CHICAGO’S NEW HOME FOR
INDEPENDENT PERSONAL TRAINERS
Located just south of Andersonville in the heart of Uptown, JT Training Studios is Chicago’s Premier Personal Training Rental Space. With six fully-equipped strength training stations, a shared warm-up area, and a customer/client lounge, we have everything you need to provide your clients with the best possible service.
Personal trainers are our customers, so there are no minimums and no contracts. And since each training station is identical and rented by the hour, there are no crowds and no waiting for or sharing equipment. EVER.
About JT Training Studios
JT Training Studios was created with a simple belief: personal training should feel personal again. After years of seeing how traditional gym models often prioritize volume, contracts, and crowded spaces over real outcomes, the founders saw an opportunity to build something different for both trainers and clients.
The studio was opened to give independent trainers a professional, supportive environment where they could grow their businesses without getting lost inside a big-box system. It was also designed for clients who want more than a generic workout, offering a private, focused space where training is built around individual goals, accountability, and long-term progress.
From the beginning, JT Training Studios has been about creating a better experience on both sides of the training relationship. Trainers get the freedom and tools to serve their clients well, and clients get a space where they feel seen, supported, and confident in the work they are doing.
Why Community Matters
Community is at the heart of JT Training Studios because fitness does not happen in isolation. People make progress when they feel supported, respected, and connected to something bigger than a workout.
JT Training Studios is committed to building a welcoming environment for trainers, clients, and local partners, including members of the LGBTQA+ community, neighborhood businesses, and anyone looking for a more inclusive fitness experience. The studio believes a strong community is one where people show up for each other, celebrate progress together, and create opportunities for everyone to thrive.
That commitment also extends beyond the studio walls. Whether through local involvement, sustainable choices, or partnerships that strengthen the neighborhood, JT Training Studios aims to be more than a place to train. It is a place where people can build healthier lives, stronger relationships, and a deeper sense of belonging.
