she's the main reason I decided to join to Equinox, and so far so happy with the gym and all the access I have around the country.

Fantastic experience: Gym for you, a better placenin town

Fantastic experience: Great place for workout.

Fantastic experience: A great space to meet the movers and shakers of DC.

Fantastic experience: Amenities here are top notch

Fantastic experience: Great facilities and group fitness classes!

Fantastic experience: First fitness center i have ever been with a basketball hall inside. If you want a good personal trainer ask on the reception for the Bulgarian guy!

Fantastic experience: Big, clean, spacious. Has pretty much all the equipment one might need to lift, including multiple squat rack/platforms. The staff is super friendly, it usually doesn’t seem to get too insanely packed. You usually can’t say all that about most gyms in a big city

Fantastic experience: Excellent selection of classes

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff

Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed my time at Equinox gym!! The facilities are well kept (clean and organized) with many great amenities, including a pool, various multipurpose rooms, a smoothie bar, and sportswear store. Training staff was knowledgable about the equipment and were able to give me some good advice on improving my rowing technique. Staff was also very helpful.

Fantastic experience: Best Gym in DC ever! Molly is the best advisor and the kindest one :)

Fantastic experience: I was reading through the reviews and I happened to notice a very inaccurate review by “Rob Jones”. I think the club is very nice and the management is great. Sarah “The Membership Advisor” is very welcoming and kind!

Fantastic experience: Ding dong the witch is dead. Michele Roberts no longer works at Equinox DC. As a long-time member, I cannot overstate how happy I am. In my opinion, the level of her customer service was terrible, she made many members feel uncomfortable, she talked negatively about members in front of others, and was generally an awful person. I dreaded seeing her and did everything I could to avoid her. It was such a strange thing to come to a place I used to love and have hate fill my heart when I would see her. Now I can go back to just love. I will never know what took so long to cut that pussing boil out of the Equinox system, but better late that never! MAZEL!

Fantastic experience: I just went to my first reformer pilates class with Stella Hyde-Pironkova and feel like I discovered muscles I never knew needed attention before :) Stella was very attuned to focusing on my goals for the session and explained how to properly use the intimidating looking equipment. I’m sure that the other instructors are great as well but I would highly recommend working with Stella!

Fantastic experience: Worth the money. Great classes.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member for 10 years now. I've invested a lot of money and time there. SOME OF THE BEST MONEY I'VE EVER SPENT. Here's to 10 more years.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member for more than 13 years and have loved the transformation from SCLA to Equinox. The classes are more challenging and the gym is better run. I have finally done some personal training and have been very impressed with their relatively new trainer Donnie Wynn. He has a sixth sense when training and always has a challenging workout that builds on our previous session. I was surprised to learn that he is a new addition to Equinox and I'm certain he will rise to be one of their most popular trainers.

Fantastic experience: I feel at home here! Everyone is so friendly to me and the sense of community is so strong! It’s worth every penny!!!

Fantastic experience: A very clean and contemporary environment that is conducive to training. Staff is attentive and professional. Equipment is well maintained and placed logically within the space.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member for 11 years and I love it.

Fantastic experience: The classes.

Fantastic experience: Great place to workout on a regular basis. Great staff of trainers, teachers and conceirge to make a outstanding experience.

Fantastic experience: Excellent sports club with top-notch trainers and staff. They keep it clean and they have everything you'd want in a gym. I especially love the sauna and steam rooms after a good sweat sesh.
