“I can't recommend Barre3 Downtown Buffalo highly enough. I originally discovered the studio through Class Pass, and after seeing such incredible results, I became a member about nine months ago. It has genuinely been one of the best investments I've made in my health.
Every class feels fresh because the workouts are constantly evolving, keeping things challenging without ever becoming repetitive. The instructors are exceptional: knowledgeable, welcoming, encouraging, and genuinely invested in every person's success. They create an environment that's both motivating and supportive, with a strong emphasis on proper form, thoughtful coaching, and meeting you where you are while helping you grow stronger.
One of the things I appreciate most is the variety of classes. They complement each other so well that it's easy to build a balanced routine that improves strength, stability, mobility, endurance, and overall fitness. No matter how long you've been attending, there's always something new to learn and new ways to challenge yourself.
Another unexpected bonus is how easy it is to get there. Parking has never been an issue, making it simple to fit a class into even a busy day.
Whether you're completely new to fitness or looking to take your training to the next level, Barre3 Downtown Buffalo is an incredibly welcoming community with outstanding instructors and workouts that truly deliver results. I'm so grateful I found it.”

“My son had evolved in his confidence since starting here with Anthony! He has always loved the game and has played since 4 years old but Anthony gives him the attention and critiques him to enhanced his skills! We love IFS & are so thankful for Anthony!”
“Nice facility and challenging workouts. Great way to get through a lot of work in a short amount of time. Great place to bring a group and keep each other motivated.”
“Outstanding gym, equipment is kept working and modern. This place is CLEAN. They continue to put back into the gym. New paint, windows and upkeep . Staff is friendly and helpful. Trainers are ready and available. The membership is reasonable and fair. They used to have more classes available. What they do have is good. I'd like to see a few more. I highly recommend this gym. I've made many new friends here.”
“Our family is incredibly grateful for Sensational Fun! Having a child with a language and developmental delay can make even the most basic daily activities a challenge. For example, going to play places because your child doesn’t communicate like the other kids. That’s what makes Sensational Fun so remarkable. They genuinely accept every child for who they are and celebrate each child’s uniqueness. Since joining the Sensational Start program, our two-year-old has grown and learned numerous new skills.”
“I started going to Fit Happez in 2024 after finding them through class pass and I am so grateful to have found this studio! The owners, Cindy and Marisa, and all the instructors are always upbeat and inviting! Everyone is incredibly friendly and the instructors always go out of their way to make everyone feel comfortable, whether you're new or experienced. I always leave classes feeling stronger and excited to come back!”

“Best decision of my life! The sense of community and belonging no matter your level of fitness and your age it’s such a warm welcoming no matter the camp time you go to, the guidance you receive from your trainer is out matched and helps me achieve weight I never thought was possible and especially milestone is celebrated with the whole camp not just yourself, the best part is no more guessing!! Walking in already know what you are doing and having such a easy access to making your workout easier or harder is the best addition of the format of the workouts”
“I really just like being here! I row crew competitively and part of the sport is doing circuit training. This is the kind of gym that offers it. My former rowing team folded a year ago so I’ve been on my own. Basically feels like I never left the team except my classmates aren’t rowers. (Even though some did row in the past) 75% women 25% a men I’ve always been used to. So the water rower is definitely my favorite part!
The coaches are awesome coaches and the staff too! The coaches know how to motivate you and get going, especially with the music they play.
I have auditory processing so I need some things explained 2 or 3 times. When I’m on a treadmill I just call their name and most of the time they come to me and explain it. During the floor workouts the tv screens are my friend and if I’m doing something wrong they come over and correct me or sometimes give me a challenge.
On days where I don’t feel like going hard and taking it easy (grey/blue zone) I just let the coach know so it’s not like I am disrespecting them. Weather I’m having a good day or bad day going to this gym makes me feel a lot better.
If there ever was a lifetime membership option I’d consider it. (Even though it’s a long shot from it happening). Love the staff and the set up and always look forward to coming back.
If you’re thinking of trying it for the first time, the first time will be the hardest if you’re not used to circuit training but then gets easier if you keep going.”

“I’ve never been the type to wake up super early to work out but f45 changed that. 45 minute workouts that make you feel so accomplished and stronger.

“We were staying at the hotel next door, and decided to drop in for the day to Body Blocks.
We chatted with the owner, Bob, for a little while and he was very welcoming. Bob took the time to show us around the facility, and explained all of the advanced recovery modalities that the facility offers. If we had more than a weekend in Buffalo, we’d definitely give the infrared sauna and NormaTec a go!
You can tell immediately that the equipment in the weight room was hand-selected with a lot of care. Body Blocks has some amazing machines on the main floor from a variety of different manufacturers: Cybex, Precor, Hammer Strength, Hoist, etc. The facility was put together thoughtfully, not just plug and play from one supplier.
The facility was clean, and the sparkling water option at the water cooler was a nice touch.
If we’re ever in Buffalo again, we’ll certainly be back.”

