⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The staff at Durbrow are absolutely amazing! The workouts are always challenging and keep me motivated to push myself every time. Durbrow has quickly become one of my favorite spots to go to — not just for the workouts, but for the people. Everyone in the class supports and encourages one another, creating an incredible sense of community. I always leave feeling stronger, happier, and inspired. Highly recommend!

DPT is the best gym I’ve joined in over 20 years of working out. The coaches are not only knowledgeable, but genuinely supportive and kind. I’ve gotten stronger every time I walk through the door. More than that, this is the first gym where I’ve truly felt a sense of community. People show up and want to get to know you, cheer you on, and make your life better inside and outside the gym.

I joined DPT because I wanted to start strength training with heavier weights and I knew after my first class that I had found the right gym for me. All of the coaches are knowledgeable, encouraging and able to provide modifications when needed. The gym has a supportive feel to it that makes me want to attend classes, even at the end of a long day. I’m so glad I found DPT!

Show up and get a great workout in under an hour. Love that I don’t have to decide on what to work on or how. Best part is never having to wait for equipment to free up.Trainers are great and always provide alternative options. Group class setting is encouraging and motivates me to work harder.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that DPT has been a life changing place for me. I have experimented with a *lot* of gyms and workouts in my life and had very mixed experiences. I was looking for a place that was accepting of all bodies, that was supportive (not toxic), and that gave me the space to meet my body wherever it happened to be each day and season of my life. It also had to be fun so I’d want to keep coming back.

DPT is that place and more. It’s welcoming and wonderful. It’s filled with all kinds of people and bodies and everyone is doing what works for them in the most encouraging and kind way. The coaches are wonderful. The classes got my through my pregnancy and I felt stronger than I’ve ever been in my life.

Roll out of bed, show up, and let the coaches tell you what to do. You’ll work hard, you’ll sweat, and you’ll want to keep coming back for more.

I spent many years sporadically doing workouts from home because I was intimidated of the gym but I started feeling unmotivated and wanted more support. DPT was the best resolution. This is the most welcoming gym, Callie and the coaches meet you at your level ready to help you grow and improve at the rate that works for you, your body, and your goals. The community represents people at all phases of fitness and cheer you on. I’m so happy to have found it and hope to be a member for many years.

I’ve been coming to DPT for almost 3 years now and I absolutely love it! I’m in the best shape of my life and finally feel strong, healthy, and positive about my body.

The workouts are never boring and I’m always able to challenge myself. The trainers are so helpful and everyone is very nice. This all makes it so easy to go to the gym. I very much look forward to coming, even after a long day at work or at 8am on a Saturday.

I have only positive things to say and highly recommend trying DPT out!

DPT is the highlight of my week! After years of feeling disconnected from my body due to a shoulder injury and lots of PT, I was hesitant to return to any kind of structured workout. But finding DPT changed everything. The support and care from the trainers — and the thoughtful structure of the classes — have been essential to my healing and growth. I haven’t felt this in touch with my body, or found this much joy in movement, in a very long time.

This place has been more than just a gym to me. It’s genuinely helped me reconnect with myself and has had a profound impact on my mental health. I truly don’t think I could have made this journey without DPT. Thank you!

DPT in East Somerville is the best! The instructors are kind, funny, helpful, and encouraging. It’s all support and no judgment. They’ll work around any injuries and no matter what kind of shape you’re in you’ll get a great workout. Classes are fun and the workouts are changed up constantly, so you won’t get bored. I’ve been going for two years and I couldn’t be happier.

It’s been quite some time, since I’ve been thinking of trying out this gym. In the past, I would go to the traditional gyms, where I was doing my own workouts, and never connected with anyone.
Now at DPT, this changed completely. I was pleasantly surprised to see the dynamics of the place. Starting with the coaches, who miraculously know everyone’s name; the sessions are inclusive, sometimes interactive with the group and everyone is very friendly. There are people of all ages, all fitness levels, and you can follow the exercises at your own pace. No worries about not knowing what to do at first, because you can see others doing the same thing, plus, of course, the coaches are always there for any questions, advice, correcting your form. Once the class starts, you don’t even realize how fast it goes by and your body will tell you how well you did the next day - I’m always discovering muscles that I didn’t know existed!
I highly recommend trying out this gym, you’ll love it!

The community is super welcoming, with both members and trainers creating a friendly and supportive environment. The classes are not only fun but also challenging, keeping you motivated to push your limits.

They have a great variety of equipment, including barbells, kettlebells, TRX, battle ropes, sleds, the SkiErg, and more—there's something for everyone. This variety keeps workouts fresh and engaging, and the equipment is always well-maintained.

The coaches are knowledgeable and approachable, always open to discussing your fitness and nutritional goals. Overall, I highly recommend joining this gym.

As a firefighter I believe functional fitness is critical. DPT is set up with a customized rig, battle ropes, sleds, and an array of equipment.

I joined DPT a few months ago and have been really enjoying my experience. The trainers are great and knowledgeable. I was nervous jumping in because I hadn't exercised in 2 years but they explain everything really well and you work at your own level with the weights you're comfortable with for strength training. They encourage you to continue to build on weights but I've never felt pressure outside of my comfort zone.

I also just think the community and other clients are great. Everyone was incredibly friendly when I joined as a new client, introducing themselves and encouraging me.

I was also worried I might have trouble getting into the classes I wanted because they keep the groups relatively small (<20) but I've been able to get into the classes I want 90% of the time.

Overall, a great experience and I would recommend.

I have gone to this gym for 2.5 years and let me say, it is the only place that I have been able to consistently work out for a period longer than 3 months. It's like a family here. The trainers are incredibly knowledgeable and care about not only your fitness and dietary journeys, but you as a person. Oh, and it's a heckin' good workout too! With Covid there are online classes and in person classes (that I feel safe doing outside), and they have been open with communication and safety. It may seem expensive, but for the returns and consistency you get, it's worth every single penny. If you are on the fence, just trust me and come here. Complete beginners to fitness forward, they have something for everyone here.

DPT absolutely changed my life. After a decade of trying every diet and workout plan on the market, I hit a dead end. DPT helped me reset, and for the first time in my life I was able to meet my fitness goals. Beyond amazing, full body workouts, these people truly care about your well being inside and out. I not only added 9 pounds of muscle in 90 days, I learned how to deal with my stress and how to eat a nutritious balanced diet focused on macro nutrients. Coming to Durbrow isn't just about getting a 30 minute workout in, it's about working with trainers who want to get to know you and who are willing to go the extra mile to help you change your life. In addition, you get to make friends with an amazing community of people who support you every step of the way. Sign up today! It's worth every penny.
