JP Fitness: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Great little gym really nice and clean equipment and locker rooms
Fantastic experience: Jon, Ivan, Anna, and so many more of their team are fantastic. They're encouraging, and they always say hi when I arrive. I feel comfortable in this gym!
Fantastic experience: Hands down the best gym in the area ! I’ve been there just over 6 months and signed up for another year. I feel so much better physically and mentally and the staff is the best around ! Thank you JP!
Fantastic experience: Impressed is an understatement. 24 hours, clean, lots of equipment, the SAUNA! Easy to get to & parking is easy. The Owner & staff are kind and knowledgeable. The best gym in town!
Fantastic experience: I have been working out at JP Fitness for the last 6 months. I love how the staff always is quick to greet me by name, and encourage me to go the next level in my fitness journey. They are great at making my 1:1 workout schedule work around my life. They are also very personable and are a great resource re all things fitness and strength. The spaces and machines are extremely well maintained and always clean. (I love that they have a sauna on site as well) HIGHLY recommend this gym!!
Fantastic experience: I have been a member of JP fitness for the past 2+ years as a group class participant and independently in the gym. I’ve had nothing but positive experiences! From the cleanliness of the facility to the knowledgeable, friendly staff, and options for everyone from novice to experienced gym goers, this is the best place to be! They are great at hosting fun challenges and events that keep members involved. Not only has my fitness journey drastically improved by going to JP fitness, but I’ve made lifelong friends. I recommend it to anyone and everyone.
Fantastic experience: JP is a great gym! The community is fun and supportive, building is clean, well lit, has great equipment and a convenient location. Great personal training staff to help you achieve your goals!
Fantastic experience: The culture at JP Fitness is unmatched! The staff truly wants you to succeed and gives you the resources to do so. Gyms usually get the rep that they are scary and super intimidating, but JP is the complete opposite. People from all different fitness levels and backgrounds go here, it’s the most welcoming gym I’ve been to! Seeing first hand from going their since 2022 this gym changing peoples lives and restoring their confidence is pretty remarkable! You can see their clients putting in the work & the results speak for themselves.Finding a gym that feels so welcoming and more like a family while also being results driven is very rare to find. Also, it being 24/7 is a plus so you’re able to workout any time/day without it being closed on holidays like other gyms. If you’ve been on the fence about starting your fitness journey, just try out a complementary session or group class. If you don’t like it there’s no pressure to sign up. The group classes are a nice way to get out your comfort zone and push yourself, but they also offer many modifications in class for any limitations or fitness level. The personal training sessions is a great way to get something more structured to your goals and starting point while also having that 1:1 access and accountability! You have nothing to lose and all to gain from just trying it out! I can’t recommend this place enough!
Fantastic experience: Lily is an amazing trainer and coach. Even on leg day
Fantastic experience: JP Fitness is a great facility with great staff! I love that people can workout outside, even outside of classes. Sauna access is much appreciated as well!
Fantastic experience: Easily the best gym in the Mankato area. The spaces and machines are extremely well maintained and always clean. The friendliness of the staff and other members makes it much more than just a gym membership. Best gym experience day in and day out.
Fantastic experience: Best gym in Mankato! Very very clean space and very nice and friendly staff, I would recommend this gym to anybody looking to just start in their fitness journey or a 10 year gym veteran!

Fantastic experience: Awesome spot to workout and exceptional owner!
Fantastic experience: Jon runs the best gym in Kato. It is hard to truly express my appreciation for JP Fitness. Now that I have moved and am experiencing other gyms I miss it deeply. Always friendly! Always clean! Equipment always maintained! The experience is exceptional compared to any other gym I have been a member.
Fantastic experience: Best in town! It’s not even close.
Hey George, thank you for the review! We enjoy providing training services and a facility that are appreciated by members!
Fantastic experience: Love the facility and the classes!
Hey Angie! Thanks for the review. We love having you in the group sessions! Keep it up!

