The Margo's Method

Anatomical training. Backed by science. Results that last.

We got tired of "full body" just meaning arms, abs and glutes. So we built our own method.

Low impact, not low effort

Every class works hard without pounding your joints, so you can keep showing up for years, not weeks.

Hormone-informed

Programming that respects how women's bodies actually change, through every season of life.

Built for longevity

Strength, mobility and cardio in one method, designed around results you keep.

Five formats. One method.

What members say

"Margo's is so much more than a gym, it's a safe haven… Each workout will be a new opportunity to show up for yourself, and every instructor will guide you seamlessly through intelligently planned movement… and prove to you that you're stronger than you think. I came here to jumpstart my fitness and I got so much more: a community, a routine I am excited about, and a newfound confidence."

"I've finally found a place where I'm happy to stop looking for another gym… I just never found coaches who truly cared and paid attention to all of their students, both new and old. What I love most is that this is a place that motivates and pushes you in the way you need while still helping you avoid injury…"

"I can't even begin to describe how life changing the classes at Margo's have been for me… Because the classes at Margo's are set up to be low impact on your joints, I've been able to stay consistent with classes for the first time in my life… [2 years and 800 classes later] The community is incredible, and I always leave the mat feeling better than when I walked in the door."

"If you want a workout space to challenge you mentally and physically, Margo's is the place. My favorite space I've ever been to… [A year later] I love this place more and more everyday. If you want a challenging workout and a community you can rely on, try Margo's!!"

Meet the founder

Margaret Barschow-Blissenbach

Certified Pre & Postnatal Exercise Specialist

Most workouts are built to wear you down. Margaret built one to build you up.

More reps. More sweat. More soreness. And somehow, more exhausted than when you started. Margaret watched the fitness industry push women's bodies into survival mode, spiking cortisol and frying nervous systems, and call it results.

So she did the opposite. Drawing on her work in prenatal and postnatal training and her focus on cortisol, the nervous system and autoimmune health, she created the Margo's Method: real strength, built in a way your body can actually recover from.

You leave stronger, not depleted. That's the whole point.
