I love this place. Kevin walks his talk and offers a holistic approach to developing as a human through movement and reflection. He is grounded, present and available for coaching. Authenticity is celebrated and I feel more comfortable here than many spaces. There is comradery in the group classes and true desire for growth in a lot of people here. I truly love being here.

I learned about Locomotion and Kevin from a good friend quite awhile before I actually started going. The more conversations we had the more I learned and realized that if I was ever going to break my streak of 8 years not working out that Kevin was the one. Honestly I was a bit skeptical when I walked in and didn’t see the typical gym set up. By the 2nd personal training session I was completely hooked. It’s a totally unique experience tailored to what your body needs as much as what you want. I’ve been amazed at my transformation after 6 weeks. I believe again that I’m capable of pushing myself and that I’m strong. Kevin’s approach is cerebral, encouraging and confident. I started with a chronic neck injury, which was my excuse for not working out, and Kevin has worked around it. I realize now we’ve been addressing it without avoiding it. Kevin’s approach is different for everyone and that’s a testament to truly understanding the individual client. I cannot emphasize enough how much I recommend visiting Kevin for a consultation.

Hello there!My experience at Loco Motion has been life-changing to say the least; I am practically always counting down the hours until the next class. I've played sports competitively for my entire life and have found success in each of them, but one or more things were missing that I couldn't quite put my finger on. That all changed 2 months ago when I began practicing Movement at Loco Motion.From day 1, I was met with a supportive community that immediately took genuine care in my development, not only as an athlete but as a person. Just as every human is unique, so too is their corresponding program to address their specific goals as well as strengths and weaknesses. Kevin and the team execute consistently and with encouragement. Every day is new and exciting, building upon what we worked on previously while incorporating fresh stimuli to keep training fun yet challenging. That balance is extremely important for sustaining the progress that we make over the long run.To grow alongside a tribe of people with no particular label has been inspiring. People from all different necks of the woods and experience levels come out and Move together. The process and ensuing results are creative expressions that must be experienced firsthand, a true testament to human capability that the world is just beginning to understand.Truth is what we find in our Movement when we explore the patterns in depth. That translates to everything we do in our lives: posture begins to improve, nagging aches begin to fade away, and new vitality courses through your veins. I encourage anyone considering a new practice, cross-training for an existing practice, or looking for a place to play and have fun while exercising to give Loco Motion a try!

I love this gym. It’s just different — different thinkers, different ways of moving. Training with Kevin and the team is always tough, intentional, and honestly what I’ve been looking for. The focus on hanging and upper back strength is a big shift from how I used to train, and it’s been so rewarding. I wasn’t feeling mentally challenged with the typical gym formula or movement styles, but this place keeps me engaged. The community and vibe are awesome. Highly recommend

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Matt and Kevin at Loco Motion ! They are understanding, caring and understand your goals. I have a medical condition and they have educated themselves to be able to help me achieve my goals . If you are looking for personal training that’s real - this is the place !

At 63, my goal was to improve overall fitness while increasing flexibility, mobility, and strength. In 6 months, thanks to Locomotions' individualized programming and unique techniques, I’ve made great progress in all areas.The warm-up drills are fun and different and focus on balance and flexibility in ways that are effective and engaging. The workouts add in strength training and are also quite innovative which has helped keep me motivated in ways that other gyms and programs I’ve tried over the years never did. Another reason I love Locomotion is the people. Kevin and his staff are all friendly, knowledgeable and genuinely care about helping people meet (exceed) their expectations. I’ve worked with Kevin, Matt and GiGi and they’re all great!I’ve had knee and shoulder injuries that required careful attention and previous PT, but Kevin seamlessly tailored my strength training to accommodate them. The result? Both have improved beyond what physical therapy ever achieved! Kind of an amazing and unexpected result to be honest.One of the biggest wins for me has been my bone health. After being diagnosed with osteopenia a few years ago, I just had a new scan that showed bone growth! If this progress continues, I could be outside the osteopenia range by my next scan. That alone is enough to keep me coming back to Locomotion.If you’re looking for a place to workout that delivers real results in a supportive (but challenging) and inspiring environment, do yourself a favor and give Locomotion New York a try!

I've been attending since August 2024. I have been a practitioner of yoga for 30 years, and I must say I've never come across any other discipline that has resolved the pain in my body. Movement is the focus, and the drills are so dynamic and always changing. I highly recommend coming and seeing for yourself !

2025-04-05T15:53:23.347Z

Kevin is incredibly knowledgeable and patient. Great for beginners or anyone who wants to further their practice. Highly recommend !

I've been doing a weekly group movement class and one-to-one training with Kevin at Loco Motion NY for the past few months and loving it! It's so different than any other workout/program I have done. I am using (and learning about) my body in such unique ways, building foundational strength, flexibility and mobility. The work challenges both my mind and body, and is taught at a manageble pace via sequential movements. Loco Motion NY is a safe space/community to explore and grow, and I really enjoy and appreciate Kevin's teaching methods. He incorporates an excellent mix of challenging movements that push students' physical edges and mental barriers, while also exhibiting the utmost in patience, humility and support.

I've been training here for two years, and it's truly changed my life. After 15+ years of sedentary remote work and painful arthritis, I never imagined I'd be squatting, hanging from bars, or crawling across the room! The gym uses a unique movement-focused approach (no intimidating machines!), emphasizing calisthenics, variety, and fun. I'm stronger, pain-free, and excited to ski again. It's so welcoming—my kids even train alongside me, and my sister loved it too. Plus, I've found wonderful friends who hike and socialize together outside the gym. Highly recommend for any age or fitness level!

