Is there a button for more than 5 stars!? Hive has been an incredible 3 year experience for me. They offer something for everyone and have extremely personable staff and friendly trainers.
Their sauna and Ignite+ group classes were a staple of my weekly routines. I only wish they had other locations closer to where I moved to. I can not recommend this gym enough!

I went to Hive for almost 2 years and my experience was great. The staff I interacted with were always friendly and helpful when I had questions. Plenty of equipment. Environment was always friendly and comfortable. Only reason I'm no longer going to Hive is because I moved, otherwise I would've stayed as long as I was in the area.

Best Gym in Charlotte.

I have attended some of the top rated fitness centers in Charlotte, and Hive is by far my favorite. Hive has a variety of fitness equipment to suit whatever workout methodologies you enjoy. Along with sauna, cold plunge, and stretch equipment to fast track your recovery. What separates Hive from its competitors is the people. From staff, to fellow gym members, the community Hive has built is far beyond anything I have experienced before.

At Hive, achieving your fitness goals is easier than ever. Leaving only one question on your mind - 'Where can I park'?

I’ve been to Hive twice with ClassPass - once for an Ignite (strength) class and once for a barre class. Both were amazing - Sara was the teacher for ignite and as someone who is new to strength training, she was extremely helpful with correcting form and offering adjustments if something was too hard/too heavy for me. The Barre class I could not get into on ClassPass due to a technical error, when I reached out they took care of me and offered a complimentary class due to the issue. I ended up being the only person in the class with Emily - she was amazing, such a good workout/burn & so grateful she still taught the class even with it only being me who signed up. Highly recommend checking this gym out - whether you’re new to the gym or a seasoned vet, I feel like they have classes for everyone and also a full gym for those who like to train alone!

I tried 11 different gyms after moving from Greensboro and none felt right or providing challenging enough classes until I found Hive Fitness! I am now here consistently 6 (sometime 4) days a week for group classes, 2 days a week for 1-on-1 personal sessions and to top it off the staff is just great. I love this place and the people working there. You’ll also meet some great people along the way within the classes. Give the trial a try, you’ll be back!

Hive Fitness isn’t just a gym—it’s the place to push yourself, connect with others, and actually look forward to working out. The coaches bring insane energy, the programming is smart and effective, and the vibe? Unmatched. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and challenged in the best way. Whether you’re chasing gains, endurance, or just want to move and feel better, Hive meets you where you’re at—and then levels you up. Can’t recommend it enough!

I’m updating my review, so I can be entered to win a contest. Nah jk, Hive Fitness is my favorite gym in Charlotte. This place is the best. I’ve gone to other gyms around the city over the years but I’ve been going to Hive for 3+ years now and have no intention of leaving. Staff are friendly and I’ve made friends with other patrons of the gym. It’s a great community. I can’t recommend Hive Fitness enough.

Moving to Charlotte from NoVA I was a bit worried about what seemed like a subpar gym scene. The Dowd seemed like pure hell to me and Lifetime is quite far from South End. I stumbled upon Hive and joining has easily been what makes me love Charlotte. The community at Hive is unlike any other gym atmosphere I have experienced.

Ignite classes are always challenging and push you to your limits. The instructors are phenomenal with creating different classes that keep you on your toes and set you up to succeed. If you don’t love a Michaela Monday, an Erin Metcon, or a Jake Lower Body Day, I’m not sure what to tell you.

Just join Hive. No other gym near South End comes close.

I joined Hive Fitness when I moved to Charlotte and it was everything I was looking for in a gym. I wanted an open gym that had not just machines but racks and it has turf area that I utilize every time I go there to warm up. I also wanted the option to go to a yoga/ class and even sauna when I needed mobility and recovery. On top of that, the staff is kind and supportive.

