I’ve edited by review for good reason. I’ve been a patron of evolve for about 5 years. Incredible workouts absolutely, but my last visit will be my last for good reason. I am a more petite and lean woman, because o prefer that as my body shape. I had not been in an evolve class for about 6 weeks because I was in Vietnam for 3 weeks, and getting back to my normal routine and jet lag after all the travel. So I had lost a couple pounds of muscle mass for obvious reasons. I I tattoo for a living, so I’m very mindful of the moves I do to protect my hands and wrists, so I often modify some moves to my liking, and the trainers know this. The owner came up to me in the middle of a set and commented of my body saying “ you look really small” like not as a compliment, like it was a bad thing. One; I don’t think it’s appropriate for any man to comment on a woman’s physique, it’s offensive. And just because I prefer to not look like a buff woman, doesn’t mean I should have my body commented on because I have a more lean Pilates body. It was quite offensive and something that had been heavy on my mind since. Not bc I care what he thinks, couldn’t care less really. I’m upset because it’s just out of line for many reasons. No self awareness what so ever. I’ve referred this gym to many friends and clients over the years and have spent loads of money attending the classes that I loved so much. If you’re not in the cool kids: Evolve hydrox athlete group, it’s hard to not feel like an outsider there if I’m being honest. Shareef, my advice to you is to think about what you say before you say it especially when speaking about someone’s body, positive or negative. Sad to say that will be my last class and I will not be returning. I’ll take my money elsewhere to a gym where all bodies are celebrated.

I'm a frequent traveler, and often I buy a day pass because the hotel gyms typically don't have the equipment. I tried sending evolve an email at the address in their webpage, and the email bounced back, then I submitted a question using their online form and still (1 week later) have yet to receive a reply. So we walked their one morning to see what a day pass cost. It's $25 per person, and there were two of us. They said they have a class, but we could use any equipment open. So we looked in the gym and saw a few pieces of equipment we could use. 10 minutes later we were asked to stop using the equipment, because it would be used later. And even equipment that was being used, the members in the class placed their water bottles on them so we could not use them. I asked the staff and after paying they said we could not use it and "well, sorry". So we were there about 40 minutes, spent $50, and could use 2-3 pieces of equipment. It may be a great experience for routine users, but got daily users the customer service was horrible and would look elsewhere .

I've grown up in athletics my whole life with awesome coaches, so going to a gym and joining a group training session is an easy way to get some competition rather than a work out on my own. I know if I've got a trainer who is weak, I won't really get a great work out, and generally won't return to that class. Now if I have a trainer who coaches their classes, I will kick my own butt trying to do my best. I have gotten to know Sharif and Madison for nearly 7 years, and I may not be able to always get to the gym, but I'm a "Raving Fan". Sharif's coaching style is not for the weak, and when I first started working out in his classes I had women 20+ years older than me kicking my butt...I was so embarrassed I had to keep going back, so I could eventually get to their level. That's the type of workout I will always look for when choosing a gym to join: an age inclusive, competitive, butt kicking, don't stop until you drop, and then go again type of gym.

  • Brooke Smith

Evolve is the full package—what I like to call a triple threat. It’s clean, fun, but most importantly CHALLENGING! I have been coming here since they opened and to this day I still never think “well, that was easy” to myself about the workouts. The trainers address every part of the body and make sure you understand what you’re working and WHY, and they go out of their way to call you out by name during class to correct poor form or even a poor attitude. It’s like getting personal training but in a class setting! There is no other gym like this anywhere, but especially not in Dallas. Not only is it a killer workout, but the people (including the owners!) are always warm & upbeat and welcome you into the family with open arms and even host community charity events. I’ll continue going here well into the future.

  • Adam Kamal

Most gyms make you feel like a number. You get in, you get out, and no cares about you. I have lived in Dallas for almost six years and been to a myriad of gyms. Evolve is a different kind of gym, a gym that cares. Sharif and Ramon care about you, they remember you, they push you, and they want you to get better. I have only been a member for a month, but I can't imagine going to another gym. The personal element is only one factor of what makes Evolve so great, the workout classes are FOR REAL. If you bring it, you will see results. I have lost 4% body fat in a month. I've referred many of my friends to Evolve, one of them even remarking, "This is the hardest workout I've had since high school varsity track." Join, you won't regret it.

