The quality of the instruction went down. A lot of classes were then taught by newer teachers. As someone who has taught fitness classes myself, I know the difference. I paid for reformer work, and one of them did a whole mat class. Mat work that I can do at home for free! Also it's awkward between two reformers. Once I was so frustrated that I left 5 minutes into class. After that all the sudden the owner refunded my class pack and I guess kicked me out. I was sad and confused and hurt. Sure any business can refuse anyone, but it seemed harsh and unkind. I have felt bad about this for years - like I did something wrong. BUT... But all I did is have an opinion the owner didn't want to admit or hear. She "watered down" her class quality and wasn't happy I noticed or had any negative feedback.

After my latest surgery in San Francisco, I came to Eureka to recover and wanted to continue pilates for the two months while in Humboldt. Susie Kidd, the owner and instructor, was not afraid to take me on and tailor instruction for my needs. I credit her training for helping me recover as well as I have and keep my entire body moving while on crutches. I am so impressed by Susie's knowledge of the human anatomy and her professionalism during our sessions. The studio space is also fabulous and a great feel.

Out of pure desperation, I decided to try pilates at a studio in Manhattan where I was working at the time. Within a few weeks, I was feeling much better and enjoying all sort of additional benefits. Much like Jennifer N., I felt like pilates changed my life. Once I was back home in Humboldt, I sought out a local studio and found Sacred Bodies Pilates, which I found to be every bit as good as the one I attended in Manhattan -- and at nearly half the price. Owner and instructor Susie Kidd is a delight. Always professional and caring, she is knowledgeable and takes her job very seriously. If you've never tried pilates before, but are curious, Sacred Bodies Pilates is a great place to start. And if you're a veteran, Susie can definitely deliver a serious workout.

So I'm a mother of two, a teen daughter and a younger son, and I'm trying to get back in shape and…read morehopefully get them started on a healthier path too. Figured I'd check out some of the local gyms and see what's out there. I checked out health sport a couple weeks ago and wanted to share my experience. I live outside Arcata so first stop was the Arcata club. Idk, maybe it's fine for some people, but it kinda just felt like it was full of young meathead gym bros hovering around the weights and grunting. Front desk staff were friendly enough but the vibe inside just wasn't it for me. Weight room was honestly a little intimidating, especially when you're trying to bring your kids along. Then I checked out the McKinleyville club. It was super quiet and seemed clean, but also kinda boring? Not a lot going on there, like if you don't love cardio machines and weights. Not sure what else there really is to do. Might be fine if you just want a basic place to work out, idk yet. Then Eureka, locker rooms definitely needed some love. Pool had a bunch of stains at the bottom which just made it feel kinda gross. Crowd there seemed a little older though, which I actually liked better than the Arcata vibe. But good luck finding a staff member when you need one. Felt like nobody was around. Got roped into a "tour" by one of their sales guys as we wondered around. Dude's hair was all messed up like he just got up from a nap and looked like a gym bro in a polo. And worse, it looked like he was checking out my daughter whenever he thought I wasn't looking. Made me very uncomfortable and SO creepy. I finished the tour quickly and we left. I don't remember his name but if you go there, you'll know who I'm talking about. Will not be going back there. Heard they have a site down in Fortuna that's supposed to be nice but that's way too far for me, so not even gonna bother. Honestly not sure what my option is at this point. Arcata feels too much like a frat house, Eureka just feels sketchy, and McKinleyville, maybe?? I was told I could set up a trial so maybe I'll do that and see how it feels when I actually try to work out there. Guess we'll see. Anyway, that's my rant. Just wish it wasn't so hard to find a decent place to get a workout in without feeling weird or uncomfortable.

Love working out with the trainer Dave, he's great and really supportive and knowledgeable while motivating you to the fullest extent possible.

I can't say enough how much anger this gym causes me. The hours online say 24/7 which is a lie…read morebecause only part of the gym is accessible. A good portion of the gym closes including the locker room at 1pm on Friday which is crazy on a weekday. How greedy does the owners have to be to not be able to pay staff to stay later than 1pm? The last guy I interacted with that does work there when they are open is not too chill either. The whole energy at this location vs the others is bad, they have a big like 5 foot tall angry sign at the door when you enter that warns you they will cancel your membership if you open the door for someone and they happen to not be a member. So if a non member try's to enter the building behind you they expect you to act as security. What in the world?!? Hey healthsport I'm not your security I'm a member that pays a lot of money for your sub par shitty gym that closes all the locations too early. I bet the man that works there put that giant angry sign up probably without even consulting the owners or maybe the owners are really that bad and clueless. Pretty much all of their gyms always have something wrong and people are always complaining. The incompetence of the management staff has to be studied. For instance they keep the sauna temperature too low at the other locations which causes members to mess with the sauna which eventually breaks it. Usually takes a few weeks for them to fix it and the cycle goes on forever with people breaking it trying to turn it on higher. Management can't seem to figure that one out. There is no oversight over how good the staff is cleaning too so the bathrooms are filled with mold and it's pretty gross. Lots of dust on the gyms equipment. It's like the gym expects the members to do everything. Please do better healthsport.