“I’ve been training at WNY Strength and Conditioning for over a year, and three months ago I swept gold at the 2025 USAW National Championships, setting all the national records for the 94kg U17 class—a result that the entire WNY S&C team was instrumental in bringing about.
Coach Titus and Coach Chris deliver expert programming and take the time to explain not just what to do, but the how and why behind every movement. They’re passionate teachers who will gladly share the knowledge they have. Dr. Albano and Mrs. Palmerton are equally committed, offering top-tier physical therapy and nutrition guidance to keep athletes performing at their best.
Most importantly, Coach Titus has built a culture of excellence that pushes everyone—whether you’re chasing international titles or just looking to get back in shape—to become their best self. WNY S&C is the place to train if you want results and a community that supports you every step of the way.”

“I’m so glad I found this gym! There are times I like to get in an early workout before a busy day, and many other gyms don’t open until 5:30 or later. The environment here is clean, peaceful, and well-maintained. Being downtown makes it super convenient, with no long commute. I also love that almost everyone I’ve seen actually works out — no worrying about people hogging equipment while scrolling on their phones. I really appreciate the low-key vibe too; it’s perfect for avoiding crowded, hectic gyms. Highly recommend!”
“Been going here for a couple weeks. All the equipment is operational and the coffee is a plus for my post p

“I've been going to Boxstar for the last year and a half. My last class is this week before I leave town AND I HAVE A LOT OF FEELINGS ABOUT IT. ?❤All of the head trainers are AMAZING. The same can most definitely be said of all the other staff as well. I'm an early morning class person and it's honestly the best feeling to start the day with having punched and kicked a million times and doing circuits in such good company.I was primarily a gym goer to facilities with just weight and cardio stations and machines. Boxstar was such a game changer. Being someone with limited mobility and rotation in my leg, fitness classes can be really mentally exhausting because more often than not, classes and trainers of large groups aren't able to help with modifications because of large class size or the class just moves at a very fast pace - not an issue here. I feel more than comfortable talking to any trainer here, even the ones that aren't regulars with me and feel confident that they really do care and will take a beat in class before/during/after class to check in with me.I really have been spoiled here. Each trainer brings their own style to their classes - you'll definitely find whatever you're looking for in boxing and circuit training classes, martial arts and private training is also offered.If you're in Buffalo, you're really missing out if you haven't stopped by here yet. This gym is definitely the place I'll miss most leaving the 716!!!!”
“My daughter is brand new to cheer but she is so excited to join the BASE squad this year. She loves learning the moves and she absolutely adores Coach Yanni. The facility is being upgraded and it looks great so far. New flooring, equipment, the whole nine yards. Everyone I’ve encountered so far has been very helpful and pleasant. I’m looking forward to being a part of the BASE family for years to come.”
“I never thought I'd have a personal trainer -- or enjoy working out! -- but four pregnancies was not kind to my body. Coach Lindsay has been wonderful!Lindsay is a prenatal, postpartum and woman's fitness coach and instructor who is AMAZING. She's a wealth of knowledge on the science of fitness and women's' bodies. I wish I had discovered her earlier. I think prenatal work: truly understanding and preparing for what my body would do in labor childbirth might have prevented a c-section. I didn't know what I was doing and wore out. We train for marathons, but not for birth.I can't recommend her enough for anyone pregnant, recovering from childbirth or just looking to be more active and learn about health and fitness.”

“Harborside feels more like a supportive community than just a gym. The members and coaches are welcoming, encouraging, and genuinely invested in helping everyone succeed. As a newcomer, I felt comfortable from day one and was quickly made to feel like part of the group.
The programming is thoughtful, well-organized, and designed with long-term progress in mind. Training cycles are structured, recovery is considered, and coaches are always willing to adapt workouts to meet individual needs and goals. They continuously look for ways to improve and provide the best experience possible.
Whether you’re a competitive CrossFit athlete or just someone looking to get healthier, you’ll find support, coaching, and accountability here. The atmosphere is positive, motivating, and free of the ego that can sometimes be found in fitness communities. Harborside has been one of the best CrossFit gyms I’ve trained at, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place to grow, learn, and enjoy fitness.”
“This club has come a long way since a year ago when I first went. Very disappointed to hear that tanning is going to be gone soon? It's one of the main reasons I go to this club. That aside, it's one of my favorite Catalyst locations. Always clean and well kept. Bathrooms are even very clean. The people here just come and do their thing and then leave. Very little of people taking up machines for 35 mins on their phone, or people just hanging out walking around for hours. Very high respect level here for the care of the gym, by both the staff,and the members.”
