Old Town

I have been “Shredding” for over 10 years and still love every minute of it! The classes and intensity of the workouts has been exceptional from day 1 and 10 years later it is no different. The instructors are all excellent and you are guaranteed to always get a great workout that is tailored to your fitness level. The staff and management onsite is always very helpful and they go the extra mile to make you feel comfortable right from your very first class. The studio is clean and comfortable and offers a wide variety of products for your use. The owners are also the best! They take an interest in all of their clients and support them through their wellness journey no matter what that means for them. I could not ask for a better sense of community! Give it a try! You will not be disappointed!

I am a long time Shred415 fan! It is probably the most efficient use of your workout time that is hard to beat in terms of calories burned and total body exercise. The floor exercises are fast paced and keep you from boredom and the treadmill can be quite challenging or easily modified as needed for fitness levels, injuries, pre- post- partum, etc. The instructors are friendly and nice and do a great job keeping hard work engaging!

Shred415 is hands down one of the best fitness studios around! The space is always spotless, and the high-energy instructors keep you motivated from start to finish. The combination of cardiovascular and strength training in every class ensures an amazing full-body workout, and the variety of class formats keeps things fresh and challenging. If you haven’t tried a class yet, it’s an absolute must! Huge shoutout to Kendall, Sarah, and Brandon Watts—three of my favorite instructors—who always bring the best energy and push you to be your strongest. Highly recommend!

So happy to find a workout class I love going to!! Always look forward to starting my day with Kendall, Makenzie, and Sarah🫶🏼

Professional staff, great workouts on treadmills or floor weight, inspiring vibes

Such a tough, yet fun, workout! I especially LOVE Gina's classes.

Truly my favorite fitness studio in Chicago! I've struggled with consistency elsewhere but have been Shredding regularly for the better half of the year. Each class is unique and I've yet to meet a trainer who doesn't have the right balance of being kindly motivational and encouraging without being too drill sergeant. Kendall, Ellie, Sara, and Gina have played a pivotal role in helping me stay on track and accountable on my health and fitness journey. Thanks, ladies!

Kendall is hands down my favorite fitness instructor in Chicago. She's motivating + insightful - ensuring her class has proper form and a great time. Vibes are through the roof in her Friday 7:15am class!!!

Kendall has helped motivate me so much during the class! Her music and her vibes are the best!

Kendall Nelson is the best!!! She is so motivating and formulates challenging workouts. She keeps it fun and I love taking her classes!!

I love going to Kendall's shred classes at shred415 old town! Her programming is so thoughtful and intentional and she always provides modifications for each exercise. Kendall's instruction is incredibly positive and supportive while still challenging her classes to push their limits and get a great workout! I recommend her classes constantly and love kicking off my weekend with her Friday 7:15!

Love coming to Friday morning classes with Kendall! Great music and a great pace.

Love it here!! Specifically Kendall’s classes. She is so fun and encouraging!

Kendall is the best instructor ever! You have to go to Friday morning class, 7:15 AM at Old Town it’s the best class in town!!

Shred415 is hands down one of the best workout classes I’ve ever taken! The energy is incredible, and the workouts push you to new limits while still being accessible for all fitness levels. Gina and Kendall are fantastic instructors—they’re super motivating, positive, and know exactly how to keep you going when you feel like giving up. I always leave feeling stronger and more accomplished. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a high-energy, fun, and effective workout!

Love the workouts at shred! Kendall is the best instructor ever: motivating you to push yourself in every class. Music slaps too!

Great class by Victoria!! Fantastic feedback and good form corrections! Love it and highly recommend!

Shred415 is a great way to get back into working out. Victoria G’s class was especially good. Pushed me for cardio and strength.

Sara is amazing! My husband and I tried out Shred for the first time and her class convinced us to join. It was highly motivating and she really emphasized to choose your own pace. Great class for all levels!

This is an awesome workout! The safe is always so nice and friendly!

I always get a great workout at Shred415! My favorite instructors are Ellie V, Alex D, and Gina D. You can go at your own pace and comfort level and have fun working out.

Really enjoyed my class at Shred415. The class was challenging but welcoming to all fitness levels. Staff were friendly and I felt welcomed as soon as I walked in! Kendall was a great instructor and I’d go every day if I lived in Chicago.

High energy, motivating and rewarding workout class led by amazing instructors!! Always leave feeling better than when I show up. Great community to be a part of!

I drop into the Old Town studio when I'm in Chicago for work and always appreciate that I'm able to use the same reservation system and that the format of the class is the same as I'm used to.

My favorite workout classes I’ve ever taken! Every single instructor is so motivating and every time I walk out the door, I feel so accomplished!

Love this place so much! Such a positive atmosphere and the coaches/trainers and staff are amazing. Never felt stronger, could not recommend more!!

Absolutely my favorite workout in Chicago! Shred415 has some of the most amazing instructors in the city. No matter if you’re just getting back in to working our or want a challenge, this is the perfect spot!

I love Shred415! The instructors are super motivating and always get me to push myself.

Front desk staff is very friendly, especially for new clients. The dark atmosphere with loud music really keeps your motivation up as you’re breaking a sweat.

The classes are fine but...
despite explicitly telling them when they asked my phone number I do not want to sign up for their text chain they keep sending me messages. Everytime i text back STOP they will send a long message:
"Ok! I'll help you unsubscribe. What would you like to opt-out of? Please type a number by itself, for example "1".

1. News and Promos
2. Appointment Notifications
3. Stop all
4. Never mind"
I replied with 3 and today, after attending a class, I got another text from them.

Stop spamming people, especially people who explicitly asked you not to.

I used to go to the Wicker Park Shred location for years and recently transitioned over to Old Town. I absolutely love Shred415, there is no better workout in the city. I have been to both Old Town and Lincoln Park locations, I love classes with Kendall, Steve, Claire, Anna and Sam but you cannot go wrong with any of the instructors - they are all amazing!

I cannot say enough kind things about Kendall's total body classes. She is challenging, encouraging, supportive, and always manages to pepper in a joke or two to keep class lighthearted and so so fun. I always find myself stalking her Spotify to like her playlists after class (if you ever have to DJ a pregame, Kendall's Spotify is a lifesaver IYKYK), and have never left her class feeling anything less than strong and successful. I always encourage my first time Shred friends to start with a Kendall class, as she is an accessible and easy to follow instructor, and it is never their last! Will always keep kicking off my weekend with Friday morning Shred -- there's simply no better start to the weekend. 🙂

Kendall is the best instructor and manager. Her classes are challenging, the music is bumping, and the vibes are immaculate

I love working out at Shred! All of the instructors are so awesome and personable it makes the entire experience that much better! If you’re looking for a way to stay motivated or get into working out Shred is the place to be! Special shout-out to Sarah , love shredding with her Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings !

I love working out at Shred415 Old Town! The coaches and staff are great, very attentive and friendly. Even when the classes are full they make sure to correct my form which I always appreciate. The music is always fun. The energy keeps me coming back!

Had a great workout led by one of the owners. The workout is fast paced, fun and challenging.

Shred415 in old town is the best! All of the instructors are top notch and you can always expect to leave having gotten a great workout.

Great HIIT workout to get the blood pumping and body sweating. Great for all workour levels because you can adjust your pace and intensity.
