This studio is pure magic. The variety alone—spin, yoga, barre, circuit strength, and so much more—pushes your body to new levels by challenging you in fresh ways every single day. Their programming is unreal: if you show up seven days a week, you’ll always find exactly what your body needs, whether that’s deep recovery, heart-pounding intensity, or a solid weight-training session.

After more than a decade in the fitness industry and years working as a fitness professional, I can honestly say this is one of the most thoughtfully designed and effective fitness programs I’ve ever experienced. And the customer service? Top tier. If you want to feel physically challenged and emotionally pampered, this is the place.

love this studio! The classes are amazing—challenging and full of energy! The 5 a.m. sessions are the best; they always help me start my day in the best way. I’m always greeted with a warm welcome, and I truly love this place. Whenever someone asks me for a great place to work out, this is the one I always recommend!

Amazing unique and innovative clases. I have had a great experience with every single one of the teachers. I really like that they have 45 min clases! I am impressed with the friendliness of the staff ( and owner) and with the cleanliness of the place. They do a very good job taking care of their equipment too!

I wish I could give this place 10 stars. I am currently 6 months pregnant and the instructors have made every effort to make me feel comfortable/included by adding modifications if needed. You won’t regret coming here. Staff is friendly, studio is always clean, and there are multiple classes you can take. Thank you Mindy and motiv fitness!

i went to mōtiv for the first time today, and it was the most amazing experience! after being out of the gym for a while, finding motivation to get back in was tough. it doesn’t seem tough anymore! the minute i walked in i was greeted with kindness and open arms, and i haven’t been this motivated in years! the cycle class followed by barre was tough, but it was still so much fun thanks to the energy of the instructor, and the people around me. this place is a community. and i’m so thankful to have met some incredible women today! so excited to continue coming to motiv, and i’ve already recommended it to half of my family in the hour it’s been since my class. join!!! you won’t regret it! :)

This studio is my dream place to get a workout in. I’ve always had a tough relationship with working out and I looked forwarding to coming here every day after I joined. Just to start with the people, the instructors and owner are all the kindest, most supportive and motivating people. The energy they bring to every class and just the studio in general is always perfect! They are able to give modifications for every individual in every class while continuing to make sure you got an amazing work out. They offer classes I’ve never tried before, which I was very nervous to try, but I ended up loving them because of the way the instructors went about introducing them to me and how much fun I always have. Overall, my only regret with Motiv is that I was only visiting Houston to see my mom so I couldn’t stay longer. I look forward to live streaming in and going for a class every time I come visit! They also were so kind when I had my mom as a guest in classes and even persuaded her to switch gyms and she now loves it as well! Overall, would 100% recommend to anyone! It is an amazing place.

I have been going to Motiv since March of
2022. I work out daily Monday - Friday and sometimes I catch a weekend class. Motiv has been a life changer for me. I absolutely LOVE all the classes (Barre, Cycle, Circuit Strength, Circuit Cardio and Jump) to mention a few! The instructors are so inspiring and great at explaining every exercise and what it does for your body. Everyone there is so sweet, motivating and positive. I highly recommend Motiv.

I go to Motiv every other day. The classes are innovative and fun, the instructors are awesome and creative (they come up with new routines often so you never get bored), the space is clean, the other regular patrons / motiv-goers are equally awesome. Also, they have a cute shop in the front with many wellbeing items and cute clothes.

I drive down from Dallas as much as I can to take classes at Motiv Fitness, that's how amazing this place is. It is hard to decide which class to take. My sister has to take double classes sometimes because she cannot even decide. Their facility is clean and modern. I love the staff because they are always friendly and very helpful. The instructors actually put a lot of thought into their classes and they are challenging and fun at the same time. I cannot say enough good things about this location.

I’m new to this studio but tried a cycling and trampoline class both with Sofia! They were both incredible. Love that the cycling classes uses a ball (like in barre) on the handle for doing push-ups. Such a fun, unique idea! Can’t wait to go to more classes at Mōtiv when I’m in the area.

To understand why I love mōtiv fitness The Woodlands so much, you need to know a bit of my personal backstory. I had an undiagnosed medical condition for a few years that led me to gain about 70 pounds (I gained 30 pounds alone in just one month) and I had so much physical pain that I lived with constant nausea. When I finally got a diagnosis, my doctors recommended some yoga to help my body learn to breath and function as it is meant to.

