Lone Fir Fitness

Fantastic experience: I want to thank Ash,Tom and Kelly. What a great facility ! They motivate and help you to do exercises with the right form. Great energy!!

Fantastic experience: Loving the intro special at Lone Fir Fitness! Really enjoyed the space, friendly staff and 1:1/class options. It's in such a central location and didn't come off as a "gym" when you walk into the front door. Instructors kicked my butt in the best way. Highly recommend for anyone trying to get back into the groove of moving their body and want to push their limits in new ways.

Fantastic experience: Corbin kicked our butts today in kettlebell! More kettlebell!!! Alejandra is another great instructor who designs excellent classes and makes you feel like she’s your biggest fan your. Lone fir has been so great to me after coming back to the gym from a long stint away due to injuries. No matter your fitness level you are welcome here.

Fantastic experience: I'm so grateful for Lone Fir. I was just getting back into my weightlifting routine and the trainers here have all been so welcoming and helpful. I'm bummed I have to move away but really can't recommend coming here enough.

Fantastic experience: It's a great gym with fantastic trainers, and the small, individualized atmosphere works well for me.

Fantastic experience: Charlotte is awesome!

Fantastic experience: I've been going here for 4 years and have never looked back, never regretted a dollar spent, never had a bad class, never had a bad interaction with the owner - who is on site a ton - never seen the place messy or dirty or unkempt. I started out of shape and was quickly whipped into shape. I never regret going - even on cold, dark winter mornings. I enjoy the classes and the variety brought by the different instructors but also by each instructor from class to class. If you are looking for a place to slam weights around and make loud grunting noises while high-fiving your bro over your sweet new PR while mocking other lesser mortals around you, this is not the place for you. if you are a normal person who just wants a great workout in a group setting or a great yoga class, this is the place for you. I am sure the personal training is really good but I have never had a session. The personal trainers also teach classes though, and I can say that based on that I am certain the personal training is also fantastic.

Fantastic experience: If you're serious about fitness and want to train in a welcoming, fun and respectful environment, this is the right gym for you. I was really impressed by the quality of the classes: the trainers are knowledgeable and passionate about their work, and there's a really beautiful and diverse community. I only wish I lived closer to be a regular!

Fantastic experience: I love the vibe of the gym - supportive, energetic, positive. I also love how clean and fresh smelling the gym is - not perfumed, but just clean. It definitely is NOT like other gyms I've been in that smell like the inside of a gym bag. The equipment is clean and tidy and I don't have to fight for others to get what I need for my workout. The BEST part though is the staff who are universally approachable and knowledgable and really really fun.

Fantastic experience: Best gym on the PLANET. Great community, killer classes, and super open to member feedback

Fantastic experience: Such an amazing gym and an even better community! They offer a great variety of classes that they make accessible for all levels of fitness and the classes are creative and fun! The staff are amazing, they make an effort to welcome you by name and are very caring and personable. I’ve even had them reach out to me when I’ve had an injury and when I’ve grieved a loss in my life. I can’t think of many gyms that authentically care about your physical and mental wellbeing. They also promote health and fitness in a body positive way! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I can thank Covid lockdown for introducing me to my personal trainer, Veronica, and by extension Lone Fir Fitness (formerly Studio X). Veronica and LFF have improved my health and my mindset and completely changed my body. Everyone at the gym is super friendly and there are all sorts of body types there. I’ve never felt so comfortable in a gym. The burn classes are challenging and fun—if that’s the right word.

Fantastic experience: this is a great place to work out with a great community of trainers! Lacy is so chill and low-key, she made slipping right back into working out so comfortable. I've had great experiences with Veronica as well, who is always looking out for the community. some of these people have held on thru the pandemic, they've got a really good momentum going. if you live in this area, lone fir should be a top contender for your next gym.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym so much. It's an amazing space filled with knowledgeable, friendly, and awesome trainers. I have been a member for almost three years now and look forward to many more. There's a real sense of community here and the environment is so welcoming!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym

Fantastic experience: I have worked with a personal trainer, and they are knowledgable and personable. I am achieving my fitness goals faster than I thought possible.

