I've had the good fortune to be in Brooklyn for the month for work. Casting around for gyms, I found BAC, which has a great 1 month intro package. I thought that it would be dishonest to pay this rate, since I'm gone tomorrow, but after a chat with an employee (who encouraged me to join), I signed up. So here are my reviews:
1) There's something for everyone. I do a mix of yoga and fighting stuff, and I was really impressed with the options.
2) More specifically, I signed up for semi-private bodyweight training (BWT), Pilates, and muay thai. All were excellent.
3) BWT was the big draw for me. The class was awesome, and the coach created great classes. Every class was different, but each one hit on the same basic (but important) muscle groups. If I were a long-term resident, this would be the hook that kept me coming.
4) Muay thai here is perfection. However, it is demanding. Between working, yoga, BWT, and the marathon drinking that a business trip requires, I ended up having to opt out. If you're looking for a serious muay thai studio, Big Bear (which is at BAC) is for you.
