The staff members are excellent, the selection of well-maintained equipment is great, and the friendly environment feels like a natural fit within the Boulder community. Id highly recommend Mountains Edge to anyone, regardless of their current level of fitness or experience.

Ok wow! Amazing customer service and the best gym Ive been to since taking a 10 day road trip of the state. Literally a hidden gem in an unexpected place. Tons of equipment and machines and Tim is so friendly and provides amazing service.

I love Mountains Edge Fitness! The location is nice with no traffic in the area, so getting an early morning workout before work has been perfect. BUT what I love most is the staff and other members. I’ve never had any issues with other members such as waiting on equipment, etc. The staff is also very very kind and welcoming. Highly recommend this place!

I started coming to Mountains Edge fitness instead of my gym in Denver to wait out the traffic before commuting home. The gym has all of the machines that you could need, and far more than my Denver gym. All of the other customers are polite; I never have the issues with machines and sharing like I have at other gyms. Moreover, the staff is absolutely wonderful, welcoming, and enthusiastic. I cannot recommend Mountains Edge Fitness enough!

Everyone who works at Mountains Edge is extremely nice (especially Tim and Jesse!) and the environment is so friendly and welcoming. If youre looking for a community within your gym this is definitely the place to go in Boulder! :)

Fantastic gym! Still captures the elements of what makes Boulder unique rather than the fast growing chains it’s starting to become. Besides that amazing staff who are very knowledgeable and willing to help with whatever. I’ve been to all the fancy gyms and spas’s but this truly feels home. Hope you come check it out and have an amazing workout!

I stopped at this gym when I was in boulder overnight. First time in the city. Gym has a funky vibe (it’s in what appears to be an old bar and restaurant attached to a hotel) which was interesting. Tim at the front desk was so kind and helpful. The gym had everything I needed to do a full body strength training day. Will definitely go back again the next time I’m in boulder.

Fantastic gym!At Mountain Edge it is a lot about the culture and welcoming atmosphere that you can really feel each and every time you visit. A local business with facilities connected to a hotel make this gym going experience quite the unique one, while skeptical at first you will find in good time that Mountain Edge has all of the equipment and trinkets you desire to develop the perfect workout program. With a wide variety of classes and personal trainers at your disposable for a reasonable price, Mountain Edge is going to be one of you best options as an avid fitness enthusiast in Boulder. Come on in :)

This gym is great when it comes to availability and space. Its never crowded, and I barely have to wait for equipment at all. Its a very low key workout, in a good way. They also have a good number of fitness trainers if thats your sort of thing. Staff is very friendly and its honestly an excellent value compared to other options in the area. My only gripe is that some of the cardio equipment is a little dated. The weight stuff is too, but lets be honest iron is iron so no big deal there. Definitely come check it out.

Tim made us feel right at home. I called at about 8:30AM and said we were from out of town, looking to get a day pass. We showed up at 10:30 and were greeted at the door by Tim as he says “YOU MADE IT!” He gave us the tour and let us get to work. This gym is in the bottom of a hotel, and the most unique thing you’ve ever seen. It’s complete with everything you need. Affordable rates and unparalleled customer service. Thanks Tim!

This is a hidden gem - hands down one of my favorite gyms ever! Its a quirky space but comprehensively outfitted with all the equipment youll find at a more mainstream fitness center. The staff are also beyond friendly and accommodating. I come here every time I travel to Boulder on business, and miss it when Im out of town!

Review №18

Agree with Felix, this Gym was great and the people who run it are so incredibly kind, dedicated and awesome. The Gym has what you need to get a good work out in, stay healthy and feel comfortable doing so. Ive been in all kinds or Giant Chain gyms and this place was one that I enjoyed going to the most. The staff are awesome, the clientele range in ages and everyone is welcome. They even have a little library section that you can swap and take books to read at home. The Personal Trainers are incredible and they offer a range of classes. If I ever lived in Boulder again, I would be a lifetime member!

This gym is great! The front desk staff is always friendly and welcoming. They offer a variety of classes led by top notch, experienced instructors who know how to lead a class for all fitness levels. I get a great workout every time I come. The weights / cardio area is never crowded. This gym is not a fancy, corporate owned club, but locally owned and operated. It has all you need for a good workout, without breaking your bank account!

