This place is fantastic. I’ve done several kinds of HIIT format gyms over the years and this one is my fav. The way the day of the week focuses on a muscle group, and the variation of exercises, keeps it getting monotonous. The coaches are fantastic and culture is the best! Perfect balance of accountability and community!!! It’s the longest I’ve been consistently gone to a gym.

Free first session during early pregnancy totally sold me on this gym! Realized it was exactly what my body needed to feel strong. Now working out at least twice a week with awesome coaches Kim and Nick. Definitely recommend checking out ISI Ballantyne for a good sweat!

The coaches are amazing and the workouts are awesome. The community of members is wonderful. I started working out 6 weeks postpartum with no strength training knowledge. I’ve continued to show up for over two years and feel stronger everyday!

I’ve been training at ISI Bally for 3 years now, and I can honestly say it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my health and fitness. The energy at this gym is next level — from the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with positive vibes and a community that feels like family.
The coaches at ISI aren’t just knowledgeable — they’re passionate, encouraging, and genuinely invested in your progress. Whether you're a beginner or experienced, they know how to push you in all the right ways while keeping things fun and engaging.
I’ve not only lost body fat but also gained muscle. Every workout leaves me feeling stronger, both physically and mentally. If you’re looking for a gym that combines expert coaching with a supportive, high-energy atmosphere — ISI is it. 💪🔥

ISI Ballantyne has changed my body at 45 years old and 3 kids later. The science behind ISI works! Nick and his team have been so supportive and knowledgeable. Commit because this is your perfect partner in your pursuit of health and wellness.

Beware of FRAUD!!!
I was a member of ISI Ballantyne some time ago. For personal reasons I decided to end my membership and followed all protocols. It was an easy process HOWEVER, last year in August, without my permission or knowledge they decided to reinstate my “membership.
For seven months they have debited my account, $1,050 later, I find myself in the position to get BBB and small claims involved because there is no accountability from the owner/company for the fraud being committed.
Fishy business they have going on!!!

I am using Class Pass and was excited to try my first class with ISI Elite. I drove there which took me some time and I got a notification 15 minutes before the class started saying “class cancelled”. When I arrived I asked why and they told me that not enough people signed up for the class so they had to cancel it. I asked them why they chose to notify me 15 minutes before the class started to let me know. They said they tried calling me early but my phone number wasn’t on the class pass file. However, I just checked and it is. (Maybe a class pass error?) They also said they emailed me that they canceled the class which is true but again only 15 minutes before the class started! They apologized and said they are giving me a free class for next time. That is nice of them, but just be aware that they may cancel your class with an extremely late notice! I also think that just because not enough people signed up is not a good enough reason to cancel in my opinion.

I’m in the best shape of my life thanks to ISI. I love being able to focus on the workout without the stress of planning a workout of waiting for equipment to open it. It’s a strong 45 minutes. Bonus points for having a room for my kids to hang out and watch tv in while mom works out!

I’ve been with ISI for 16 months. ISI has such an amazing community! I love that ISI never does the same workouts each day and it’s for every level. Never in a million years did I think I’d fit in..but it’s been the best decision I ever made. The sales leaders Kolbe, Andrew, Mae are always there with the high energy even at 5am. The coaches go above and beyond to make sure they know you, your comfort level, any injuries, and will always push you to the next level. I’ve never stuck with a gym for longer than 6 months until I started ISI. Coach Kim has inspired me to run my first 5k and is always helping me build that confidence! The franchise partners Nick and Nicole have done an incredible job really getting involved in the community! It’s really great when you see the franchise partner, head, performance coach, and all the other ISI coaches actually work out with us too and saying that they practice what they preach. We’re one huge family and I’ve made some amazing lifelong friends. I am now accomplishing things. I never thought I could a year ago. ISI Bally will always be my second home!

