this gym isn't that bad. I only chose this place because I hate packed gyms. I had a 24 pass before…read moreand it's ALWAYS packed. I'd rather not wait in line to use a machine. It's very small but has enough equipment that people aren't just sitting and waiting for people to be done. They have different promotions every month for each tier of their membership but I just did the lowest one cus it's $17 and I live very close by. I haven't used the gym to its full potential cus I'll only do stair master or a machine or two. I just cancelled my membership today bc I haven't been going and I rollerblade so that has been my work out. They charged me $17 to cancel my membership It was a good run, maybe I'll rejoin later. Also the ownership changed and the app doesn't work anymore which is kind of wack.

**Extremely deceptive billing and cancellation practices -- stay away from Blink Gardena**…read more I strongly recommend staying away from Blink Gardena. My experience with their cancellation process and billing has been absolutely unacceptable. Here is exactly what happened: **February 27:** After I moved away, I called Blink Gardena and asked to cancel my membership. They refused to cancel it and told me that I was required to continue paying until I had completed the full one-year commitment. I was unhappy with that, but I accepted it and continued paying as they required. **August 3:** After fulfilling that obligation, I called Blink Gardena again and clearly asked them to cancel my membership. A male employee at the front desk told me, **"Okay."** I had every reason to believe my membership had been canceled. **August 4:** I checked my account and discovered that immediately after my cancellation call on August 3, Blink had charged me **another annual fee for a second year.** So I called them again and asked a very simple question: **I called yesterday and you told me my membership was canceled. Why did you charge me another annual fee immediately afterward?** What happened next was unbelievable. The **same male employee who had told me "Okay" the day before** then demanded that **I provide proof that I had asked to cancel my membership.** Seriously? I was speaking to the same person who had personally taken my cancellation request less than 24 hours earlier, and now he wanted *me* to prove that the conversation had happened. How is a customer supposed to provide "proof" of a verbal cancellation request made by phone to your own employee? More importantly, why should the burden be on the customer when Blink should have its own account records, employee notes, call records, and billing history? The sequence of events is very simple: I asked to cancel after moving on February 27. They refused and required me to keep paying for the full year. I complied. On August 3, I called again and was explicitly told "Okay" when I asked to cancel. Immediately afterward, they charged me another annual fee. When I discovered it the next day and complained, the very employee who had accepted my cancellation demanded that I prove I had canceled. This goes far beyond poor customer service. In my experience, these billing and cancellation practices are **extremely deceptive and predatory**. Making it difficult for customers to leave is bad enough; charging another annual fee immediately after a cancellation request and then pretending the customer must prove that the cancellation request happened is outrageous. If you are considering joining Blink Gardena, **document EVERYTHING.** Do not rely on a phone conversation. Get cancellation confirmation in writing, save every email and screenshot, record the date and time of every call, and closely monitor your credit card or bank account afterward. I would absolutely never recommend this gym.

We couldn't be happier with our experience at the Gardena YMCA Preschool! Enrolling our 2-year-old…read moredaughter here has been a great decision. ​A huge part of her positive experience is thanks to her incredible teacher, Ms. Ebony. She is remarkably attentive, nurturing, and deeply supportive of my daughter's personal milestones. Under her guidance, we've seen incredible growth in our daughter--especially when it comes to building independence, learning how to cooperatively play and share with her peers, and building the focus needed during circle time. ​It has been so rewarding to watch our little one grow in confidence every single day she attends school. She has blossomed socially and emotionally, which means the world to us. We are so grateful to Ms. Ebony and the team for providing such a warm, enriching environment for our family!

I've been coming to this YMCA for over 20 years. I've watched it grow from a small faculty with…read morevery little to offer to the thriving business that it had now become. This YMCA actually has quite a bit to offer. It offers a wide variety of classes, as well as a state of the art gym with a plethora of workout machines. A very nice weight room, basketball courts, racquetball, pool, steam room and sauna. This is also a wide selection of classes that can be taken. Classes start as early as 8am and end around 7 or 8 pm. The staff is very friendly (some more than others) and knowledgable about the facility. Now for the cons; parking, parking, parking. The lot is rather small so needless to say that in the evenings parking is dang near impossible. You can usually find some parking die the street I the residential neighborhood. Other than that, this is a great place to workout and meet some very nice people. Also, the membership is based on a sliding fee. So ask questions and bring in a pay stub when you go to sign up.

