Iβve been a member for 13 years! My favorite part about this all womenβs gym is coming to the body pump class 2x week, enjoying their dry sauna and getting teas in their nutrition club after a good workout!

I have had a membership at Genesis, Planet Fitness, Crunch & BB is my Favorite by Far. Whether youβre a beginner or a fanatic, 19 or 99, you can come as you are and there is Truly No Judgement. Cardio & weight rooms are great, Iβve never had to wait for a machine. What I enjoy most is the variety of classes they offer. If you want to feel Empowered and Safe there is Body Combat - need a little Stress Relief there is Body Balance (yoga) - their Boxing class is Great for Anger Management & Zumba is So Much Fun you forget your working out!!

This place is more than a gym. Itβs my safe place. A place where women can come to workout without feeling judged. Everyone is on their own fitness journey but cheering each other on along the way. Women of all shapes, sizes, ages, and backgrounds. It is just a beautiful family and community. I wonβt go anywhere else!

Body Boutique has been a lifesaver for me since the start of COVID and working from home. It is a safe and supportive environment with women of all ages and fitness levels. It is a great place to get out of your comfort zone and try something new- there are many live and virtual classes to choose from. Since joining Iβve tried boxing, cycling, and made weightlifting a habit. Iβm no longer scared of the squat rack and barbell exercises! I highly recommend giving BB a try.

Great club for women of all ages and fitness levels featuring a variety of well instructed classes (including Les Mills and Zumba), a spacious, uncrowded facility including weights, a cycling studio, hot tub and sauna), and welcoming atmosphere. Locally owned for more than 30 years. Highly recommended!

Body Boutique is my home away from home. I feel comfortable and welcome each time I walk in. Iβve been a member since around 2016 when we moved to Lawrence. My favorite classes are Pump, Combat, Tone, and RPM. The instructors give options based on your needs and never point you out individually. Iβm more motivated by in-person classes but thereβs virtual options as well. (Iβm just so bad at understanding the Australian accent in the videos.) Iβve been doing personal training for over two years in the large weight room with Shannon W. and Iβd definitely recommend trying it. Although there may be a few cosmetic fixes needed, this is one of my favorite places in Lawrence and Iβm so happy to be a part of it.

Body Boutique has been an important part of my life for the past ten years. When I started experiencing some back aches and loss of bone mass in my 50βs, I knew that I had to be more proactive with strengthening and stretching. I tried all of the classes, but have found Bodypump and Body Balance / yoga to be especially valuable additions to my weekly activities. All of the fitness instructors at Body Boutique are professional and excellent! As a βmatureβ woman, I feel completely comfortable taking classes alongside younger women with even more ambitious fitness goals because there are so many options presented during the class instruction. I feel stronger and better than ever these days. I highly recommend Body Boutique to women of all ages.

Iβve been coming to Body Boutique since my daughter was a freshman in high school, about 20 years. I love the atmosphere and the people who come and participate. I have found the value found at the gym of being healthy and not focusing on looks has been the biggest motivator for me over the years! The Total Body Nutrition cafe has been a fantastic addition to the gym. One-stop shop for my health needs.

My husband and friends encouraged me to attend the 6 week fitness challenge for early 2024. This is the first gym I've attended as an adult. I never felt the need to attend a gym for a good workout before. This was a fun experience and I learned that going to a gym helps keep me motivated. I really enjoyed how engaging and encouraging everyone is here! I mostly went for the Zumba classes, but decided to do Sh'Bam, Body Balance, and Body Pump. I loved it! I was very impressed with the Body Pump class! My muscles have tone to them again and I've lost some extra weight from having my youngest child. It was awesome to be encouraged to get out of my comfort zone! I'm glad I did it! π
I appreciate that Body Boutique is an all women's gym. The facilities are well kept and clean. The daycare room is huge with lots of toys and the caretakers are always so good with the kids. My daughters looked forward to being there! I wished I could continue with the membership. The 35 minute drive is just a bit too long for me to keep up with it for how often I would prefer to attend. I'm going to miss this gym and everyone! Now I see the importance of attending a good gym. Thank you to everyone at Body Boutique for the wonderful experience! π

