**EDIT** After reading the comment from Velo about what the intention is for the class, and re-reading the class description for the Sunday "Slow Flow" I realize that it never says it's a "yoga" class. That is 100% my fault that I seen "Slow Flow" and assumed it was a slow, yoga class. I do apologize. But I stand by what I said about the floors. If the floors were "cleaned that morning" then maybe have someone else do them before people with bare feet will be walking around. But again, I may be biased as yes, my background is in Yoga and shoes in the same area that we practice is a big NO just to honor Saucha. I may come back to take the Tuesday "Velo YOGA" class as it's wonderful to take someone else's class for once.

Full disclaimer, this is NOT a Yoga studio. This is a Pilates/Spin studio that incorporates yoga into their schedule but even the yoga isn't "yoga". I was looking for a slow flow before I had to be at another obligation at 9am around the corner. The space was LOUD when I entered. It's clearly a class to gather with the community. And that definitely is needed! But maybe not before a "slow flow" class. Yoga isn't a fitness class. This class wasn't to open the body or connect the body with the breath. This was a class to do some pulses, crunches, and keep up with class. It was more like yogalates or a yoga sculpt class. No meditation. No body to breath connection. There were people who looked lost in the class because their body didn't do what the instructor was saying but no modifications were given other than for side crow. Also, the floors were disgusting. Making sure they are cleaned before class would be nice because the last thing I want is to feel all the crap on the floors with bare feet. At the end of the day, is this a fitness studio who is targeting a specific demographic? Yes! And they are nailing it. But for everyone else who wants a spiritual yogic practice, this isn't the place.

Visited this studio for a group work out with my girlfriends. The instructor, Stacey, was very helpful. She adjusted the bikes for us and did a walk through of the resistance settings. Arrive 10 mins early if it’s your first time.

I’m 20 classes in and it’s been a warm and enjoyable experience. As a man, I understand the stigma that could be associated with attending a predominantly female fitness studio but I have always felt welcomed by staff and attendees. I started coming for an alternative to physical therapy, being able to stretch and go through the moments. Now I continue as it’s a great balance to strength and flexibility. Every instructor works the room and makes it a great place to learn and grow!

10/10 I am in LOVE with the new infrared studio you’ve added! I truly didn’t think I could love VELO any more with all of the amazing coaches, wide variety in classes and class schedule options.. now THE HOT STUDIO takes it to a whole new level! Beautiful & spacious, not to mention how incredible the community is!! A MUST TRY for all fitness levels!

After years of powerlifting and getting burnt out from the gym, I wanted to try something different to stay active so I found Velo/Vivre and started signing up for a few classes individually to see if I would enjoy the workouts before committing to a membership. I instantly fell in love with the all of the different classes and instructors and am now almost 50 classes in and so happy I started! Every instructor is so knowledgable, kind, and motivating and the community here is such a good vibe overall. I can’t recommend this place enough. I even started to bring my husband to a few classes and he loved it so much that he got his own membership and comes with me a few days a week. There are so many classes to choose from so you can always mixup your workouts and try different things. You won’t regret trying out Pilates for the first time here, or trying out this studio in general!! Shelby, Elissa, and Megan are my favs! ❤️

I’m not usually a yoga person, but Megan might be changing that! Her hot flow class is the perfect mix of movement and mindfulness, and her energy keep it fun and engaging. I never find myself watching the clock or feeling bored. If you’ve been hesitant to try yoga, this is the class to start with. Megan brings the vibes, the sweat, and the good energy every time!

Paige’s spin class is exactly what you need to kickstart your day, especially at 5:30 AM! Her energy is contagious, the music is fire, and she’s truly a fresh breath of air. If you’ve been needing a sign to get back on the bike—this is it.

I attended my first class here and the instructor, environment, and overall vibe were wonderful. Unfortunately, my experience with the membership process was disappointing enough that I decided not to continue.

A membership option listed on their website was removed shortly after I inquired about it, and I was instead offered a different plan with a “waived” sign-up fee that wasn’t even part of the original offer. This felt misleading and raised concerns about transparency and business practices. It’s unfortunate, because I was genuinely excited to become a member, but the way this situation was handled caused me to lose trust.

*Screenshots attached for transparency, they show the membership listed on the website (time screenshot was taken highlighted) and the studio’s response after I asked about it.

I can't say enough good things about Velo. The instructors are friendly and helpful. I have injury limitations and they do a great job helping me modify the workouts. I look forward to classes and the progress I feel every week.

Velo is accessible, encouraging, and challenging all at the same time. They offer a variety of classes at all times of day. There is something for everyone.

Do noy Buy a gift card from here. I was given a gift card to use it for some classes. I called the studio before booking. One of the staff members (Elise) answered the phone the first time. The 2nd or 3rd did not answer. She was supposed to called me back and never did. I booked a class online and apparently they have a wait list and was not able to go due to them having a list. It's only been 4 months and I just received a message that the classes were about to expire. So basically do no buy gift cards from here. I don't even know what is the point of having them unless it is used to pay your your "Tuition". If you are unable to answer the phone. Please have clear communication on your website. It is poorly developed.

