The music is fun, the coaches are awesome, and the workout is effective. I’ve been a member for over a year and it’s been a terrific experience!

The “theory” behind OrangeTheory really works for me!! I’ve been a member since they opened 5+ years ago and I feel so much healthier. I am stronger, without the crazy bulk and my cardio fitness has drastically improved. I run 5ks faster than my friends now where prior to joining I absolutely hated running. Monitoring my heart rate and overall physical output during class truly helps me maintain my exertion while oddly simultaneously somewhat pushing me to gradually do just a bit more. Tracking my results is incredibly fun too…I’m known to brag about how many splat points I got! I don’t know how they do it, but every workout is different with just the right amount of challenge mixed in. Coaches and staff are incredibly supportive and encouraging. It’s impossible to finish a workout and not feel happy with your success. I honestly love OrangeTheory Fitness works outs and this studio!

I love this studio! The work outs are fun and never boring! I’m always able to challenge myself during every class. The coaches are amazing and encouraging! I also love that you can track your progress in the app and see how you are growing in strength and endurance. ?

I like that it’s a smaller gym and not overwhelming like the bigger ones. The personal attention, and motivation you get from each class makes you want to push yourself. Each workout is unique so you never know what you will be doing when you walk in the door. Lots of variety, friendly staff, and great music makes it a great place to workout.

Great workout. I don't have to think about my workout plan for the day. I just show up and sweat. The studio is very clean. We wipe down our stations with a sanitary wipe every time we switch stations. There are lockers to put your stuff. Staff have been very nice and helpful. I love Marcus at the front desk, he is always in a great mood which really lifts my mood up at the 5am classes. I love taking classes with Ashley, it's easy to understand her over the mic and she walks around the room a lot and gives encouragement to individuals throughout the workout.I wish this studio had tablets on the rowers like the treadmills have.I like the app. It's really easy to use and booking classes is a breeze.After a month of classes my all time favorite coach is Shane (I think he doesn't normally coach at Cottleville, he was just filling in). He was very attentive to everyone, constantly making the rounds to check on everyone's form on the rowers and the floor, giving a quick thumbs up as he went by. He gave rowing form tips to a few people. I've never seen another coach help with rowing form (And a lot of people need that help!) He took the time to demonstrate EVERY floor exercise which was awesome. It's sometimes hard to tell from the TV screen exactly how to do the floor exercise. All the other coaches demo a few exercises but he did them all. Especially the TRX strap moves. They can be tricky. I found he normally coaches in Ellisville. It's just a bit too far for me to go to, but I would've switched studios if I was closer than 30min.On the business side of things the sales tactics are pretty scummy. There is a 30 day notice for cancellation, so you have to pay an extra month when you want to cancel. The gimmick of the gym is a heart rate monitor which costs something like $120 one time cost on top of the membership fee. If you cancel less than 8 hours before your class, you either lose it on the 4 or 8 class memberships and you are charged a fee if you are on the unlimited class membership.If you want to freeze your membership you can only do so for 60 days max and each month you still have to pay a fee of like $15.They have challenges throughout the year that you can sign up for. To sign up, you have to pay a sign up fee of $15 on top of your normal $110-$160 membership!! My studio was nice enough to waive my marathon month sign up fee since I'm new. That's really nice. But the membership is already pricey. Paying even more just feels gross.

OTF Cottleville has completely transformed my life. I love the friendly staff in the front desk. Hannah, our studio manager is very kind and helpful. She also encourages us to push harder and participate in upcoming challenges. Our coaches Ashley, Caitlyn and Jamie are fabulous (I miss coaches Erin and Emily). Also, the Cottleville studio is very spacious and it feels great to workout after a hectic day. Thank you!

Great service, nice and friendly staff, great knowledgeable trainers. Super clean weight rooms. I moved 30 minutes away and still come back to this location. There were recently more racks added, and I never have to wait for the weights I want to use. The new renovations and updates look great.
