New York Sports Club in Somerville

I have really enjoyed coming to the Davis NYSC because of the classes! I have taken many classes with Anna because she is welcoming, encouraging, and always pushes me to do my best. I’ve also taken classes with Amy who is supportive and enthusiastic! They both do such a good job of helping you learn how to exercise with good form and keep you coming back.

The gym is slowly deteriorating. Management doesn't do the upkeep, machines stay broken for months, lost hardware has never been replenished despite multiple asks for the last year. You can order things overnight on amazon, yet they find excuses. Basic cosmetic repairs just never happen. Too sad to see this happening, and now there is a competitor around the corner.

I've been coming to NYSC/BSC in Davis for 10+ years. Under the current management/ownership, it is MUCH improved from pre-Covid times. Best improvement is the extensive schedule of group classes, with many great instructors. - Sharon's Pilates and Yoga classes are top notch. She has extensive knowledge of both practices, and does a great job emphasizing the proper technique to all levels of students. - Elisa's Yoga classes also top notch. She pays close attention to each student with helpful adjustments. - Angelica's various classes are always challenging, fun, and humbling. Check out her Core class to see what I mean. - Other awesome instructors include Mia, Macaulley, Charles, and Anna. Can get crowded during peak times, like all decent gyms.

I have been a member at Boston Sports Club for a year and a half. The equipment is decent but truly I keep my membership for the classes. I have gotten into the best shape of my life taking Sharon’s Pilates and yoga classes following an invasive surgery. I truly believe Sharon’s classes helped me heal better and faster. I also love Chris’s yoga class and Gary’s Pilates and barre classes. I’ve taken a few barre classes with Tanya and a few yoga classes with Zoe and Elisa and love those, too. I have had great experiences with all of the instructors and love being a part of this positive community!

Very welcoming and helpful staff! I have been taking personal training classes from Jon Knopf for almost 6 months now and he is a great instructor. As a person who goes to gym to be healthy and not as a hobby, definitely not intimidating and the only gym that I felt truly comfortable in.

This is a nice gym right in the middle of Davis Square, with good views from the stair machines looking down on the bustle of the Square. I particularly chose this gym because of the strong, frequent list of classes. I just took a Strong Nation workout class with Tracy last night and it was great!

Boston Sports Club offers a good selection of classes and equipment. Among the various options, Angelica Teixeira’s classes stand out. I’ve been taking Angelica Teixeira’s classes for only three months, and the progress I’ve seen is simply incredible! For years, I would sign up for a gym membership, go for a couple of weeks, then lose motivation and quit—wasting money and feeling more discouraged each time. But Angelica changed everything. She is the first instructor who made me truly enjoy working out and, more importantly, helped me discover the joy of taking care of myself. Her energy is contagious, her guidance is inspiring, and her ability to push you beyond your limits while making every session fun is unmatched. Angelica is the kind of instructor everyone wishes they had—knowledgeable, motivating, and genuinely invested in her students’ success. Thanks to her, I finally look forward to my workouts and feel stronger, both physically and mentally. If you have the chance to take her classes, do it. You won’t regret it!

review takes into account this is a gym located in city, so different expectations vs gym in suburbs (such as LA fitness). overall, pretty good gym for me who works out 5-6times a week. about 3-4 squat racks in total (3 can be modified to do other workouts), 2+ horizontal and 2+ incline bench press etc. one platform upstairs for deadlifting. plenty of free weights. room for cycling upstairs, many treadmills, could use more elliptical machines, some stairmasters do not work.. I usually do not have any issue getting on the machines/equipment i need since i workout in mornings.. can’t say much about how busy it is after work hours.. overall solid choice