2 years at this studio and I can’t recommend it enough! They have the most welcoming team, so many class styles, and almost every time of day available! I mostly attended Shelby and Paige’s classes and they changed the way I viewed fitness—a discipline that can be packed with great music and immaculate vibes. Thank you Velo for being my home away from home! I will always hear “Up 234, Hover 234, Sit 234” in my sleep. 💛

The best fitness studio ever. The studio offers spin classes which is the best cardio workout with wonderful instructors offering a fun judgment free class, fun playlists and themed rides!

I’ve been coming here for over a year now and i absolutely love it here. They have so many options for classes, but what really makes a studio is the instructors. There isn’t one instructor that has made me feel like I wasn’t doing a good job. I’m beyond blessed to find this community.

Velo is awesome! The community is great (mostly military spouses) and instructors are so friendly and make a great effort to get to know those who take classes. I go to a lot of the full-body strength classes and those are tough but a great workout. Also barre is AMAZING. I'm also pregnant and the instructors know and offer accommodations. The membership prices are super reasonable too!

I love Velo, the classes offered are great there’s a mixture of little bit of everything, but the Cycling classes are my favorite, I go at 530am and it’s such awesome way to start your day the workout is so fun and all the instructors are top notch. They are understanding, fun, and so inspiring. I love all of trainers but my Favorite is Paige when it comes to Cycling she guides you, she encourages you to push your limits so you get the most out of your workout. More importantly she is the sweetest, and so fun to be around. You can come to class half a sleep at 530am and she will wake you up and get you inspired and you will feel so happy that you came out to do cycling before you start your day.❤️
Another great class is strength training with Elissa Faith she is an amazing trainer!! She will help you, and encourage you, she is so incredibly talented and inspiring she teaches you that your goals are not dreams that with hard work and commitment you Can reach your goals. Elissa Faith is the sweetest person, she is so driven it’s contagious. The trainers all show so much expertise and knowledge. The way they help each client is so invaluable in helping them understand and apply what they learned in each class. Their enthusiasm and positive attitude has also made the experience enjoyable and engaging, not many people look forward to working out but the community created here makes you want to attend classes , because of the trainers and the people you get to meet and build friendships with as you work at your goals.

I’ve enjoyed both a yoga & Pilates class here, I was invited along w/ my wife to give this class a shot! Let me tell you, it was challenging for me but not too much to push away a beginner, these classes are meant to push you & I definitely got that from this, I am really looking forward to trying a spin class soon. Cannot say enough about how wonderful the instructors & other members are, if you’re looking for a change this is the place to get started!

When you’re looking for passionate instructors, who truly care about their clients progress, success, form, and safety VELO is the place to be. I’ve been working out consistently for 12 years and truly believe the most important thing in any fitness regimen is consistency and accountability, these coaches want to see you THRIVE and that makes all the difference, whether you’re on day one or day 1,001 of your gym journey.

I LOVE Velo! I love being somewhere that has multiple group class styles. In other cities it’s always an expensive monthly fee for one type of group workout, whether it be a spin studio, barre, yoga etc. But here it’s all in one place and it’s perfect and so so convenient. The look and feel of Velo is also amazing. When you walk in, you immediately feel embraced by the Velo community, and everything is always beautiful. I never liked to go to a regular gym because I didn’t know what to work on or would get nervous with all the equipment, but none of those nerves exist at velo. All the instructors explain exactly what we are supposed to be doing in an easy to understand manner and are supportive throughout everything. It has allowed me to truly embrace my fitness journey and create a set schedule with good habits in ways I couldn’t before.

I live in CA but am spending a month in NC due to a death in the family. Back home, I do Lagree Pilates 4+ times a week and am missing it hard but can’t really motivate myself to workout solo here. Luckily, I found Velo Fitness. Even though it’s been over 15 years since I’ve done a spinning class (and 3 weeks since I worked out at all), it was a delight. Brittany was kind enough to show me how to use the machine (if you’re new, just let your teacher know!), and the class itself was well-paced and really fun (also ok for all levels - when I couldn’t keep up, I just stayed in my seat and pedaled). If you’re looking for a clean, safe space to spin with good equipment and a welcoming atmosphere, this place is it! Highly recommend and look forward to making this my go-to spot when I’m here.

Health and fitness have been big to me for years now. I have found that many places do not challenge me or the coaches will not encourage/push me. Velo is by far different from all the rest. Barre and HIIT are definitely my favorites. The coaches adjust my workouts by giving me heavier weights or positions that challenge me. I always feel encouraged and pushed to go to the best of my abilities. I feel like I’m walking in to a group of friends everytime I do a class. If you’re looking for a challenge and a fun atmosphere and encouraging coaches, I would go to Velo.