Fantastic experience: Great Gym! Trainers, Owners and the community of people 10/10.

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym that I've ever belonged to! Great selection of equipment and it's never too crowded. It's a really good size that lends itself to a feeling of community. I've enjoyed every class I've taken and the person training has changed my life.

Fantastic experience: I joined Lone Fir in March 2023, mainly because I'd been doing strength training on and off for a few years and wanted to find a gym with the support to take me to the next level. Lone Fir delivered beyond my wildest dreams! They have everything you need to get in amazing shape, from beautifully maintained equipment and space to brilliant and kind staff rooting you on. I have a trainer/open gym membership which I highly recommend if you're looking for guidance and motivation (the classes are also fantastic and small enough to get personal attention). My trainer is Ash and she is BEYOND AMAZING and all of the trainers are awesome, each with their own motivational style. Their trial is a great way to try the gym and see which trainer you'd work best with. Seriously, I never thought I could feel so strong and I feel such a debt of gratitude to this wonderful gym. If you have ever been even a little bit curious about strength training or lifting heavy but are turned off or intimidated by the macho aura of lifting culture, this is your perfect gym. It's like all the best parts of Portland distilled in one place and I love it so much.

Fantastic experience: I have commented favorably on this gym a few times, but, as it recently changed ownership, here is an update. This neighborhood gym, in business in the same location for >20 years, was recently sold by the founder/owner. It's still small, meticulously clean and maintains its "community" vibe. The staff are thoroughly professional and know gym members by name. Many clients have been using the facilities for years. The new owners (clients of the gym, who are also neighborhood residents) are adding to the current menu of weight, HIIT, functional training and open gym. As before, class sizes are small and the exercise stations are well-managed. This remains a "traditional" gym in that equipment is limited to free weights, ropes, kettle bells, balls, Aerodyne bicycles, Concept 2 rowing machines, TRX and so on. In summary, Lone Fir Fitness (formerly Studio-X) is not a chain or franchise operation. The new owners are very engaged and this is their primary business. They are on-site daily. Prices are reasonable and the clientele is loyal. There are no hidden membership clauses. No pressure. There are no membership fees: you get what you pay for plus a lot more. It's a perfect alternative to the impersonal, corporatize, sterile gyms that dominate the market.

Fantastic experience: This is a nice workout facility with all you need to exercise in classes or independently, really friendly, variety of classes and strong and supportive trainers!

Fantastic experience: What can i say that hasn't been said in other reviews. This gym has been a life changing experience for me. As someone who was intimidated to go to a big gym, this has not only created a safe place for me to workout, its created a hunger and desire to workout that i've never had in my life before. Trainers are great motivators and match what style and level of push that you need. super reliable team and everyone is friendly.

Fantastic experience: Love the vibe. Friendly and engaged. Beautiful space with a couple of skylights, 15 foot tall plants, and nice overall design with good quality equipment, hand wash stations and everyone is in the habit of sanitizing equipment after use so the place feels pretty clean. So far I've really enjoyed Corbin, Ashley, Jay, Veronica, Lacy. Looking forward to trying the other teachers. All the teachers and the students were really nice. People noticed I was new and were actively welcoming. The owners and the studio manager clearly care about doing a stellar job, and they respond well to requests and suggestions. Thank you!!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve enjoyed the variety of classes offered by Studio X during the pandemic. I’ve been recovering from an injury and the trainers are great about providing alternatives. Molly Malo’s Mobility and Restore class has helped me work out the work day kinks in my shoulders and lower back. I can’t wait to get back to the studio!

Fantastic experience: The Lone fir fitness. Is a great place with great people like Veronica and Ash. Ash was my personal trainer great gal. Being a senior citizen the fees are out of my price range. But I was so glad that I got the opportunity to go and meet such great people. Thank you Nextdoor.

Fantastic experience: Great studio for challenging classes and a great fitness community!!! There's a variety of types of classes from weight lifting focused to cardio and even now Boxing and Yoga! All of the instructors are AMAZING! They're super present and helpful in holding you accountable but also providing modifications when needed. No matter your fitness level, there's space for you to succeed here with whatever your goals are. I really cannot say enough about how wonderful Lone Fir has been. Not only have I seen results and gotten stronger but also after moving to Portland this summer, I really feel like it's given me a great sense of community. Truly the instructors and members really make this a special place.

