  SweatBox specific: Great workouts with fantastic instructors, shoutout to Gwen and Mike, and an actual fun time. Music is on point, the lights coordination is fun, and the classmates are friendly, focused, and keep you motivated to finish what you started. Highly rec! Gym overall: Clean, lots of equipment options with a good amount of space, clear communication and inclusive community from management, excellent parking options, and just a great motivating time. Ballston Vida has been my favorite gym, very glad to be part of the community!

  This is my favorite location of their options (Reston is really nice too but far), the Sweatbox classes are tough but rewarding. Facilities are always clean and there's plenty of wipes available after using the equipment. Towels fresh and fluffy, what more can you ask for from a gym!

  I’ve been a member of Vida ballston and Vida Logan circle for almost 6 months now and I highly recommend Vida! At ballston, the staff are so kind and welcoming, the machines, particularly the stairmasters are amazing. The classes are never super packed and the locker rooms are honestly what makes the experience feel so luxurious here. It’s nice that the parking is discounted to 1$ as well. Definitely worth the money!

  I have been working with a personal trainer at Vida for nearly a year and purchased a large number of personal training sessions because I really enjoyed working with this particular trainer. This trainer was abruptly fired by Vida. I then requested a refund for my training sessions. The managers told me that I could not get a refund because of a no-refund policy. This is extremely frustrating as a customer because I bought those sessions with the intent of continuing training with the trainer I really liked. She got me into personal training and I wouldn't have otherwise purchased the sessions if it wasn't for her work with me. The service I paid for was to continue training with this trainer, not any other trainer that Vida could offer as a replacement. I feel as though I am not getting the service I paid for.

  Freddy Ferrufino, Assistant General Manager at VIDA (Ballston location), exemplifies VIDA’s core values of connection, trust, and continuous improvement. I have been a member at VIDA for nearly three years, and in my most recent interactions with Freddy, he consistently turns casual encounters into meaningful connections. He goes beyond a simple greeting, making guests feel genuinely seen and heard. As a proud VIDA fan, I’ve purchased several T-shirts and pieces of gear that I love wearing during my workouts. While there weren’t many pink options on display (and, honestly, for someone who loves pink, it can never be pink enough!), Freddy went the extra mile by checking inventory and finding a pink T-shirt for me. Of course, I bought it. That small but thoughtful effort reflects outstanding customer service, meeting a guest’s wants and needs with intention. Freddy’s approachable demeanor transformed an ordinary interaction into an exceptional customer experience! I’ve also noticed positive improvements around diversity and inclusion, and I’m especially excited that Zumba classes are now offered during the week. As someone who deeply values inclusion and representation, I truly appreciate VIDA’s diverse leadership team and staff. Overall, I’m a big VIDA fan. I have deep respect and appreciation for the hardworking team and the culture they’ve built, which is inclusive, diverse, fun, and supportive of my fitness goals.
