As a gym junkie, I can state with authority that I know the fitness scene in Albuquerque, and this Spenga place is legit. Over the past decade, I've graciously bled pools of sweat in gyms all over this metro, from CrossFit barns to bootcamp-style conditioning, most recently completing about 18 months at Orangetheory, where I sustained several minor and debilitating injuries. I gave it my all, spent a pretty penny on physical therapy, and finally decided to ditch the treadmill for spin classes. But Spenga's much more than a spin scene. You do 20 minutes on a bike, 20 more on the floor (free weights, kettlebell, TRX, BOSU), and 20 minutes of yoga. Originally, I definitely had reservations, but now that I'm about two months in, I can emphatically state the following: * I burn 700-900 calories per class * The yoga is super good for me * The music's pretty good (better than OTF) * It's more affordable than OTF * The instructors are polished and personable * The facility is spacious and clean * I'm injury free From a community standpoint, this place is more of a drop-in-get-it-done-and-leave kinda situation, which is great with me, but if you're more motivated by a gym full of besties, look elsewhere. I'll note they could get better at correcting form, and I would appreciate more class options, but I've never lost a penny from a late cancellation (there's no need to reserve ahead of time) and I could be wrong, but I think I'm actually seeing the results of these workouts. My wife warned me not to pen this review; she wants to keep the place to herself. Sorry, Laura, now everybody knows.

Spenga is such a cool, modern take on overall fitness. I love that you have three different types of workouts in one 60 min. class and that everything flows so well and is run smoothly. The company and employees are amazing there.

Awesome workout. They pushed me past what I thought I thought I could do and provided support, so I felt confident that I was doing all the movements correctly. The staff was welcoming and motivating. Definitely recommend for anyone looking to get a fun and dynamic workout!

I found a new love and passion! I cannot rave enough about how welcoming all of the staff and instructors are. The workouts are challenging and provide the variety I need to remain focused for 1 hour of me-time. The instructors, other participants and environment are supportive and encouraging. I don't feel self-conscious about my efforts or pressured to push myself to the point of injury, which is how I've felt at other gyms. Another thing I love is how the instructors always offer modifications for a variety of limitations. I am only 2 weeks in but already, I am confident this is going to be a lifetime commitment and a new gym family. ❤️???♀️?? ♀️

I loved Spenga when I attended. Unfortunately, I was injured and requested a medical leave. The first month of my leave, I was charged full price and told that they "couldn't find" the signed request and the doctor's note I had turned in by hand (per their policy). They refunded the month but required me to sign paperwork and turn in another doctor's note AGAIN. 2 months later, my fiancé and I both requested to cancel completely because of a move. Paperwork was turned in by hand yet again. Since then, I have been charged for 4 months full membership even though I haven't stepped foot into their facility to work out since turning in the paperwork. I've made multiple requests for this to stop, and was only told that they were "checking with corporate." After a week of no response, I feel compelled to write this review and warn everyone of the lack of customer service, concern for an ongoing billing issue, and "policies" that allow them to continuously charge you $130 every month if they "can't find your cancelation paperwork." It's disgusting, greedy, and unethical.

I started SPENGA in 2021 and recommend it to anyone that wants to get in better shape. Whether you are a gym rat in a rut or have never worked out a day in your like, SPENGA is for you. Never in a million years did I think I'd like guided classes, but the staff is AMAZING! I like that the workouts change daily. I typically go to one of the classes in the AM and consider the staff friends. The moment I walk in, I am greeted by Sasha who is always smiling and very welcoming. The instructors challenge, push, and motivate me daily with great music and inspirational words used throughout class. Some of my favorite instructors are Mycah, Hatch, Gaby, Amanda... Love the music they play and how they motivate me to give 110%.

I love this studio. There are so many positives but I’ll be brief. The instructors are wonderful and super motivating, the facility is always clean and inviting, the receptionists are the coolest and very friendly and most importantly the workouts are fun, challenging and effective.An added benefit of this gym is that other participating Spenga locations allow members to drop in on classes, which is greatly appreciated for a traveling professional such as myself. It truly feels like a family that encourages you to be the best you and pushes you to reach your goals.To the Albuquerque owner to receptionist and coaches, thank you for what you do!
