Orange Shoe Personal Fitness Trainers - Madison University Ave

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing gym! I have been going to Orange Shoe for several years, and the instructors are consistently enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and professional. They can help you tweak movements in response to your unique physiology and needs (historic injuries, pains, range of motion, etc.). I would particularly recommend this gym if you would like support weightlifting. Check them out!

Experiencia fantástica: Great coaches, instruction and a lot of guidance.

Experiencia fantástica: I love working out at Orange Shoe especially my bro time with Bryce aka Hermes! All the trainers are great, the equipment is first class, and the results speak for themselves.

Experiencia fantástica: Great Staff all around Knowledgeable, personable and encouraging

Experiencia fantástica: Very welcoming fitness studio with small group classes and personal training.

Experiencia fantástica: My trainer is excellent and a positive influence on me every day I exercise. In addition, I have a lot of chronic pains and she is always adjusting my exercises on the fly. This is the first exercise regime I've stayed on without injuring myself.

Experiencia fantástica: I have truly enjoyed working together with Eden! She came highly recommended to me and in turn I would absolutely recommend her to others as a fitness and personal trainer. She has knowledgeably provided exercises and strength training that are tailored to my personal needs and which are clearly helping me to achieve my fitness goals. Thank you so much to Eden and Orange Tree!

Experiencia fantástica: Eden is great! She tailors the training to your needs and goals. Note: I am a senior citizen and am finding these sessions excellent to maintain my mobility. She is reliable, flexible, and friendly, and makes the best use of her time with you. I would highly recommend Eden and Orange Tree.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been doing sessions with Maggi for several years now and she always has such a great attitude, comes prepared and makes our workouts together fun and exciting!

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic training and very welcoming staff who do a great job catering to each individuals needs.

Experiencia fantástica: Great local spot - am always at Eden’s classes. Always willing to adapt for fitness levels and needs.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going to Orange Shoe for the last couple of months. I can already feel the difference in my fitness level. Bryce, Eden, Maggie and Ryan are all great at creating custom workouts targeting different muscle groups and keeping the classes fun. Give it a try, your body will thank you!

Experiencia fantástica: I was surprised they accepted me at all because of my age and also because I only live in Madison six months of the year. But they did and I am grateful for all the attention I received from the patient and dedicated staff. The four trainers I worked with are skillful and knowledgeable. Highly recommended!

Experiencia fantástica: All the trainers are great here, and I enjoy going here all the time, but I've got to give props to Maggi for being consistently great (on top of caring about progress on fitness and life she is seemingly always in a good mood!) - if I could give more than 5 stars, I would!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been going to University Ave OSG since it opened. The studio creates a positive and motivating environment. Most importantly, it was easy to create a routine. Going to the gym is fun and not a chore. Trainers are great!

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic to have such high quality functional fitness coaches that evaluate what your problems are (in my case back pain) and work with you to get your body moving better. No meatheads here. Just encouraging and gently challenging coaches.

Experiencia fantástica: The Orange Shoe University team has created a supportive and empowering environment. They have motivated me to keep coming back for 4 years and I’m not stopping anytime soon.

Experiencia fantástica: All the trainers are wonderful about adjusting the exercises to accommodate my weaknesses/disabilities—without judgment. The others in class do not judge either

Experiencia fantástica: I've been doing personal training one-on-one with Maggie Hilgers for several months now. Absolutely fantastic! Such a relief to have her eyes to make sure I have proper form and make progress! So happy that I found her and Orange Shoe!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve worked out with Maggi at Orange Shoe for almost two years, and it’s always fresh and invigorating. She’s attentive and well-informed. Her exercises are challenging and creative, and she modifies as she goes to make sure I get a workout that’s tailored to my needs every time.

Experiencia fantástica: I love it! Wish I joined sooner. A colleague at work told me about OS. Lots of laughter with group, expert and encouraging trainers (Bryce, Eden, and Maggie), and the time just goes by quickly. Highly recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: Great welcoming place for people of all ages to build strength with expert instructors

Experiencia fantástica: I’m excited to be back at Orange Shoe’s small group classes! After a 3 year break (pandemic + baby), I’m looking forward to their classes again . The instructors are so positive and empowering. I already feel stronger after 3 weeks of being back and looking forward to a lot more!

