Kyle Donovan
"Fierce gym is amazing! I have struggled finding a gym that’s helped me stay consistent with my workouts especially with my schedule. They have a variety of classes and times that works for almost everyone, have a great environment and amazing staff. Vinny has been more than helpful with scheduling and being involved with my progress. Highly recommend! 10/10."
Kaitlin McKenna
"Absolutely love this gym! Such an exciting and welcoming environment. I was always too nervous to walk into a gym until I came to Fierce Academy. Not only have I become more confident in myself, but I have made so many friends. I’ve become so excited about fitness and health. The people here make you feel like family. The workouts are so fun and keep me motivated. I wish i joined sooner! Definitely would recommend this gym to ANYONE of any level of experience!"
Kristin Marsello
"Just get to this gym!! Fierce Academy is a perfect gym for all abilities! Extremely knowledgeable coaches! Coach Sarra makes working out actually fun because she’s full of energy and can get you excited about your health and fitness levels. (You just gotta meet her) She and Coach Vinny can modify any lift or movement for you and keep you motivated to keep coming back to build on your progress! This gym promotes so much positivity, camaraderie, and teamwork that you won’t be disappointed if you give it a try."
