Chelsea, NYC

We suggest wearing comfortable, supportive work-out attire. Many of our clients prefer to wear shorts, capris or leggings as you will be getting very hot and sweaty! All of our classes include Dance Cardio intervals, so please be aware that you will be doing a lot of jumping when choosing your tank top or sports bra! Most importantly be sure you have supportive sneakers for all of our classes at Body By Simone.

Yes, we currently sell bottled water at our studio. We also provide filtered tap water for your convenience.

Yes, we have showers at BBS, supplied with shampoo, conditioner and body wash. We also provide towels and hairdryers for your convenience. We do have a locker room.

All of our classes require supportive sneakers. Any brand of shoe is fine, however at BBS we love Newton Running Shoes! Newton’s lightweight design allow you to sense the ground better so that you’re naturally able to work more efficiently and with more stability. Newtons are available for purchase online and in studio – just ask the front desk for more info!

Not at all! You can have two left feet and still enjoy a Dance Cardio class at BBS! We repeat the choreography over and over throughout the class so you have a chance to learn the short routines before moving on. It doesn’t matter if you’re doing the steps perfectly – just keep moving and have fun!

Yes, our classes at BBS are designed to complement one another. We recommend taking a toning class before or after a cardio class for optimal results.

All of our classes are 55 minutes.

Yes, we are happy to help you work through injuries and maintain your fitness level while you are recovering. We require doctor’s approval before continuing a workout while injured and also advise personal training sessions (depending on the injury) so that you receive one on one attention. Our trainers will work to devise a plan that best suits you on your road to recovery.

Yes, we work with woman during and post pregnancy. Regardless of your fitness level, we always encourage speaking with your doctor when starting a new fitness regimen and providing us with a letter stating your doctor’s approval. Pregnant clients are also encouraged to wear a heart rate monitor during private sessions and classes.  Always be sure to notify the trainer that you are pregnant at the beginning of class.

At BBS, we recommend all clients attend class 5 days per week and also encourage a weekly day of rest. The amount of classes you take really depends on your fitness level and goals. While we do encourage pairing a toning class with a cardio class to achieve optimal results, feel free to speak to any of our trainers for input on the best regimen for your individual needs.

We would love that! Pricing and packages differ at the studios, so you would need to contact the studio you are visiting and purchase a separate package for that location. This is also a great time to take advantage of BBS TV!

Yes! We love our male clients. We usually recommend starting with the Full Body class for your first time.