Fantastic experience: The trainers are awesome, the classes are hard. Such a great vibe!

Fantastic experience: Great friendly staff! All of the trainers are very welcoming and personable. They make the gym environment feel less intimidating yet they still challenge you. The gym has good positive energy and Ive enjoyed going here.

Fantastic experience: I joined a few months ago, and I couldn’t be happier with the decision. I love everything about this gym. The instructors are incredibly kind, encouraging, and accommodating. The classes are challenging and fun. The people who workout here are awesome. As someone who has never felt comfortable at a gym before this one, I feel so lucky to have found this awesome community.

Fantastic experience: StudioX, now "Lone Fir Fitness", is an overall amazing studio. It feels comfortable and luxurious there, and all the trainers are solid. The studio has a great vibe and it's clean and professional.The personal trainers have a wealth of information to share. I've had a great time in all of their classes and open studio hours, and there's even more ahead that I'm excited about. Thank You!

Fantastic experience: Huge fan on this gym! I love the welcoming atmosphere, awesome instructors, and variety of classes. I've tried a lot of gyms in Portland and this is a total gem. It's a great community and the classes are challenging and fun.

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience all around. Great trainers (Ash is the best personal trainer I've ever worked with in years of training with people all over the world). Extremely clean facilities, high end equipment, great location, good vibes. Veronica who oversees everything is a gem and I really appreciated her going out of her way to make my time there the best it could be.

Fantastic experience: The classes are challenging and the instructors are great about providing modifications where needed. The format of the classes is fun, energetic and they go by so fast as a result! The gym itself is clean, open, and staff are personable - overall a great environment.

Fantastic experience: Great coaching, a welcoming atmosphere, and strong workouts make studio x everything I could want in a gym.

Fantastic experience: I would totally recommend Studio X! The reason I love this place is that all different types of walks of ppl come here! Sometimes going to gym can be intimidating but at studio X, All the instructors make you feel welcomed and are super positive! We started with the trial and now are members. We go anywhere from 3 to 4 a week and love it also that each class is a different!

Fantastic experience: Studio X instructors are personable, attentive and inspiring. The vibe of the entire gym is welcoming, inclusive and professional. I can’t remember a time when I’ve had such a great experience at a gym (I’m not a gym regular, but I might become one at Studio X.)

Fantastic experience: StudioX Fitness is just not like any other studio. It’s personal, has unique and interesting classes - and plenty of personal fitness opportunities - and at a fair price. I have checked out A LOT there - yoga, boot camps, strength training, massage. They are always mixing it up!

Fantastic experience: Very friendly and welcoming. Felt listened to and seen by personal trainer who did a thorough job of setting expectations and discussing needs. Space is clean and unfussy.

Fantastic experience: The trainers are great! Very friendly, attentive, and helpful. The gym areas have plenty of space and do not get crowded. There is a wide variety of equipment. And the gym is always very clean!

Fantastic experience: Personal attention, creative space, good people, and they're helping me make personal progress on my fitness. What's not to like about StudioX?

Fantastic experience: Ash is great for the group Burn class!

Fantastic experience: My trainer Ash is incredible. She’s so kind and friendly, as are all the people I’ve encountered at StudioX. I never feel judged and I don’t feel self-conscious. I enjoy feeling like I don’t have to compare myself to anyone. StudioX meets you where you are on your exercise journey and helps you to get further on your journey with patience and directions. I highly, highly recommend StudioX.

Fantastic experience: Clean space, friendly staff.

Fantastic experience: Great staff and equipment!

Fantastic experience: The trainers are great, the workouts have a lot of variety. StudioX has consistently adapted to the times by offering new types of workouts and different formats (onsite and online scheduled classes, plus digital assets you can use on-demand). For those who are ready to be onsite as well as for those who want to comfort of working out from anywhere there are lots of options. The gym (even before the pandemic) has always been kept super clean and well stocked with equipment and supplies. So, even though the gym is not large enough to have showers, they offer lots of ways to freshen up before you head out to the world if desired. It takes less than an hour to pop in for a class and get a tough yet efficient workout that makes you feel good all day. Tim Irwin (owner) runs a great business and it always interested in member feedback and applies it swiftly.

