Great local company. Several of my residential home cleaning clients who we service their homes for regular maid service come here weekly for classes. The customer service is top notch starting with the trainers, to the front desk staff, and right down to the owner Jon! 5 stars!

OMGEEEE! Had the best time at Swoot. One of my friends recommended Swoot over a year ago— I passed this place often and kept telling myself I would go. Decided to go on yesterday for a Slow Burn class and it was EVERYTHING!! I actually felt more of a workout during that class than I did at the gym w| my trainer. Made sure to book another class w|in upcoming days! This gym is located Uptown right in the Garden District on Magazine. Great location, great instructors, an entire vibe!

AMAZING! I was in town for a conference and managed to sneak in a class before my day started. Snapping my shoes on in the spin room was confusing for me because it is different than other cycling studios, and as I was trying to figure it out, the owner comes in and was so gracious and kind and got me set up. The fact that the owner is so actively engaged and hospitable makes this place a gem. I will absolutely be coming back here again and recommending it to all my friends who will be visiting New Orleans Orleans. It’s definitely part of the NOLA experience, the hospitality and the great workout. Other studios could learn from them!
