Barry's has a cult following and gives you a great workout if you put the work in. There's no denying that. I'm giving Barry's 4 stars because there are a few areas that could be greatly improved. (Note: some of the things that I dislike, may be the things that others love.) 1. It's way too loud. If you need to provide ear plugs at the front desk, it's too loud! But thank goodness they DO have ear plugs. 2. The instructor is 'teaching' two classes at the same time - floor, and tread. It's hard to hear what they are saying half the time, and hard to understand which class they are talking to. This makes it difficult to follow along, especially for newer folks. And of course, because there are so many people to just one instructor - who's teaching two classes in the dark - there's a lot of room for poor form and injury. Recommendation: lower the music and increase the instructor's mic volume. Have a set structure for tread for people to self-follow, and focus on instructing people on the floor. 3. It's SO DARK. It's hard to see anything, and when you have to go back and forth between floor and treads, and put weights away in between, it makes it unnecessarily difficult to get around. At the very least, add some lights near the weights so people can see what they are picking up & can put them back safely. 4. Chaotic - with the Barry's setup, in theory, it shouldn't be hard to put a process in place to make the transition from floor to tread simple. To put it bluntly - it's a hot mess when people are moving. Sometimes weights need to be returned. Then folks find their area. People wait around. Everyone crashes into each other. There's no organization at all and it's frustrating and probably cuts off an extra minute or two of class. It would be easy to add a tiny bit of structure to reduce this chaos when switching positions.

I’ve been to more than 10 Barry’s (most frequently at my home East London location). This was by far the BEST customer service I’ve ever experienced thanks to Andrew at the front desk. His warm welcome, amazing energy and useful Nashville neighbourhood tips (especially The Russell!) complimented by the awesome workout made this my BEST Barry’s experience ever. Thank you!

Great experience here in Nashville! LOVE Barry’s and was psyched to see that they have a location here. Great workout as always and the front desk was so kind, attentive and welcoming! Will be back!