  • Penny Brooker

5 Stars All the Way: cleanliness, equipment, classes, friendliness and knowledge. In the nutrition and fitness realm, Sharif and Madison are it and Evolve is the place to be. They have created a place that fosters a community spirit and friendly atmosphere, making it easy for people of all fitness levels to feel at ease in the gym. Sharif’s workouts consistently challenge your endurance while keeping you interested and engaged and Madison can help you navigate the food and nutrition side, which is a whole other challenge. Together, they are a great team to have on your nutrition and fitness journey. Evolve – Great gym and even better community.

We stayed in an AirBNB directly below this gym. Based on the previous reviews, going down there face to face would have done no good. As early as 4am they start blasting music and talking way too loud on their mics so loud it rattled the dishes in the sink. I understand the gym is their buisness but whether there are AirBNBs above them or not....Dallas's quiet hours are till 8AM. I would even be happy with 6am.... but 4am!? Was not very happy and this is truly based on this business and their noncooperation with quiet hours. I have seen i was not the only one who experienced this. All it takes is a little gesture for surrounding neighbors.

  • Skyler J Fike

I’ve been an official member of Evolve for a little over two months now. For a long time I was just doing ClassPass, but it became increasingly evident that Evolve was basically the only gym I was going to, outside of my normal runs and yoga. Making the switch was a no brainer, and not just because of the amazing programs and instructors. The sense of authentic community, being around likeminded, hardworking athletes, cannot be overstated. It feels like I’m part of a family, because they truly care about every part of your well-being. I can’t recommend Evolve enough. If you’re considering joining, consider no more. Dive in. It’s worth it.

  • Thomas Schiano

The atmosphere and spirit of this gym will make you a stronger person. Sharif and Madison get to know you and help you reach your goals. The members are friendly, and it doesn't take more than one or two classes to get to know some of them by name. Workouts are TOUGH, but you've got Sharif or one of his team members right there to step in and push you across the finish line - whether you need help with form, an exercise modification, or just a kick in the rear. I have tried numerous other gyms, both big and small, and this is downright the best fitness concept, experience, and team.

  • Sam Downey

I decided to take my fitness more serious a little over 2 years ago and was referred to Evolve by a friend, and I’m glad I took his advice as Evolve has made working out enjoyable again. Every class is something new and introduces new lifts and workouts that you are able to do on your own. Whether you’re trying to lose weight or get stronger, the staff helps adjust the program so you can achieve your goals. If you’re on the fence about joining, take advantage of your first class free and I promise you will get one of the best workouts in Dallas!

  • Justin Garcia

  • Johnny Gonzalez

My experience at Evolve has been nothing short of amazing, and I recommend this gym to all. Evolve is so much more than a gym. It’s a community of coaches, athletes, and friends with a common goal: to get better together. If you’re interested in a challenge, check them out. I’m confident they can help anyone reach their fitness goals. COVID-19 Related: The staff takes every precaution to keep the athletes safe. Mask policy, social-distanced workouts, and the strict sanitation of equipment all apply.

  • Jennifer Powell

I have been to a lot of gyms in DFW and worked out with many trainers but Sharif is THE BEST!!! He challenges you, corrects you, learns EVERYONES name, plays the BEST music for you to kick ass on the workout and just an overall great experience! I travel from Las Colinas to attend his 5:30am sessions and then go to work in Grand Prairie - which is a lot but so worth it! Couple that with Madison's amazingly warm energy and the BEST nutrition tips - it's a one stop shop to help make the BEST YOU!

  • Jordan Tanoury

Evolve is a fantastic gym. Sharif and Madison are a power couple for sure. Sharif continues to push my limits every day, making me work my hardest. I love the Met45 concept. It combines strength training with metabolic work, which has helped me lean out and gain muscle at the same time. Madison helps support my nutritional goals by offering food guidelines and macros to help me achieve my goals. If anybody is looking for an intense workout and great community, I would highly recommend Evolve!!

  • James Mims

Hands down the BEST group workout class I've ever attended! Andy is an amazing coach who really has a way of working the entire gym ensuring that everyone receives a bit of one-on-one coaching. The various workout stations offer the perfect amount of variety. The owner had managed to curate something truly special. I am excited to make this my new gym home! WARNING: This class is tough in the best way possible, but everything can be modified to help you meet your personalized fitness goals.

  • Brooklyn Gelling

Owners with the biggest hearts (small business, husband and wife). They give back and have built a home and family for all of the people that walk through the door. You’ll be greeted by a smile, strangers will embrace you and you’ll all struggle together. The hardest workout I’ve ever done and I can’t stop coming back for more. The trademarked workouts are designed by Sharif and are guaranteed the best you’ve ever done. Come in for an awesome workout and even better community.