Yesterday I went to two classes, Athletic Aerobics and Cycling with Sara. Both classes were great! I really liked the instructor, Sara, her friendly and upbeat attitude kept everyone in the class enthusiastic all the way through. I also appreciated the fact that she explained how the specific exercises we were doing were improving our fitness. I also enjoyed the cycling class because of Saras personable attitude and enthusiasm. I would recommend both to anybody who wants to get a good work out and still enjoy themselves. I definitely felt like i was pushing myself in the classes, and am feeling good about it today.

Wonderful, local gym in south boulder!I love their wide variety of (small, not over-filled) group classes, especially cycling and athletic intervals. Staff is always friendly and accommodating and every group instructor I have ever had has been encouraging and energetic.I rarely have to wait for any equipment and it is always kept in good, clean condition. Nothing but positive experiences at this gym and shockingly its affordable as well!Keep up the good work!

Mountains Edge is definitely a hidden gem! Been going there for the past four months and its been the best gym experience Ive ever had.

This gym is fantastic! I started going to Shannons spinning class with a friend almost two years ago. Then I started personal training with Shannon and I was hooked! The space is a little quirky but thats part of its charm. Theres never a wait for weight machines or cardio equipment, the classes are fun and different every time you go, and the staff and customers are incredibly friendly. Whats not to like?

Want to have great and unforgettable experience at a gym, go to Mountains edge fitness! They accommodated me with all my work out needs and are super friendly. I enjoyed the clean environment most of all. With all the traffic going in and out of the gym they always kept the place organized.The people are great and easy to get along with. If you have questions about classes or how to use the equipment theyre more than happy to help. And if you know what youre doing and want to get a quick workout in this is the place to do it. The place has plenty of equipment to go around and I never had to wait for a machine or weights.I definitely recommend this gym if youre new to the area or if youre just curious. Youll thank me later.

Mountains Edge has been an amazing gym to call home for the last year! All the staff are friendly and supportive. The array of classes make finding a workout routine that fits your schedule very doable and theyre all a lot of fun.Out on the rooftop in a spinning class, there is nothing more inspiring than the amazing view this gym holds of the flatirons! I like knowing that Im part of a community that I can trust, so Mountains Edge is the perfect place for me!

I loved Mountains Edge. I recently moved away for business but while i lived in Boulder i had a great experience here. Im kind of a geek and when i first joined I pretty much knew nothing about fitness or gym culture. Everyone i met there was kind, helpful and non-judgmental and it was a very encouraging environment. The trainers there are great too. I think anyone from an avid gym patron to someone whos never been on an elliptical would enjoy working out here. Thanks for taking the edge off getting healthy guys!

I love working out at Mountains Edge Fitness Center! Ive been a member for over 12 years and would not switch to a different gym. It has all the equipment you need in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The trainers are knowledgeable and skilled. Ive tried many of the classes and they are so fun. There is no need for the glam and fancy big gym when you can have everything to workout right in your neighborhood.

I love Mountains Edge Fitness! Coming from someone who used to hate going to the gym, I can truly say that this gym has changed my perspective on working out. Not only does this gym have friendly and knowledgeable staff always available to help, but the equipment is always kept nice and clean. I never had to wait in line to use the equipment which is definitely a plus for me!I also love the variety of classes that are currently offered. They are made to suit all gym members of all ages and skill level. This was a perfect fit for me because I immediately felt welcomed in many of the classes I had never tried before (ie Cycling).One of the most important aspects I loved about this gym was feeling welcomed. It motivated me to want to come back and truly is where I belong.I would definitely recommend this gym to anyone!

Was about the buy the membership because despite the run down gym, had a good price. During my tour I asked about showers, I was told yes you will be given a key to a room in the adjoined hotel when you need a shower. Came back later, ready to hand over my credit card when I last minute asked to see the showers. Guess what, no showers I could see. Apparently the hotel this gym is a part of doesnt even save a room for the gym if the hotel is booked. Hilarious.