I moved here last September and tried a bunch of different gyms in the area but none of them quite felt like home until I visited Hive. I come from a CrossFit background and I thought their classes were phenomenal with lots of Olympic lifting variations and cardio intensity. Their trainers are always friendly and helpful giving me modification tips if I couldn't do a movement. I love having the choice between either taking a class or using their open gym. They have the best leg day setup. The back room has everything you need to hit a killer leg day. I am also 4'11" and their equipment is adjustable and short girl friendly which is another plus. 10/10 will recommend to anyone who is looking for a new gym to call home

Hive Fitness in Charlotte is hands down one of the best gyms I’ve ever been to. The space is huge, so you never feel cramped, and they have every piece of equipment you could possibly need, whether you’re lifting, doing cardio, or working on functional training.

What really sets Hive apart is the community. Bryson and the other trainers, create an incredible atmosphere that makes you feel welcomed and supported from day one. It’s clear that Hive Fitness is built for growth—not just physically, but mentally too. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned athlete, you’ll find the perfect environment here to push yourself and improve. I have throughly enjoyed my time at Hive and highly recommend.

Hive is absolutely one of the best gyms in Charlotte - definitely recommend checking it out if you’re living in or visiting the area!! I’ve been a Hive member for several years, and some of the best things about this gym are the community and the equipment!
I always feel welcome when I come in for a workout, and I’ve met some really incredible people during my time there. They host plenty of social + workout events and it’s a great way to meet people, especially if you’re new to CLT.
The variety of equipment in this gym is fantastic! Whether you are into body building, cardio, yoga, group classes, etc - they’ve got what you need! Not only that, they continue to add to and update their equipment so that it is always the best for members. (Plus amazing amenities like an infrared sauna!!) While I haven’t worked with one of their trainers myself, I can tell they are very knowledgable and bring great energy to their sessions!

One of the best gyms in Charlotte!! The entire staff is super friendly and kind, and ready to help you in your workout journey. I feel way more confident in the gym and with weight lifting. They really made me feel like a part of their community. Bryson, the gym's owner is fantastic! Best trainer I have ever worked with. I highly recommend taking their workout classes. Also, I love the variety of equipment and options the gym has to offer. I tried other places like burn boot camp and the experience was simply not the same. Better workout classes and trainers, and I loved that there is still an option to workout on gym equipment if you wanted. Seriously go join this gym.

This has been my home gym for many years now, starting with them as they were still building out the current facility and getting a tour of an empty warehouse. They listen to their members and are always looking forward on how to better your experience. The community is top notch and makes you feel extremely welcomed.

I have ventured off and left this gym in the past, quickly coming right back to it.

I’ve been at Hive Fitness for a little over a year now. First I want to say that it is a gym that fits all types of people and all types of workouts! It has all the machines and weights for the normal lifters. And it has a back room for the more “intense” types which I really liked the separation. The owner is super friendly and always offers help when needed. I highly recommend trying their protein shakes! The locker rooms are clean and great for the after work or break changing and cleaning up. The gym is conveniently location in the south end/lower south end area. The gym is a bit pricey from I am used to but so are all the other gyms around and the quality Hive Fitness gives makes up for it. I will say that parking is a little bit of a hassle if you are coming in at peak times. I also would advise coming in around the peak times because you will find yourself waiting a bit for equipment. All in all the gym has everything you need, clean, friendly, and a great environment for your fitness needs!

By far one of the better gym experiences I can say I've had. After doing some trial classes at a few different gyms last summer, I landed on Hive as my new home. This gym is for sure worth every penny!! It feels like the overall package between the wonderful staff, variety of equipment and classes for all fitness levels, solid music tastes...a solid community of disciplined and supportive people is the cherry on top.

Shout out to Drew, Erin, Carolyn, and Bryson. Always appreciated your knowledge, assistance, and authentic energy! Sad to be leaving the country but grateful for the experience I got to have.

PSA - if you choose to make this gym your new home, choose your gym session times wisely, parking can get a little crazy during peak hours :)

Hive Fitness is the best! I never got the chance to take one of the classes but I could tell that all the instructors were high energy, attentive, and always kept everyone engaged.

In terms of the actual equipment, Hive has everything and more! There were plenty of strength training machines, cardio training machines, and free weights - I never had an issue waiting for a machine.