Working out in such a great atmosphere makes it exciting to go to the gym. I recommend everyone tries one of the group classes! Not to mention it is always so clean and up to par.
Fantastic experience: Best gym in Mankato. Great staff and amenities.
Thanks, Brad!!
Fantastic experience: Best gym experience I’ve ever had! My membership included a personal trainer and full studio access- highly recommend both! It’s always clean, the staff is amazing, good variety of equipment, and I’ve never not felt welcomed. My personal trainers, Mimi and Grace, both have helped me so much with my fitness journey and I’ve seen so much more growth then when I was working out on my own. This gym is definitely worth the investment!
Fantastic experience: Great place to workout! The staff are amazing, gym is extremely clean and the workouts are varied!
Thank you, Lora! We enjoy having you in the early AM! Keep up the consistency!
Fantastic experience: Best gym flat out, but the monthly fee may turn people away.
Hello Oakley! We appreciate the positive review, we are just wondering what 'fee' you are referring to? All of our costs are upfront and explained at the time of joining. No activation fees, no cancellation fees. Let us know if there is something we overlooked, or if you have questions about joining!
Fantastic experience: I have never had a more positive experience at a gym before - and I have tried A LOT of gyms! They are 100% the best in Mankato, if not the whole region. The facility is beautiful, the staff are knowledgeable and welcoming, and most importantly, I don't dread going to the gym because they make it so positive. If you are considering personal training for weight loss or to improve your overall health, I highly recommend taking the plunge! I personally have been working with Bobbi for almost a year and she is the BEST. She really knows what she is doing and has a wonderful personality that is so fun to work with. 10/10 for JP Fitness.
Thank you, Riley! We enjoyed reading your kind words -- it means a lot to us to know you have had such a positive experience. Bobbi is one of our best, and we are lucky to work with clients like you! Keep crushing it!
Fantastic experience: You won't find a better experience.. JP Fitness has top of the line equipment and is very modern. The personal trainers are truly passionate about what they do and will help you in any way possible! The atmosphere is unmatched.. everyone helps everyone. Just an overall great place! Makes me look forward to go to the gym every day!
Thanks Jackson! We appreciate the review of our facility and our staff. We do everything we can to bring a positive, fulfilling experience for our members!
Fantastic experience: I've been with JP fitness for a couple of years and absolutely love it! As someone who hates working out in front of people, the atmosphere and staff make me feel so comfortable and welcomed! Jon has helped me gain knowledge of how to keep an active and healthy lifestyle outside of the gym too! Thanks JP Fitness!
Thanks for the awesome review, Marissa! Keep up the hard work, and communication with us! It helps us help you!
Negative experience: This gym is only good if you join the group classes. They take over in the morning and leave little equipment for anyone else. If you want a gym to do your own thing avoid this place. I cancelled but since they have a confusing cancelation policy. Response to their response. It should be well communicated that they get priority and the class times. That to me makes the gym less useful.
Hey Jonathan! We apologize that your experience has not been great here. We are a training studio first so our training sessions do tend to take up majority of our space. The group area is separate from the rest of the space and we actually have every piece of equipment in the group area available for members that aren’t doing group. This equipment is all available outside of that group footprint. Our busiest time is 5:00am and we are working to provide a larger space for members at that time. In regards to our cancellation policy, there could’ve been some miscommunication during the sign up process and we are willing to work with you on this. Please email us so we can start that conversation. Enjoy your day and we apologize for not providing you with the great customer service we are known for!
Fantastic experience: I love their group classes and all their trainers are fantastic!!
Fantastic experience: Best gym in Mankato for results you can track, measure and see
Fantastic experience: Great space. At the moment they don't have too many members for their space and that makes it great. Its never too crowded, plenty of equipment and well maintained. Also the personal training is top notch. Been working with Bretta from their team and have had intense and educational sessions helping me focus on form and power. Would highly recommend the space and getting some personal training sessions to really help get you started motivationally and to help put together a plan that will get you the results you are seeking.