Body Boutique is my happy place. There is no other gym like it. From group fitness classes, personal and small group training, indoor cycling, machines and weights and equipment, a mindfulness studio equipped with in-person and virtual class options, to a jacuzzi and dry sauna, full-service beauty salon and nutrition club, a woman is able to care for her entire mind, body and spirit in a positive, supportive environment, all under one roof. Body Boutique is the place to be!

Iβm shocked this gym has positive reviews. Clearly none of you have tried to end your service there. Having to sign up for a MLM to join the gym should have been a red flag, but I liked the idea of womenβs only so I join anyways. I signed up for private one on one sessions. 2 of the girls quit during the 3 months (not surprisingly based on other reviews about people not being paid). never once did the gym ask me if I wanted a refund or if I had a preference on who I worked with. At the price I paid for sessions any communication would have been nice. When I moved out of state I ended my contract, but they didnβt respond to the email for two weeks conveniently after the next billing cycle. Trying to squeeze another $70 out however they can. The owner and this place is nothing but a scam. Women BEWARE.

Hours open are very limited:
This gym deserves 5/5 stars, however, the times they are open is VERY limiting.
That is literally the ONLY downfall. Otherwise, itβs the perfect gym! π
Mon-Friday (5AM - 7:30 PM)
Saturday (8AM - 1PM)
Sunday (9AM - 11AM)
If the gym was open a little later on the weekends, like 2PM or 3PM, and open for an extra hour on weekdays, like 8:30 PM or even 9PM, more people would join! I have friends and my sister who all said they would join if they were open a little later.
Other than the hours, it's an amazing gym!
Being female only, I get amazing workouts in, stretching, take yoga, and find myself there for 2-3 hours when I have the time! I could hangout here forever. But due to the lack of hours open, I have a hard time getting there.

I LOVE Body Boutique/Free State Ride! I have tried all of the gyms in Lawrence and never truly felt like I found my place. As a college student, the location is so ideal right next to campus. My favorite aspect of the gym is that it is all womenβI struggled with severe βgym-timidationβ and the women here couldnβt be more welcoming and non-judgmental. The classes have become my routine every week and I am obsessed! I used to be a cyclist at other commercial cycle studios, but the hefty price tag was not worth it. Here at BodyBoutique, Free State Ride Cycling is included in the price which is a huge draw for me! I leave feeling empowered, strong, and healthy. It is easy to commit to fitness when you love the environment youβre in. I definitely see results and have gained so much muscle/lost so much body fat %, and feel AWESOME! If I could give this gym 1 million stars I would because there is absolutely nothing I would change!

I have been a part of the Body Boutique community for the better part of a decade. I don't think you can find another gym in our area that offers more for women. The group fitness classes are awesome and so are their instructors (I may be biased but it's true). You can participate in person for a class or stream it online from home. There are also virtual classes at the gym so you always have options for classes no matter what time you are there. There's just so much variety including cycling, TRX, and all of the Les Mills programs. I use the weights floor often and love that I never have to fight for space. Like I said, where else can you go that offers so much? Lastly, I use the word community, because there truly is one at Body Boutique. The women there become your fit fam. We support one another and are always on the same team. It's a very special place.

