THIS is the place. Yes, the classes are high energy and so much fun, but what really stands out to me is that GROUNDWRK is truly an inclusive space. You feel it right away, and that's rare in the fitness community. I find it inspiring to be in a space where people of all ages and backgrounds show up for movement together and there aren't any competitive vibes or showing off-it's really refreshing. I also appreciate how every instructor brings their own unique presence and music to their classes-every class feels fresh and challenging. As someone who hates lifting heavier weights but know she needs to, the Lift classes are super motivating, and the Ride classes are always a vibe. Music-amazing, people-so friendly, vibes-incredible.

5 Stars: The Energy That Fills Your Soul!
​Christian is absolutely incredible! He brings such amazing, contagious energy to every class that the entire room feels electric. His workouts are always fire—intense, effective, and guaranteed to push you to your best. If you need a dose of motivation that truly fills your soul, book a class with Christian ASAP! He makes working out the best part of the day.

This is a nice little studio tucked away in an unassuming complex in Phoenix. I bought the week of unlimited classes and ended up taking 4 spin classes. I was pleased with my experience. The classes were full, the music selections were exciting, the energy in the room was palpable, and the instructors did a really great job. The attendees of the classes were so friendly, and there was a healthy variety of beginners and strong riders, which I think creates a very welcoming environment. 5 stars for the classes. Things that could use improvement: the classes did not start on time, I tried planning my workday around morning spin classes but they started late and got out late, and as a result, I was late to work. I wish there were more 6am spin classes so I didn’t have to choose a class that was close to my work start time. The bikes could also use some tuneups and a good cleaning. The washcloths were woefully small for wiping sweat off, and one morning, my towel smelled sour. Nothing was a big deal; just a couple of minor dings on an otherwise very fun week of spinning! Thank you Groundwrk!!

This studio did not disappoint. The community, the energy, the space to simply let go of the weight of the world and let sweat, breath and movement take over for a while. The world needs more Groundwrk, and if you’re reading this, book that class because you need to check this studio out ♥️♥️

Groundwrk is a community, full of people that empower each other to not only feel good about themselves, but to help others feel good too.

In the past few years, going to nearly 100 classes of Spin and Lift, I always leave feeling better than when I walked in. The owners, coaches and staff make everyone feel comfortable and welcome at all levels. The best part is everyone there gives you the encouragement to push yourself to get stronger and more confident not just in the fitness realm, but to go out into the world with the confidence to handle the game of life, and feel good while doing it.

Groundwrk is A+++++++++++

Never been a fan of Soulcycle or any of the other cult-like Spin classes--luckily Groundwork is nothing like those.

Ultra-inclusive, no D-bags, and both beginners (like myself) snd advanced riders are welcome. I started with one class a week and and am now up to 3.

They also have Lift classes and a sound healing class which are equally awesome.

If you’re looking for heart and soul, you will find both (& so much more) right here. I don’t think a heartless hand has touched this building, from the second I walked in—I wanted to know every smiling face PULLING me in!! With Lift & Spin, you hit two birds with one stone under one roof which is convenient, but you also never have to worry about which instructor to take because they are ALL out of this world. RUN DO NOT WALK TO GROUNDWORK, you can thank me in class.

I've cycled before but going to GROUNDWRK has made it stick. My Friday classes with Ryan get my hyped for the weekend and he brings so much energy and VIBES to class. Saturdays with Lauren are where I go to get my major sweat on, she has a great way of motivating you to keep turning up that resistance and by the end I swear there's a pool of sweat around me and I immediately need to get those recovery electrolytes in.

Cant thank Mariah enough she's the only reason I was able to find spin shoes that fit and she's always super happy, engaging, and helpful. Luke is a mainstay too, checking me in, handing me tools to tighten my cleats or putting up with me shotgunning NOCCO's in the parking lot before class.

Do yourself a favor and come get your WRK on

I’ve been riding here for about nine months and now take both Lift and Cycling classes weekly. A few things that truly stand out:

- All skill levels are welcomed—whether you're brand new or a seasoned athlete. As you grow, you'll naturally discover which classes and instructors challenge and support you best.

- Both formats weave in mindfulness and meditation, either at the beginning or end. It’s not just about movement—it’s preparing you to show up at your highest level outside the studio too.