Fantastic experience: I travel quite a bit for work. As a result, I have used many free passes to local gyms that come with my hotel stays. JP Fitness is second to none. The facility is immaculate, the equipment is well maintained, and the staff is friendly and helpful.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love JP Fitness! Everyone is so supportive and the studio is a welcoming, judge-free zone. All of the trainers do a great job of providing encouraging feedback during the group classes that are intentionally kept small. Classes are offered during a wide variety of times meaning I can get in a great workout in the morning, afternoon, or evening.
Fantastic experience: I have been a member of JP Fitness for over a year now and I can't imagine going anywhere else--I can't say enough great things about this place!! They have top-of-the-line equipment, knowledgeable and helpful staff, and many services and amenities that you just can't get at other gyms in Mankato. Each new member gets a personalized fitness consultation to cater your fitness journey to exactly what it is--YOURS! Whether you want to lose fat, build muscle, gain endurance--Jon and his staff will tell you how to get the most out of your work-outs and which areas to focus on to achieve those goals. I also love the 24-hour studio access, although the schedule for group fitness classes makes them easy to attend, even for people with the busiest of personal lives. Classes are ran by certified personal trainers who are dedicated to making sure you're getting the most out of your work-out, by helping with form and customizing weights and moves to accommodate both personal goals and/or injuries. Last but definitely not least, the heart rate monitoring technology they offer is a great way to track fitness, again making sure you're getting the most of the work-out. I love that I can use it both in the gym and when I'm running or riding bike outside--each work-out being tracked in the same app that can be used to sign up for classes, very convenient! Thanks JP for completely changing the way I see fitness. You've got me as a member for life!
Fantastic experience: The staff at JP is hard working a knows who you are as an individual not as another number walking into the gym. Jon, Mason and Bobbi have been more than supportive and help you work hard towards your goal. I couldn't imagine working out anywhere else in Mankato!
Fantastic experience: I have been going to the small group classes at JP for about 6 months now and love them! The classes keep me accountable for weight training and it has helped keep me more motivated to get in a great workout on a daily basis. As an extra bonus, everyone is super friendly, which makes it more fun.
Fantastic experience: Great Gym. Cannot say enough positive things. The people and the staff are amazing.
Fantastic experience: Great gym!!!! Great guy, love that place.
Fantastic experience: JP Fitness is the best! The small group classes keep me motivated and hold me accountable. The class times are accommodating to my schedule and there is also 24 hour access. JP Fitness and the awesome trainers have helped me become a healthier me!
Fantastic experience: Jon and his entire staff are extremely attentive and friendly. I have been attending the gym for the past 9 months and have learned so much. I have especially loved the small group classes. They are amazing!
Fantastic experience: JP Fitness is a GREAT place to go for a great workout! Jon & his trainers are always there to make sure you have correct form & remember if you have limitations due to past injuries. Classes are fun, challenging & always provide a great workout experience.
Fantastic experience: A Class A Act in my opinion. Been a member now for seven months and have been very pleased. The trainers here are there for you all the way. Thank you JP Fitness!❤️
Fantastic experience: Great small gym. Great place to get some motivation to get in shape. Small group classes are fun and hard. Love it!
Fantastic experience: Awesome atmosphere, great staff, and the best work out equipment I've ever used. I highly recommend JP Fitness.
Fantastic experience: JP Fitness is absolutely awesome. The environment is inviting and the gym is always clean! The Small Group Training sessions are wonderful and cater towards all fitness levels! Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: As Miss Mankato 2017, JP sponsors me. I am so proud to go to the gym there. Jon works incredibly hard for his clients and helps them be the best they can be. I have seen an amazing change in myself from working out there, and now go to the gym as another little home! Everyone there is super supportive, kind, helpful, and truly wants you to succeed. I cannot think of a better place to be!