They use Shady business practices to make cancellation as difficult as possible. There's a nearly completely non-functional internet portal yet you cannot use any of it to cancel your account, even in the middle of the pandemic they require that you come in during business hours and cancel which is restrictive against people who have irregular work schedules and difficulties socializing. Coupled with the 60-day cancellation notice like it's an apartment complex, it's clear the business strategy is to make it as difficult as possible to cancel your membership. Stay away

The instructors are nice and thereβs a wide variety of classes. However, I never dreamt that canceling a membership would be so difficult. I signed a one year contract a little over a year ago. Life changes in a year and the gym is no longer in a convenient location for me and I want to cancel my membership. Iβve called three times over the course of a week and a half not wanting to be overly pushy. Two times Iβve left messages which have received no response and the time I did get to speak to a person, a week ago, I was told I would receive confirmation of my cancellation and that I would not have to come in to cancel like usual. I have yet to receive this confirmation. Iβm extremely disappointed and frustrated. If youβre looking at reviews, like I was a year ago, and betting that some of the complaints on here were off-chances it miscommunications, theyβre not. Save yourself the trouble.

Speaking on behave of my wife, the gym is very sub par and diligent. The owner was rude and snobbish and quite money hungry. My wife took the our children to the day care which was very contaminated and unkempt, the workers were very nice however the toys were unhygienic and old. If i could i'd give it a zero. My wife's experience was very distasteful and she is now stuck in a very unhappy contract. BODY BOUTIQUE GET A BETTER OWNER!

Body Boutique is one of my happiest of places. It's a community of women who strive to be better version of themselves, whatever that might be, and support one another along the way. I've made so many meaningful relationships there. I also love love love their group fitness classes. They offer so many different formats, that it really makes working on my fitness accessible and fun. I always think it's more fun to work out with others, especially when you get to do it Les Mills style. The small group classes, Elite 30, provide more attention if needed, and then there's always personal training from the great trainers there. It's definitely worth checking out!!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Body Boutique. I joined only last fall and I was hooked instantly with what they had to offer. This is not your typical βgymβ setting. There is so much more. With the support from their staff I became involved in many things such as Tribe Fit, body pump and RPM. I could not have maintained my fitness like I did through the long winter without BB. I highly recommend this facility to every woman who has the desire to be ALL that you want to be!

The management has poor practices, deprioritizing members who don't participate in programs that are extra on top of your membership. the cancellation policy is unacceptable. The management preaches about how they have to "run a business" and rates should reflect that, but if they spent more time running the business and less time talking about it, people would maybe be happier customers.

Body Boutique isn't just a gym. It's a community of supportive women of all shapes, sizes, ages, and backgrounds. It's a full service fitness facility where you will make friends and get encouragement to make positive healthy changes. Body Boutique offers a large variety of high quality classes that cater to all fitness levels. The personal trainers at Body Boutique will help to perfect exercise techniques that provide maximum impact. It's a large facility with tons of equipment and places to work out on your own. The spa is wonderful, too: sauna, hot tub, steam room, and the most amazing massage therapists! I love Body Boutique!

This is a nice facility and they offer many classes but they seriously lack diversity/inclusivity in staff and in members. I never felt fully comfortable working out here because it felt like members and staff alike did nothing but stare at me for intruding on their white space. I will also add that their cancellation policy is bull. They require you to come in and sign a form and then inform you that you're still required to pay for another 2-3 months of membership before they'll actually cancel your membership. Save your money if you're a POC and find a more inclusive space.

I was a member of this gym for 10+ years. The gym is clean. They have a range of nice programming choices. Instructors are very dedicated and skilled. Management, however, is a different story. I have come to the realization that all that management cares for is profit. They will suck money out of you even after you decide to leave the gym. I was charged four extra months after I announced that I was leaving (due to relocation to a different state). And this problem with repeated unauthorized withdrawals seems to be rather common. Beware before you give your credit card information to this gym.

I had been a member for over 6 years. I liked the gym because I liked the classes, the equipment, and the accessibility, but the billing system is absolutely horrible. They force you to sign up for automatic payments which they don't stop after you quit. I gave my required 60 day notice to cancel my membership and they continued to charge me. Apparently it's a 60 day cancellation notice plus whatever is left in your billing cycle, which they don't tell you, so when I cancelled I still paid another 2 months. Then I was charged an ADDITIONAL month but that was eventually refunded.

