I shopped out the few gyms in the area, and was so excited when I found the Fitness Zone. The selection of equipment is endless, the staff is amazing and extremely helpful and the classes are top notch. It's the total package. It's clean, relaxed and has a welcoming small town feel.

Unfortunately what was once a long time bustling community hub is no longer the same experience in…read more2024. Many members have chosen to leave because of new unfriendly management practices and polices. The departure of loved tennis pros who once offered professional coaching and Manchester Prep School for high level tennis players has closed their doors. They offer limited hours (close at 5pm on Sundays), increased rates and less quality offerings (camps, tennis lessons), reduction of tennis courts from 12 to 5 is likely as a result of the many tennis players who have had enough and left or the contracts they require or perhaps the carnival tickets that are needed after scanning your card to hand to your tennis pro or fitness instructor.

This was a good gym to have in an area that really doesn't have much going on. There were several…read moretimes where the internet and cable were unavailable, along with a few times where the water coolers needed to be replaced. Overall, it was a good experience. My biggest complaint is with the management... I had mentioned only doing month to month since I was unsure of when I would be moving out of the area and that it would most likely come at an unexpected time. I was reassured before signing up that my situation was understandable and that I only would have to give a few days notice to cancel... so I gave about 4-5 days notice over the phone (never had anyone call me back) and I left the key where they told me to. Well, a week and a half later I noticed that my account was still charged for a new month. I called and spoke with them and they completely blew off the fact that they told me I only needed to give them several days notice and told me to refer to the bottom of my contract that said I needed to give 30 days notice IN WRITING in order to successfully cancel my membership. So my warning to anyone looking to join...don't listen to what the management tells you, regardless of how agreeable they may seem.

Nice to have the fitness option in this area. It is like a large hotel gym - but PACKED with…read moreequipment. Basically one of everything, with maybe a few treadmills and ellipticals. If you are interested in floor space to free-train, you will be disappointed. There is only one claustrophobic spot and if someone else is there you are out of luck. Similarly for me when I needed to use a certain type of bike - great that they had it, but out of luck if someone was on it. The place is great when you are by yourself, but feels cramped very quickly with others working out as well - and if they happen to be talking... or choose not to wear deodorant... well you just have to roll with it because it's very tight. I had a similar problem with the management. I tried repeatedly to contact them, spoke to the main woman in person when I saw her and STILL no returned phone call. Turned into an unpleasant problem, and I try to avoid those. Definitely read your contract and know what you are getting into. And don't expect any contact with them. I would recommend trying for one month without an extended contract and then deciding. Shared bathroom in the hall. No showers.

This YMCA is the real deal. It's inspiring to see how much it's grown and how deeply it continues to invest in the well-being of our community. Thank you for creating such a positive, uplifting environment! The new EGYM is an amazing addition -- a smart, adaptive fitness system that automatically adjusts to your height, weight, and strength for a complete full-body workout in just 22 minutes. I tried it last night, got my band, and can't wait to go back this morning! It's a total game-changer and I'm excited to make it part of my regular routine. A huge thank-you to Erina McWilliam-Lopez, Executive Director, the Board of Trustees and Mr. MacLeod for your leadership and vision -- and to every single staff member at the Y for making it such a welcoming and encouraging space. This YMCA has truly made a difference in my life, and I'm so appreciative of all that you do!

The good: --Plenty of cardio machines (and about half have TVs). --A variety of weight machines, free weights, and an area to do other non-weight lifting exercises. (I'm kind of vague here since I only do cardio.) --Friendly staff. (This is important to me. I hate feeling like I'm being judged.) --No children / young teenagers. --Locker room/bathroom has been clean every time I've been there. The neutral: --The juice bar. It's tempting. I always want to get something, but it's not cheap ($5 and up?)... I haven't tried anything yet, and I don't plan to, so I can't comment on the quality of the drinks. --Personal training & TRX suspension training. Considering I'm already paying for a gym membership I can't afford, they're out of my price range. I'm happy that the option is there, though, and I hope to take advantage of them eventually. --Hours are great for early birds, but I'm an insomniac. I love working out at 2 or 3am when I can't sleep. I know that's an unreasonable request, though, so I'm not holding it against them. I DO think that closing at 9pm is a bit early, though -- and they close even earlier on weekends. --Plenty of parking. (Trying to park at the YMCA sucked, so this is pretty wonderful for someone who can't parallel park.) The bad: --Price. It's expensive to join as a month-to-month member ($50, plus a yearly fee [an extra $20?] and some other fee I might've forgotten). It's less expensive ($40/month?) if you sign a year-long contract. It's definitely worth checking out. They have three day passes, if you'd like to work out for a few days without committing... so what's stopping you?

Lots of gym for less $ have TRX included. 3) Only one set of each weight (i.e., one set of 15 lb, one 10, one 25 lb, etc.) so if in use, you are out of luck. 4) Leg press is weird and hard to use.

I've been three times and cannot recommend it highly enough. The instructors are welcoming, encouraging, and their cues are outstanding. It appears there are all levels in the class from folks like me to folks who are obviously very advanced in their skills. And these veterans, unlike accomplished yogi in some studios, are focused on their own practices, and waste no time judging others. I love it here; I actually like going to yoga class.