Fantastic experience: I had started, stopped, and restarted at workout places before, and after working with Jon and his great staff for the last 4 months I can honestly say that this is going to stick. Jon has worked with me to not only get going, but push myself to lift and do exercises in ways that I haven't done since I was in high school, and the best part is that I feel great about myself. The positive attitude of everyone at the gym makes me motivated to keep me coming back!
Hey Adam,
We are happy to have helped make fitness stick in your life now! The last year has been awesome working with you and we are happy to start seeing you more here. Your positive attitude helps keep the energy up! Keep working hard.

Hey Brandon,
We are happy to have you down here! You definitely worked hard in that first session! Keep it up and we will start seeing real results in no time.
-JP
Fantastic experience: I do not even know where to start with complimenting this gym! Before joining JP Fitness I was headed down the negative track. I was so insecure about my workouts. I felt totally judge at other gyms. Then, I walked through the JP Fitness door. Jon welcomed us and gave us a run down. As nervous as I was to start, I gave it a shot. This gym has been game changer in my fitness world. I walk in welcomed, known, and supported each time. I could not be more thankful for the support I get! I highly recommend you take the same chance and walk through the JP Fitness door!
Hey Karissa,
I love the positive experience you've had with us! We enjoy having you in group sessions! To hear you say that you're more comfortable and feel supported makes it all worth it. Keep working hard each week and the progress will pay off.
-JP
Fantastic experience: Awesome gym and great people. One of the best trainers I have worked with, as I have had several!!!!
Hey Char,
We are happy to hear you've found a gym in Mankato that you like! I enjoy training you every Friday and I'm happy to hear you are liking the sessions. Keep up the good work!
-JP
Fantastic experience: Jon's enthusiasm and encouragement drive him and his clients to work smarter and harder. He is an excellent trainer and that is what makes me drive from the cities to Mankato just to train with him!
Thank you Benny!
Fantastic experience: I loved the yoga class! Jon is very involved and knowledgeable and they have a great variety of machines to work out on there.
Hey Lisa,
Glad to hear you enjoyed the yoga classes! We hope to continue some yoga down here at JP Fitness so keep your eyes peeled!
-JP
Positive experience: I really like what I saw clean and friendly knowledgeable staff that knows how to get the most out of you to help realize your dreams.
Hello George,
Thanks for briefly stopping in last month! We are excited to see the photos you were taking to submit to google earth. Since our interaction was short-lived, we were hoping to have the opportunity to increase your 3-star review. We would love to spend more time with you by introducing you to a well-rounded experience here as a member at JP Fitness. We pride ourselves on our members seeing results and getting top of the line customer service. Since we have not had that opportunity to work with you, hopefully we can work something out to get you to see our 5-star service. Thanks again and we will be in touch!
-JP
Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough good things about JP Fitness and about Jon and Danika. I originally was interested in Danika's yoga classes (which I joined and enjoy thoroughly) and then was so pleased I checked out their website and saw that Jon has a lot of experience with rehabilitating people with injuries. I decided to have the initial free consultation and was so impressed with Jon that I decided to give him a try! He completely customized an amazing program built around my hip and knee injury. He made is appropriate to my fitness level and age as well. When I leave there, I am exhausted and tired, but never in pain, or feeling like I was out of my league. He's very careful with my hip injury making sure to pick exercises that will slowly build the muscles back up. He's always asking if it's okay, checking my pain level, etc. Great sense of humor too! The facility is small (which I like) but yet still has a multitude of activities I've never seen before. Just in the week that I have been going there, I've already felt like I am on the right track, and the scale was even kind enough to move a little in the right direction. Can't wait to update this review a few months from now with my progress!
