I recently moved to the area and was searching for a gym when I stumbled upon Speakeasy of Strength -- boy am I happy I did! I've always loved movement, but strength training in particular has always scared me and felt very unapproachable. I love that Speakeasy is not only an effective workout, but built on the idea of making strength training inclusive and for everyone.

Speakeasy of Strength is amazing! The small group sessions feel super personal, I get so much attention and support.

The gym is super clean (no gym smell!), the music is always on point, and the whole vibe is just awesome. I truly enjoy weight training here and strongly recommend to anyone looking to add weight training as part of the... read more

I've been a Speakeasy member for over 4 months now and I wanted to share my journey thus far. This is such a unique workout experience and environment that's particularly welcoming to people who are intimidated by gyms or the idea of working out. Up until I started here, I hadn't really worked out since high school. But after a tough year, I decided I needed a reason to get out of the house, move my body and access natural endorphins to help get myself out of a rut. The team at Speakeasy got that 100%. They validated that ne... read more

Hands down the best gym in Brooklyn (and maybe even all of NYC) There's nowhere like it. It's an immediately warm place with heart, soul, and more knowledge and wisdom about how our bodies work than anywhere else I've trained (and I've been in game for a while).
