Member Testimonials
Location. Staff are friendly and helpful.
The weight room isn't too crowded when I go (either early morning or in the evening) which is all I really care about. A pool would be nice, but obviously that isn't possible in the space
Special attention to the needs of the families
Inclusivity
Friendly staff, clean facility!
Run by friendly and knowledgeable staff. You offer programs and activities for everyone/all ages. You're also very community focused.
Hours are convenient, my personal trainer Kailey Zárate is very knowledgeable and motivational and the cardio machines are tended to very nicely.
The staff
Excellent facility and excellent staff who are friendly and helpful. I try and get there at least 3-4 times per week and it's always the same no matter who is working. Top notch!
Good
I don’t participate in programs or activities offered for groups. I’m pretty much a loner when it comes to health and fitness. That said, I surely do appreciate the facility’s hours of operation and its cleanliness, the variety and availability of exercise equipment, and the professionalism of the remarkably friendly staff. (One improvement I hope to experience soon is faster delivery of hot water in the men’s shower 😉)
Every time you ask I will tell you it is the group exercises led by Blane. I have tried other instructors but he is fun and our social group supports each other and encourage the exercise program.
Truthfully, with 5 classes a week from Blane, I do not have much more "juice" for other classes and Body Pump would be my next choice since we have done it before.
Great people
