I was nervous about going to a kickboxing class after having a baby this year and not really doing any kind of physical activity for a while before that, but I felt very comfortable and welcomed when starting at Just Train. Everyone is encouraged to go at their own pace and feeling judged is never a thing. I always have a great time and am already seeing major improvements and results. I am very glad I found this place!

I've been going to this gym for seven years, and I'm definitely not the only one. There's actually a lot of variety in who walks through the doors between folks coming in for 5+ years and people just starting out. Everything is at your own pace and modified if you have any injuries or need to work on progression.Most box gyms have only an annual membership with extra (pricey) fees if you cancel early, but Chris offers annual, monthly, and class packs to make it flexible for everyone at different price points. Super flexible, and everybody (instructors of course, and other folks in class) just want to see you reach your fitness goals. Like anything worth doing, if working out was easy and you lost 30lbs in a month, everybody would have a six pack! That's just not realistic, but the team here works with you, cares about how it's going. Nutrition plans too! Everyone here is supper welcoming, there aren't any pushy muscle-heads like there are at box gyms, just genuine people who actually care.If you read a lot of the other reviews you'll know Chris is a fantastic owner, anything with cancellation policies are actually mandated by the State of Rhode Island and/or the billing company and he's actually really open about explaining it if you have questions, and there's postings at the front desk and it's on the waiver.We do fundraisers for local animal shelters every so often, 5Ks every fall and spring, "Gymsgiving", potlucks, etc.Oh and there's also two gym cats!

I joined the Gym this past March 2022 for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu after having trained for about two years in Washington DC. I am very pleased with the quality of instruction from Chris, George, and Ryan. Basically, the BJJ program is super legit. I highly recommend for anyone in Southern RI to check them out to get good rounds in. Os!

I was a member at the gym from February to July. I needed to cancel my gym membership due to health issues, with hopes of returning in the fall. The first week of July the gym was closed. The following week I wrote to the owner saying I need to cancel. He told me he wouldn’t be able to cancel July or August because he needed a 30 day notice or a doctor’s note. I gave him my doctor’s note and received no response. I attempted to contact him several times and never received a response back, even though I could see that he had read all my messages. I was never rude and apologized for having to cancel. I was still charged for August. I again emailed him letting him know that I was charged for the month of August and was hoping to be refunded. No response. I find this very unprofessional. At least respond back saying you for some reason, could not issue me a refund. I got NOTHING. Even other members were appalled, disappointed and shocked that he would react this way. I never leave negative reviews but this left a sour taste in my mouth. The membership is $135/month! That was $135 that I did not account for for that month and it left me in a bind. I thought we had a good relationship at the gym but I guess money trumps loyalty and professionalism. Very disappointing.

I tried out this gym and it was great! Chris is a great instructor who is willing to get down with you and show you the right way. As someone without a lot of training I had to learn new workouts and his tips and tricks were so helpful. The gym itself was clean and I left excited for my next class.

I'm new to Just Train. In my 40 + years in Martial Arts and Wrestling this is the most impressive facility I have ever seen. From the moment I walked in the door I was treated like family. Everyone on staff is there to help. The multi level building is full of equipment with experienced teacher to help someone new learn. Experienced people are also welcome. This place is more than a school/gym. It's a family. All are welcome. A rare find.

Highly recommend kickboxing at Just Train if you’re looking for a fun, high-intensity work out. The trainers know their stuff, are encouraging and offer modifications for most exercises — so no matter your fitness level, you can still get a great workout! For me the group fitness format is much easier to commit to than going solo to a gym— it helps that everyone at JT is friendly and supportive and it’s not intimating like in big-box gyms. Sign up with a friend if you need that extra motivation— or you’ll make friends when you get there.

I've been attending this gym for a couple years now, both fitness and martial arts classes. It's a great place, very laid back attitude, knowledgeable instructors, and welcoming people. Wide range of abilities, great for people starting out.

I have been away from Just Train for about a year and a half now, and I went back for the first time today... it’s like I never left!! Chris the owner is probably one of the most friendly and accommodating trainers I know. Today’s class was with Janelle and I have nothing but good things to say! She broke down every exercise and kept the group highly motivated! The entire gym is so comfortable, welcoming and collaborative. No matter who you are you’ll fit right in. These guys are the best in the industry and I am so happy to be back!! P.s they are doing a rockstar job keeping the gym clean and sanitized. Can’t say enough good things about Just Train!!

If I could give it 20 stars, I would! Just Train is like a family. People truly care about each other. There is no judgement, only encouragement. All levels, all ages, all sizes!

I’ve been a JT member for the past five years. I used to hate working out and the thought of gym culture, but JT and the trainers there changed my mind!The culture is friendly, and encouraging - beginners are welcomed and old dogs are challenged. It’s a community of people working to improve and feel supported while doing it with egos set aside.Cleaned after every class and with plenty of room to workout, I never once in the past years and half worried about getting sick. In fact, thanks to JT’s adherence to cleanliness, I felt safer working out than almost any other public place.
