I LOVE this place. It has become my sanctuary. I needed something to add into my lifting regimen while also centering my body and mind...this is the holy grail. The staff is welcoming, knowledgeable, and kind. The facilities are SO clean and smell amazing. It's honestly the Ritz Carlton of fitness. You have Pilates|Yoga on one side (and it's HOT so you SWEAT) and Fitness and performance on the other side. So happy my friend introduced me to this place!

Booked a private barre/pilates fusion class for my bachelorette party. We absolutely loved the workout, it was challenging, the heat and playlist was perfect. Margo was an amazing instructor. I would be a regular if I lived here! Thank you!

I have been going to EMotion for almost a year. Absolutely love the studio. A little something for everyone and for all levels. Staff are very helpful and friendly and they create a very welcoming, clean environment. My favorite classes are Hot Mobility with Chris (for those who always forget to stretch) and Yin (for anyone who has struggles with relaxing and holds stress).

Fantastic gym with all the equipment you need for a great strength or conditioning workout with amazing owners and trainers and a chill vibe. I was on vacation looking for a gym in Wrightsville beach / Wilmington and found this gem. Troy, the owner, reached out personally before my first session to ensure everything goes smoothly which just goes to show the level of care and attention that permeates everything at this gym. The equipment is clean and plentiful - particularly impressed with the kettlebell line-up with multiples for each weight increment. I only used the fitness part, so can't speak on the yoga studio, but based on the interactions between trainers and regulars I witnessed, safe to say any class at this gym will be time and money well spent!

If you’re in Wilmington, NC and care about intentional, intelligent movement — Emotion Fitness is where you need to be. Every class is thoughtfully programmed to support not just strength, but posture, mobility, and long-term performance. The coaching goes beyond surface-level hype — it’s rooted in real knowledge of how the body (and brain) work.

I love this studio and all of the instructors I’ve had the pleasure of taking class with. I’ve only tried the barre, Pilates, and yoga classes, but they have all been wonderful so far. The variety of classes is great and there seems to be something perfect for all different levels (very beginner friendly through advanced). Their first time student intro rate is really great and I would recommend checking it out for anyone looking to get into a new fitness routine! In fact, I probably would have paid the intro rate ($25 for 15 days unlimited!) for just one class (I mean, honestly, that is a good deal for a single drop in class at most other studios!)
All of the staff have been so lovely, helpful, and kind. Haley at the front desk has been especially wonderful!! Definitely check out this studio if you are in Wilmington☺️

I’ve been going to emotion for about two months now, and cannot say enough good things about it! Each workout is so challenging, but led by such amazing coaches who give such positive feedback and have helped me feel so confident in my workouts. The community is so welcoming and I look forward to class because I know it’s always going to be a blast! The variety of classes offered makes every week full of different options for every day. Highly recommend!!

This is hands down the best gym I’ve ever belonged to in my 20 years of working out. The trainers design programs to best achieve your goals while taking into consideration any injuries or physical problems. I have reached several goals since joining in late April and I continue to see improvement overall. I’m in the best shape of my life because of the great people who work here.

I absolutely LOVE E.MOTION! I have always been the type to want to try different types of workouts, but have always been intimidated trying something new. I started with what I knew in HIIT workouts and Cardio classes and fell in love with the set up of the facility, people, and the environment of each class. I was blown away by the kindness and professionalism presented from the coaches and staff at every visit. Being a new member, they made a point to learn my name and greeted me by name every time I joined a class. Having never done true strength training yoga or Pilates before, each class was set up for any and all levels. The coach of each class made you feel empowered to try something new, and support new movements by excellent coaching and technique, even with 15+ members in a class, you still felt like the class was built for you! This is my top choice to anyone who wants to expand their fitness abilities, meet some amazing people and learn from experts to elevate your abilities!

Mark Jonjock's skill and expertise with injury recovery is unparalleled—it’s like having a PT and a personal trainer in one! Anna's corrections and know how with proper technique, Skyler's ability and energy with the group workouts--he's encouraging but not pushy and respectful of physical limitations so I trust I won’t get hurt. And the general friendly and still professional atmosphere of all staff creates a welcoming environment for any age 💗🙌🏼🙏

E-Motion Studio is an absolute GEM of a gym! From the moment you walk in, you can feel the positive energy, the good vibes, and the sweet feel of community. The space is beautiful, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed, making every workout feel like an absolute treat. The cold eucalyptus scented towel they give you at the end of your workout in the warm/hot room is THE BEST! It's just one of the many ways they are thoughtful in their client experience! I'm a girly that has a lot of questions because I want to make sure I do not injure myself, and everytime I stay after class to ask about technique, they are always SO kind, knowledgeable, encouraging, and happy to help! I am SO grateful to have E-Motion Studio here in Wilmington!!