I was curious when my Capoeira buddy told me about Locomotion since I was heavily invested in another system I gave it a try and was completely relieved to discover that there is someone that is dedicated to total body movement in a non rigid system. Kevin and his crew continually create a truly personalized regime to meet my goals and requirements, always asking for feedback and updates on how they are meeting my needs. Best of all, they are in sync with my needs, limitations and expectations; they even stay in touch when I'm traveling with videos and suggestions of what simple things I can do to maintain my progress. I'm sold. Zangao

I’ve been working with Locomotion since July 2024, and it has been a game-changer for me. While I’ve been strength training for the past three years, adding Locomotion to my routine has dramatically improved my overall strength and balance. The work I do here has not only enhanced my weight training but has also sharpened my coordination and mental clarity.Owned and led by Kevin Neglia, Locomotion offers a unique and comprehensive approach to movement and balance. Kevin is a knowledgeable, strong, and patient teacher who creates an environment where challenge meets camaraderie. The classes are engaging, fun, and always leave me feeling accomplished.As someone in my sixties with a two-year-old grandson, I love feeling strong and confident—whether I’m lifting him, playing on the ground, or keeping up at the playground. Thanks to Locomotion, I never feel like there’s something I can’t do!

After practicing yoga for 25 years and working as a movement instructor/somatic practitioner for the last 10, I can confidently say I've never experienced anything quite like this studio. These small, intimate classes are unlocking something deep inside me, a connection that goes way beyond just moving my body.... because the truth is, when you move differently, you think differently. And that's where the transformation begins.The real heart is in the community. Every single person, from instructors to fellow practitioners, creates this warm, nurturing space where you can truly be yourself. What truly sets this place apart are the instructors, they're not just passionate about movement, they're deeply committed to helping you meet your goals and supporting your true well-being. You can feel their genuine care and dedication in every moment of class. The small class sizes mean you get personalized attention that helps refine details that would often get missed. They've helped me work through fears and build confidence in my movement in ways I never expected.What keeps me coming back is how these practices are transforming my understanding of movement. This isn't just about physical exercise, it's about creating change from the inside out. When you shift how you move, you literally reshape how you think and interact with the world. Coming from years of structured yoga flows and poses, I've learned that the magic isn't in the poses themselves -it's in the transitions, the subtle moments in between. That's where the real intelligence of the movement (+ body) lives.I'm experiencing my body in ways that feel raw, honest and full of heart and feeling more confident in myself in not just classes, but beyond the studio walls too.... I'm genuinely grateful I found this space and can't wait to continue growing.Absolutely five-star experience🌀

I have been going to locomotion for almost 3 months now and me and my body are loving it! I’m moving my body and mind in different ways than I am used to, and I feel much more mobile and strong since doing so. The locomotion crew does a great job providing guidance while making sure the classes are fun, engaging and full of new ways to think and move! If you’re on the fence about trying something new/switching up your exercise regimen, definitely give locomotion a shot - you won’t regret it!

2024-08-05T13:18:17.890Z

I highly recommend Kevin and Locomotion. If you are looking for a lifestyle of free movement and free thinking, try this unique and special place! Flexibility, strength, focus, muscle awareness, self awareness, and a great group of people is what you will find at Locomotion!

2024-08-02T06:04:15.118Z

We need more people like Kevin! Passionate, dedicated humble and extremely intelligent person! Joining Loco Motion has been a life changing experience! 90% of muscle and joint complaints have slowly faded just after 12 sessions, definitely different than typical gym routine why loco motion is worth every penny! Affordable and class schedules are convenient. Private sessions are the way to go but if you enjoy group sessions that’s a whole different experience in itself. So glad I found this place right here in the heart of Dix Hills. Thanks Kevin & team for making me feel right at home. 💕

Amazing teaching staff, really welcoming community and students, great classes to show you where your strengths and weaknesses are. Forces you to think about movement differently. Has been really fun for me and every time I leave class I’m always feeling really happy even if there were things in class that were difficult and I feel like I struggled with. 10/10 would recommend to everyone I know.

2024-06-14T23:56:01.000Z

I just started taking classes here and only wish I started going sooner. All the teachers are incredible and very talented. The students who attend have been extremely welcoming and helpful to me as a beginner. These classes really do show you where your weak spots are and forces you to use your thinking skills as well. I’m very much looking forward to see the progress I make overtime here and only can hope to be as skilled as the various talented and strong students who attend class. 10/10 would recommend this place to everyone.

2024-05-16T13:35:28.379Z

I'm just half-way through the on-boarding process and I'm already feeling the benefits of the strength and mobility that comes with natural movement. If this is the type of physique you're looking for then this is place I most highly recommend!

I decided to try Loco Motion as I recently had a baby, wanted to have more energy, feel healthier and fitter. And - I felt like I needed an outside motivator to keep me committed to a lifestyle change. I didn't know what to expect from Loco Motion as it doesn't seem like a traditional gym which was refreshing but also made me (just) slightly hesitant.From the first get to know you session I felt very comfortable with Kevin and at Loco Motion. I felt comfortable giving up full control to the trainers (I've worked with Kevin and Matt) to guide me on what's best for me and my body, as they are clearly very knowledgeable. Sometimes I feel bad that I don't ask more questions regarding why they do something, just so I can learn a little, bc it's quite clear that there's a strong foundation in theory and practice. I also like that they incorporate games into some of the training sessions to keep the energy light while still challenging you physically.In the couple of months I've been going I have noticed a marked difference in my energy levels, strength and how clothes fit. This is in large part due to training at Loco Motion which has had a ripple effect on how I approach daily activities to ensure I continue to move.I can't say enough good things about Loco Motion and am happy I made the decision to begin training with them.
