Fitness & Gyms in Hockessin, DE

“A friend asked me to join her for a class at CrossFit Reconstructed back in 2017. I’ll be honest, I was totally intimidated. I thought I had to be able to lift heavy. I thought I had to be a certain caliber of athlete to do CrossFit. I thought I would stand out like a sore thumb. I thought I wouldn’t be able to keep up. After more “coercion” from my friend, I went. I found that everything is scalable to my own personal ability. I found that the coaches ran a great group class that pushes ur ability but while also helping the individual. I found that I wasn’t just capable, but I found myself getting stronger and more fit.
And I also found a community where I’ve met some of my closest friends who push me to be better every day.
Side note: I recently left CrossFit for about 5 months to try another gym. That was short lived as I realized there’s truly nothing like it here. #lifer
Attending class is one of my favorite hours of the day, mentally, physically, emotionally. Highly recommend!”

“I had the best experience at Anytime Fitness and with their staff. One of the owners, Tony, was so kind and understanding when I got a new job that gives me access to a full gym and wanted to cancel my Anytime membership. Ritzy, a personal trainer, is always so welcoming and facilitates the most comfortable space to workout! The time I spent at Anytime was filled with efficient and updated equipment, an uplifting environment, and a clean space. Everyone is welcoming and respectful. I highly recommend this gym to anyone interested in a local, community focused fitness center.”

“Catalyst Fitness has been an amazing experience for my kids! They are 8 years old and take part in Cat's drop in classes for young kids. Not only are they getting exercise (an entire hour!), but I also see such an increase in confidence in them. I think I have 2 CrossFit kids on my hands ❤️”

“Snap Fitness is a great gym. The equipment is always clean and they have everything you need. The people are nice and the owner is really great and helpful. I always feel comfortable working out here. Highly recommend!”

“My friend convinced me to attend a class here when they were still in Newark, and I've come even more often now that they've moved to Hockessin. The studio is bright and spacious, with a variety of acro apparata.I would say that most of this studio's classes are more focused on beginners than experienced circus aerialists. The beginner classes are a good start for people who are kind of easing back into fitness after a break or who want to start something that doesn't involve bouncing or jumping. Most of the classes focus on sling or hammock low to the ground, though they do offer silks and lyra. They also offer bungee classes, which are fun and an intense cardio workout (though it takes a few sessions for the harnesses to stop pinching.)If someone I knew wanted to try aerial acrobatics but was concerned that her strength and fitness wasn't good enough yet, I'd feel pretty confident recommending this place as a place to build that strength.”

“First person in the gym this morning walk down the steps to the weight room and the first thing I see is a pallet of all new rogue training plates. HAC has really stepped up their game lately with the millions of dollars they have put into the club and I am extremely pleased. Most of the equipment in the weight room is new and the things that aren't I'm hoping they consider upgrading in the future (new benches) Overall so so pleased with my experience. Everyone is extremely friendly.”
