Pulse Gym & Studios, Newport RI

Jacki has amazing energy and variety in her classes and boot camps. I've been attending for years and could not live without it!

I have recently started Boot Camp with Jackie. It is so fun, hard but not intimidatingly so, and I have seen results in a matter of a couple of weeks. Such a great atmosphere and wonderful people to start your day with. All of the instructors there bring such a great energy. I am hooked!

Pulse is the best! A variety of classes and trainers for whatever workout you’re looking for. Jacki is welcoming to everyone!

Not only are all of the employees here amazing but all of the guests are as well! What an outstanding place to be!

Great little gym that packs a punch! Kelly is a great personal trainer and I would absolutely recommend her. Definitely deserved the 2023 RI magazine gym of the year award

PULSE is truly amazing! Liz, Annemarie, Pam, Lynda and all the other trainers are inspiring and motivating in their classes. There are no startup or cancellation fees - unlike any other gym! Cannot recommend this place enough.

Pulse Gym has become our whole family’s gym! Specifically my son Eli has special needs and Cam worked with him to make sure he knew how to use the equipment, he can now go independently to Pulse! That is a huge step for us, Pulse makes that possible with its amazing atmosphere and staff! Thanks Jacki for creating such a dynamic inclusive space to get fit!

I have been to several gyms in the Newport area, and Pulse is hands down my favorite! I have been going to Pulse for about 6 years in total. Jackie and her team of trainers are wonderful, positive and full of energy. They are super accommodating to different schedules, fitness levels and offer modifications if you have an injury or health condition.

They push you to perform your best, and never make you feel badly if you are just starting off. You will hit your fitness goals going to this gym and never be bored with classes!

I have been going to Pulse Gym for many years. I love it! I take the classes which are varied, good time options and great teachers. What I like about Pulse-is that everyone- the teachers, trainers and members- are all so gracious. I am on the older side and never feel out of place but welcomed. There are lots of equipment there for those that want to work out independently,

Jacki and her team are one of a kind - always giving to the community and getting us healthier!

I have been working out with Jacki and the team at Pulse since I moved to Newport 8 years ago. I’ve done bootcamps, barre, cardio and strength class, outdoor classes …. All of the classes are fresh and challenging. The community really feels like a family - there is no pressure, all positivity and some fun competition. As long as I’m on the island I won’t workout with anyone else! Thank you Jacki and team for years of fun and support.

I love working with Kelly at Pulse. As a personal trainer she has really helped me. She's very accommodating with her schedule and also keeps the workouts different and challenging. I'm not an expert in this field but she certainly has gotten me to where I feel terrific.

Game Changing.

Like many people, I spent the better part of two years away from any gym because of COVID. I found comfort in the daily routine of riding a stationary bike in the morning and hitting the treadmill after work (all from the comfort of home). It was the source of my sanity during those times.

In the process, I lost two things (not including my mind), weight and muscle.

When the restrictions started to lift, I knew I needed to change my routine, but I had no idea where or how to start.

I knew I wanted to lose weight, add muscle, and be healthy about it. To do that, I needed the help of someone who was an expert in all the things I wasn’t and willing to hold me accountable.

Enter Coach Kelly.

Her process started with an interview to gain an understanding of what I was looking to achieve and what my lifestyle was. Then she put forth a plan to achieve it.

We got to work, I saw the results, and we laughed (a lot). Every workout was a new challenge, and Kelly showed me how to change my lifestyle the right way.

Unintentionally, she has become a very important person in my life. Someone whose guidance I trust, advice I take, and whose jokes I laugh at.

Signing up for personal training services is easy. However, the key is to find someone who is going to invest in your long-term success and develops a plan with you to overcome the inevitable challenges that will pop up from time to time.

If you sign up to work with Kelly, you’ll have an amazing experience. Just know that I will always be her favorite client.

So happy that I found Pulse! I have avoided the gym for far too long. I wish I had known what a positive, supportive, friendly vibe Pulse offers. And the best decision has been investing in private training sessions with Courtney. Given a history of injuries and surgeries I had far too low expectations for what Courtney could help me accomplish. I am stronger and trimer but most importantly I FINALLY enjoy working out. Courtney is the perfect balance of understanding and no nonsense. She respects where you are coming from but she believes in what you can achieve and helps you believe it too. One of the best decisions I have made this past year!

I cannot rave about this gym enough! Just started on my second bootcamp with Liz. After one session with her infectious smile and tenacious spirit I was hooked. I had never lifted a weight in my life but Liz made me feel so comfortable and was so encouraging it started to come with ease. She has helped me lose 55 lbs since June! If you want to change your life for the better and look and FEEL your best self, I HIGHLY recommend signing up and taking one of her classes. She is truly amazing absolutely one of a kind!

I love working out with my personal trainer, Courtney Walsh! She is my motivator, yoga guru and life coach. She makes working out fun! I wish there were more machines for lifting weights and at times the music is really loud but I would recommend Pulse.

I began personal training with Brianna a few months postpartum. She helped me to regain confidence and to enjoy working out again! She is extremely knowledgeable and supportive. Her enthusiasm is infectious!

I hadn’t been to a gym or a personal trainer since Covid - just walking biking and kayaking - as lovely as this is for my spirit - I found that as I’m fast approaching 60 the weight work outs was something my body sorely missed - I signed up a a 10 pack of private personal training w Courtney Walsh and her kind yet focused approach with a healthy dose of reality got me back in my work out groove- I joined the gym again- started doing my own workouts to supplement my weekly private sessions s Courtney and realized a second round of privates was in order- I love working out again- I love working out with Courtney and at Pulse - it is so great to be surrounded w like minded fitness peeps- I feel better than ever and 5 years old this year from a double mastectomy - I feel like my workouts, because of Courtney and Pulse, have reminded me the incredible importance of strength training, stretching in addition to cardio. Thank you for the stellar, warm and welcoming friendly professionalism - so happy to be back in the groove and look forward to another round of privates- Courtney Walsh and the team at Pulse is some of my favorite joy now.

Huge fan of Pulse Gym! Jackie and her team are awesome. There are a ton of class options and all equipment is in great condition. If you are interested in personal training, Ann Marie is a fantastic coach. Our family adores her! She is incredibly knowledgeable about health and wellness and very committed to her clients.
