Whenever I stay in Playa and not in an all inclusive (which I quite prefer...all inclusives are not…read moremy thing, especially in this town with so many great places to go to), then I'll go to this gym. I have been going there for two years now during my stays and have always been treated absolutely great. They have a great team of staff. The gym itself has all the machines one needs to do a full workout. It is a bit tight in some places, but I've never struggled with that. In my opinion, this place rocks and I know I am not alone with that opinion, as the place is very well attended. When you go, don't forget to try one of their before or after workout drinks they make there. I can only recommend this place!! Well done, your My Gym of choice in Playa, hands down!!

The Gym is in the same area as Evolve (just 2 blocks away) it is more expensive for a month I think…read moreit was around 75$ for The Gym which I think is outrageous for Mexico, but sigh welcome to 2020- what isn't insane at this point, and around $45 for Evolve. At the Gym I know its cheaper for locals to visit so if you have a Mexican friend or contact, see if they can get the membership for you. There's no pool, jacuzzi, steam room or sauna. Lockers are included and during the covid error they give you a free towel when your first join and thats it - no towel service. There are showers and a changing area. If you're debating between here and Evolve...and you want to live....come here. I joined for a month during the CoVid era and this was the only gym I thought wouldn't kill me. The crossfit gyms, though cheap in comparison to states, were not airy enough for me and at the Evolve gyms no one followed the mask rules. The main Evolve gym on 5th just felt like one big petri dish of coronavirus - the way it is designed (just one big open space) and the fake that ppl didn't even fake wearing their mask, ugh and it was hot after walking up maybe 7 steps to get to the main area....I may not be in Olympic shape but Im not sure they have proper ventilation or strong enough AC, at The Gym I didn't sweat just from walking or around. Other than that both checked my temperature upon entering the facilities and had hand sanitizer on deck. One more perk of The Gym, is that they close every.single.day from 12 - 2 to do a deep cleaning. Not sure if Evolve does that as well but its nice to know they are trying to keep ppl virus free. The smoothie bar is currently closed. The Gym has all the machines you can think of and it wasn't that crowded when I went in the mornings. They still have fitness classes which they limit the number of participants, but I still wouldn't recommend it - they close the door to the fitness room and don't require you to wear a mask when in class...can you say corona?! Yet, if you are in the other part of the gym the open area - you have to keep the mask on over your nose and mouth even if you are on the treadmill. I've seen one person with their nose out and one wanna be cosmetically enhanced influencer with her mask as a chin strap but other than that, over 30 days ppl wanted to live and wear their mask correctly over their nose and mouth. There's a bike rack out front across the street and the area seems super safe and just to help out the males if you're looking for a local fit boo this is the place, there was always more woman than men in the gym everytime I went. See ya there!

I love taking yoga classes, I was a yoga instructor for many years in San Francisco and NYC and…read morehave taken yoga classes all over the world. I DO NOT recommend this studio for these reasons: 1. UNPROFESSIONAL - I did not receive an introduction to the studio and they knew it was my first time visiting. Class was advertised as 6pm to 7:15pm. They asked me to come early to sign up and I arrived at 5:45pm. The instructor arrived at 6:24pm. That is TWENTY FOUR minutes late. The front desk personnel waited till 6:15 (this is 30 minutes that I've been in the studio now) to let us know the instructor is running late. Did class still end on time? Yes. Which means I got less yoga than I paid for but was required to pay the FULL drop in price. 2. YOGA? Maybe. I'm open to new styles, but the instructor was moving SO fast I started laughing out loud because literally not one participant was keeping up. Breath with movement? I don't think a hamster could breathe that fast. It was entertaining, it was not yoga. 3. BUGS. I used this as a test of yogi patience. I left with about a dozen mosquito bites. I was SO EXCITED to buy a week pass and do classes here everyday during my visit. I had a terrible visit and I hope it is a one off given the great reviews this place normally gets. At the same time, I want to be honest about my experience because it's important for us all to know and make our own decisions about a studio!

I stood and re examined, I am a male and they were halfway to my knees but I though OK. But as I walked through the club I noticed at least two women with shorts on that were so short that looked like panties. I would ask the club to apply the rules to ALL patrons including women.