Fantastic experience: Supportive, friendly trainers with amazing full body workout programs! The small class size meant more personalized attention, which I really appreciated due to my injuries. Definitely a top notch fitness experience!

Fantastic experience: Made a short term visit and figured I would use a trainer. Jay was my guy and he exceeded my expectations! Highly recommend! Super knowledgeable, easy to work out with, very supportive and great communication skills! USE HIM!

Fantastic experience: Concise, thoughtful instruction, super effective training, wonderful people, extra clean and intentional facility.Keep up the great work!

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! Great variety of classes, EXCELLENT trainers, never overcrowded, cool atmosphere, and all in a supportive environment. AND they have Wellness Programs! The recent addition of Cupping with Mason Moore is my new favorite. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Fantastic experience: Really cool gym. Excellent facility and equipment. Super clean and nice. Lots of Covid precautions in place. I feel safe here and enjoy doing in-person personal training. Owner is very friendly.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! The trainers are all absolutely amazing and so motivating. I appreciate the live virtual classes offered during COVID because I am one of those people that needs external accountability, and if I sign up for a live class, I’ll actually commit and go. Can’t wait for in-person classes again. (Get vaccinated everyone!)

Fantastic experience: Great instructors with a fun, high energy and inclusive environment. Can't wait to get back at it. Hopefully sooner rather than later!

Fantastic experience: These are the reasons I give Studio X Fitness a 5 star rating: The variety of classes and types of workouts. The trainers are skilled and friendly. They are attentive and will give feedback on form and technique. They adapted well from in-person to at-home workouts. They are welcoming to new and returning clients. Trainers adapt workouts to the type of equipment folks have at home. Studio X gives clients the option to work out in a live class or on your own time with on-demand virtual classes. The workouts are tough, yet adaptable to fit individual needs and abilities. Everyone is helpful and goes above and beyond to support clientele. I’m grateful to Studio X for hanging in there during the pandemic and continuing to be the best gym in the Portland area.

Fantastic experience: This studio has been ciritcal to helping me maintain my mental health during this pandemic. You can take almost every class with just bodyweight, no equipment necessary and it's all online. I love workouts with Veronica, be sure to take her class!

Fantastic experience: StudioX instructors are so welcoming and encouraging -- and all of them offer a wide variety of challenging (sometimes very challenging) workouts. I'm especially grateful for the live online classes. Being able to get a good workout at home is helping me stay sane during these months of social distancing!

Fantastic experience: Classes are challenging and fun, personal trainers listen and plan workouts to individual needs, staff is friendly and accommodating.

Fantastic experience: Experienced, fun and authentic trainers (they practice what they teach), Private gym not a huge franchise type so they limit each class to about 10 people. Workouts are superb and trainers focus a lot on proper form with everyone. I came in with very little workout training and didn’t feel judged at all with where I was starting from. Their package options rock!

Fantastic experience: I was in Portland on business and decided to try out StudioX at the recommendation of a friend. I'm now officially hooked and will be back every time I'm back in town! The studio/gym was stocked with all the best toys, from air assault bikes, to kettlebells. The workout was well planned, explained, and executed from start to finish. AND, the instructor and students were beyond welcoming. For anyone serious about fitness and having fun in the process, StudioX is the place in Portland for you!

Fantastic experience: Excellent and friendly staff and great options for different workouts

Fantastic experience: Super fun and challenging class. Loved it! Very nice space, motivating instructors, and nice variety of movements. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Love everything about the place! But, the biggest help to me is the volume of quality classes throughout any given day. Exceptional trainers and service! So glad I joined the StudioX family!