Experiencia fantástica: Maggi is a great trainer that finds fun ways to keep me active! I'm consistently seeing results!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome team! Maggi is such a caring, empowering trainer.

Experiencia fantástica: Eden has been a wonderful trainer! I came to her feeling very weak and unsure of my capabilities postpartum and in just 3 months and she has helped me feel stronger than pre-baby!

Experiencia fantástica: I really enjoy working out at Orange Shoe. My trainers’ contagious energy and their encouragement keeps me motivated, and I feel so much stronger than when I started eight months ago. Mondays classes with Bryce are my favorites.

Experiencia fantástica: I joined Orange Shoe just over three months ago and I love the small class size, circuit format and friendly trainers. I was a member of a larger gym for several years, but have realized that my self-directed workouts didn't push me as hard, and weren't as well rounded, as the 1 hour classes I get at Orange Shoe. I also truly appreciate the trainers, who are not only knowledgable, but also fun. They make an effort to get to know each of the members in the class, and it really brings camaraderie to the workouts.

Experiencia fantástica: We love working out at Orange Shoe, all our trainers have been outstanding. Tonight’s class with Bryce was very good.

Experiencia fantástica: Bryce, Maggi, and Eden rock. They put together challenging and unique workouts while providing a nice personal touch and being mindful of personal goals, and injuries

Experiencia fantástica: Kind staff who are very invested in your experience and long-term success. Worked better for me than any other gym has.

Experiencia fantástica: It’s dope. The people are great, workouts are engaging and challenging. The space and equipment is very clean. Maggi, Eden, Bryce, Lauren all dope. It’s a very cool community.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been coming here for the last two years, and as someone who struggles with motivation and creating my own workout plan, Orange Shoe has been amazing. All the trainers here are great! Bryce, Eden, Maggie and Ryan cater to our individual capabilities and needs in each session. Everyone is helped to meet their exercise goals in a positive and patient way.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been working out at Orange Shoe for over 6 months now and love it! The staff is so friendly and outgoing. They push you but only to your comfortable level. Great location!

Experiencia fantástica: Bryce is the best trainer! I look forward to working out with him every week!

Experiencia fantástica: I absolutely love my sessions at Orange Shoe! I feel 1000% better than I did this time last year and am excited to keep going!

Experiencia fantástica: I enjoy the small class size, personal attention, and atmosphere of Orange Shoe. I especially like the varied whole-body work outs.

Experiencia fantástica: Phenomenal small group training sessions! Bryce and Eden know how to tailor each session to the individual while keeping the flow going for the group. They are encouraging and supportive (and sometimes a little brutal), which is just what I need. I'll admit...when it comes to fitness, I can be kind of a quitter, but the team here is so good that it makes it easy to stick with the classes - and the results are noticable. I love that they are constantly doing their best to keep the sessions fun, challenging and fresh. And the other folks taking the classes are chill too, which makes a difference!

Experiencia fantástica: I love working out at Orange Shoe University Ave! The trainers and environment are truly the best!

Experiencia fantástica: I have always struggled to have consistent and productive workouts, but the trainers at Orange Shoe on University Ave have created an environment which is supportive and motivating and kept me coming back several times a week for more than a year! Eden, Maggi, and Bryce are so patient and encouraging while challenging me at a pace that works well for me. This has been my best experience for physical training!

Experiencia fantástica: I have tried many gyms and trainers over the years, I can confidently say the trainers at the University Orange Shoe are the best I have worked with. They listen to your goals and help you work towards them. They have the skill and knowledge to chose exercises that work with your body. That includes working to help overcome an injury or better align your body so that it moves in a balanced way. And they do all of that while being some of the nicest and kindest people, you can count on walking out feeling better physically and mentally then when you walked in. No matter how busy my week is, working out at University Orange Shoe is the one activity I don't skip.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent expertise that is personalized to any particular goal areas or ailments. Staff are motivating, always encouraging patrons to push themselves in a safe and comfortable manner. Fellow patrons are enthusiastic and give a feeling of team unity.

Experiencia fantástica: As someone who, historically, hasn't "loved" working out, but is active, something about the exercise and the culture at this gym clicks for me. Great people and trainers who care, the classes have kept me coming back for 2 years. Definitely worth a try if other gyms haven't fit for you in the past.

