Incredible gym with even better people. The community is truly full of some of the most supportive/welcoming people I've met. This place makes you want to show up day in and day out. Highly recommend

Been attending Empire Training Academy since March 2025 and it’s been an amazing experience! Great coaches, well thought out workouts, and an awesome community. Easily one of the best group fitness studios in Raleigh.

Joined Empire in March and so thankful I did! Well programmed workouts with variety but at the same time not overcomplicated. Awesome community and I genuinely feel excited to work out and come to class every time!