I have been coming to E Motion for several months now. I LOVE it here. I have been religiously going to the warm Barre classes every Tuesday and Thursday. I am now adding the Saturday morning hot yoga class every week. Not only are the classes and instructors AWESOME, but they also have convenient class times to fit anyone's schedule. The mood of the studio is very warm and inviting. Even if I have had a hectic day, I always feel better leaving. I have been to a lot of group fitness classes in Wilmington, E Motion is hands down the best!!

Almost 1 year ago I walked into E-motion feeling defeated with a 6 year old shoulder injury that left me unable to throw a ball, lift my arm overhead, or carry in groceries. I met with Troy and went through a semi-personal training consult where he told me that him and his team would be able to help me throw a ball again. I was skeptical after so many failed treatments but decided to sign up for a membership anyways. Nearly a year later, Troy and his team have proved me wrong in the best way possible. I can now overhead press and have joined a wiffleball team since I can throw a ball again, which I never thought was possible. The coaches designed a workout plan for me based on how many days a week I wanted to come in and worked with me every step of the way, modifying exercises and my plan as needed. As a complete beginner when I started, they taught me how to do all of the exercises in my program. The coaches and the other people who exercise at E-motion are a wonderful, encouraging, and non judgmental community who want to see others succeed. It has taken hard work and consistency, but I am so happy with my experience at E-motion. When my lease ended and I had to find a new place to live, I specifically looked for places near E-motion so I could continue working out there. I wholeheartedly recommend E-motion to everyone. Troy and his wife Macy have truly created something special with E-motion.

I signed up for a 2 week trial at Emotion because I was in the area temporarily, and I fell in love with this gym and their mission immediately! I only got to meet a small percentage of the staff and one of the owners, but each one was extremely knowledgeable, personable and welcoming. As far as the workouts, it was exactly what I was looking for and unlike any other gym I’ve ever been to. The range of options offered on both the fitness and studio side made me feel like, for the first time ever, I had the opportunity with one membership to give my body exactly what it needed. I cannot express enough how much I appreciate this community, especially being completely new to the area. I hope to be back soon!

My now husband and I recently had our Wedding in Wilmington, and the girls of the Bridal Party wanted to do something a little different before the big day, so we ventured into E-Motion!
There were 8 girls in our group, and we took a Floor Pilates Class with Margaux. To say it was the best time is an absolute understatement. We had laughs and smiles, all the while getting the best workout.
We would highly recommend E-Motion to anyone, and if we lived in Wilmington, we would all absolutely come back!
A special thank you to Olivia who arranged our entire set-up!

I've been coming to Emotion for a few years now and it has become way more than just getting a good sweat in. I had zero weight training/gym experience when I first joined the fitness side of Emotion and was pretty intimated to begin but I am now addicted! The coaches do such an incredible job at making you feel comfortable, educated on the movements/form, and know how to push you so far past your limits while keeping it lighthearted and leaving you with a smile on your face! The coaches are also so incredibly kind and personable not just with your fitness journey but personal life as well. Macy and Troy have done an amazing job at creating the welcoming supportive community that is Emotion! Coming into the studio or gym is one of the best parts of my day and I'm so grateful for the kindness from each and every one of their staff. I truly feel the strongest and most confident in my physical training that I have in years and its all thanks to Emotion. <3

I absolutely love the coaching and community at E-Motion Studio and Fitness! I began working out on the studio side with FITT classes, Pilates, Barre and Yoga. Having worked out for many years, I was looking for a gym to fit my needs and provide opportunities to reach new goals in fitness. I was also searching for knowledgeable instructors that would modify exercises if needed. E-Motion instructors bring their dynamic personalities to each and every class. They are always available to help with form and technique and base their coaching tips on every member's needs to communicate. After a few months, I joined the E-Motion fitness side and increased my strength and endurance within weeks. Thanks again to skilled coaches that hold members accountable to their personal goals. I believe the results obtained thru working out directly relates to the effort put in. The trainers at E-Motion are there to make the effort put in a whole lot more effective and fun.

Overall great instructors! Love their Pilates, barre, and yoga classes. Clean facility. I was going to get a membership here, but ALL of their Pilates classes are during regular work hours (9am-4pm) except Saturdays at like 9 am. Kind of only catering to students/retirees/non working people… if they scheduled some Pilates to a weekday 5/6 am class and 6 pm class 3-4x a week, it would be worth it. Most people who do Pilates want to do it at least 2-3x a week and you just can’t here if you work a 9 to 5 job. There’s definitely a demand for more Pilates early mornings and later in the evenings in Wilmington.
Their classes are very jam packed. I think if they snagged a bigger facility eventually, similar to a Trufusion that accommodates around 50 per room comfortably, they would do really well for themselves and have happier members.
Also, they need shades in their main room if they haven’t already next to the front desk on the windows. Those windows are blinding trying to see the instructor and make the room even hotter in the afternoons it was torture when I last went.