Experiencia fantástica: Working out at this studio is the highlight of my day. Really made me enjoy going to the gym. Amazing

Experiencia fantástica: I have worked with Eden at this location for over a year now in personal training sessions, and I would definitely recommend working with her! I had never done strength training before and my goal was to start a routine of regular exercise where I didn't dread going to the gym. She has done a great job of designing workouts that have improved my skills but never made me dislike working out.

Experiencia fantástica: The trainers are fantastic and have made it easy and fun for me to get back into working out. I can't thank them enough!!

Experiencia fantástica: I contacted Orange Shoe on University Ave with the specific goal of getting ready for a ski trip after more than a decade away from the sport. Maggi and Eden tailored a personal workout regimen for me that was specific to the exact strength and stability training I needed to enjoy my trip injury-free. I recommend them both highly especially for people who want to safely get back into physical activity after time away.

Experiencia fantástica: I worked with Eden at the Orange Shoe location on University Ave, and she was incredibly helpful as a prenatal personal trainer. My goals in working with her were to have a pain-free pregnancy, stay in shape to be able to keep up with my toddler, and prepare my body for an unmedicated birth experience. Eden took my goals very seriously and helped me accomplish all of them. She knew which exercises were best during pregnancy, took into consideration the kinds of activities I was doing with my toddler, and also worked with me to strengthen my pelvic floor, open my hips, and help my baby drop. All of this was particularly beneficial in that it helped me almost completely avoid the SI joint pain I experienced with my first pregnancy. Eden also helped me get back into some movement in my postpartum period once I had been cleared for exercise, and her gentle guidance and kindness made it feel not so intimidating. I would recommend working with Eden at Orange Shoe for prenatal and postnatal fitness training 10/10!

Experiencia fantástica: Bryce is one of the best trainers I have worked with since I starting exercising with trainers ~8 years ago. Have been happy here for +3 years.

Experiencia fantástica: Very friendly and welcoming environment

Experiencia fantástica: Eden is great. She’s incredibly knowledgeable, and she’s watchful in our personal training sessions, encouraging me to correct my form, and working carefully to tailor our sessions to my goals and needs. I’m stronger and better equipped to stay physically active and healthy, thanks to Eden!

Experiencia fantástica: We have been attending classes with Bryce for about 10 months. Bryce is an extremely knowledgeable and patient instructor. We were fairly new to working out in a group format and he made it both comfortable and fun for us. Even in a group setting, he is able to provide personalized coaching, feedback, and celebrations. We have been successfully working towards our wellness goals while enjoying the classes and meeting new people. We would highly recommend training with Bryce at Orange Shoe!

Experiencia fantástica: My experience at Orange Shoe has been wonderful. The atmosphere at Orange Shoe is so welcoming and positive that it has been a joy to train there. My personal trainer, Eden, is knowledgeable, encouraging, and tailors workouts to my needs. As someone who played competitive golf for many years and came out with an injured back, I was nervous about starting a weight training program. However, the trainers at Orange Shoe are able to guide me through workouts that are highly effective but also protect my back. On a practical note, I really appreciate that the space is always neat, clean, and organized (unlike most gyms!). If you are looking for a personal trainer or group fitness classes in Madison, Orange Shoe is definitely the place to go!

Experiencia fantástica: Bryce is AWESOME! It was so good as a student to see an example of a great coach. Cues were on point and easy to understand, and he was so positive! Thank you Bryce, you made my day!

Experiencia negativa: Predatory in professional business that has made no less than 2 fraudulent charges to my account in the first month. I am going to be canceling the card due to their actions.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been attending small group training since opening in July 2019. The facilities are great and the trainers are wonderful. The trainers are always watching clients for form corrections and changes to challenge us.

Experiencia fantástica: I love Orange Shoe. The trainers are personable and meet you where you are on your fitness journey. I joined a few months after having foot surgery and I never felt like I was over my head in classes. I was given modifications and suggestions that helped my strength and balance. Now I feel stronger and healthier than I ever have. It's been 2 years since my surgery and I wouldn't be where I am in my progress without Orange Shoe. Covid hasn't stopped them, either. The Zoom classes are great. You still get personal attention and a great workout.

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym with the one-on-one personalization & flexibility in scheduling I need! Have trained here for over a year & consistently learn new exercises! Love it!

