The full client experience at REVL Training Downtown was impressive, achieving The Fit Guide Award Of Excellence.

The class was also world-class, winning our highest accolade, the Class Experience 5-Star Award.

The class was delivered with strong coaching, clear structure and a great team atmosphere.

The studio setup supported functional training well, with high-quality equipment and a practical layout.

“I really liked the team format and how the class was structured.”

“The coaching was supportive and I felt well guided throughout.”

“The atmosphere in the room made a big difference to the session.”

REVL is an evidence-based strength and conditioning program that incorporates rowers, air bikes and Ski-Ergs, amongst other tools, for the conditioning aspect, and dumbbells, barbells, medicine balls and rigs for their strength component.

Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays are strength-focused workouts called Move and Perform, with Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays more conditioning-based, called Sweat. Team sessions involve working with others in the REVL community towards a common goal.

Community and high performance are a big focus of the REVL approach and have helped them build a devoted following.

Our reception journey started well on arrival. We were greeted promptly, asked for our name and acknowledged as a first-time visitor. Check-in was completed quickly, our class was confirmed, and we were shown where the changing rooms were, where to leave our belongings and where the session would take place. We were also given a quick overview of the class and asked about our usual training, which helped us get settled.

The overall interaction stayed polite and efficient. We were not introduced to the team by name, our name was not used after check-in, and no health questionnaire or waiver was completed. Key practical details like water and towels were not explained upfront. After class, there was no follow-up, and the desk was unattended as the next session started, so there was no clear opportunity to ask questions or discuss packages.

REVL Training Downtown has received our highest accolade, The Fit Guide 5-Star Class Experience Award, making it one of the best in the world.

Our class experience was a standout. The session was well structured, clearly explained and easy to follow, with a strong team-based format that kept things engaging throughout. Instructions were concise, the timer was visible, and the flow of the workout made sense from start to finish.

Coaching was strong across the board. There was consistent movement around the room, clear demonstrations and useful technique cues, including individual feedback when needed. Encouragement was steady and genuine, and there was a clear sense of community, with members interacting and supporting each other during the session. The class finished without a cooldown and there was no post-class follow-up, but the overall delivery and atmosphere left a very positive impression.

Our experience in the studio was highly positive. The space was clearly designed for functional training, with a layout that made it easy to move between stations even during a busy class. Equipment was clean, well maintained and high quality, including Concept2 cardio machines and strength equipment suited to a range of levels.

The overall environment supported the workout well. The space was clean, well lit and at a good training temperature, with visible timers and screens helping structure the session. Branding was present but not overdone, and the setup felt practical and performance focused.

Our experience in the public areas was positive. The club was easy to find, with a clear entrance and a simple, modern look throughout. The waiting area was comfortable, with enough seating and a relaxed atmosphere, and staff interactions in these spaces were friendly and professional.

Changing areas and bathrooms were clean and functional, with lockers, showers and basic amenities available. Towels were provided for showers, but workout towels were not available, and the overall amenity offering was fairly minimal. The space worked well for what was needed, but did not go much further than that.

Our digital journey was straightforward to begin with. The website was clear, easy to navigate and mobile friendly, with class schedules and descriptions presented well. It was easy to understand the offering and how to get started.

To complete a booking, we had to download the app, which added an extra step. The app itself worked well for managing bookings, but there was no confirmation email or message after signing up or booking a class. Social media was a stronger part of the experience, with active channels, clear information and content that reflected the club’s community and training style.