Fantastic experience: I love this gym. Great location and personable, talented instructors. Sarah Llewellyn in particular!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to this gym for about five weeks now and I absolutely love it. I really don’t have a favorite trainer, all the ones I work with bring their own charisma and knowledge (and amazing soundtracks — you will never hear bro dub step) to class. Even though I only go a few times a week it’s a great community and people of all ages come here.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym, they are so welcoming and friendly. It is a clean and nicely designed space. They have a nice variety of classes, I went pretty regularly once or twice a week for a while and always had a great workout : ). The classes always felt fun and new

Fantastic experience: Loved working with Nathaneil for personal training. I was not able to finish my sessions with him due to an unrelated injury, but he was very accommodating when I did see him. He is also extremely respectful, listens well, and pays great attention to detail to make sure I was using proper body mechanics and form. I enjoyed learning a lot of different tools and ways to exercise, and especially appreciated his focus on balance and body awareness. I just wish I hadn't gotten injured so I could continue! Also, the gym is lovely and always felt like a comfortable place to work out. I would definitely recommend this place!

Fantastic experience: I've only gone to one class so far but loved the atmosphere of the gym and Paulie was great! Try "Jacked and Burn", it's a good one!

Fantastic experience: Amazing instructors and facility. Super friendly staff!

Fantastic experience: Great classes. Seriously push the limits.

Fantastic experience: There is such a wide variety of classes, it really allows me to cater my workouts to my specific goals all under one roof! I also love that Wellness is here as well, I feel like this gym allows me to be a well-rounded, interesting person and try new things.

Fantastic experience: Great classes. I work harder at StudioX than I have at any other gyms in Portland

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for the best gym in Portland, you found it! Amazing instructors, awesome class variety, and spotlessly clean.

Fantastic experience: If your serious about fitness, look no further than StudioX. Staff and members are very friendly and Veronica is an amazing instructor!

Fantastic experience: Great variety of classes and really friendly people!

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Veronica since July 2018 and am in the best shape of my life. I have seen my strength, endurance and overall confidence improve over the last 8 + months. Veronica truly cares and pours her heart and soul into helping me reach my goals. She changes up my workouts to keep things interesting, researches ways for me to improve strength movements and is always supportive. Her special blend of humor along with hard training sessions has changed my life for the better. I laugh as much as I sweat, which is a ton. :) I look forward to working out now and it has become a consistent part of my self-care routine and something I now crave when I take a day or two off. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a personal trainer. She is fantastic!

Fantastic experience: The staff are so genuinely nice and not pretentious at all!

Fantastic experience: This place is the best hidden gem in the SE. the facility is world class with trainers that match. Every detail from the mints in the changing room to the towel service is spot on. Not only do you leave feeling rejuvenated, you get the best customer service there is out there

Fantastic experience: Great instructors with a variety of classes

Fantastic experience: Great space, great equipment, great staff.

Fantastic experience: The classes and instructors are great. There is a nice variety of options, from heavy lifting, to HIIT, to yoga. The times are convenient too, there are classes offered later in the evening (7, 8), which is great for folks that work until 6. I came to the studio after years of CrossFit training and injuries. I feel like I can get a solid workout here and push myself, with less risk of injury. Of all the classes, Grit is my favorite. I wish they offered it 3-4 times a week instead of 2!

Fantastic experience: I've had nothing but amazing experiences here at StudioX. The classes are smaller than other studios I've been to, ranging from 5-15. With that size, you get to really know the community and the instructors can really make sure everyone gets the attention they need. The different mix of classes offered is also an amazing plus, as with each membership you can sign up for any variety of classes you'd like. The gym is small, but clean, which isn't an issue since the class sizes tend to be smaller as mentioned before. Yoga, cardio, boxing, they got it all.

Fantastic experience: Every single member of the staff are knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. The class structure is great and the equipment and workout area is clean and well taken care of. I have zero concern when i workout here about MRSA or malfunctioning equipment like i do at other gyms. The only issue I really have is the availability of parking in the area but of course there is not studio X's problem and nothing they really could do about it anyway. Besides, having to walk a block or two after a workout is good for you!

Fantastic experience: I have been going to studioX for about a month now and everything about this gym is awesome. I appreciate the variety of classes and class times. The music is great. The space and vibe are incomparable. The instructors are motivating and helpful. And they offer massage and acupuncture on site. I would highly recommend this studio to anyone and everyone looking to achieve their fitness goal.

