Youth lessons I…read moresigned my kids up for a round of youth lessons. You meet once a week for about 8 weeks. The classes are capped so the kids get a lot of one on one attention. The first lesson they reached them safety in rock climbing and each week they build on their skills. Lessons include - instructor, shoe rental, harness and a chalk bag. After the lessons the kids get to climb and show off that they learned to their parents. Highly recommend!

While traveling in Northern OH, we stopped to spend a day at this lovely gem of a climbing gym…read more First off: staff is super friendly, helpful, generous with their time, and offer great customer service. We brought our own climbing equipment, and the check in process was easy. As is standard for first time climbing gym entries, we completed our waivers, purchased day passes, received a tour of the facilities (gorgeous), and completed certification tests for top top and lead. Staff was knowledgeable, supportive, and made it all a breeze while also making me feel like they are importantly attentive to everyone's safety. Gold stars. Environment: As far as size go, they are probably getting right for their rural location, not huge, but big enough to offer a great variety of bouldering, top routes, and lead routes. If I counted right, they have 10 autobelays - 8 of which are on Castle Wall, and two that are on a "kid wall," which doesn't have any set routes, but has a plethora of holds for the littles to confidently work on their moves. Speaking of Castle Wall... I have to say I LOVE the artwork in this place. One of the employees told me that all the gorgeous murals on the wall were done by local artists with glow in the dark paint. Word is that they offer glow in the dark climbing on last Saturday of each month. That's gotta be sweet. Climbing: they rate climbs using the terms Easy, Easy+, Mod-, Mod, Mod+, Hard-, Hard, Hard+. People will have opinions on that; some will like it, some won't. There is a conversion chart posted on one of the front walls, but it's all pretty broad in its generalizations. That said, we stuck to Easy+ through Mod routes today, and I quite enjoyed the setting. Shout out for useful foot chips and fun, creative routes. Other details: the live aquarium in the entryway next to the huge cracker mural are gorgeous. Our kids loved the free arcade game that has all kinds of old school games, including Super Mario Bros, Paperboy, Tetris, etc. The yoga studio on the second floor is gorgeous. Love the floor to ceiling windows that span the room. Must be lovely to do yoga there. The bathrooms are nice and clean! Also: plenty of cubby and lockers are available to stash your things. Looks like you can bring a lock for the lockers if you want to. They have 4-5 round tables in the entry room where people can have snacks. We were there for 6 hours, so we made use of them. Now I'm wishing that I had taken more pics, but we were too busy having fun. Check out the website! The local community is lucky to have this gem! Nice work.

Note - Yelp system issue - All my photos did not attach to this review so please take a look at the Yelp page for the photos. REVIEW: Tremont Athletic Club just opened a second location in the University Circle neighbourhood of Cleveland. They opened this new location in December 2018. I visited for a free high intensity class on 23 February 2019 and I can't wait to go back. Classes all throughout the month of February 2019 are FREE but they do take a debit/credit card on file. They will not charge you unless you cancel before your free plan ends. Unfortunately, I was charged (see below). CLASSES: There is a growing list of classes to choose from. I attended the 10:00am Tabata/HITT class with instructor Michaella A. I haven't exercised in a long time so the class was hard for me but I definitely enjoyed the workout. The class was a mixture of cardio (jumps) and strength training. We used dumbbells and kettlebells of different varying weights based on your level of fitness. The instructor was motivating and led everyone through a great 50 min class. I've posted a photo of the Feb. 2019 class schedule or you can just go to their website. GYM: Huge. The athletic centre is big. When you enter, you'll see a large area open for individual workouts and personal training. There are all sorts of fitness machines here as well for building muscles. Around the corner from the main floor, there are additional cardio machines such as treadmills and ellipticals. SERVICE: Amazing. The young man at the front desk was super nice and explained the process of gym membership, classes, etc. I even called the studio to say I was running 5 mins late and he told me it was fine. It was nice of him to still let me into class because it was my first time here (eventhough no one should be late for class). PARKING: This can be a pain because the gym location is on a busy area (on a University campus) so street parking will most likely be taken. There was no street parking when I arrived. Plus, the gym is located above a apartment complex so residents are most likely parking in the area too. I found a parking garage around the corner but it is expensive ($6 flat during a weekend visit). During the week, rates start at $3 for 20 mins then $9 an hour. Since a fitness class is 45mins - 1 hour, you will spend $9 at the garage. I've posted photos of the parking garage rates so you can take a look at it. (EDIT on PARKING) -- I later found out that there is free parking at the University Hospital parking lot across the street. The gym will give you a hang tag to put in your car so ask the front desk about it. (EDIT on 4 March 2019) -- I enjoyed my free week of classes. They were fun and challenging. The free week ended on Sunday, 3 March 2019 and I was not ready to join as a member considering that $91 a month is way over my budget. They do offer some student discounts and employer discounts but none of those fit my criteria. I cancelled my free week on Saturday, 2 March 2019 but I will still charged on my credit card. Thankfully, my credit card company rejected the charge. I was still upset when I found out that Tremont Athletic Club charged my card even after I cancelled in person at the front desk and over email. TAC later messaged me (owner, Nick) on Yelp to say they fixed my credit card issue and offered me a free tank top. I thanked them and I do not need a tank top. I do appreciate how Nick (owner) handled this situation. He removed my card from their system and he sincerely apologized. I'm glad that TAC has fixed the issue as this mistake caused me alot of stress considering the personal issues I am already dealing with right now. I've forgiven them because this was a mistake but the issue is too ripe and fresh to forget right now. We all know TAC has good fitness classes and they care about their gym so let's just end this review at that. *** - 33 total reviews in 2019. - 243 total Yelp reviews. - Reviewed on 23 February 2019.