When I started at EMOTION, I felt like I had plateaued in my performance, but their programing has gotten me to my strongest self so far. EMOTION has become a part of my daily routine - love this place!!

Started working out with this group a little over a year ago and never looked back. Really can't find a better group of coaches in town!

Before going in I was really intimidated by the idea of classes/group fitness, but now I’ve come to really enjoy it! The energy from all of the instructors has helped foster growth within myself on many levels. I’ve noticed changes in my performance through the fitness side and on a deeper level through the studio. Everyone is so welcoming, and they do a great job of making it feel like more of a community rather than just a gym. Would def recommend!

This place is amazing! Not only is it a wonderful place to work and warm community to be apart of, but the classes are top notch. The standards here are unlike any other studio in town, and every single person who walks through the door feels welcome and appreciated. I’m super grateful to be apart of this team, and apart of the entire community here.
P.S. They make amazing smoothies and you should totally order one for after class. 😊

This place is truly amazing and not just because the classes / instructors are exceptional but it fosters such an inclusive and uplifting community! E•motion has shown me what it’s like to workout because you want to not because you have to. I highly recommend coming in and trying a class, you won’t regret it!

Love to be able to go to a gym that does it all. I always feel motivated, cared for, safe, and energized when with this team, every staff member is beyond amazing, the classes keep me interested and sweating, the gym is spotless and smells fresh, I never feel crammed or overstuffed into a class. This place is the real deal if I could give it 10 stars i would. I have attended many gyms but this one is the only one that lives up to my high standards hitting all the different styles of workouts I like to do while also making you feel like family in a clean upscale environment. Everyone that experiences this place seems to get the same feeling and I am thrilled to be apart of a gym that makes me feel excited and motivated to work out and never down on myself. Truly one of the best things I have ever done for my body and my mind.

E-Motion studio truly has something for everyone, no matter you fitness style or ability. The wide variety of classes both in types of workouts and time of day. What really makes E-Motion special are the people! Macy & Troy and the whole E-Motion team have really built something incredibly special. It is the most genuine, welcoming, and encouraging studio I have ever practiced with. I am so glad I found E-Motion.

5 stars hands down. I am so beyond grateful my friend introduced me to EMOTION. I am new to the Wilmington area and I work from home, so there’s not many places I’m able to go to get out and socialize. I have been working out at home but felt like I plateaued and wasn’t pushing myself. EMOTION has been the greatest thing not only to get me out of the house and into a routine, but the classes have improved my life both physically and mentally. The team is amazingggg and even remember you by name, which makes you really feel like part of the community — especially when something like this could be so intimidating to try on your own. It’s such a special place!!! If you haven’t checked it out yet, what are you waiting for!

E•motion studio is a described perfectly by its name - the expression of emotion through motion! Every class I've participated in has been amazing leaving me refreshed, open, and with a smile even if it was challenging. The infrared heating systems are a great bonus. I love walking into the studio knowing I'll be received with a happy hello at the check in, and thanked for taking a class when I leave. Workshops are offered at least once a month giving the opportunity to learn new things or get involved in the community. A great place to meet new people with a shared sense of health, wellness, and joy!

I’ve done it all!!! From HIIT work outs to personal trainers to yoga to cross fit and let me telllll youuu!
Emotion is IT. I had never done pilates before and I legit made my self pay to sign up for a month so I would actually go. And it’s one of the best investments I’ve made for myself. Mentally and physically. The owners Macy and Troy are top tier trainers and are GENUINE they truly care about giving you the best experience you can have and are so incredibly kind.
They make you feel apart of the family the second you walk in! I’m obsessed with HOTFITT FLOW which is a class they created. Basically it is a HITT work out with pilates elements.Truly if you’re reading this dont waste your time checking out other places, from pilates to strength training they’ve got it!11/10 recommend.

E Motion studio is the best yoga studio I have ever been to! All of the yoga instructors are at the top of their game. The sense of community is untouchable. Upon walking into the studio, you are addressed by name and welcomed with warm smiles! Throughout the practice you are encouraged personally by being called out by name with “great job” or “excellent form”! This is one of the only studios I have been to that makes you feel at home whether you are a beginner, advanced, or returning from a hiatus. The classes offered accommodate all levels by providing many pose options throughout! You must come, you’ll be hooked!!
