Janel is a part of the hospitality/customer service team at EFFECT fitness and she is attentive with the best attitude to deal with people. She makes new members feel welcomed. She encourage members to grind upon greeting them. She gives positive shoutouts throughout your visit in her present. Just recently a new member wasn’t”t doing well after a workout Janel went into the ladies restroom and treated her like family. She greeted her with encouraging advice and reassured her that she would be just fine. She even went into the stall to assist her. Going over & above was what she was displaying. Others that witness this was relieved that Janel took charged with ease. Janel you are a positive force at EFFECT when it comes to relating to the masses. I have witnessed this on several occasions. You are an EFFECT woman that ROCKS!!!!!! Keep being a Motivating force ❤️

Went for the first time this morning and I was super nervous. The front desk manager was so so nice and welcoming. She eased my nerves. First visit is free, signed a waiver, and she showed me where I needed to go. Awesome customer service, and awesome class!!! I just loved loved seeing my people come at 530 in the morning working out, it was a crowd this early!!! So heartfelt seeing my people take their health serious. God bless this gym for promoting fitness and health in the African American community. We are number one in obesity and heart attacks, I’m so glad that God is using these vessels to come up with crafty ideas to help us love working out!! I will be back!!!

Went to this gym for the first time today and it was such a wonderful experience. I was so clueless when I walked in but one of the attendants at the front literally took my arm and led me to where I needed to be (front desk). The workout was friendly for all levels (I’m definitely not in the best shape of my life) while also being challenging. Everyone there was extremely friendly- staff and other patrons alike. I left feeling very good about the experience and immediately signed up for the unlimited classes. Admittedly- motivation has been my downfall but I’m actually looking forward to going back and being surrounded by “accountabilibuddies”.

This is the absolute best gym ever! I’ve started and stopped so many times on my fitness and when I implemented Effect!! Baby!!!! I’m addicted and it’s now a major part of my journey! It’s a judgement free zone and all fitness levels are welcome and everyone becomes your family! Dooley by far is best there is at this! Dooley pushes you to do your very best and the way he shows up for us is unmatched! Dooley truly loves his people and it shows through him as well as his staff You just have to experience it for yourself! First class is free! I love being apart of the #effectfamily ❤️

I'm in Texas tryna hang with this group. Very cool, really hard if you're out of shape like me but also doable. The app is user friendly. I bought a tablet and workout using the tablet. One of the things I like is that I get alerts on my phone. The alerts are great because they kinda hold me accountable for checking in. If I can't jump in the live class there are several on-demand options. Check them out! Be prepared for the music christian family!!!! And don't call them asking to play the clean version. Stop being so holy and exercise!!!!

I have always been a gym rat. I LOVE THE GYM, so I’ve been a member of many gyms. Effect Fitness is hands down the best gym I’ve ever been to! #1 the MUSIC.... it is amazing! #2 The energy, now you will get cussed and fussed at to push yourself, however with the best intentions. Some of the nicest people EVER work there. #3 not only are the people who work there nice just about every person who goes there is super nice. It’s an encouraging place that doesn’t make you feel self conscious, but more like you can do anything.

This gym is where you need to be if: You want a friendly environment You want accountability You want to achieve your goals judgement free You want to be challenged You want a cool vibe You want to meet new workout buddies Now Listen, The workouts are CHALLENGING but not too intimidating. Take your time, be consistent and you will definitely Get Paid!! PS. I've quit before but I come back because honestly all of the above reasons and you see results. Try it! Or do a virtual workout. It's worth it!!

Loveeee it! Can seem a slight bit tough at first, but what GREAT workout isn't? Keep attending, get stronger, and build your stamina.... you've got this! Loved it since the first class I've taken years ago.... Love to see everyone GO! Stay consistent! You'll definitely notice change after just the FIRST class! Music , people , instructors , WORKOUTS !!!! JUST COME AND ATTEND! Several classes throughout the day! Saturday along with the rest of the classes are always !