It seems to me that as a business owner, Body Boutique might read their numerous poor reviews regarding their financial policy, and realize they need to CHANGE their financial policy because they are making their clients angry. Is 3 extra months of fees or giving someone the runaround so they can't close their membership worth all of these terrible reviews you are getting on Google? These days, consumers read reviews before making decisions. Just a suggestion, change your financial policy and then reply to every single bad review that you have with a note saying that you listened and changed your policy, and apologize for any inconvenience! Your are going to struggle to gain new members with the terrible reviews you have, especially with so many great gyms in Lawrence.

DON'T DO IT! they switch billing providers without telling you. So you get hit with late fees. Then, when you try to cancel, it takes them months to do, all while you are getting charged.
Just generally hard to deal with. Just go to the free gyms (rock chalk park for example) in the area and save yourself the trouble.

I've been going to Body Boutique on and off over the past 10 years and truly love this gym and the community here. I am a mom, and cannot say good enough things about their child care center. We've even used some of the ladies as sitters and it's been great getting to know them! The kidcare space is open, bright and they have so many nice toys for my kid to play with while I get in some me time. It's so nice going to a woman-empowered gym that has a nice variety of classes. They always have challenges and events going on to keep members engaged. The owner has addressed the concerns over cancelling contracts and informed us that everything is now being handled in-house.

HUGE regret to ever give them my business. I sent an email to the third party billing company (that alone is a mess! they switch billing companies without telling you) and forwarded it to the gym. This email gave 90 days notice... plenty I thought! Nope. They did not consider this sufficient notice, and said I had to come in personally to the gym to sign a document. Despite moving out of town, I had to go in person to sign a document, and now I have to pay for 3 more months. Total ripoff. Do NOT sign a contract here!!!

BEWARE ***I've been with this gym for some time now, and have constantly fought with this billing company and their employees over billing issues. When I signed up, the front desk workers were very friendly, and specifically told me I would not have problems freezing or canceling. However, today I tried to cancel my account due to moving in a few short days, and they said I would've had to give them 60 days notice. Therefore, they are wanting me to pay for the next few months as well!! I was never informed of this upon signing up, they stated it would only take one phone call. They act like a friendly, local gym but behind the scenes it is a mess. Staff is clueless on how billing works, therefore you have to go through their third party billing company! Please don't sign up for a membership at this gym, unless you know you will be living close by, forever. Very disappointed, especially if you're a college student.

I love this gym! They offer LesMills among other classes. The instructors are friendly, encouraging, and fun. They do challenges, incentives, and events such as local runs and work out gear swaps. This is your hometown gym- not a big commercial center that will hard-sell you into a 3 year contract and forget your name the next day. The KidsCare available is awesome as well! They actually play with and do crafts and activities with your children. The staff doesn't just sit in a corner and look at their phones. You will see all ages and sizes in a clean friendly environment!

Never join anything for an extended period of time. If you want to go to this gym you have to sign a 1 year contract. You can NOT get out of it even if you wanted to pay a cancelation fee. You get absolutely no notice when your contract will be coming to an end. You have to give a 2 month notice or you will just keep getting billed. The classes were fun until they cancel the ones you can attend because they don't think enough people are coming. I'm sorry but if I'm stuck in a membership I should get to enjoy the classes I joined the gym for in the first place. Front desk isn't friendly....I switched to Planet Fitness where everyone is friendly, you can cancel at any time, it's half the price, and has hydro massage lounges.

This organization did not honor their own 1 year contract and end my membership after 1 year. Instead Body Boutique continued to charge me for membership fees even after I emailed and called to tell them I was not in the state and did not want to renew my membership. Since I was not in the state, I could not deal with this issue in person and they would not work with me. This issue dragged out for an entire year after my 1 year membership was suppose to expire. In the end I had a $150.00 outstanding balance on my account that I was unaware of until I got a call from a collection agency a year later. I signed up for a 12 month membership but was charged for 14 months.

