I drive in from Ann Arbor and I was pleased how easy it is. Studio is very close to 94. Lots of parking!

I'm updating my review. I was a member again a few months this summer, to work out at the gym with…read moremy son, who had the free summer membership they were offering for 19 year-olds. I shared my previous concerns from the last review and they were very understanding. The facility was always clean, plenty of free weights available, and the other customers were great. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is due to some safety concerns about being approached by people in the parking lot for money at night. There is private security, but oddly I often found their cars parked facing away from the parking lot, so not with a good view of the members leaving the building. This is not the fault of Planet Fitness, and they did call security when leaving. I left for different reasons (Son's free membership expired and he had discount through community college health and fitness center). The price is good for the service, and I would still be there if I was on my own!

Unfortunately incredibly unhappy with the antiquated way that Planet Fitness Ypsi is asking me to…read morecancel a membership. I am no longer in the area (since August) and called to ask to cancel.

Even though I moved away from Michigan almost three years ago, I always try to make it a point to…read moresqueeze in a workout with Josh or Tim (owners & trainers at Infinite Iron) whenever I'm back. I am NOT a fitness freak and often make excuses to be active, so it's saying a lot that I go out of my way to do this. Josh and Tim are amazing! My husband and I trained with them a few years ago after being totally sedentary. I had gained a ton of weight in med school and felt like a blob. Besides losing over thirty pounds in a year working out three to four times a week, I also gained muscle (but not in the unfeminine way that I was thinking I would), strength, and confidence. All I had to do was show up and do what they told me, which was a mix of strength training, flexibility, and cardio. Seriously, I went from not being able to do a 'real' push-up to being able to do over a hundred in a minute after about a year, which was super amazing for me. I like that both Josh and Tim will push you to your limits and give you a really good workout but won't yell at you, judge you, or make you feel bad about yourself. (I'm sure they can yell at you if you want them to, but that doesn't work for me). Their workouts are efficient, always changing, and challenging. They also teach you great form while doing different exercises (with or without equipment), and other trainers I've worked with after them have commented on my form and being taught well. Finally, they can also give you nutrition advice if you want it. Besides all this fitness stuff, they are also just great guys to hang out with and talk to, and you can tell that they are really passionate about their jobs. Do yourself a favor if you want to lose weight or get in shape and check them out for a few months. They have a fitness assessment when you start that can help you track your progress. You'll be amazed at what can happen over a few weeks!

In the service industry, success requires both talent and bedside manner, and in personal training…read morethe latter matters tremendously. Who wants to be physically vulnerable to someone you don't care for or trust? I've been training with Josh at Infinite Iron for a few years now, and a large part of that has to do with how he works with me: he's great! I'm not someone who responds particularly well to yelling--I want to do whatever it is set in front of me, but occasionally I need help with keeping count and remembering what's next. Josh is highly observant and picked up on that pretty quickly, with no yelling along the way. He's pretty easygoing to start. I've also had the chance to observe him work with many different kinds of people, old and young, and he modifies his style as necessary. If yelling's your thing, he can accommodate. He's also well-versed in nutrition and continuously modifies what we do. When I first started, I had different goals than I do now, and he takes that into account. We've done a variety of exercises using all sorts of things, and just when I think I've experienced it all, he comes up with something new. He's also motivating when it comes to accountability. Initially, I only planned to stay a few months to learn things and then continue on my own, but I realized training with him several mornings a week was a large part of the success of the rest of my day. Check him out! You'll be glad you did.

Perna's Pet Care solved my stress in going out of town…read more I have four cats, one of which needs a little extra attention and medication. Thanks to Perna's Pet Care, someone comes twice a day to check in, give medicine/food, clean the boxes, and even play with the cats. They will even do household chores like take out/in the trash, get your mail, water plants, etc. However, the best part of the service is that you receive photos and a written overview of every visit. A big thank you to Mason & Svetlana who have taken care of our cats on several occasions! We appreciate you!

Our cat is very low maintenance, but our senior dogs are each on specific medications and have occasional health issues which have always been accommodated. We have booked overnight stays when we are on vacation and dinner stopovers when we can't get home on time. Without fail, our sitter shows up on time, takes care of the critters with love and diligence, and sends us a written + photo update. Their professionalism gives us peace of mind when we're not able to be at home for the critters- after a bad experience elsewhere, that's not something we take for granted.

I was reared by European parents, one artist and one physicist, who don't believe in valorizing…read morerich bastards who flaunt their material goods. (not that all rich people are bastards, mind you) We played tennis but never competed. We played on old, cracked, outdoor, forgotten courts because then we didn't have to deal with anyone else. I played in skate shoes, flannel shirts, and jeans (it was the '90s!). We love to swim but we take more time to complete a lap than an asthmatic turtle. So when I hear 'tennis club' I cringe. I automatically think of upturned noses. But after four times of hitting balls around at Chippewa, my apprehension is waning. This ain't no snobby country club. I'm a plus one on my partner's family's membership so I can't tell you anything about cost. I can tell you, however, that there are: - six well-maintained really-high-ceiling indoor courts with water stations and benches. - draw-nets that separate the courts. - large wheeled carts filled with tennis balls. - a lot of people taking lessons which means you get a range from Eastern students with blond ponytails and 80 mph serves to 50 year-old men with sweat bands on their heads who can hardly hit a ball. - changing rooms with great little nooks that give you a little privacy and comfort - six spacious showers in private stalls with nice hot water - a small sauna - a full gym downstairs with aerobic machines, weights, etc. Always is empty when I'm there Still haven't scoped the pool but hope to do so soon. If you want a laid-back atmosphere with all-season courts but where you don't have to have a diamond ring or a beamer to join, this just might be your place.

It makes for some interesting activity in the room with 4 walls. I was actually looking forward to it as I had not played in a while. The place sits hidden back off of Golfside Rd. It has a distinctive sign that you can't miss. Half way down the long driveway I was wondering if I was in the right spot. I then saw a building so to the left I turned. Hmmmm.....Seems deserted and vacant. It took me 15 mins to call the club to ask if I was at the correct location. Nope! You turned left instead of right and you are at the Swimming pool and outdoor Tennis courts. Okie Dokie. The place is actually at the furthest end of the driveway. Once arriving at the actual building I noticed I was at the correct location because I actually saw people. After climbing the steps and entering the building there are Indoor Tennis courts, Soccer and Racquetball rooms. The charge is $6 to enter. There is a locker room for men and women. I would recommend bringing a lock. The RB rooms are located on the lower level along with Exercise equipment. It is not a new facility but maintained, We played 6 games and I felt the burn the following day. Overall, it was a fun experience once you actually find the correct building.