- The space is warm and both physically and emotionally inviting. I often leave class with a new idea, a burst of inspiration, a sense of accomplishment, a new friend—or all of the above.

But what really sets Groundwrk apart are the people. From the front desk to the coaches to the members in the room, there’s a high level of authenticity, warmth, and connection. No big egos. No cliques. Just kind, grounded people rooting for each other.

If you’re looking for a place to feel mentally and physically stronger, more connected, and genuinely inspired - you found it here!

The room's lighting and music was perfect for the workout! It smelled clean and I saw students wipe down all materials diligently. Some students wore socks while others wore shoes. I felt very comfortable in this space as a queer person! I have not worked out in a long time, but Ryan had a motivating, upbeat, skipping-around-the-room energy that made me want to try my hardest! The mindfulness and positive talk at the end of class was sweet. Every muscle in my legs was thoroughly sore the next day, which is a sign of a good/thorough workout. I will definitely be back. Thank you Ryan!

Working with Groundwrk has been nothing short of extraordinary. From day one, they embraced our vision, challenges, and unconventional business model with open minds and innovative solutions. Unlike any standard eCommerce project, our website required a never-before-seen checkout system that seamlessly tied product sales to educational downloads via our Masterclass—a concept that had never been executed in our industry before.

Despite the complexity, Groundwrk delivered beyond expectations. Not only is our website visually stunning and incredibly user-friendly, but thanks to their expertise, creativity, and technical brilliance, we now have the most advanced website in our industry. The feedback from both customers and industry peers has been overwhelmingly positive, reinforcing just how groundbreaking this project has been.

What truly sets Groundwrk apart is not just their technical skill but their genuine dedication. They didn’t just feel like a vendor—they felt like internal team members who cared about our mission, vision, and long-term success. Communication was flawless, everything was personalized, and they treated our project with the same passion and commitment as we did.

The result? A $50K investment that was worth every single dollar. We are not only proud of our new website but proud to have worked with a team as exceptional as Groundwrk.

If you are looking for a web development team that will push boundaries, execute at the highest level, and truly care about your success, look no further. Groundwrk is the gold standard.

Haj Botanics proudly gives them 10/10. 🚀

I first attended a LIFT class at Groundwrk shortly after they opened in 2023. Since then, they have grown immensely and that popularity is well deserved because their workouts are AWESOME! The lift classes sprinkled with HIIT will push you past what you thought was possible. Every dollar spent on classes here is an investment in your emotional and physical wellbeing. The instructors here are all amazing but Ryan's energy is unmatched. He literally lights up any room he is in! This is, hands down, the best workout in Phoenix.

Absolutely killer team of instructors and an uplifting community. I promise you will leave feeling better than you arrived.

I had the pleasure of attending Kait's sound healing class, and I must say it was a truly transformative experience.

Now let me preface this by saying that I’m not someone that usually seeks a class like this, and to be frank, I went into the class with a rather closed mind thinking to myself, “how can some windchimes and bowls really help me internally?”

BUT BOY WAS I PLEASANTLY SURPRISED. And I can’t emphasize this enough, I’m not one that likes to admit when they’re wrong but I’ll happily take the L on this one.

From the moment I walked into the space, I could feel the positive and calming energy that Kait radiates. Put simply, Kait knew her stuff and it was very evident. Her passion was infectious and made everyone in the class more excited to learn and explore.

Now to the good part. The sound healing session itself was nothing short of amazing. I can’t put into words the effect the skillfully crafted symphony of sounds had on the room.

To give an analogy, it felt like a gentle breeze on a warm summer day. The sounds soothing qualities caress your skin and create a sense of calm, while also gently permeating deep into your core. I know this may sound dramatic and cliche, but I implore you to find out for yourself and check back in with me.

TLDR: major skeptic left Kait's sound healing class feeling rejuvenated, balanced, and with a renewed sense of well-being. I highly recommend Kait to anyone looking to explore the transformative power of sound healing. Thank you, Kait, for a truly incredible experience.

GROUNDWRK is a high energy workout with great music and fun coaches using dumbbells, benches, and bands. It's a great strength workout with a moderate cardio burn which is perfect!
