Organically Grown Muscle - Tacoma (WA)

Diana Baltag Amazing fitness center! My young tennis athlete trains here with Shon, and we couldn’t be happier. The facility is clean, well-equipped, and designed for serious athletic development. Shon is incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and great with young athletes — he knows how to push them to improve while keeping training fun and motivating. We’ve seen huge progress in strength, endurance, and confidence. Highly recommend this place and Shon to any parent looking to help their athlete reach the next level!

Gretchen I have been a member of Kickhouse for almost two months now, it has been an amazing experience. There is a great variety of classes and the coaches are kind but will challenge you each session. Every member I have met has been positive, encouraging and helpful. Thank you Kickhouse, I look forward to continuing this fun and challenging journey!

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!

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!!

Chontay Went here for Step exercise. Atmosphere was great.

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.

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!

elizabeth lane Dropped in from SLC. Such a beautiful gym. So clean and had everything we needed and more. Highly recommend!

Dusty Dragon Solid gym equipment. Im not into the wimpy isolation machines but there isnt too many of those here. I love loading up those plates on the barbells and sending them for a ride! Got some good spots to do some heavy deadlifting. The foam rollers are nice to help out my sore body. Ill be back here over and over again.

Vee Muk I was looking for a local gym. Found YOUniversal. Came in for a consultant and walk through. Mike had me do a few workouts, be prepared on your consultation. It was a good mini workout before work. I signed up and happy to be training with Mike. I met the other Trainers Sandy and D. All super friendly and helpful. I really like the vibe of the gym and will keep going back. If youre reading this, book a consultation. :)