Your really gonna get your sweat and workout here!!! I just wished they had some sort of video to pre watch so you would know the moves and the correct form…also it’s hard to hear the instructor over the music so your basically watching the rows before you switch so you can switch as well…my opinion they either need another monitor so the back can see what’s going on up front or some way for the instructor to be heard a little clearer

Seasonal Depression who? I must say God and EFFECT has definitely been the reason for my attitude on everything in this season. I made a decision I was going to work on me, and better myself from the inside out and EFFECT is definitely helping with that journey. So worth it! Im praying that EFFECT goes nationwide. Everyone needs a community like this <3. Oh, and she's (me) getting finer by the day lol!

Great high energy workouts. However, I was not aware that the boot camp "room" was not ventilated at all. The room has no AC and all windows are shut...This is very irresponsible as we are still in a pandemic and I spent the last week with strep throat after 1 bootcamp session in that room. Please be transparent on your website about your workout conditions because this will get alot of people sick.

Love, love, love this place. Love the 9 pounds I lost. I love the multiple personal trainers with great rates. They really care about your experience. They give back to the neighborhood. Never been to a gym where they adopt 19 families and the members give everything from bikes, to furniture, to iPad, etc. This place pushes you to be your best self and the members become your family members.

Went today with a friend. The workout was intense. However, I enjoyed it. There was plenty of parking. The class itself was packed. My only concern was that it was challenging to follow the instructor because he wasn’t in the front of the class. Once I got the hang of it and focused on listening instead of looking for instruction it was ok. Come ready to sweat and have a great workout.

This place is something special. If you're looking to be pushed beyond "what's normal," u should definitely check them out. The owner is passionate & demands excellence, his trainers & staff have the same vibe, & any class u take will demand your best PLUS a little bit more energy u didn't even know you had! Check them out...one of the best gyms I've ever attended.

The absolute best workouts of my life. This place is a motivational God-send. Enter if you dare, but know that you run the risk of addiction. The workouts are intense, and I started to feel muscles developing in areas that I never realized after only three weeks. I can’t speak highly enough of the experience and the men and women who work here and workout here.

I wish that I could rate a 10! I've been working out at Effect Fitness for about a year. I am absolutely addicted!! The workout is very, very challenging, but the selection of music helps to drive you to keep going. The staff is stellar and makes you feel so welcome. I am 67 years old, soon to be 68 and I see this relationship lasting a very long time!!

OMG what a workout. I sweat every time I go. I love seeing people in here truly working out. The music is awesome. I have been going since February an I see a change. You work out hard for 45 minutes. I love it and recommend anyone looking to drop pounds and shape up to go here. I can’t believe I am getting up at 5 am to work out. Dooley is a beast.

Their amazing personal trainer who operates in this place is just excellent!! I highly recommend her outstanding services. She motivates me to push myself to achieve my fitness goals, is very passionate about seeing her clients reach higher heights in their fitness journey. I strongly recommend her and this will always be my go to place.

Great experience. I love this place and started going back after I got vaccinated.They treat you like family and get to know your name. Note cussing, trap music and a team of trainers who push you is the staple here. Known for Boot Camp but have a few other classes as well. Not a "show up and use the equipment" gym.

Every time I go here the people are nice and friendly. It's not like other fitness centers that host individuals who have arrived at their fitness goals and just go to maintain. The people who attend the training at this facility have never shown me anything else but respect and kindness. Thank you, EFFECT Fitness.

I'm from New Jersey and was in Atlanta the weekend. My neice invited me to the gym, Saturday. It waa amazing love everything about it. The staff ate very friendly and the music was on point. I really like how they have instructors walk around to guide you and encourage you. I would definitely visit this gym agin.

Virtual family (Effect Fitness App) but still get to experience the same vibes and energy as in person clients. I recommend to anyone who wants to stop making excuses and accept the Effect challenge!!! Workouts on demand range from live classes, yoga, zumba and more. Can't wait to pay a visit in person!!!

ALL I CAN SAY IS " AMAZING! AMAZING!! AMAZING!!!". This was my first class and I have never sweat so much in any bootcamp class before and not feel completely drained afterwards. I LOVED IT!!! The music, the instructor, the class participants were all inspiring. I WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK SAVE MY SPOT.