Experiencia fantástica: This is a fantastic gym!! All the trainers are great listeners and take an interest in you no matter what fitness level you’re at. I really like how they have listened to my history and my previous injuries and have suggested modifications during class. They have found ways to make virtual classes engaging and super impactful. So far, a great experience!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been working out with Orange Shoe (University Avenue, mostly with Bryce) for around a year now. I wasn’t fit at all when I started, but even in my earlier days, when I was considering myself fit, I had troubles with stairs or going uphill, or simply with standing for a long time. My biggest revelation with Orange Shoe is that these troubles disappeared in a matter of months of exercising with OS (mostly thanks to the glutes workout). Similarly, I always used to have some muscle ache, and always had to ask my wife to massage me. These days that happens only if I skip one or two sessions at OS. Add to this how much better I look, how much better I feel, and it is clear why I find this one my best ‘investments’. I don’t even hate working out anymore! All the coaches I worked there have finished or are close to graduating in kinesiology. They know what they are doing, and you quickly realize that your movements are hitting the target muscles. My coach also has a lot of interest and experience in physiotherapy, and he helped me several times with some smaller joint or muscle problems. Hey, he even taught me a new method of tying shoelaces, which saved me two pairs of sneakers.

Experiencia fantástica: The Orange Shoe trainers are personable and knowledgeable. With Safer-At-Home in effect, they have shown themselves to be imaginative, too, adapting workouts that effectively make use of whatever is available. Trainers design sessions to accommodate my goals and how I'm feeling week to week. I haven't felt this strong in years.

Experiencia fantástica: I love the personal attention I receive to my fitness goals, from every instructor here! After years at other gyms and doing different workouts, I found a place that I hate missing a session at, and crave when I'm away! Thanks Andrew and Team!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I really like this place! All the trainers are excellent and they have offered so much energy to me.

Experiencia fantástica: Orange Shoe on University has a brilliant team of trainers. They're fun, they know their stuff, and they focus on the right things. I have not only seen physical results, but recognize the benefits to my mental health, as well. I am so grateful I found them and could not be happier. Most highly recommended.

Experiencia fantástica: I have been a member for the last couple of months and I am really enjoying the trainers and the personalized workouts. I appreciate that they work with my busy schedule, and truly take an interest in my goals. The trainers watch my form and give me the needed direction to correct it so I am getting the most out of the workout. I was a bit skeptical at first, but have nothing but praise for trainers Andrew and Bryce. I am looking forward to seeing what more I can accomplish and learn from them. Thanks! Thomas Scheid

Experiencia fantástica: I am so grateful to have found Orange Shoe after a not-so-great experience with a previous trainer. Andrew really listens to my needs/goals and tailors my workouts accordingly. I am not someone who typically enjoys working out, but I find myself looking forward to these sessions!

Experiencia fantástica: I love the new Orange Shoe on University. With working full time and having a family, I was struggling to commit to exercising regularly. Since I started at Orange Shoe, I have been able to work out 3-4 times per week for several months now. The trainers are fantastic. I've been impressed by their knowledge of physiology, proper technique and the ability to guide and correct me. I feel like I am finally learning how to exercise correctly in a way that maximizes the benefits without injuring myself. What I love most about the personal training and many of the small group classes is that they are offered in 30 minute slots. It's a balanced workout delivered in an efficient way. It is not only easy to fit into my schedule but psychologically, I am much more willing to go because 30 minutes is totally do-able. Now, three months into working out at Orange Shoe, I'm feeling physically and mentally better. My back hurts less, I feel like I am getting stronger and I feel better about myself. I highly recommend it!

Experiencia fantástica: Great trainers, excellent programs, and super convenient location. Have been working out here for over 3 months and have never felt more motivated!

Experiencia fantástica: As someone who was very timid about personal training, the staff welcomed me in so nicely! The professionalism as well as relatability with all of the trainers is incredible. The staff at OS are beyond skilled at working with all types of fitness levels. Andrew and team really created a wonderful space for all different body types to come in, challenge themselves, and support one another. They provide individualized personal training as well as group classes that integrate in your own personal fitness routine. You can always count on a good laugh, or dad jokes while working up a sweat. I'm beyond happy I found this place, and highly recommend. Andrew, Lauren, Bryce, and Kellen thank you for being amazing humans, helping people find that fitness is fun, and putting up with me!

Experiencia fantástica: I love how clean this new space is and how friendly everyone is. The trainers actually care and listen! Thanks Andrew for all you do!
