Word on the Street
"I've worked out all my life, coached classes, all of it. I had resolved myself to the fact that I would never "leave a workout feeling better" because I never experienced endorphins post workout - until Jolly Bodies. I leave every. stinking. time. feeling so good, happy, and sweaty. After only a few weeks of working out here, I feel like a new person."
- Adrianne F.
"The new gym is awesome! The Jollys have thought of everything from the class format to the great smelling wipes. The classes are fun and full of energy and the music is great! All of the instructors are encouraging and willing to share tips and/ or modifications. I can’t imagine working out anywhere else!"
- Laura C.
“Lee Ann and Burke really know how to make anyone feel welcome. The no nonsense approach, which for most means beating you with a dumbbell over the head and saying you should go until you puke, is instead delivered here with science-backed, bro-science-free workouts that are tailored consistently for optimal muscle and cardiovascular development with fun! I hated working out before doing it with the Jollys, but now, I look forward to the self improvement mentally and physically each day! You’ll make friends, and gains.”

I love that JB offers a variety of class formats that focus on strength and cardio, working on specific muscle groups in each class. I can plan my workouts every week to hit my overall fitness goals. The JB community is warm and encouraging and is something I am thankful to be a part of. I NEVER regret a workout here."

"The workouts are painstakingly created to help navigate you through your goals, but the extremely creative vibe as you walk through the doors seals the deal. You can turn the world off while you do you with actual fun and space for yourself as you work out…not to mention the infectious positivity. If you hate exercise, are burnt out or just need movement, JB might flip the script for you like it did for me.”

"My favorite thing about JB is the community. You will feel it the minute you walk through the door. This community is exactly what I need to continue to reach my short and long-term fitness goals. As a busy mom of three, it is hard to fit a workout into my day. But the quick, 30-minute workout formats at Jolly Bodies are efficient and effective. The community and encouragement keeps me walking through the door every day!"
- Samantha M.
"From the very beginning, I could always count on Jolly Bodies to be the place (physically and virtually) that I could go to clear my head and feel better coming out of it. Jolly Bodies 2.0 has brought Little Rock such a unique and incredible spot for fitness and fun. I am always looking forward to the classes and being greeted with a smile. All of the instructors are so encouraging, positive and welcoming. If I had to describe Jolly Bodies in just a few words, it would be 'one giant hug and one incredible workout.'"

"Jolly Bodies is such a welcoming and joyful space and community. Lee Ann and Burke are passionate and knowledgeable but more importantly they are genuinely kind. They see you as a person first and want you to feel supported. The community they’ve worked so hard to build is FUN, silly, and inspiring. I’ve made wonderful friends in this workout space. It’s the most fun I’ve ever had exercising. It feels like the kind of place where you can be yourself and escape the real world!"