  • Tim Lepore

Sharif and Madison are the best duo in Dallas. Sharif's training is like nothing I have experienced in the past, hard work and a lot of sweat and you'll be where you want to mentally and physically. Madison has gotten my diet in check for my personal goals and even offers a meal prep service if you just don't have the time. The music is awesome and very clean facilities. Even has a big shower if you need to get to work on time. I would give Evolve 100 stars if possible.

  • Julia Lepore

Sharif is the best trainer I’ve ever worked out with. The music is awesome, the facility and amenities are top notch, and Sharif’s coaching makes the classes challenging and fun (while being super effective)... in 45 minutes. The atmosphere is inviting and motivating, especially during a 5:30am class. Madison and Sharif have done a great job welcoming all new members into this gym and I feel lucky to be a part of the Evolve community. You can’t go wrong with this gym!

  • Mike Moore

Evolve is an awesome gym with a lot of excellent equipment!! Sharif and Madison are an awesome team and have the best workout routine around. I have been in sports all the way through a D1 college and these are awesome workouts. They are constantly mixing up the workout so it is never the same routine and everyday is different. I started about two months ago and noticed a huge change and continue to get stronger. They are motivational and push you to the limit!!

  • Leah Garcia

If you’re looking for a workout to push you where you’ve never gone before and a gym to call your second home, EVOLVE is the place for you. Sharif, Madison and their team put their soul into creating an environment that makes you feel part of the family, but don’t play around...you’re gonna put in work when you take a class. Feel certain this is THE best choice to get the best workout in Dallas or anywhere around the metroplex for that matter.

  • Erin Vickers

I’ve been coming to Evolve around 6 years now - a few months after they opened their doors. Each time I’ve left the gym I’ve felt challenged, humbled, and excited to continue pushing my limits. Sharif and Madison have built an incredibly community here. I’ve done many workouts in Dallas and trained with many people, but this place will always be special to me and will always be the best workout in Dallas. Highly recommend to everyone!

  • Kat Clark

I recently started going to Evolve, and I am OBSESSED! I've taken class from several trainers - Sharif (owner), Jack and Carly, and they are all awesome!! The vibe there is super motivating, and this is probably the most challenging yet enjoyable workout I've done in Dallas ... and trust me, I have tried it ALL. This is a workout that makes you feel like a true athlete, and you'll never leave class regretting you came!

  • Tai Kapaji

I walked in to ask about a membership and no one was at the front for at least half an hour. The music is too loud to hear anyone inside, or for them to hear me, so I decided to walk around the gym to find someone. When I finally got a hold of a staff member they said for me to wait at the front and they'd be right there. After another couple minutes of waiting I decided to leave. Terrible customer service.

  • Mimi Dang

I’m new to the city and was looking for a new place to gym that wasn’t a corporate gym. Evolve has group classes as well as a gym to do your own personalized workout. There are so many new and also familiar machines and equipment. Owner was so kind and helpful in showing me how to use the machines too! Clean facility, as well as clean lockers and showers! Thank you for your space, definitely will be back.

  • Molouk Yaseen

This is hands down the BEST gym in Dallas. Sharif, Madison and his coaches ensure the gym is well kept, clean and maintained as far as equipment. The gym is full with incredible coaches that truly care about your performance and success. Sharif is a genius and knows what he is doing. This'll get your mind and body right, you will see results with performance and overall well being. HIGHLY recommend.

  • Beck TJ

Very loud music at 5am in the morning every day, I live in the same building where this gym is located at, I wake up to their music every morning, the guy who speaks with a microphone is way too loud. He is totally inconsiderate about other people. I understand it is healthy to be up that early and be in the gym, but some people have difficult jobs and are really tired so they don't wake up at 5am.

  • Joe Dion

Evolve will get you in the best shape of your life and then keep pushing you. This isn't crossfit and it's much harder than something like orange theory. A mix of cardio and weight training, it's more like athletic training, you'll be out of breath from the start. Great coaches, great music, friendly members and a workout that changes every time pushes you harder than other approaches.

  • Alicia Sidey

BEST GYM IN DALLAS!!! Owner Sharif will take your workout to a whole new level. I’ve never been in better shape in my life! I’ve been going to Evolve since the gym opened three years ago and will be a lifetime member. It’s the real deal! Gym is sanitized and clean! Outdoor workouts are challenging! Staff is like family! No judgement for new comers, everyone is so nice and welcoming!