It has made a positive difference in my lifestyle, eat healthy, work out regularly. No work out is easy, everyday you leave with your butt being kicked and realizing how much more there is to achieve. The facility is excellent, coaches are well versed in CrossFit. The emphasis is on ensuring you do it right. The programming led by Jeff, Adam & Katie is adaptive and helps address your shortcomings. So if you want to get fit, improve your strength & conditioning - CrossFit Sixth City is the place to be at. I endorse CSC without any reservations. Addendum: 6/14 CSC has added weekly yoga classes. These are held every Thursday, led by a certified yoga instructor. I find them very complimentary to CrossFit especially with mobility. The yoga classes are open to all & cost $5/session.

Just like Cleveland, Sixth City rocks! Okay, that was super corny, but really, Sixth City is an…read moreawesome place to get your fitness on, and I'm fortunate to have been a member of this incredible community for two years now. One thing that truly sets CSC apart is the fact that no matter your fitness level, the coaches will pay attention to you, help you through your bad habits, and they legitimately want you to succeed. They don't spend all of their time with newbies nor do they spend all of their time with the more experienced athletes, instead, everyone gets personal attention and help where they need it most. Some people complain about the price of a crossfit membership, but with a basic understanding of the product, you'll see that it's well worth it. CSCs coaches take all the hard work out of staying fit--they plan the workouts for you, help you through your weaknesses and encourage you when you want to quit. Beyond that, they take a genuine interest in getting to know you. Bonus points--the gym is in a super convenient location if you work downtown.

I signed up for the Unlimited Starter Pack (2 weeks) hoping to explore aerial classes and see if…read morethis was a good fit. Unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing from both a customer service and overall support standpoint. My first class (Aerial Silks) was less than satisfactory--I actually had to leave early due to motion sickness. While I understand that part is personal tolerance, I was hoping to try other classes within the package before making any longer-term commitment. Shortly after, I had a family medical emergency that required me to leave town to bring a family member back from Montana and help coordinate care at Cleveland Clinic. This obviously limited my ability to attend classes during the remainder of the 2-week window. At the beginning of the second week, I received a call from a representative offering to "help me sign up for classes." I tried to explain my situation and asked if there was any flexibility--specifically whether I could convert my unused time into an Introductory New Flight pack (even if I had to pay an additional fee), so I could properly try classes after my family situation stabilized. Instead of addressing my request, the conversation repeatedly shifted toward selling me a monthly membership. I explained multiple times that I had only attended one class and was not in a position to commit, but the focus remained on upselling rather than listening. What stood out most was the lack of empathy regarding my medical emergency. The call eventually ended abruptly, with the representative saying she was "sorry she called," which felt dismissive and unprofessional. Overall, this experience felt less about supporting new students or encouraging participation in the sport, and more about pushing memberships. I had hoped for a more understanding, flexible, and customer-centered approach.

This studio is not only money hungry, but also has a rude and off putting staff. Not the vibe.read more

I've been going to this small gym for quite some time now that I really thought I already reviewed…read moreit on Yelp but there is a time for everything so here is another review. Keeping this one short and sweet. LOCATION -- Junker Fitness gym is on the main floor of an apartment building so residents who live there have free access to use the gym equipment. It is located right off of the Cleveland Shoreway (freeway) across from Edgewater Park. The actual neighbourhood name is called Detroit-Shoreway, I think, but it is also close to the Gordon Square neighbourhood of Cleveland. CLASSES -- If you're not a resident of the apartment building and therefore don't have access to use the gym equipment, then like myself, you can pay to attend a structured class with a licensed personal trainer. They offer group exercise classes which include HITT and yoga classes ($15/person). The HITT or High Intensity Internal Training classes are my favourite with instructor Christa R. on Saturday mornings. I've also taken Curtis's class and he normally teaches on Wednesdays. I LOVE the HITT class on Saturdays because Christa is a great fitness trainer and the class is limited to a small size of about 10-12 people. The class is 45 mins long and involves using dumbbells (weights), battle ropes, sledge puller, rowing machine, jump ropes, boxing punch bag, etc. We also do alot of body weight exercises such as pushups and squats. Different exercises are done with each class every week. The HITT classes are offered all year-round on Wednesday evenings around 6:30pm and Saturday mornings at 8:15am. The yoga classes are offered when the weather gets warm because the classes are on their rooftop outside. I wish their HITT classes were offered more often throughout the week because that's how much I LOVE them. I highly recommend Junker Fitness if you want personal accountability on your fitness journey. The owner opened a new location in Florida over a year ago now. **** - 38/150 total reviews in 2022 - 516 total overall Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 2 April 2022