Fantastic experience: The space is really nice. Nice natural light. I like all the instructors, all are welcoming and encouraging while still pushing us to give our best and making some suggestions for improving form.

Fantastic experience: Great trainers and a fantastic positive vibe, no matter the level you are working at.

Fantastic experience: I've always found gyms and fitness classes rather unappealing as I prefer to workout alone. StudioX changed everything for me! The teachers are outstanding, the classes are challenging and fun, and the studio has a really positive vibe. I couldn't be more pleased to be part of this gym!

Fantastic experience: My experience with this place has been fantastic. The online registration system keeps me accountable to my workout, while also making reservations a breeze. The trainers were ready to work with me as a newbie, providing clear instruction and awesome motivation. The facility is awesome and easily accommodates yoga, suspension classes, personal training, and a plethora of high-energy workouts. Two thumbs up.

Fantastic experience: I am a little hesitant to leave a review for StudioX... Not because this place deserves anything less than 5 stars, but because I'm selfish and not sure I want to share what I've found! I've tried my share of gyms and studios around town, but nothing compares to what StudioX has to offer. A diverse portfolio of classes, knowledgeable & friendly instructors, and an inviting atmosphere to get your sweat on. Lastly, I really appreciate how much effort they put into keeping the gym and equipment clean and sanitized! Bravo and keep it up!

Fantastic experience: I love the Toned class! It’s a blend of yoga, weight training and cardio. Mackenzie is an amazing teacher. Her energy is contagious!

Fantastic experience: I love the trainers, format, class variety and times, everything! I started at this studio on the trial almost two years ago and have had a membership ever since.

Fantastic experience: Great class! Cool gym and location!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to this gym for 1.5 months (twice a week) and have nothing but good things to say. Very welcoming gym. All the employees are very sweet and highly trained (shout out to Molly, Hallie, Blair & Charissa who I’ve personally worked with and are great!) They truly want to help everyone of different shapes and sizes get healthy and in shape. I go to the group classes (jacked+burn & abs+burn) and yoga. Every class is a little different so classes stay interesting and you don’t end up doing the same boring workout routine over and over again. With the smaller classes the instructors are able to walk around and help you adjust your form to make sure you are doing to movements safely and correctly to get the most out of the workout. I really appreciate how they walk around giving personal feedback to people instead of calling people out in front of the whole class. Im relatively new to working out and still am gym shy, but I feel comfortable at this gym. Also, the gym is spotless and kept up very well. Going twice a week (1 group class & 1 yoga class) I started seeing improvements to my body very quickly. After the first couple weeks I already feel stronger and look leaner. I 100% recommend this gym to everyone and anyone!

Fantastic experience: I often go to StudioX's Jacked+Burn, Drench, and Yoga classes. They are all awesome and the instructors work me like a mule (in a good way) every time I step into the gym.

Fantastic experience: I love open gym, I can go and do any type of workout that I want and I have a beautiful, clean, well-equipped space to do it in. Bravo, my good sirs and madams... bravo.

Fantastic experience: Convenient location, great employees!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic owner and quality training from an awesome staff! The atmosphere is extremely welcoming and the trainers go out of their way to assist in achieving your fitness goals. The owners and members genuinely care about each other and this environment alone contributes to the success of a healthy lifestyle. I wouldn't be the professional athlete that I am without the help of Studio X. (Thank you Tim).

Fantastic experience: Very friendly, welcoming staff. Great gym size.

Fantastic experience: Great experiences from the trial sessions. Encouraging coaches to help achieve your potentials. Great environment, amenities, and staff. Just a great gym overall.

Fantastic experience: Studio X has energetic trainers, a clean, inviting space and challenging, fun workouts!

Fantastic experience: Nice people...fun and challenging classes...great space. So much better than a big box gym. Support a local business and check it out.

Fantastic experience: StudioX is the best place to work out in Portland. Great trainers, tons of classes, a large selection of equipment, and all the attention you need and dread. It is working out like you've always wanted, without the gym bros or bunnies preening in front of the mirror.