Hey Jen,
We love having you in the studio! It's so much fun during our sessions and I am happy to hear you are seeing the results that you want to see. Your dedication to your health and wellness is something we admire at JP Fitness. Watching you progress when you come to each session is great! We are also happy that you utilize other great avenues like the yoga classes from Danika. She is a great instructor and helps encompass the overall wellness. We are happy to have you as a client and a member!
-JP
Fantastic experience: I started working with Jon October 2015 at LTF-Maple Grove because I had a bad back and needed to do something about it. He was very patient with me and helped strengthen my back, core and total body to where I was feeling stronger and healthier. He worked with me for 6 months and I lost a total of 14 lbs, gained muscle and strength and my overall body image has drastically improved. I feel younger and have so much energy thanks to Jon. He's an incredible trainer and I was very sad to see him go, but wish him the best of luck with his new endeavors. If you are looking for a dedicated, professional trainer Jon Jamieson is your guy!
Hey Ryan,
The results you saw were great! It helped that you followed a lot of the things we outlined on your own and kept yourself accountable. I hope things with you and Liam are going well and I look forward to seeing you again soon. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience!
-JP
Fantastic experience: Jon is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to personal training. I asked Jon to tailor my workouts to golf related fitness and core training and he did just that. Jon is personable and fun to be around. I would highly recommend Jon and JP Fitness to anyone looking to get in shape and have fun doing it.
Hey Ryan,
I hope the golf game improved with some of the exercises we implemented. It was fun chatting with you during our sessions and getting to know you more. I wish the best for you and Cristen! Stop in if you ever come down for a hockey game in Mankato!
-JP
Fantastic experience: I started to see Jon 5 years ago when I moved to the Twin Cities and began work at the University of Minnesota, where he was a student and personal trainer. At this point in my life, I was not in a healthy place physically, including struggles with cholesterol and pre-diabetes. I was headed no where fast with my health and knew I needed to change. In steps Jon, who helped me get back on track. From the beginning, I was comfortable with Jon. Though a student trainer at the time, he was as knowledgeable and helpful as other professional trainers I'd had in the past. He was very easy to work with, has impeccable interpersonal skills, and was a consummate professional. He made me look forward to working out with him, even early in the mornings. He pushed me to be my best self physically with a program that was tailored to my needs, abilities, and goals. He was always willing to answer any questions I had and gave me good homework exercises to keep me going between sessions. Thanks, in no small part to Jon's skills, knowledge, leadership, and motivating style, I am pleased to say that I now have perfect blood pressure, a cholesterol level of 105, and am no longer pre-diabetic. In addition, I now exercise regularly, which is something I did not do five years ago. Though happy for him, I was sad to see him graduate after two years because it meant we could no longer work together. But, he told me I could always ask him fitness questions and I did. He helped me with my workout very recently, in fact. If Jon were starting a business in the Twin Cities, I'd want to be his first client. He is awesome and anyone would be lucky to have him as a trainer. I highly recommend you hire him and I am willing to speak with you personally about my experience with Jon if that is helpful. Frederic MacDonald-Dennis Fan of Jon
Hey Frederic,
This review is more motivational than you know. I was happy to have worked with you during my time at the UM Rec Center and I hope we cross paths again soon. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Stay in touch and I will continue to help you on your healthy way of life path!
-JP
Fantastic experience: I worked with Jon Jamieson as a Fitness Professional as well as had him as my trainer approximately a year ago. I have always been a fit individual but struggled putting on lean body mass. I started at 150 lb. and 12% body fat according to bioelectrical impedance. Jon helped me get to 160 and 10% BF in about 3 months. 2 months after that I was up to 165 lb. and 8.5-9% BF. I have never looked better and I have never been stronger and I have to give Jon a big thanks for helping me achieve my goals. I would only recommend Jon if you actually care about getting results.
Hey Jordan,
Thanks for the review! It was a short 8 months together at Bloomington but we had a great time and saw some great results. I'm happy to know you saw some phenomenal physical benefits. It was awesome seeing you at the Grand Opening and I hope to see you again soon!