I’ve been coming here for years and have referred so many of my friends and family here! THIS is how you run a business! S/O to Anber, Ms. Janelle, Lito, Kenni, Marques, and of course Dooley who all show up and show out and motivate everyone to do their best! Come and GET PAID! …

The Best gym in the world. I travel an hour one way, from Braselton, 4 to 5 days a week just to be a part of such an amazing experience. I love the staff, my boot camp friends and my results, both mentally and physically. Thank you E.F.F.E.C.T. for changing my life for the better

I’m fairly new to this gym. I only do bootcamps here and besides the amazing workouts and upbeat music! The ladies at the front desk are always so pleasant and professional. You really can’t help but have a great attitude when they speak to you. Love this gym! I highly recommend

I absolutely love working out at Effect Fitness! It’s changed not only my body, but my mind as well. Dooley pushes you past your limits!! He makes you work for it day in and day out! He’s passionate about people and it shows!!! I’m a forever member now!

This place is. Godsend and a jewel of Atlanta. Finally got brave enough to try a bootcamp class and was immediately addicted. I hadn't felt so good in a very long time. This place also helped me 15 lbs for my wedding! Forever a fan and client.

This place is ADDICTIVE. Once you gone 1 time you are HOOKED. The ladies at the front are So Kind and AMAZING. The bootcamp will work every muscles of your body. If you have any doubts just come in 1 time I promise you will not want to leave

Intense yet friendly atmosphere. Everyone is there for the same goal, "to get paid" what you put in you get out. Monthly membership is reasonable. They have awesome PT. If not and you just do boot camp thats a start in itself. #seeyasoon

I was at the gym last night and the gym was SOOOO CLEAN YOU COULD SMELL THE CLEAN!! The front desk staff are approachable and friendly... bootcamp, training and gym rooms are sanitized before and after every class!! Excellent JOB EF!!

Great work out. Attended the 11:00 AM class. Novice friendly (Me). A great mix of daily work out. The class leader were very intuitive to the entire class flow. I highly recommend. Staff members were top notch to new attendees needs.

Best gym in Atlanta! The facility is always clean and the trainers are amazing! The boot camp classes have such high intensity and you will see results if you stay consistent! Music is always on point! Try it out!

Love this place! The Energy is unheard of. Everyone is so motivated and it spreads onto you. I’m reaching my short term goals to progress towards my long term goals. Definitely worth investing in yourself!

Had a blast.. waayyy too hot inside for the dense crowd and all the trap zumba'n they're doing. I meeeaaannn y'all ain't got air conditioning!? Staff was friendly and welcoming. I'll definitely return

I love the energy in the room! All different levels of fitness in one room all just trying to get it in. Will always pass thru everytime I'm in ATL. Y'all need to come to the DMV more!!

I completed my first class and I'm happy to report that I will definitely be returning. If you are in need of a workout that leaves you feeling elated and drenched, this is the place!

Best gym in Atlanta!!! This is not a LA Fitness. If you come looking cute, you will leave looking a mess. Come prepared to work. Your future self will thank you.

Great place. High Energy. My 2nd time joining. I am sticking to it this time. I am seeing results after 4 bootcamp sessions. Really motivated to hang in there.

Effective and fun work-outs..The music is on point! However, they are slow to start classes (usually 15 minutes). Class Prices went up for classes.. …

A great seat session. They can't tell time and want to keep you all day but you definitely getting your money worth if you put in the work.

I love this place. They care about the whole body, inside and out. They push you ro become the best version of yourself.

Love visiting this place! Tough workout, good music, great results, greater peace of mind. Support Black Businesses ❤

Omg is all I can say. Great workout awesome vibes and a judgment free zone. I will be back for more …

Rude Black folks up in here, cannot support our kind, Don't feel comfortable, First impression is the best ❤️

This gym definitely makes you feel like family. They inspire you and push you to greatness like no other !

Like most places in the Atlanta area, it's over priced and over rated. Don't get caught up by the hype.

My favorite place. I travel 2 hours for Saturday and Sunday bootcamp. The best gym and atmosphere EVER!

Family friendly environment for people at all fitness levels. Trainers schedule differs all great

Best value boot camp class in Atlanta !! Can’t beat the prices, the convenience or the atmosphere

Went for the spin class. Excellence in motion. Great instructor, and class full of energy.

Loved the atmosphere Visit next door health smoothies awesome at juice bar …

I definitely enjoyed my first workout it was challenging but great! I will be back!!

Effect was amazing! Tons of energy! Friendly staff and ample burning of calories!