  • Krista Castro

I've tried just about every gym in Dallas and NOTHING compares to how amazing Evolve is! No matter the class size, you'll always feel as though you are getting specialized personal training. Sharif and Madison are an incredible duo and will help you reach any fitness goal you set out for. The locker rooms and gym are so clean too! I won't be leaving Evolve for a long long time!

  • Angie P

I have been to many group exercise classes but my best experience by far has been with Evolve. The staff is very helpful and are much more interested in maintaining a long term relationship than charging fees for "life happens" tardies/absences. The classes incorporate top notch equipment and knowledge from great coaches. Highly recommended!

  • Brianna Christman

I don’t know about their workouts but I’m staying in the same building as them and they are blaring music at 5AM, my floors are vibrating and I can hear the instructor yelling over the microphone…good on them for having a sound system equivalent to that of an event center, but maybe have a little common courtesy for the neighbors…

  • Chelsea Mocio

Couldn't be happier with my decision to join Evolve! Madison and Sharif have been so welcoming and have gone above and beyond to help me assess my fitness goals. Sharif is so motivating and really knows how to push you to your limits, even at 5:30am:) Thanks Evolve for holding me accountable and making work outs fun!

  • Charley Tidwell

Everytime I come here it’s a challenge, but I love it. Sharif, Tyler, Peyton, and Megan always make coming here welcoming. This gym challenges you to give everything you have when you come in. I took one class and instantly signed up. I can’t recommend them enough no matter what your physical fitness goal is.

  • Kim Fiorentino

Evolve has the best owners, trainers and workout in Dallas! I have been a member for almost 3 years and every morning for the past 3 years every workout has been engaging, fun and makes me push myself. I have met such a great group people and feel so much joy every time I walk through the front door!

  • Catherine Adcock

Awesome gym and awesome people. All of the trainers will push you beyond what you think you can do but not further than what you’re capable of. It’s a great place for people of all kinds of athletic ability to start but only meant for people who want to get stronger, faster and healthier all around.

  • Brittany Jenkins

The BEST gym. Sharif, Carly, Kaylee, John and the many other trainers are incredible. I’ve visited lots of gyms and I felt welcome the first time I stepped into Evolve. Great equipment, clean and friendly people. Come check it out!

  • Callie Fisher

Sharif and Madison are the best of the best! This gym has been such a blessing the past couple of months to me. I recommend this place to anyone wanting an amazing workout and an even better community to be surrounded by!

  • David Mason

This gym has it all! Great, clean facilities..friendly staff and members, but most of all, the group classes are Awesome! If you’re looking for a challenge, no matter what your fitness level, you can find it at Evolve!

  • Jeff Adams

Evolve is definitely the total package. Whether you want to work out on your own or get your butt kicked in the workout classes, this place has everything you need to get in great shape!

  • Reid Krammel

Great gym to go to if you're in the Downtown area. I work 1 block from here and always get a great lift in at lunch time. I'm training to beat up 5-7 rats at the same time!

  • Shaudd T.

Very sad to see hours don't accommodate night lifters. Work hours 6-6. And tucking my kids in is a must. I get to la fitness about 9p daily but I would love a better option

  • Spencer Cox

RIDICULOUS that they play such loud music at 4 a.m. when people are trying to SLEEP! Why in the heck would you play such loud music downstairs from apartments??

  • Nina Forouzan

Evolve is one of the best workouts in Dallas! The trainers, owners, and staff are amazing and highly educated in the fitness industry. Mind and body workout!

  • Nathaniel Adams

I’ve been going for over 8 mths now and have nothing but positive things to say. From the instructors, to the content and equipment it’s nothing but 5 stars.

  • Porsche Ellison

Sharif and Madison are constantly going out of their way to make sure EVERYONE is not only satisfied, but happy. Evolve’s energy (and music) is awesome!

  • Alexander Friel

The energy is amazing, and the facility is second to none. Great team environment during the workouts...makes it easy to want to go and put in the work!

  • John Sama

Smaller gym but it has everything you need for a great workout (including multiple rowers!!!). Friendly staff and nice atmosphere.

  • Patrick Hoogendijk

The community, music, and drive make you want to get up in the morning and go! Bang it out in 45 min and feel good all day.

  • Nick Pinho

The challenge, the coaches, the community. Everything you need all here. They really are committed to their athletes.

  • Jowonder Man

Walked in..asked about time and rate..the lady at front desk couldn't be more dismissive or indifferent
