A very lovely private gym with amazing instructors. I took a yoga class with Melissa and she was phenomenal! A lively instructor who challenged us but also communicated so each student was comfortable with the movements. The place is quant but kept very clean and tidy. All the equipment was new, clean, organized and the yoga room has a beautiful ambiance. Did this experience with a few friends and it was amazing. Definitely planning on going back!!

I’ve been weightlifting for several years and have recently picked up yoga to challenge myself and meditate after a long day at the office. Melissa is an amazing instructor who makes everyone feel welcome and at home. Her practice is tough yet fun, finds ways for you to improve and pushes you to your own limits. I can’t find a better studio and can’t say enough about how great Melissa is! I highly recommend one visits this studio even if it’s for a drop in class!!

As a newbie to strength training, I’ve been enjoying the classes taught by Melissa. She is a thoughtful, inspiring, and fun instructor who makes working out less of a chore and more of a positive experience. Each class is always something new, and I love that anyone across different fitness levels can take away something. I feel stronger every time I take a class. Can’t wait to be back for more!

I took ONE trial yoga class, and have been hooked ever since ! Melisa is an AMAZING yoga instructor. She adjusts her class according to the group and also individually, when necessary. She is so knowledgeable & professional, with a great personality! I go to my local gym regularly & adding yoga to my fitness routine has helped me TREMENDOUSLY .. both physically and mentally. I always leave class feeling at peace. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND form fitness!!

I had such a great first time experience here! Theresa was a phenomenal yoga instructor. I love the intimate setting and personalized attention. I've been practicing for years now but it's always nice to feel like I can learn new things in class. She made class challenging yet fun. I appreciated all the focus on the breath and sound bowls during meditation at the end of class. I came out of class feeling like a million bucks. Decent street parking within a block or two of the studio. Will be back!

If you’re looking to invest in yourself look no further.. best decision I’ve ever made. Yasha and Melissa will work with you at your pace but also give you gentle pushes to improve your athletic abilities. From private weight training to yoga, to group classes, you will break a sweat and feel accomplished walking out. Bonus is you burn extra calories laughing because they have an impeccable humor. Melissas voice is truly soothing and you can really get in tune with your body during the yoga classes.

I’ve been coming to Form Fitness for a year now, and it never disappoints. From yoga to Melissa’s semi-private Dumbbell Shred, every class has been a great experience. Melissa is kind, attentive, and always offers modifications to fit different goals and body types. Teresa’s Flex & Flow Yogalates is another favorite—such a perfect mix of strength and mindfulness. The instructors here are not only knowledgeable but truly caring, and I’m so proud to be part of such a positive and supportive community.

This is going to be a bit embarrassing but when I first started personal strength training with Melissa, I could barely do a modified push-up. Now I can do full push-ups — at least eight! My massage therapist even noticed how much stronger I’ve gotten, saying my quads feel rock solid now. Totally unprompted! I've also gone from doing squats with 30 lbs to 85 lbs in a few months. I’ve seen real progress in my strength and overall fitness since working with her. She’s also incredibly creative with her workouts so they’re never boring, and her contagious, positive energy always makes me look forward to our sessions. Despite her busy schedule, she also makes time to check in on my diet and gives encouraging reminders (and sometimes reality checks!) to stay consistent with clean eating, which keeps me accountable. Beyond the physical results, what I really love is how much she genuinely cares about her clients — not just physically, but mentally too. During tough moments in my life, she’s shared meditation and breathing tips that helped me calm down and refocus. She introduced me to yoga as well! Melissa really goes above and beyond for her clients and truly brings heart, skill, and energy to everything she does. I can honestly say she’s made a huge difference in both my fitness and mindset. I highly recommend her if you want a trainer who lifts you up inside and out!

Fresh Meadows doesn't have many options as far as yoga and gyms are concerned. I was so happy when I discovered this place within 5 minutes of my home. Most important is the way I feel when I am there and the progress I am making. The atmosphere is aesthetically pleasing and clean. The music is fun, and playlists are welcome. Jacob and Melissa create a warm, welcoming and fun environment that feels very inclusive. My experience with other customers, both male and female, has also been very positive. The gym attracts a supportive and friendly crowd. When I am there, I feel internally relaxed and I can focus on my workout. I have had many trainers over the years; personally, Melissa is by far the best trainer I have worked with. She is not only a certified trainer and yoga instructor; she has a degree in exercise science which is frequently demonstrated by her knowledge. I feel like I learn something new with every session. Her workouts are just the right amount of challenging. She ensures this by asking questions to assess and prevent injury. If I come in with pain, she has knowledge of how to release muscle tension using stretching exercises and equipment. Melissa really listens. This is so important to me. Another benefit is the delicious protein shakes at the end of each weight training session. Over the last year, I have attended yoga classes here, and have bought multiple personal training packages which, for me, included one to one yoga and one to one weight training and cardio. I have enjoyed all of it! I feel stronger and I am appreciating the changes in my body. If you like to take classes, one of the benefits of coming here is that the classes are small and intimate; so even though you are taking a class, you still get a lot of personal attention. I love this place. Highly recommended!