Hive is an awesome place with a great culture and I would recommend it to anybody in Charlotte or anybody moving to Charlotte.

I have been a member of the Hive for about 8 months now and I love it. I participate in the Ignite classes, and the workouts are phenomenal. I switched to the Hive about being a member of a few of the other popular gym brands and what I like the most about the Hive is that you use the bar when lifting, which is more of what I was looking for.

Trialed 4-5 gyms in Charlotte before Hive and it was by far the best one. Tons of equipment, tons of space, and never too crowded like some other CLT gyms.

Always was able to park right away and they have elite drink, snack, and shake options at the front desk. 11/10 would recommend.

Had the pleasure of visiting this fitness center for an event. Hive Fitness is a great workout gym! They cater to anyone who just wants to walk in and use the equipment and do their own thing to those who would like to take a class and do a full body workout. They also offer barre and yoga classes as well. I thought it would be intimidating doing a workout class while others were just doing their own thing at the weight station, but that was not the case. I didn't even notice the others as I was trying to get my own grove on, at the weight floor. EVERYONE from the employees to even the other attendees were super nice and friendly and didn't make me feel uncomfortable at all. They do have a smoothie station with the BEST smoothies ever! I got the Berry Blast and OMG, and it was delicious, and they are also very inexpensive! Overall a great environment, and I will definitely be looking into their class packages as well. This is located in southend with a lot of bars around so parking can be tight but plenty of side street parking and parking in Rally as well. Great total body workout just before the weekend!

This is hands down one of the best facilities I’ve dropped into this year. Huge, bright, open functional space. Very friendly staff. Very respectful members. There are tons of different modalities to use and different spaces to train in. Even during class hours, it did not feel super packed or overwhelmingly busy. The cleanliness of the space is definitely worth mentioning. It is literally the cleanest gym/locker room area I’ve seen in a gym. Very well kept and reasonably price. Drop in for the day was $15. I went 2 days in a row. Hopefully they have the option to pay a weekly drop in at some point. I will definitely find my way back if I’m in Charlotte for work again.

I started going to Hive in 2022, after spending time at other gyms like F45, the YMCA, etc. All other gyms I've tried in Charlotte pale in comparison to Hive. They have great trainers who actually know what they are talking about, it is never too crowded or busy even during peak hours, and what I personally enjoyed was the mixed membership option that allows you to take classes and have access to the open gym. It is priced very affordably, considering everything you get. If you're looking for a gym in Charlotte that covers everything, stop looking, go check out Hive. Yoga, Barre, HIIT Classes, equipment for just about everything you can think of, and recently a sauna!

Hive fitness is a local gym geared toward big weights and even bigger community. Before joining Hive Fitness, I spent countless hours trying each gym in the area. From the Y, to HIIT gyms, crossfits, OTF, Volofit and many others. None struck the balance and ease and community that Hive strikes seemingly effortlessly. Each employee takes time to support you in your gym experience whether you're geared toward yoga, getting into weight lifting, prepping for a show, personal training, or want HIIT and a variety of classes (through ignite), there is something done very well for each desired experience. It's almost never too busy, the owner is readily available and sociable, open to suggestions and outwardly kind. I've had commiserate experiences with each member of staff here. You can and will find a home at Hive, just show up

The Hive is by far my fav gym I've been to, I joined almost 6 months ago. Used to go to the Dowd y and I go at 5 am so I expect very few people (not the case at my old gym). This gym does a really great job at !!!capping the membership!!! It is expensive but its so worth the price for the amount of people in there, not to mention I have met so many amazing people. I feel comfortable to talk to the trainers and desk staff, and have even gotten compliments from random people at the gym and made some friends. Everyone who goes also seems very professional and serious about what they are in for. I feel super comfortable there, equipment is never taken when I need it and if it is, its rare. I feel like this gym is definitely more of a family than a regular gym and I really appreciate the community aspect of it.
I think as long as there is a strict membership cap, It will continue to be my favorite gym.