I typically train on my own but I enjoy getting out and taking classes to switch up the scenery. I dropped in for a class at ISI-Ballantyne this week and it was a great experience! Super welcoming environment and the workouts were challenging but enjoyable. I'll be dropping back in again for sure.

Truly enjoyed my time yesterday. Honestly, I was so nervous, 1. I haven’t been around a ton of people since the pandemic and 2. I am a fit kind of person but to my surprise it was a very fun, challenging but yet fun class! So amazed that I signed up after class.

ISI BALLANTYNE is just what I needed.
You go non-stop for fifty minutes. You will move to different blocks in the gym as the trainer keeps time. Reservations are required for each session. The trainers keep you moving, however you may workout at your own pace. So if you need to stop and catch your breath that's cool also. You will work out with members with different fitness levels. It is worth checking out if your do it yourself routine needs a kick.

I’ve enjoyed the workouts and community at ISI. I like that people are there to workout and be accountable, and the staff is friendly, professional, and attentive without being overbearing. If you are looking for a workout regiment that will challenge you while also meeting you where you’re at, you want accountability and a sense that your peers are also looking for the same, and staff that are happy that they can help you meet your goals, ISI Ballantyne is a great place to check out.

I have worked out for many years so of course I’ve had a variety of experiences from boot camps ,boxing ,lifting ,running, etc . When my gym shut down earlier this year , I worked out on my deck for a while then found ISI Ballantyne. I went to a few of their outdoor classes and my plan was to go back to my gym once it opened . Well I couldn’t leave . :) The trainers are amazing and push you to do your best but also make sure that you are doing everything correctly . The owners are amazing as well and take pride in making sure their facility is cleaned properly after every work out . You see a lot of the same people working out so it’s kind of like a new gym family . Everybody encouraging each other etc. Come check it out... you won’t leave :)

I am a founding member of the ISI Elite Training Ballantyne location. I am a self described "cardio junkie" and was all cardio, all the time. I am a seasoned runner covering every distance from 5K to Boston Marathon. I never really liked strength training and so I never did it. Well, after battling recurring injuries over the last 15 years, I figured I would give something else a try and joined ISI. Well, right before they were to open, Covid hit. This turned out to be a blessing in disguise as they were able to offer outdoor workouts before most gyms were allowed to open. I have to say, being forced to do something different has been such a blessing for me. I have come to love my workouts at ISI and have met some really awesome people- both employees/trainers and fellow athletes. If you are tired of doing the same thing, dealing with overuse injuries, or just want to try something different, give ISI a try! You won't regret it!!

Excellent new fitness facility in the Ballantyne area! ISI Elite Training Ballantyne is part of a growing fitness brand. Membership allows you access to any of their locations, which is great when traveling. The workouts are 50 minutes of athletic based training, with a focus on a different muscle group each day (rotate between lower body, upper body, and core/cardio). It's an intense workout led by a fantastic group of experienced trainers, who will watch your form closely and offer modifications for injuries or limitations. They can help scale the workout to any fitness level, and will challenge you regardless of where you're at in your journey. If you've participated or been interested in bootcamps or CrossFit, these workouts have many similar elements (minus the heavy barbell Olympic weight movements from CrossFit... mostly dumbbell variations at ISI workouts).
This location is the largest ISI location in the area, which will allow for ample space to workout indoors once we're allowed inside again. In the meantime, multiple outdoor workouts are offered every day with proper social distancing and equipment sanitized between each use. The amount of variation that the coaches come up with is truly impressive, especially given the current outdoor exercise limitations.
Owners and coaches are great people and honestly care about your progress towards your fitness goals. They'll push you to do more than you think you might be capable of and hold you accountable for attending classes. The members are friendly and encouraging as well, cheering each other on as a family.
Finally, pricing is very competitive compared to other boutique fitness options without sacrificing any of the quality. You can also get some free trial classes to try it out before committing to a membership, so you have nothing to lose. Give ISI Ballantyne a try, and I'm sure you'll be glad you did!
