Longfellow Tennis & Health Club - Main entrance

I've been a Longfellow member for 14 years now. Previously, I was a member at the Four Seasons in…read moreDallas, which as you can imagine, had 5 star amenities. I'm an avid tennis player, so when we moved, I was looking for a place to play for fun, but also a place who had men's teams and group drills classes. I briefly ran into Longfellow while looking at houses in Sudbury, saw their facilities were numerous and briefly met with the staff to talk about their programs. Sudbury has a lot to offer, but I won't discount the role that Longfellow played in our decision to settle in Sudbury. While Longfellow's facilities weren't quite as new and flashy as the posh Four Seasons, their staff was much more family-like and took me in. It's now my home away from home, and I'm there probably 4 days a week. Their adult tennis programs and leagues are very good. I've done many adult drills classes over the years and play on many men's and mixed doubles USTA and CMITA teams. In addition, I've taken advantage of group exercise classes, personal training, physical therapy, and swimming and tennis lessons for my kids. I also weight train several times a week. Longfellow is very family oriented, and not pretentious. It's also not intimidating to go there and work out...unlike many other gyms where you're surrounded by 20 something models on every treadmill, or guys grunting away and slamming down weights (although during Winter Break you get a little of that with the kids home from college). Yes, the facilities are older and it's a large place with many working parts. However, there's plenty of weights and machines to do what you need to do, and if you can't figure out how to use them, there's always friendly staff available. For the types of facilities and amenities people are complaining about Longfellow lacking, that's what you get if you're paying $500/month (which is what I paid 14 years ago at the Four Seasons). Longfellow is nowhere near that. Complaints about guest fees for swimming lessons? The lesson fee you pay goes to the instructor, but the guest fee goes to the club for maintaining the facilities your child is using. So are members supposed to foot the bill so your kid can take lessons? Think of it this way, as a members get a $10 discount per lesson...does that sound better? That's a very common practice at other gyms. As for court time? Well, yeah, it's tough to find something during the day, if you haven't been booked far in advance. But what is the club supposed to do? Keep one empty court available every day, all day, just in case someone calls? That's a poor business model. Yes, there are a lot of kids' practices and lessons from 2-7pm. However, the morning and early afternoon have many adult classes and adult leagues, so there are opportunities to play. And for the people complaining about the quality of the facilities, Bosse was the big, flashy, overpriced gym around and looked beautiful, but lacked any spirit. I visited several times with friends, and it seemed more like a place people liked to show off at rather than actually work out or play tennis. Let's not forget that its owner just up and closed with a lot of families' money. Longfellow has owners and staff that care, which is why so many staff are still the same for the past decade. Are you looking for a place to workout and play sports, or are you looking for a place to just lounge around? Because there are plenty of coffee shops around. So if you're looking for a place to workout with a family atmosphere, with plenty of adult and kid programs of many types, tennis, swimming, and a place to actually make friends at, then Longfellow is for you. Oh, and I hate Yelp reviews. Longfellow has had thousands of happy members/families over the years. However, people who are satisfied aren't usually going to type a review...they're too busy enjoying working out and life in general. It's the grumpy few who do, and usually ones who are bored and have an agenda. I only typed this because I'm bored at work and feel that the Yelp's review isn't an accurate representation of Longfellow. If you check Longfellow's Facebook review, you'll see a far more accurate representation. Yelp, in general just sucks for businesses because they do nothing to help businesses, unless you pay to subscribe to them. If you do, they allow you to delete negative reviews and whatnot.

I have been coming to Hometown Sweat since they were in their old location on Huron Drive…read more Honestly, the vibe has changed since reopening in the new space. Not only is the heated room smaller, it smells ripe all the time, the staff are forgetful and sometimes moody, some of the patrons are rude, the continuous waitlists are annoying, and the "feeling of community" is all a farce. I enjoyed the Sculpt classes taught by Sami on Thursday mornings but due to my schedule, I had to resort to the noontime class taught by an instructor who is consistently forgetful. It has become a running joke among her students whether she's going to remember the right side plank or hydrant after completing the left side or vice versa. The biggest issue I take with this studio is this idea of community and their so-called studio rules. They are unwritten (but apparently are stated rules). If you ask an instructor about these unwritten rules, beware... you could be considered aggressive for asking...and have your membership canceled without even a conversation. What are these unwritten rules you might ask? Surprisingly, these unwritten but stated rules that everyone should know or be able to hear in a crowded room with blasting music and loud conversation is about the positioning of students in the studio when it gets crowded. Of course, this might seem obvious that one would stagger with their neighbor if they felt like there was any danger to oneself or the neighbor. But no...these unwritten rules state that the staggering is led by the person on the complete opposite side of the room. For example, if you have placed your mat in the farthest right corner of the room by the mirror, it is your job to follow the lead of a person on the complete opposite side of the room, someone you cannot see, especially given how crowded the studio is which is why there is staggering in the first place. This happened to me. Another class member came up to my mat at the end of class and confronted me because I did not follow the "rules" to give her daughter enough space. She yelled at me in the class and was very aggressive to me, telling me that she was going to have the instructor explain to me these "rules". After I cooled off on my mat, I found the instructor and asked her about these "rules". She informed me that these "rules" were unwritten but stated at the beginning of each class. I cannot remember ever hearing that these "rules"even existed, maybe because she might have forgotten to say them that day, maybe because I couldn't hear her over the music and the conversations that were happening, or maybe something else. But my asking clarification on these rules became an issue and rather than understanding the facts about the situation, the owner (who was not even present) left a voicemail that my membership was cancelled. I sent an email explaining my side and to express my disappointment about her lack of a thorough review of what happened from all parties , and asked her to provide a written explanation of the cancellation without a review. I also asked that "rules" should be written and not just stated. Not only was I the one who was treated aggressively by another member, but the owner's complete dismissal of their own community member without a thorough review negates the whole "community" that she sold us on, and to do it all over voicemail. She has yet to respond to my email, but left another voicemail. Who does that?

Best workout! I love the high energy, sweat and supportive community around me! Dedicated…read moreinstructors. I love going.