Friendly staff and a nice workout environment. Its never too crowded at this gym, the staff are nice, the atmosphere is not judgmental or pushy like 24 hour fitness. Additionally the Taekwondo class is amazing and included in the membership, along with other select classes. I would recommend this gym.

Review №38

This is a humble gym that does not boast nor brag. If you are looking for a country club, this place is not for you. If you are looking for a place where you can work out and feel welcome, without waiting for machines, without feeling intimidated by anyone, and for an unbeatable price, look no further. They are currently having a 3 months for $99 promotion, which is a steal. If you live even remotely in the area, this place is worth checking out. It has won my heart, and the heart of many in Boulder as well.

It is nothing fancy as a gym, but it is really cheap and it has the necessities for getting a workout. That said, Id recommend it almost exclusively for the fact it gives you access to a taekwondo class run by a phenomenal instructor and an amazing community. My husband and I signed up for the membership so we could join the TKD sessions and it was worth every penny. Normally tkd instructors charge for the honor of joining their classes. The man who runs these classes does it entirely for free and he is incredibly passionate about it. It has been a great honor to know him.

Be warned!! Mountains Edge has moved from its old location in the Table Mesa Shopping Center to the disgusting, dirty, run down Broker Inn. It now is set up where the restaurant and bar used to be: filthy carpet, holes in drywall, dirt/dust everywhere and the smell of old fish (I assume from back when the Broker was cool and famous for its shrimp cocktail). The equipment is extremely old and the membership is no bargain for what you get. Look elsewhere for your fitness needs if cleanliness and equipment mean anything to you.

Review №42

Great gym with all the equipment you need (they even have a hack squat machine, which is rare for gyms in the area), ample free weights, and 2 squat racks (again a rare find for a gym in the area). Reasonably priced. Friendly staff. Great atmosphere and amenities

I love taking Jens pilates class on Monday mornings to do some great stretching and core strengthening. Jens teaching style focuses on each individual listening to what their body needs that day, not on everyone performing a certain number of reps in sync with each other. She provides a variety of ways to perform each exercise in case anyone has bad knees, wrists, etc. so that everyone gets the most out of the class. Jen also shows different ways to make each exercise harder or easier so that you can push yourself as much as you like. I always leave class feeling refreshed and ready to start another week.

Unfortunately, I am writing this review as I cancel my membership at the best gym in Boulder....due to my new home in North Boulder I am just not able to get down to Table Mesa enough, and it really sucks.There is no better gym in Boulder than the Edge, and that is not up for debate. The friendly/awesome staff, great equipment, and overall inviting atmosphere make it a true joy to be a member. And the pool access!If you are on the fence about joining this place, please take that leap and sign up. Grace is a great manager and will help you with whatever she can.Good luck Mts. Edge, I will truly miss you!

Last week I went to Jans Hip Hip Hooray workout class at Mountains Edge Fitness...And let me tell you, my hips are hooraying:) Jan uses the perfect balance of stretching and strength training techniques that are comfortable for people who have hip injuries or who simply want to increase their range of motion. This class is suitable for all age and flexibility ranges. — at Mountains Edge Fitness.

Weve had the best experience at Mountains Edge. The facilities are great- tons of different exercise machine, and a large free weight section. The staff and customers are always friendly and respectful- never any feelings of judgement here! Theres also a large cardio room, and plenty of classes to take. Plus, the gym is in an interesting setting in the old disco room at the Broker Inn. I would highly recommend this place to anyone!