This morning I had an unacceptable experience at the Weingart YMCA…read more I picked up my special needs client so he could attend his scheduled swimming aerobics class. As we entered, the front desk staff was immediately rude. While I was checking my client in, I was told in front of others that I was not allowed in the facility because they claimed I had previously been teaching exercises in the weight room. My client is special needs and a visual learner. Any guidance I provide is for support and understanding, not personal training. I calmly explained this, but the staff was dismissive and told me to leave the facility until my client finished his class. My client is currently in his swimming aerobics class, completely unaware of what happened, while I was asked to leave without professionalism or discretion. I have supported multiple clients at YMCA locations and have never experienced this kind of treatment before. This interaction was disrespectful, embarrassing, and showed a complete lack of sensitivity toward individuals with special needs. This will be the last time I come to this facility or recommend it.

Classes here were so fun, this place is great addition to the Compton area. Gaby's class was a…read moregreat workout every time- though I do not believe she leads Zumba classes anymore. What's great about this place is the people who regularly attend, the community they've built and their energy was contagious EVERY time. Definitely a big part of why I kept coming back. There is a bit of diet culture that's prevalent since they sell and promote Herbalife on site but it's nothing that they push on you, it's just there. I was moving out of town, but I stopped attending classes a month before my move because at the time I believe there were changes going on with instructors. I think they were looking to hire new instructors and a different candidate would come every class for a trial. I'm not particularly coordinated, so I was not a fan of the inconsistency between dance/teaching styles. I'm not sure who the new instructors are, but it is definitely worth your time to come have class and check it out. Your first class is free- nothing to lose! After that it's $4 per class or you can sign up for a monthly membership for $45. I would go often enough that the monthly pass was great for me. Feedback: I think they need to improve their communication. Start an email notification system or update their facebook page more often. Rarely, but sometimes, a class would be cancelled or moved but there was no way of knowing unless you attended class the day before. This doesn't really work for someone who might go a few times a week.

I've been attending Fitness 19 for over a year now and have noticed a huge change, both physically…read moreand mentally! Prior to beginning this program, I had never weightlifted and did not know where to even begin to learn. Working with a personal trainers seemed too intimidating, and I did not know enough to begin learning on my own and risk an injury. This program is the happy medium!   Twice a week, you receive incredibly detailed videos for each movement/exercise where your coach talks through the proper form, suggests a starting weight, explains what the movement should feel like, what muscle groups you should activate, tips on how to protect your back & neck, etc. He equips you with all the information you need to feel comfortable enough to complete the exercise. If that weren't enough, a floor coach is always available throughout your workout to help guide you in any aspect you need. A new wristband system allows you to further personalize the program, by indicating how much interaction you would like from your coach on that given day/exercise. Want a really involved floor coach that will give you all the expert tips? Wear green! Do you prefer to be on your own and reach out to the coach yourself with questions? Wear red! The beauty of this program is in the flexibility it provides, from how involved you would like your trainer to be, to setting your own schedule.   I highly recommend this program and do not have plans of quitting anytime soon. Your future buns of steel will thank you for signing up today!

The equipment is well kept. The employees are great. The hours are good. I wish it was open later,…read more but in that neighborhood, 11 pm is fine for Monday through Thursday. The massage machine is awesome. The problem is the members. They NEVER put the weights back. They play on their phone when they are working on the machines, hogging them up. Go there at between 6 pm and 8:30 pm. You will have to hunt for the dumbells or weights you want. Go into stretching area, and there are discarded weights and mats all over. I find it inconsiderate and flat out RUDE! The staff are instructed to do nothing about it. In their defense, who wants to pick up weights behind grown ass adults all shift. Maybe they could put up signs or something, but it's ridiculous. Go before or after prime time, or the time you had budgeted to work out will be spent looking for equipment. The bottom line is THE MEMBERS SUCK!

Instructors are very experienced with boxing and kick boxing which is the classes I signed up for. They also don't mind helping out if your confused and even with feedback. The members in the class are all at different levels of skill which is great because you get to learn from them. As someone with 8 years of experience with Taekwondo. Boxing was very new and different for me but I had alot of fun there and lastly the workout is great!! Maybe once things calm down with what I have going on I'll return to train here.