This place is a scam. For a number of reasons.
First, the enrollment is very simple, but if for some reason you want to cancel you have to submit it to an affiliate company who will continue to charge you for 60 DAYS after your notice and you need to provide proof of either move or disability. While in those 60 days, you still continue to be charged even if you are not using any of their services, including childcare. Which is not great at all, in case you give a child a week there and just happen to peek through the glass.
The classes are just ok, nothing to make them out stand from any other gym, there are several other options in the area. In the meantime, they continue to take my money from me (who now live in Texas) for over 4 months. Just be aware.

Very bad and worst experience ever I had, I started with them 2013 and they told me when i want to stop or cancel my membership it's fine.
I called and I came to the gym to cancel my membership and they told me OK, but they still charged me every month, they charged me 5 months till this moment and every time I called them they tell me the same stupid reason, the person who is charge of my cancellation is not here.
I called my lawyer for this reason, the gave me a hard time.. They are big liers
if u want to cancel your membership take a copy of it

I've been going to BodyBo for many years now, so obviously I'm a fan. For those who are looking for a gym, here are the major points I'd highlight:
PROS:
- Equipment. I really appreciate having access to all the same equipment that I got used to having at the KU Rec center. Over the past year or two they keep adding more of the bonus extras (ab core trainer mats, resistance bands, medicine balls, etc.) that make workouts more rewarding.
- Instructors are great. They're well trained, and nearly all of them have wonderful, infectious personalities while teaching. They really help you push yourself.
- Classes. The Les Mills classes are great (especially BodyFlow, my favorite) as are the classes designed by the BodyBo instructors.
- Lady gym. I love having a women-only space to work out.
- Friendly staff. For the most part, the people who work at the gym are great.
CONS:
- The hours. The hours are a huge bummer and major downside to this gym. They close at 8pm Fridays and 6pm on Saturdays and Sundays. Obviously this is not a deal breaker for me, but it is a regular disappointment.
- Space. This should be solved by the upcoming expansion, but right now, during peak times, space is very limited. Trainers often work with clients during peak times and occupy the majority of the free space.

I have been a member of Body Boutique for about 8 years. I originally joined to get into shape after traveling for years (and it taking a toll on my body). I wanted to be an 'anonymous' user - go in, use the treadmill, get home. I gradually worked up enough confidence to start taking classes. I LOVED them. They challenged me, I lost weight, and started gaining more confidence. I then joined a bootcamp group and did 'the challenge.' I was in the best shape of my life and I felt amazing. Well, then a baby happened and it took a while to get back into it. Body Boutique was there for me at every stage that I needed. I took it slowly, got back into shape with my favorite classes...started working out with a trainer again to focus more on specific needs. The thing about BB that I love is that you seem to gradually become part of the BB family. They are there for you when you need them, whatever your needs are. The instructors are amazing and supportive. It's not one of those gyms where the instructors are up on stage to show off. They are real people and help everyone on their different journey of health and fitness. The trainers are the same way, as are the other members. I have met lifelong friends through this gym, and am excited to go there everyday, as well as sad to miss when I am traveling. Body Boutique is fantastic, and I anticipate being a lifelong member.

Body Boutique has made a positive difference in my life. I have been a member for many years, but really "kicked it in" about 5 years ago. The staff helped me to design a plan to get fit and stay healthy. The plan has changed and adapted to my needs as I have become more advanced and confident in my abilities. I am challenged every time I walk in the door, and I live for it. An intrinsic benefit of my membership are the friends I've made along the way. I definitely recommend Body Boutique. If you join and engage, you will be better a person for it.

This place is amazing! For most of my adult life, I have been a member of some type of gym and this is, by far, my favorite experience. The "ladies only" thing gave me pause because I thought it could be filled with competitive women, but that is definitely NOT the case here. The all-female atmosphere is encouraging and inspiring. Yes, the classes can be crowded but with a little forethought, registering online for a spot is easy peasy. I have used this gym my entire pregnancy and as I have gotten larger and larger, the instructors have become more and more accommodating even though I am the only preggers in the class. Finally, the personal trainers are reasonably priced, have flexible schedules, and kick you butt-exactly what I want in a PT! Seriously, this gym is stellar!

