I am beyond disappointed. Upon recommendation @theloftatlanta (on instagram) I hired @_iamdede(Dede Thompson) for $700 for 3 months not including the$29.95 a month to work out at the loft ( which she failed to mention). The first day I came to the loft from Lawrenceville a 45 minute commute. I reached out to Dede to tell her I arrived only for her to text me to come to her apartment complex instead ( on Briarcliff Rd). She cancels without warning and repeatedly. For example she canceled my 4 pm session to go to the owner's anniversary party which started later that night. The final straw was the audacity of her to cancel 4 out of 5 consecutive sessions. Of course she denied me a refund. I even reached out to the loft no response.PLEASE BE ADVISED SHE'S CONSTANTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS BECAUSE SHE CAN'T KEEP THEM. DEDE IS MONEY HUNGRY AND DOESN'T CARE ABOUT HER CLIENTS. Attached is another Yelp review from a previous client of Dede.

This was my first experience at the Loft and it was amazing! I attended the Wednesday Trap Zumba class with trainer Amber and she did not disappoint. The instructor was on point; she never tired out and kept up the momentum of the class. class was 60 minutes and you will need plenty of water. The price for the class was very reasonable ($15); you can also access the class via zoom ($10) if you're not comfortable coming in person. The instructor was on point; she never tired out and she kept up the momentum of the class. I don't like working out and would avoid gyms due to my short attention span trying to use equipment. However, I don't mind investing in a workout plan that I will enjoy, have fun, and covers cardio. What I like about this place is that there is a live DJ playing the music as you workout and it's neber a dull moment. There are several class instructors and classes you can choose from. I will attend again.

  • Andrea G

Overall I would say it’s a decent gym. However, the trainer I had, Ricky Reynolds, is extremely inappropriate, disrespectful, and condescending. He has texted me for hookups with my friends. And shared way too much bout his personal life. Which made me very. uncomfortable. He has called me cussing me out for a simple misunderstanding. So unprofessional. He is unstable . He took my payment last week after hounding me. Then After berating me for not knowing how to do a specific workout, canceled my training. I had to go through upper management to find a resolution, which I am still not happy with. He is a liar, a cheat, and a scammer. If this is the type of person that the loft will employ, beware! This person and their character reflects poorly on the loft as a business and brand.

  • D M

Yoooo everybody's super nice in this place. It was a little difficult to find but I'm glad I did. Make sure you don't park in the parking spots though. Follow suit and park along the curb like everyone else. Yeen special. Lol. Anyway, there are multiple personal trainers here who all seem to have great workout plans yet different ways of getting the job done. And they all look good as hell too. Geez. There is also a smoothie shop in the back for protein shakes or something. It's pretty good. And bleachers on one side of the room for spectating. Although you should go to workout. They also have "Trap Zumba" which looked really fun and seemed to be getting the job done. Go here

  • Sheila Johnson

Good group of qualified trainers with different skills sets in this gym. The key to great personal training is finding the right trainer that matches the client’s preferred training style. I worked with Power, the training director, to find the right trainer for what I wanted to work on. He took time to understand my wants and how I like to train and paired me with a trainer that matched my style. They also have a lot of good classes offered at night and on weekends. They offer a lot and it can overwhelming. Just ask questions and tell them what you want from training styles to packages.

  • Tatii Too Turnt

I’ve been attending this gym for 4 months now and I WISH i knew about it wayyy sooner. My trainer Nick is awesome, so nice and listens. Then I started attending the classes and I’m addicted now …every single male and female I’ve met has been so nice. I say hi to everyone and no one has ever been mean. Ladies i want to note I like to think I’m cute and no guy has ever tried to hit on me like at regular gyms. This place is top tier , don’t wait …attend one of the classes TODAY ( Trampolean Fitness Every Monday @ 7:30 PM is my Fav )

  • Jiggle Balls

Let me start off by saying several things dede Thompson is the absolute worst. She does nothing, cancels multiple times, takes peoples money and refuses to give refunds. Another point is the owners of the loft are promoting this behavior she has stolen from multiple clients tarnished their name and they continue to promote her and employ her that is absurd they need to hold people on their payroll accountable, switching locations and keeping the same sorry trainers is bad business for Dede to be a preachers daughter she needs to find God.

