Specialties

We challenge the status quo of traditional exercise. Most exercise can work okay, and maybe it will get you results; however there’s certainly no guarantee that it will. Is okay and unsure of your results really what you want?

At Synergy Kettlebell Training we believe in thinking of exercise differently. We don’t use machines because then all that will happen is you will get better at using those machines and most machines do not mimic movements we do every day in our lives. Instead, we use our bodies as our machines and teach our bodies to get better.

Our mission is to create a lifestyle of fitness minded days, nights, and weekends because our confidence in that mindset stimulates an environment for lasting results. We truly believe in what we do at Synergy Kettlebell so much that we even guarantee your results!

Come Try Us and Experience Kettlebell Results!

I LOVE Synergy Kettlebell. Come ready to work hard! There are many class times to fit any schedule. The workouts are different every day and include a mix of kettlebells, cardio, TRX, abs, EVERYTHING! You’re in and out in 45 – 50 minutes and get a GREAT workout. The workout difficulty can be adjusted to fit ANY level of fitness – kettlebells are of many different weights so you can start light and work up, and instructors offer modifications for those who are new or have trouble areas. The instructors give detailed instructions and demonstrations of each exercise before every set begins. VERY helpful, even for those of us who have been there a while. They also do a good job of motivating, monitoring and correcting technique to help avoid any injuries.
I’ve been a member for a couple of years, now, and the business has really ironed out the kinks that every business has when it’s new. Pay attention to the date on some of the other reviews because a lot has changed in the past year! One big change is that Synergy has added a new position, held by Colleen, to help any newcomers with technique, explain the membership options, and answer any questions. Colleen goes above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome and comfortable. I’ve seen her in the child care room when there are a lot of kids; she helps clean equipment; assists the instructors in making sure everyone is safely working out. That position is a GREAT addition to the WONDERFUL team of instructors. Another change is increased training for the instructors, which means a seamless, consistent experience no matter what class you attend.
If you’re ready for a workout that makes you sweat and gives you results, then Synergy Kettlebell is for you! I love that it is a judgment-​free environment made up of ALL body and fitness types. Worth every penny!

I have been going to this gym for over a year now. I really enjoy the many class time options and each instructor is motivating. My absolutely favorite thing is the workout variety. I never know what’s coming which is probably a good thing since if I knew we had a million burpees I may opt out. If you don’t like a particular work out its fine because you likely won’t see it again! I tried it on a groupon and have been hooked ever since.

Lisle, IL
I’m a living social deal holder and have two classes remaining before my time at Synergy ends. I would like to say that I enjoyed my time at Synergy, but due to location (I live in Lisle), I spend more time in my car driving to workout than I spend actually working out. It was fine to switch things up with my current routine and I didn’t mind the commute to both the Aurora and St. Charles locations as I knew it would be temporary.
I did most of my classes at the Aurora location, but a few in St Charles. The St. Charles location is way bigger, so lots of room to spread out for the circuit.
I was hating on this place after my first class — you get your first class for free, and it had nothing to do with the coach, or the place itself, it was me. I get frustrated easily but I told myself to keep going, and as all things do, it will get better with time, and it did. It took about 5 or 6 classes to REALLY get into the ‘swing’ of things, along with the beginner workshop that was offered to me. It’s a shame that I’m finally getting used to it and enjoying it, and my living social deal is about to end.
As any group fitness class goes… you will love some of the instructors, and you will hate on some. This goes for school as well, but similar situation in a group fitness class.
Among my favorites at this location are Michelle and Heather. They are awesome!!! They provide all kinds of guidance, correct your form, give suggestions, and just overall motivating. They are both assets to this place.
I took Heather’s classes on Wednesdays in Aurora but this is mainly the location she works at. Michelle conducted the beginner’s workshop, and I took her class on a Saturday. While I was impressed by most of the coaches here, I was not impressed by all and I’m sure members feel the same. This is why classes are offered 6 days a week at different times.
This is a place to try out — the workout itself is ALWAYS changing, you will never be bored. It IS challenging and you will challenge yourself and feel great afterward.

Very disappointed in this. I bought the Groupon and went once. We did calesthetics. I could do this on the app on have on my phone. We did NOT use kettlebells. Then they did the hard sell to try to get me a membership and bombarded me with emails. Would not recommend

I used the free trial class that they offered online. I’m glad I did before paying for the groupon. I was so excited to do this and ready to get started. I quickly found out that you HAVE to be in shape to do this workout. Don’t go in thinking that you are doing a beginner workout and «anyone» can get started. The trainers DID NOT teach you form or how to do it. They just throw you in and expect you to know. I wish I would have known otherwise I would not have gone. It was more like a bootcamp. The only way they helped me with form or explain what I was to do is if I asked.

This place is a SCAM! Save your money and time. The classes run around 30 mins and during the workout the trainers do not help correct your form. I signed up for a Groupon deal and they required a credit card on file. They specifically told me I would not be charged unless I decided to sign up for a membership after my 30 day trial was over. wrong! They charged my credit card without telling me, which is fraud. Refused to give me my money back. An actual membership at this gym is $ 90 for one month which is wayyyyy over priced. Horrible business and they also did not allow me to take home an «agreement» I signed which they told me was about responsibility for your own workout and injury, but it was really so they can charge my credit card without me knowing. Unorganized, horrible staff, and bad business owner.

Started about a month and a half ago — I am obsessed! I have done all kinds of workouts in the past — spinning, yoga, Dailey method, boxing, etc. I love the workouts at Synergy! I don’t find myself staring at the clock wondering when the class will be over. I get there early, do the warm up and when class starts — GET TO IT! The workouts are outlined so you know exactly what’s on your plate. They’re quick and to the point, the perfect amount of time to fit into any busy schedule. And I look like I just got out of the shower at the end! LOL. Nothing feels better and more powerful after a long day at work than swinging around kettle bells! I highly recommend it :)

Bad! Bad! Workouts are too short for your money. 30 mins after you get started. To many stopping periods. They offend you by telling you «what your responsibilities are as an adult» direct quote from Alma. They HOUND you on your first day for a membership. Unorganziged and sketcky Read small print!