I absolutely love this gym and use it 4 times per week. It has a convenient and easily accessible location in the Table Mesa Shopping Center, and it has an incredibly friendly and helpful staff, a variety of high quality equipment, and an overall great atmosphere. Even at peak hours, the gym is never too crowded, and the people who work out there are courteous and friendly. I never have trouble finding someone to give me a spot!I also appreciate that the gym and locker room are always clean, and both the staff and patrons do a great job of keeping the weight area orderly (i.e., dumbbells, exercise balls, and other equipment are always where they belong and easy to find). They even offer an excellent array of snacks and drinks, so you can refuel during or after your workout.Its also the rare type of gym where everyone can belong. I see all types of people there, ranging from beginners hoping to get into shape to hard core fitness enthusiasts and everything in between. All these types mix together well, as there are always people smiling, chatting, and generally having a good time. No negative or stuck-up attitudes here! Its also very family friendly.As someone who has been working out commitedly for over a decade, has very high expectations of gyms, and has been to many gyms throughout the country and knows how they compare to one another, I put this gym at the top of the list of gyms Ive used in terms of overall quality. It provides so much value and satisfaction, and yet it doesnt charge you an arm and a leg for membership the way many gyms in Boulder do. Ive been very happy at this gym, and Im confident that others would be, too.

My husband and I have been members of Mountains Edge Fitness for many years, especially like their classes which really motivate me to keep working out. Sometimes I visit the club 4-5 times in a week. Mountains Edge relocated to the Broker Inn this past fall and I enjoy coming to the new location, a cleverly designed retro look.The location feels spacious and the upstairs fitness classroom is ideal. The Brokers kitchen down the hall is used occasionally for catering and baking, sometimes were working out to the warm smell of cinnamon. There are a huge variety of classes for all levels of ability and interests--cardio, sports fitness, interval training, weights, yoga, balance, stretching etc. The instructors are top notch, enthusiastic, take care that you exercise properly and encourage you to push yourself just a bit more. Thank you for keeping me in shape.The front desk crew are super! Friendly, welcoming and it puts a smile on my face to walk in the door to a friendly greeting and the daily trivia question. Bottomline--this club is more than just the facilities, its also the people who use it and the people who manage it, that make coming to work out a highlight of our day. Love you guys!

Review №53

I took the balance and strength class here, and I was pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere, the level of difficulty, and the attitude of the other members, and instructor.I am 23, and exercise daily, so i figured a class like this wouldnt be much of a challenge, especially when i considered that i was the only male in the class, and the only person under 30. I was wrong. Everyone was encouraged to listen to their own body, while still pushing themselves. At the end of the hour long class, I was drenched in sweat, clenching the handrail on the way down the steps, and smiling ear to ear. Highly recommended class for people of all ages and abilities.

MEF is the Cheers of Boulder. When you walk into the place, the staff has a friendly greeting, trivia question for the day, helpful information on use of equipment or on the classes that are offered upstairs. Also, there is a place to sit and talk to friends and staff that is comfortable and inviting. I absolutely LOVE MEF.

Ive never been so happy to have a gym membership! Quiet, clean, not crowded, with plenty of equipment. I have never had to wait for the weights or cardio I want to use, which is really nice. I like everyone who works there as well. I havent taken any classes yet, but I have used the pool benefits at the Millennium Hotel, and I really like those accommodations as well. I will keep this membership for as long as I live in Boulder!

Review №58

In a town full of expensive and flashy fitness options, Mountains Edge offers a low-key and comfortable alternative. I am able to focus completely on my own workout without feeling pressured, crowded, or self-concious (as I have in other gyms). MEF offers a quiet atmosphere (I never have to wait for the equipment I want), but they also cultivate a sense of welcoming community. There is a strong sense of rapport between the members and staff, as the workout area is often peppered by friendly conversation and words of encouragement. The sing-along spinning classes are a unique and fun way to work out, and the club is consistently working to further enhance the facilities and offerings. A great no-fuss option for Boulderites.

If you live in the south Boulder area, joining this gym is a no brain-er. A great size considering the traffic flow throughout the day. I usually worked out after I got off work around 5pm, and still never had to wait to use equipment (cardio/free-weights/machines). Also, I noticed that few people took advantage of the Mountains Edge partnership with the Millenium Hotel pool and sauna. I would have kept my membership but moved down to Denver.

Fantastic fitness club. The classes are FUN and a terrific workout (and work-in!). The instructors are incredibly qualified and knowledgable -- cycling, kundalini yoga, essentrics, pilates, yoga, weights, balls, foam rollers, zumba, and yes, BumpNGrind. Gym is mellow and has all you need in equipment and trainers. Staff is super friendly. Best part of my day!!