First things first I do not do reviews on Google. I do not care about most companies, but this is an exception. I have been going to Hive Fitness for about seven months and it’s my first gym out of college and can say with the same certainty that the sun will come up tomorrow that the staff in the gym itself are the best you can get in Charlotte. It’s one of those gyms where you get that community that the franchises just don’t have. The equipment is more than you could ever possibly need and while I don’t go to the group classes you can tell that the personal trainers are not just highly qualified, but there’s also a clear sense of companionship within the groups. It can get busy from 5-7PM especially on Monday’s, but if you’re expecting to always have whatever you want open whenever you need it I strongly suggest either going in the morning or stop whining and make your own gym in a shed or something and stop being a crybaby. Culture is definitely a word I could attribute to this gym. Beyond the smiling faces and conversations that happen between people you can see that everyone goes there for the same reason: to put in the time. Again this is the first gym I am going to out of college, but I can’t tell its set a high bar for whatever comes next. Also follow them on social media

Been going to this gym for about 7-8 months and really really enjoy it, staff is always super friendly, atmosphere is amazing, you don’t really ever have to wait for anything. The gym I used to go to doesn’t even compare. As long as I live in South End, I’ll always be a member at Hive.

Pros: Cool gym, great location & good crowd. Nice smoothie bar & always stocked up on drinks/bars. Always clean. Huge areas for classes & bootcamp style fitness.

Cons: It’s about the most expensive gym in the area & they don’t have new equipment… that was surprising.

Just an FYI for new members… after you complete your contract term, however long you signed up for, just know that they will continue to bill you and when you cancel after your contract, they hit you for one more month… even though you’ve fulfilled your original contract term & no longer go.

Excellent gym! I've been going for the last few weeks and love the place. Spacious facilities with lots of different machines. I've been working with Chisum, who has given me tons of pointers and has been working hard to get me into shape. Couldn't ask for a more knowledgeable and conscientious trainer. He pushes me to do more, but never so much that I risk injury or burnout. Highly recommend the Hive for anyone in Charlotte!

I left Hive Fitness due to the distance from my house and the high cost compared to comparable gyms in the area. I asked to cancel my membership 2 weeks before the next payment was due as I was going to be gone the following 2 weeks after it renewed (on military orders). My contract had also ended and I was paying month to month. I even asked if they’d meet me halfway and I’d make the last payment for half the price. They flat out refused to work with me which was pretty disappointing considering the owner was a military veteran as well.

The only reason I didn’t give them a 1 star review was due to the fact that one of the owners (Rob) didn’t try to force people to wear masks and allowed members to make their own choice during the scamdemic.

Great location, super nice people who work there, my bf and I love it. They have classes and all the machines you need. Some dark man room in the back right it’s a bit too advanced for me but if you are a power lifter you would enjoy. If the electric or cell phone grid goes down I would probably walk to hive and wait for further instructions.

This gym is I my opinion the best in Charlotte. The prices are more than fare for all the different types of workouts styles available. Personally I go for the open gym and the equipment is in awesome shape. They also offer additional classes like yoga and boot camp style. This place aside from being a just a gym has a community seems very welcoming.

I’m so happy at this gym! I’m so thankful I found hive. I’ve never been to a gym that was so welcoming. The atmosphere is amazing, the staff keeps the place spotless and it has everything your gym rat heart could ever want! I appreciate that management is always making improvements around the gym to better our experience and make being a hive member even more special. I feel extremely safe here as well as just overall motivation to come here and spend my time in this gorgeous gym. I’m legitimately sad on my rest days when I don’t come to the gym that sometimes I’ll pick up a deep stretch yoga class just to have an excuse to come ☺️

Great service staff, clean gym, good machine, cardio and free weight selection. I stopped in on a delayed flight and got to get in a good work out. This is more of a genreral/crossfit type of gym. Not really for power/oly lifters like me, so no calibrated plates, but they do have bumper plates, and lb plates to get in heavy work up to 585 if you want. They have 1 power rack and minimal bar selection, but their bumper plates are good for oly lifters. Anything over 585, may be risky as the bars arent big enough to hold more lb or bumper plates, safely.