The instructors and owner were so, so welcoming to me. Think about it, I hadn't done any physical activity for years, I was very uncomfortable from how much weight I had gained and I didn't have the money to buy any new clothes to work out in. I often times had to wear my husband's clothes until we could afford better options for me. I was so so nervous to go to a class where I likely couldn't do half the things and looked ridiculous. But the instructors showed me ways to modify so classes could meet me where I was at. I'm just over a month in, and I have grown so much. I even tried a few classes that I never would have had the confidence to try because I knew I could modify it or take a break when I needed it.

That's why I love mōtiv fitness The Woodlands--the instructors focus entirely on growth. There's no judgement and no pressure. I think in one class an instructor showed like 5 different ways to do a single move to give everyone the right level of effort for them.

Don't get me wrong, if you are far along in your fitness journey, these classes will push you. They don't hold people back just because part of the class isn't ready for something. They will show you how to push yourself at whatever level you are at--including people I would describe as having superhuman fitness abilities.

I can't wait to see where I am at in a year! And in two! And three!

I wish I could give it more than 5 stars! It seems no matter how many classes I do, they all seem to feel different. A good thing for someone like me who has the attention span of a flea. You won't be bored and yet at the same time you won't feel bullied by the instructors if you have to take it down a notch. Gelena and her team are supportive, motivating and overall just awesome humans. We all want to work out with people we know and instructors we like and admire. Love the fact I can live stream or in person...no excuses!

I have been taking classes at Define for some time. As a business owner myself, I was quite impressed by their quick response to COVID and their ability to start live streaming classes. It's very easy for people to say oh I have Peleton, or I have blah blah live stream BUT here is the DIFFERENCE, I know and have personally taken classes with every instructor at Define in the past. So when one of them says; let's go, dig, get your shoulders out of your ears...it resonates because all of those things have been said to me in person! I love this LOCAL gym, the heart, the professionalism the abiity for them to stay relevant in a time of BIG uncertainty. Bravo to Define!

The staff at Define is top notch, makes it a point to know everyone's names, always have a smile on their faces and the facilities are immaculately clean! As a marathon runner and triathlete, I was looking for something new to try that was just as exhilarating and adrenaline pumping. I was told about the bounce class and immediately fell in love! This is the perfect class for someone with ADD who needs that adrenaline rush. I also love that they have classes at 5am so I can start my day feeling accomplished! If you've never tried a class at Define, go do it. Your 1st class if free! Those who attend the class are friendly, welcoming and make you feel a part of their community.

I have been coming to Define since my family and I moved to Texas last year. Define has exceeded my expectations as the studio offers more than just one type of exercise program. In addition to the Barre workout, (which is intense in the best way), I have returned to my yoga practice and added trampoline to my weekly routine. I have become stronger and leaner and have not been this toned in years. The biggest bonus is that the studio offers childcare for most of the classes. I’m not sure why it is so difficult for studios that tend to boast about “female empowerment” to also offer childcare. Define truly gets it- moms want to work out, too! Thanks G!!

The best workout experience you'll get. Like, just try 1 class. You'll be hooked. I have wasted so much money on traditional gym memberships that I never used because gyms are horrible and intimidating. There's always 1 trainer just waiting for you to not know how to use a machine so they can swoop in, and a handful of dudes waiting to tell you they like your tattoos (barf). Define is lovely, the staff is phenomenal and the classes have gotten me in the best shape of my life in 3 months. Worth every penny.

I am going to date myself with this pop culture reference, but this place is like Cheers. Everyone knows my name; they remember what injuries I have and help with variations; know my favorite juices; little things going on in my life; the clothes (omg!) … Someone mentioned this already, but you feel like family!

I am a yogi and barre devotee and found these classes to be fantastic! They are challenging, but not competitive, light-hearted energy and I really dig the music and the instructors. The classes are also different each time, so you are bored doing the same thing every class. This is my go-to studio for yoga and barre.

Their Rev (spin) class I was more hesitant to try. I am not a cycler and don’t enjoy this activity, but you can’t diss something you haven’t tried, right? If you have taken a spin class before (as I have) and felt it wasn’t for you, give this a try. This wasn’t a mindlessly boring class with some ridiculous music with an instructor off the bike and detached. NO, this is a dance party on a bike, set to candlelight and night club music. I am grateful for the low lighting especially during sprints when I am sweating my ass off looking like a drown rat. So worth it!

Super easy system to sign-up for classes online and reserve your spot. The classes are busy and there's a reason for that! Just don’t take my spot. :)
