History

Opening an exercise studio was an idea that had been developing in CEO Terri Walsh's head for years. Finally, after 15 years of filling classrooms, successfully directing aerobic programs and training scores of private clients, she did it.

Revolution Studio officially opened in June 1997 after a practice run at a nearby dance studio and the addition of two partners, Jeff Barneson and Ken Moody. Together, they form a powerful team affectionately known in the industry as the 'trinity'.

The atmosphere they've created is part serious playroom and part raucous research laboratory. You'll see trainers sharing information, classes in development, theories being testedS. there's always something happening at Revolution Studio. From the moment you walk in the door, you're 'in training'. No one is 'too good' to learn something new, share an idea or join in the fun. You can feel the energy, it's infectious.

It's this infectious energy that after only one year, took Revolution Studio from a one floor, 4000 square foot space to a two floor 8000 square foot bright loft facility. The Studio has a private training gym, a boxing room complete with boxing ring, heavy bags and competing amateur boxers, as well as a spinning room vibrating with everything from techno to salsa!

In Revolutions' first year New York Magazine named the spin classes as the Best Of New York! Cyclists now come from all over to train for the popular NY/Boston AIDS rides as well as to keep up their edge in the off season. An impressive Gerstung floor showcases the main aerobic studio on the first floor along with the main training floor that's filled with specialty equipment like pilates machines, agility boards, climbing ropes and physio balls. It's a trainers' heaven and a clients playground!

The Studios' attention to the Boxing and Kickboxing craze has not gone unnoticed. Revolution Studios effort was again rewarded for the second year in a row. This time, Thai Boxing, was named as Best Of New York from New York Magazine!

At Revolution Studio the partners commit themselves to maintaining an open, motivating and supportive atmosphere. There is no membership fee, and there are no 'dues'. The Studios' flexibility, and 'pay as you go' philosophy is a welcome alternative to busy New Yorkers. This philosophy also ensures that you NEVER have an unpleasant experience. The Studio partners are in it for the long haul, and serious about the clients success. That's why everyone at Revolution Studio believes, and ultimately, succeeds.
