Editorial Review for MonQi Fitness NYC – by Joanna Prisco
In Short
What separates this Upper East Side facility from other gyms is its pricing system--it's strictly pay-per-use; there's no monthly membership fee, and therefore no commitment. Clients can get the same offerings as any other well-equipped gym--cardio machines, yoga, Pilates, classes such as kickboxing and a dance studio with a shock-absorbant floor. They'll just have to like the un-gym-like studio's monkey mascot and mostly pastel decor.

The setting is much better than most of the places i've taken classes - everything always seems well-run, clean, bright and cared-for, maybe because it's somewhat intimate so there's real attention to detail. But the reason I go is Norma's Iyengar yoga class. She is a clear and infinitely knowledgable teacher, challenging yet able to tailor each pose to the individual student's needs, taking into account everything from that day's level of ability to an old injury - and she always manages to surprise us with some new twist. No pun intended. it's also nice that the staff knows your name, it's a good atmosphere where people take what they're doing seriously but are unfailingly pleasant.

I have been to other gyms around the city and none are quite like MonQi Fitness. The atmosphere is very welcoming, the staff knows almost every member, and the owner always makes a point to check in on the clients. The gym floor is never too crowded, unlike many other gyms you will never feel rushed to finish your workout. The personal trainers are very knowledgeable and are always willing to help. Usually when I workout two of the personal trainers, Tom and Tracy, are on the gym floor and with clients , but will always show me new excercises to make my workout new and challenging. The classes at MonQi are always a great workout, but you'll have fun and laugh at the same time. Some of my favorites are Cardio Kickboxing with Ahmed, Total Body Tune-up with Renouard, and any of the classes taught by Lyn. No more searching for the right gym !
Pros: Great staff, affordable prices, fun classes!