I have been going to BB on and off for several years. I've seen great improvement over the years, especially with the classes and instructors, i.e. Erica's Pilates class is the best class at BB. She's very accommodating to the needs of the entire class and always asks if there are any special needs, injuries, etc, as well as ramping it up to get a great workout and makes it really fun! I also love the steam room! Everyone in the gym has always been very friendly to boot!

I would never recommend Body Boutique in Lawrence to any of my closest friends or worst enemies. I will give it one star, because the instructors seem professional and nice. However, 70-80% of the times I go to sign up for a class I get, "the maximum number of web sign ups has been reached...". They over sell memberships knowing that there is not enough space, gym equipment or number of simultaneous classes to keep customers satisfied. Also, when I have gotten in to a class, they are wall to wall packed with no room to move. I am a professional and I understand that any product will have flaws and that they sell contracts by the year, but when a company has no integrity to try to remedy the situation or let someone who feels cheated out of their contract then I have no respect for how they do business. And by the sound of this review, you probably think I was rude on the phone. I wasn't, but they were definitely unapologetic and rude to me. Just thought I would share! Oh and the fact that they will be expanding in the future doesn't excuse anything and I wouldn't recommend letting them tell you otherwise!

This place is a nightmare to cancel with. They hire out a billing company with which they seem to have no communication, right hand doesn't talk to the left hand. I opted to pay my fees in cash which I was told I could do until I started getting invoices from a billing company that were overcharging me, however, this can't be worked out with Body Boutique because they "don't have anything to do with the billing company." Tried to call and cancel my account 45 days in advance, called 4 times to ask if I could come in and pay my due balance in cash or give a credit card and was told no, it had to be paid online. But online automated email said "do not reply to this email"....left not knowing how to solve the problem I called on the 31st of August wanting the end of September to be my last billing (contract says give 30 days notice) and was told that I needed to do that at the end of July... so contract should say "60 day notice."
Regardless, on August 31st the girl on the phone said that I could not come in and pay to close my account that I would have to make an appointment with someone on the 2nd! Of course, this meant that I got charged for another month and she took my money. So why did they tell me that they couldn't do that when I called in all of the previous times that would have saved me from another fee?
Thievery. Never get yourself involved in this mess. If you work out to reduce stress they'll make sure you leave frazzled. Save yourself the headache and go somewhere with accountable accounting.

I have been a member for 6 months now. and i did love it. i agree w every EVERY review listed. the management is terrible, rude, careless, and mostly clueless. i think there might have 4 actuall times i got to finish my whole one hour group workout w out them coming and having me stop to do something that could of waited till i was done. They also have questioned my kids about personal information, w out my permission and knowlege and presences. i dont trust the daycare. i dont trust the managment. the trainers really care. they are awesome and is what keeps that place in business. they motivate everyone to come back, and i look forward to going back tomorrow. now if the rest of the business could well act like a business, there would be alot more happy women!

Hours are horrible for working professionals and contract is deceitfully hard to get out of. I first joined because I was going to yoga classes with friends on weekends. Now they're down to 2 yoga classes a week, and like all of their classes, they are offered too early in the evening for me to be able to get to. It's a let down that this is a women only place because it's definitely not a working women place. I feel sort of vindicated that there are so many reviews regarding the horrible contract. In my line of work this type of thing is called a "dark pattern." How convenient it seems to sign up for auto billing...until you try to get out of it and you missed the 3 month in advance mail in request for cancellation by one day. (BTW I called ABC financial later than the May 5 review below and I was told 3 months. Maybe your set income would continue to come in if it weren't for snatch and grab policies.) The facilities are well kept and the staff is friendly so I have no problems there. I even enjoy that it's women only. I just cannot justify flying out the door at work to get to a 5:30 class.
