I couldn't help myself…read more So my nephew goes to summer camp here and loves but I recently brought him here for basketball practice and had a wonderful experience. I was able to get a nice workout in while he practiced and I loved that it wasn't super crowded. Yeah, it was a Friday so maybe that had something to do with it. The gym, or wellness center as it's known here, has plenty of cardio and weightlifting equipment, and there's several classrooms for group fitness classes and a room for cycling. It's safe to say that being s memeber here has its benefits. The staff are awesome and are readily available to answer any questions you may have. Everyone I've come in contact with has been friendly and the people that work here seem to really enjoy what they do. There's also a play center for kids to go to while you workout so there's no excuse to get moving! The space is clean and big enough to where you don't feel suffocated by others in the gym. They also have a fancy pool if you feel like practicing your butterfly. Need a place to workout???? Come to the YMCA!

Albeit a bit cramped still gets the job done. If you're trying to play basketball you're golden except the schedule is never correct. Expect to drive up there only to be told you can't go in to hoop. And they will push you out if you're already in the gym. Not a professional way to handle things here.

I'm so glad I signed my girls up for swimming lessons with this company. They have several…read morelocations to choose from and times of day. Locations in Byron, Kathleen, Perry, Fort Valley and Bonaire. My girls did level 1 with Ms. Jenna and even with the classes being 30 mins long (which initially I thought wasn't long enough) it's just the right amount of time and the progress they make is amazing. Description of the classes is on the website. Classes are Monday thru Thursday and Friday is used as a make up day in case of bad weather and cancelation. Ms. Jenna and the instructors were amazing. So patient with the kids and super encouraging. They knew the kids by name. My girls were skipped to level 3. They were too excited and would be so proud of the progress they made each day. We took level 3 with Alyssa and her team were the same as Ms. Jenna's. The instructors keep the kids safe. There was like 4 instructors and one sits up top to monitor the kids. I never feared for my kids safety because they maintained structure throughout the lessons. At the end of each class the kids would do fun activities. For level 1 they would dive for rings. In level 3 they would do crazy jumps into the pool. I would highly recommend this for kids. If they ever create an adult only class I'd sign up. My kids are bummed that they have to wait until next summer for level 4 - they're looking forward to learning strokes. The classes are held in the pool of individual's homes. You get the address right before classes will begin. So seating may vary. I would recommend taking a lawn chair just in case. For swimwear - no goggles or nose plugs. My girls just wore their swimsuit and swim cap to help keep their hair dry.

This location has a bunch of young and unprofessional staff working inside. I had a private swim…read morelesson scheduled two weeks in advance, and I drove 45 minutes to get to this location. Upon arrival, I was asked whether the private instructor had reached out to confirm the lesson. I explained that they had not and even asked whether that was part of their normal protocol. I was told that it was not. Based on that information, I proceeded to get my child changed and prepared for the lesson. After my child was changed and ready, I was then informed that the instructor had to leave due to an emergency. While I completely understand that emergencies happen, the issue was the lack of communication. I should have been notified before driving 45 minutes to the facility and getting my child ready for a lesson that was ultimately canceled. What was even more disappointing was that there was no follow-up communication or effort to address the inconvenience after the canceled lesson. The entire experience was extremely unprofessional and a complete waste of my time. I would not recommend this location. If you value your time and expect basic communication and professionalism, I would strongly suggest going elsewhere.

We've been coming for about a month to the British Swim School for my two girls. They seem to have…read morea really good system down for sharing the pool space with LA fitness, and the instructors are all really good with children. They use catchy phrases and songs, all delivered soothing voices, to teach techniques and remind the children of water safety. I love that the teachers are not deterred by tears, and encourage the children to work through their fears. Because this is an LA Fitness, there is a large parking lot outside, and plenty of space available in the locker rooms for changing clothes or showering before and after the pool. However, the swim school also keeps two little pop-up tents inside the pool area where students can change clothes. The temperature is warmer inside the pool area so my girls often prefer to change clothes after class in the tents.

Onelife Fitness in Ashley Park is the "big brother" gym to the nearby Onelife Express. Main…read moredifference is size, which comes with equipment selection, kids area and of course the pool! When I visit my family, it is normally for a week per trip, so I pop in here and purchase a week pass. Sadly they have recently gone up 60% in price from $25 to $40 for the week. Seems like a huge jump, so if I am unable to commit to every day of my visit, I no longer purchase. The gym is a great size with a great layout and mix of equipment and clearly defined areas. It is two levels with the upstairs being fully reserved for cardio equipment. There is a small space on the first floor that has cardio if stairs are on issue. Machines are in the front part of the main space, while free weights line the back mirrored walls with all varieties of benches, racks, medicine balls, ropes and circuit style accessories. Majority of the equipment and free weights are in rough shape, no pun intended. For the cable machine, most of the accessories are missing all or a portion of the grips, numbers on the weights have rubbed off and seating is worn. This continues through the gym and is noticeable on several machines and free weights/benches. Outside of weights, they do offer tanning, water massage beds, a pool, classes and a juice/protein shake bar. Service is okay. Front desk staff are never really engaging or welcoming, which is odd for a new person walking in to pay for one week what others pay for a month. Overall, I may be spoiled by my home gym, but Onelife Fitness leaves a bit to be desired.

I wanted to provide a thorough review of my experience, so I wanted to wait until I made a number…read moreof visits. I've worked out here pretty consistently over the last month and a half, and I've been really satisfied. There's plenty of equipment, and it's easy to maneuver through the facility even when it's busy. Busiest times from my experience: Weekdays after 5pm, and Saturdays before 1pm. Least busy times: Weekdays between 10am and 5pm. I like using the Cinema room for cardio because it's not crowded most of the time. It gets a little chilly in there so wearing a hoodie and waist trainer helps with staying warm and working up a good sweat. Downside: They don't offer a lot of classes and the times could be set up better to accommodate more members.
