Join the party & move your body with us in this vibey, judgement-free space!
When you move your body in FUN, fulfilling ways, movement (or "exercise") is an act of self love and not self punishment. And that's what we're all about.
It is our goal to inspire our members to show love and care for their body, mind, and heart every single day, in big and small (and bold!) ways.
Yes, it's hard sometimes. But - We can do hard things. We're built for it!
All you need is the support and encouragement to believe in yourself and your capabilities, and the direction to know where and how to continue leveling-up on your path.
We got you! No workout or class will be the same, and believe it or not, you'll be looking forward to your next sweat sesh, not dreading it! You'll leave feeling more energized, confident, and connected.

How long does it take to see results?
Results take time, but if you’re consistent, they will come. If you are a beginner, results will come fairly quickly; even in only 30 days, you may start to see a difference in your strength and overall fitness. However, you'll notice the impact on your confidence and mental state immediately!
Do I get the chance to meet new friends?
Yes. All our classes are group fitness classes, as this allows you to meet others.
What sets you apart from other gyms?
At TurnUp Waco, we care about your mental and emotional wellness as much as your physical health, because we know these are inextricably tied and intertwined. We're here not only to build physically strong and healthy women, but mentally strong and healthy women.
How often do you recommend coming to workout classes?
If you are a beginner, we recommend starting with 2-3 classes a week, with the goal of working up to 3-4 a week after your first few months. (We recommend including weight training and restorative classes like Yoga to improve mobility, range of motion, and overall wellbeing). It may take a couple weeks for your body to get acclimated to a new form of exercise, so listen to your body and do what feels right. (Also, consult with your physician before beginning any new workout program if you have any prior injuries or health concerns.)
Do you provide free refreshments there?
We have filtered water available to our members. Other snacks and drinks will available for purchase in 2024.
Do I have to be fit to join?
No! No matter what your current fitness level is, as long as you love to have a good time, TurnUp Waco is right for you! Every dance move can be modified and our instructors show some options before each song. Our format is designed for universal scalability, making it the perfect application for any committed individual regardless of experience.
What payment methods do you accept?
We take all major credit cards and debit cards. We do not accept personal checks.
What kind of exercises can I expect during a workout?
TurnUp Dance Fitness is where HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) meets urban / "hip-hop" dance fitness. You'll get an addictive, FUN hip-hop playlist that makes time fly by, and your whole workout feels like a party with the girls!! We categorize our choreograpy into 4 types of songs: Work, Shake, Flex, and Slay. Work songs are the highest intensity and include more of the HIIT components like squats and burpees (which can be modified for lower impact/lower intensity). Shake is just what it sounds like! Shaking that booty!! Flex are the medium-intensity toning songs where we work smaller muscle groups, and Slay are lower intensity songs that focus on building your self-confidence and you get to express all your sass!
Do I have to stop eating my favorite foods to be healthy?
No! A healthy lifestyle has to be manageable and realistic for the long term. We're all about listening to your body and fueling/ nourishing it with what makes you feel and perform better through the day, so nothing slows you down from achieving all your goals inside and outside of the studio! Do enjoy special indulgences and meals! And know that positive habits have a snowball effect. The kinder you are to yourself mentally, the healthier you tend to want to eat. You get hooked on feeling good, and low-nutrient / inflammatory foods just aren't worth it because it makes you FEEL bad. By avoiding excessive amounts of refined carbohydrates (sugars) and being mindfut of your intake of protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats, you will see dramatic, measurable increases in overall health - mental as well as physical
