I really enjoy taking classes at Ola Kai. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about what they’re teaching. I was there all last summer and I look forward to coming back again.

I’ve been considering Ola Kai since it opened, and I’m so glad I finally joined. After a month of membership here (and decades of gym memberships all over the place), I can confidently say this gym is exceptional. It is immaculately maintained, the class offerings are strong - the teachers/trainers knowledgeable and encouraging, and the open gym houses all the equipment you could ever need.
Both my husband and I have been attending regularly and couldn’t be happier. The atmosphere is friendly and supportive — never intimidating — and the community is truly what sets it apart. I only wish I had joined sooner.

The Ola Kai team and the whole atmosphere has completely transformed my relationship with going to the gym, and I love it! My mother-in-law and I started going to Ola Kai together, not fully knowing what to expect, but we were quickly convinced to continue. I really really enjoy the class dynamics of Ola Kai. It's definitely a NO judgement zone, all levels are accepted, and the trainers provide modifications for the movements if you need it. I'm happy to support Ola Kai!

Beautiful gym, awesome workouts, great community. My favorite thing about Brigantine other than the beach! Stop in and get a good sweat on before a day of sun, sand and surf! Nothing better!

As an avid Orangetheory member of over 4 years, coming here for a week on vacation made me almost fully change my perspective on fitness: THIS is the way to workout. THIS is the kind of gym I wish I could be part of full time. Keep up the managing work, team!

One of the top gyms I’ve ever visited. CrossFit, boot camp, weight/cardio machines, attentive and friendly coaches. Only complaint is it’s not in Philly!

Ola Kai is such a great and long-needed addition to the island. I bought a 10 pack for the two weeks I was visiting my parents and couldn’t have been happier with my experience. The facilities are pristine and have everything you could possibly need, the trainers are fantastic, and the owners are incredibly friendly. Plus, they’re accommodating for all ages and levels. I even dragged my 69 year old father to the TABATA tone class on my last day and he had a blast. Thanks Christina, Jimmy, and Missy for an amazing 10 days!

Such a great addition to Brigantine! Dropped in this AM to the strength and conditioning, and was so happy with how the instructor modified the workout, but I also learned some new techniques to work on. Feeling tired and with a great boost of oxytocin. Definitely will be back when I’m back in town.

Amazing gym! The coaches are very knowledgeable, highly motivating and extremely nice. The workouts are serious. Put in the work and you will see results. Workouts can be modified and the coaches are very good at ensuring everything can be modified if need be.

The Owners and Instructors are great! They have created a warm and welcoming workout experience for any fitness level in a beautiful new facility. I took circuit training, piloxing, and yoga classes during the summer and loved every class. As a working mom, I was happy to get a challenging workout and a little bit of me time during my weekends at the shore. I look forward to coming back for classes over the winter and next summer! ❤️🤩

Ola Kai is the best thing to come to Brigantine! I've been waiting for a gym that offered a variety of class-based workouts. This is exactly what I needed. Christina and Jimmy are so kind, helpful and passionate about their business. All of the instructors have been wonderful and the classes are fun and challenging.

Ola Kai is one of the nicest facilities with one of the friendliest fitness communities that I have ever been to. I’ve taken CrossFit classes here, but they offer many other types of classes. I can tell you that all the coaches and members are very personable and have positive and encouraging attitudes that make working out at this gym a pleasure. The coaches are mindful of your fitness level and will provide feedback and tailor any of the workouts to help you perform your best and achieve your fitness goals. If you live in the area or are just visiting, I recommend dropping in for a good workout with good people.

I love Olakai! Owners are great, trainers are approachable and knowledgeable, facility is beautiful, everything is clean, plenty of classes and prices are reasonable. I have never been able to exercise on my own so classes are a must for me and the ones they are offering have been excellent. I strongly suggest

What a perfect place for small group fitness training catered for all levels whether you're training for an Ironman or just getting into a fitness routine as a novice. The facility space is amazing with brand new equipment. Everyone can appreciate the care and 100% effort the Ola Kai community (the owners and the instructors all included!) put into making your fitness journey effective and fun! I personally love the circuit burn classes, but I really do enjoy all I have tried so far! Thank you to Jimmy and Christina for making this concept come to life in Brigantine!

I live in brigantine and cherry hill. Up until this summer, I haven’t found a gym that I enjoyed working out in when I’m down in brigantine. When I heard that olakai was opening, I kept checking when they were going to open.

They opened this summer and after my first class with Christina and Jimmy I knew this was my gym home down at the shore. This was the first summer that I continued my normal working out schedule and kept up my fitness routine.

Their classes are able to be modified for every fitness level. I have worked out with all different aged people, and people with different athletic ability. The coaches at Olakai are good at modifying the workout for everyone and fostering a positive environment.

If you are thinking about it, drop in for a class and I’m sure you’ll be hooked.

I'm not generally one to write reviews or LOVE a gym. But I love the classes at Ola Kai!! All the coaches and the owners are warm and welcoming to everyone who comes in the door. Everything is incredible clean and it is SO easy to walk into a new type of class you've never tried before without feeling awkward or uncomfortable because everything is explained to you! And there are options for every fitness level and everyone's personal fitness goals. I can't say enough wonderful things about the positive energy that Ola Kai brings to Brigantine.

I did the circuit strength class as a drop in while I was on vacation. I wish I lived closer so I could attend more classes! The space was big and bright and the trainer was great. If you’re visiting for vacation, it’s worth your time if you’re looking to get a sweat in.

I needed to update my review after 4 classes.

For years I’ve been working out almost every day. Circuit training, boot camps, strength, Pilates, everything. This…. Left me SOREEEEE.
Incredible workout. Well-balanced with knowledgeable staff.

My first review after 1st class: I was hoping a place like this would open in Brigantine. I took one class and I was hooked. Also owned by a really nice husband and wife super into fitness so it really feels warm and welcoming!

Ola Kai is a really wonderful space! So happy to have something like this in Brigantine. I have been attending the Circuit Strength classes and feeling so motivated to keep working toward my goals. If you are in Brigantine, definitely check it out. Very worth taking a ride over if you are off the island!