Best gym I've ever been a part of. The trainers and other gym goers are all super friendly. It's a true family type of atmosphere, but one that is also very welcoming of outsiders. I've been coming for 4 months and am already in the best shape I've been in years.

In response to some of the negative posts about the lack of masks. It's true, they cannot mandate you wear a mask while running on a treadmill or taking a boot camp. They take cleaning seriously and promote social distancing, but if you're not comfortable being in the same room as people without masks then you should probably wait to start going back to the gym.

After one day I had to sign in and give this place 5 stars after meeting the guy who runs it. Rob and all of the people working out there bring the all inclusive vibe of the new “golden era” of working out / bodybuilding. Tons of equipment, much more than enough. Tons of nice people whether you are learning, intermediate, or advanced, this is the gym for you.

From the moment I walked in the door I felt immediately comfortable. One of the owners (Josiah) stood and talked nutrition with me for an hour BEFORE he even knew I was planning on purchasing a membership. I never felt pressured, I felt like every person there wanted to see me succeed not just take my money. The trainer I have been working with (Brent) makes everything EXTREMELY comfortable. He explained things to me that I didn't know and never pressured me to spend money on extra things. This is by far the best gym I have ever been to, I am extremely pleased with how personal and helpful everyone has been. I would recommend this gym to anyone a thousand times over.

Whether you are lucky enough to live close to this place or live an hour away it is worth the drive! If you are looking for boot camp classes, bar, personal training, yoga, spin, power lifting, or just weight lifting this is THE PLACE! They have great recovery smoothies and healthy pre-workout drinks (without the artificial garbage that is in many of them) readily accessible. If you are a first time gym goer looking to take back control of your health with proper guidance to avoid injury or a "gym rat" looking for motivational pictures of Arnold in a secluded power lifting room you have come to the right place!

This place is incredible. I signed up for this gym before it opened hoping it would be everything I dreamed a gym could be.

IT FAR EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS. The Ignite+ Bootcamps are challenging, they get your heart rate up, and you’ll build some strength. Bryson is a phenomenal coach and has gone above and beyond to protect my health (I have a previous injury) while pushing me towards my potential.

The Transcend Yoga classes are AMAZING. I’m no yoga guy, I’ve never have been. But this was a needed part of my training regimen and Ryan is a stellar coach. The heated power flows have blown my mind in showing me what. My body is capable of.

I haven’t gotten around to NEXTcycle or barreCULTURE yet, but I can’t wait to give them a try. But I also utilize the open gym which has everything I could need on a fitness floor. High quality equipment to build the strength I need and the physique I want. The personal trainers here are NEXT LEVEL.

Give this place a try, the value of this membership is unbelievable. If I tried to get all of this at all the other places in Charlotte I’d spend over 4X more for way less value and more driving. And don’t even get me started on how delicious the smoothies and the açaí bowls are here 😏

Proud to be a part of the Hive Fitness Family!

I go to Hive Fitness every day of the week! It is my home away from home. The owners Rob and Josiah are amazing at answering any of my questions. Jennifer and Alana at the front desk are the best smoothie makers and greeters. The childcare is awesome for my 7 year old and allows me to keep my workout strong. Bryson’s Ignite classes (bootcamp) always push me to limits. Ryan and Michaela have the two best yoga classes around. Plus...there’s still an amazing cycle room, barre and open gym area. I love this gym more than I can describe. If you’re not a member yet...you are seriously missing out!!

This place has an awesome central location. Everyone is so nice.. make you feel welcome regardless of skill levels ..but will still push you. The 2 owners are super nice and ensure the staff is on point with details like knowing your name and greeting you (which does make a difference). Ive had interactions with Rob, Josiah, Savannah, Bryce, Abbie, Mary, Josh Ox, Brent and Alana and have been the nicest most engaged folks I’ve encountered in a gym environment. I’ve only had planet fitness/ Fitness Connection experiences, but this gym is on another level. Whether you want open gym.. yoga, boot camp, barre, Spin .. its here. Clean showers and bathrooms and tasty smoOthie bar for on the go drinks! What r u waiting for?! Sign up!
