HOTWORX - University Place, WA - University Place (WA)

rene jackson Where most people give planet fitness a bad name, Ive had a wonderful experience. I 35-year-old male was 295 pounds when I started going to the gym, just committing to doing 45 minutes a day. The staff is always super friendly. I have now officially weighed in this morning at 233 pounds. Losing sixty pounds In just ten and a half weeks. If I was to make one note, if they were to add a sauna room in here, it would increase the experience exponentially.

M. M. I have been training with Julie at Tacoma Pilates since the beginning of 2025 and the results have exceeded my expectations. Julie is an expert instructor who provides clear, hands-on guidance, tailors each session to your body limitations, and progresses workouts thoughtfully so you always feel challenged but never overwhelmed. The studio is bright, clean, and calming with well-maintained reformers and other Pilates equipment. Private sessions with Julie’s attentive coaching create a focused, supportive atmosphere where form and alignment are prioritized. Julie offers helpful, personalized modifications for injuries, and virtual sessions if needed. Since starting here I’ve gained core strength, improved posture, and noticed reduced lower-back tension and hip discomfort. Booking and communication are seamless, and the pricing feels fair for the level of instruction. I highly recommend Julie and this studio to anyone in Tacoma looking for knowledgeable, patient, and results-driven Pilates instruction.

JJ Calzadillas Great place for community college games! Brand newish gym. Great lighting, sounds, and atmosphere. Any student athlete that comes to TCC will not regret it!

jonathan brooke I love this place everything is great just wished pool was only saltwater and they would take out chlorine. It has a really strong smell and it’s really bad for your health. I love the steam room pool and the whole set up for the place

montai howard Over the past few years lve been on and off with my fitness journey. Wasnt able to find a gym that fit my needs. I found grit city and coach jeff and thats exactly what its been. We are in there working and pushing limits daily to make ourselves into the people we all want to be. Coach Jeff is very interactive and keeps everyone on pace. Its just like having a personal trainer during the duration of the work out. By far the best gym and the best atmosphere/community in any gym lve ever been in. Would recommend if youre serious about your goals!!

George Lopez Haven’t been to the gym in awhile but decided to try some gyms in the area but still ended up going to LA fitness. They’re always keeping things clean and have a sauna. Staff has been very helpful. Manpal and Kane always make it a great experience. Friendly and easy to talk to if I have any questions. Kane provided great input on my goals during the complimentary training session. This gym is also very pet friendly. I take my service dog Moose there with me and they are always very welcoming to him.

emmanuel kreuger Great gym. I’ve been coming here for about six months and I’m really happy with it. There’s plenty of equipment, it’s always clean, and the atmosphere is comfortable. Easy place to enjoy your workouts.

irene w Great yoga studio! Nothing in the area compares. It is unfussy, people are kind and supportive and all the instructors are awesome, especially, Peach!!

Julie Lehosky I am so appreciative of the level of expertise. The owner, Ellen leads with her passion for fitness, health & genuine concern for her clients. She wants all of us to reach our fulll fitness potential. Plus it’s a blast & it makes exercise fun again!

Ian Priestley I love working out at Hotworx, University Place! Ciara and the entire team are super friendly and welcoming. I usually come in for isometric workouts in the saunas but there are tons of other choices too... HIIT cycling, rowing and an exercise zone with weights and equipment. There is quite a variety and I appreciate the instructional videos get updated from time to time so that the programs never get stale. The app is great too, I just pick an open timeslot from my phone to book a session at any point in my day... super convenient!