  • Davita L. Washington

I went here for a step fitness class on Thursday and the class was high energy and fun! Definitely will get a great workout and sweat on. I would recommend that for people in the back they should show the demonstrations of the steps in the front and back of class so everyone can see. Also they definitely need better air circulation because it’s uncomfortably hot/humid with the number of people they allow in the class and given covid they should have better air flow. Other than that I will be coming again for more classes.

  • McCene Hayes

I first started the loft with Litraining’s twerk class and the ambiance energy and set up was EVERYTHING! I’ve recently added Dante the body and EJ’s v step to help with my cardio ! I have never worked out for longer than a few weeks, but The Loft is helping it become a lifestyle ! I have a dance class today and glute camp after and I can’t wait ! The loft has soooo many different ways to get active! So check it out and STOP making excuses!

  • Mario Johnson

What a great gym facility! As a business owner I am very big on customer service. The staff is always friendly and pleasant. Cree does an amazing job with new members and always makes you feel welcome walking through the door. All of the trainers are helpful and welcoming. You don’t have to be an expert body builder or super athlete to feel comfortable. I highly recommend The Loft Athletic Club to anyone looking for a new gym to call home.

  • Nurse Saina

This is my absolute favorite gym! I drive 45 mins to come here. I’ve been coming here since March and the energy is unmatched! The Trampolean Fit class with Brittany and the Glute Camp are my absolute favorites!! Everyone there is soooooo supportive and kind. I also love how it’s so inclusive, with people of all different body types on their fitness journey. It definitely has a family supportive type of feel you can’t get at another gym.

  • Latonya Jackson

Do not go to this gym…. I had deedee (acv fitness)as a trainer and she was a complete scam. I was ripped off on my last session trainer was always late and pulling no calls no show. I’m out of 500 and now I have to sue in court. In 8 months she canceled over 30 times. There are better gyms that care about there customers. My goal was to gain I didn’t reach that goal I had to get a second trainer because she lacked so bad.

  • Shaniece Bradley

Went here for the Step Class on Thursdays “Get down stay down” with EJ. Class is lit!! Such good vibes and energy! The Loft is just a vibe! So many different classes to match anyones fitness level! If you haven’t already stopped by please do! Also check out Dance Fit on Tuesday’s and 6:30 with King Micheal and afterwards Glute Class with the beautiful Mrs2weeksout.

  • Dee Williams

  • Melinda Galette

I owe the growth I've made in the last 15 months to this place. It started with Jason! I literally tell anyone who ask, that man is the BOMBBBBB! G is the funniest, coolest, person ever, love him! Due to scheduling conflict I've since moved onto James !!! I wouldn't trade any of the relationships I've made with a soul! 10/10 recommend <3

  • Nicey

I drive 2.5 hrs every week to go to the Wednesday LRKCamp they host here! I have also gone for the Twerk N Sweat cardio class on Saturdays, and would like to go up for a Self Care Sunday yoga class. This place and these people are amazing, and ready to welcome anyone and everyone serious about their fitness. 12/10 HIGHLY recommend

Today was my first time visiting this gym. I attended an event where they had 3 classes back to back to back. The energy from all the instructors was EVERYTHING! You could tell they are very passionate about what they do! Nothing but positive energy from beautiful black women! I will definitely be making this my HOME GYM!!!

  • Omaha Macericm

Dede is disgusting all she does is take people’s money to pay her rent and doesn’t work them out but you constantly check on her page and see her promoting the same photos from when she was big she may have motivation to get herself to a good space but when it comes to other she takes their money and does nothing

  • Linda

I love the business of this black owned gym that features music & routines by us, for Every BODY! Literally. I only wish there were more classes & more space to move in the classes.

Glute camp was bomb. Good music & great instructor. Limited parking. Location may be hard to find. Just follow anyone you see walking with athletic gear on. Huge space. Reminds me of a warehouse but nice.

  • Ebony Romero

I’ve been here for a fitness class and the class is amazing. However, this gym is so small and gaining a lot of popularity so they definitely need an improved parking lot and just a bigger space overall.

It’s not what they make it on social media. It’s very small in there and you really can’t work out and can only go in there when your trainer in there.
