The Outdoor YMCA embodies summer all in one place…read more And you know--I used to think it was just something I loved as a child, but a recent visit has shown me that it's still a blast as an adult! First, you have to be a member, but it's super cheap to get in, even if you're a YMCA member out in Cuyahoga County--and trust me, it's worth the trip. $5 for adults and $4 for kids is a steal, when you think about how much you'll spend at your typical waterpark. Putt-putt, basketball courts, soccer fields, cabins, hiking trails, rollerblading, rock climbing and one helluva sweet water park! Got babes? Try the wadding pool. Youngins? The splash and the kiddie water park is perfect. Or if your kids are strong swimmers, have them take the swim test and enjoy a huge pool with two water slides and aqua rock climbing walls. I swear my boyfriend's 8 1/2 year old lost his friggin' mind (and yes, he requires that I include the half year.) I also love that the snack shack includes healthy and unhealthy snacks, including fruit, froyo, chips, popsicles, ice cream bars, hot dogs, nachos, low calorie and fountain drinks. Plus anything you forgot at home, like pool noodles, sunscreen, goggles and more. But hey, want to bring your own food, drinks and snacks for your kids? You can totally do that, too! WHAT?! Yes! Seriously, I love this place. Come here with your kids, they'll love you forever (and ever.)

Everyone is friendly here.. the owner, the employees, the members. Being overweight, it's hard to find a place where I can do my thing without being judged. You can find all sorts of people here, all ages, all cultures, all body types. There is plenty of equipment available - no need to wait for someone else to finish. They have actual locker rooms with showers. In the women's room, they have a small basket where people have donated their hotel toiletries for others to use. This is awesome if you want to shower and have left yours at home. There is a lounge you can relax in as well.

I joined the new University Circle location of Tremont Athletic Club in January 2019, just after…read morethey opened. The gym is spacious, attractive, and stocked with every kind of gym equipment a person could want. Being a member has motivated me to work out nearly every day since joining, which is new for me! Here are some things I really like about TAC: Classes: I've taken many of the yoga classes offered including the "Hustle & Flow" series which is similar to the "Core Power" style of yoga. The yoga classes are heated and most would be appropriate for a range of skill levels. I've enjoyed all the classes I've been to so far and they are all included with a membership. Peloton: This is my new obsession! I sort of hesitate to write this part of the review because I don't want the 5 bike Peloton studio to blow up and become too busy. The studio is set up nicely--it's a dark room rimmed by colorful LED lights, just like the studio in NYC. My one (tiny) gripe is that the bikes all seem calibrated differently, so on one you may feel like you are doing really well and then on another bike you might not even be able to get into the bottom of the suggested resistance range without dying. I think this is a known problem with Peloton and not so much a TAC issue, but maybe they can be re-calibrated somehow? Equipment: I never have a problem getting a bench, squat rack, dumbbells, etc. They also have kettle bells, monkey bars (ish?), and lots and lots of cardio equipment. Parking: They give you a hang tag for a parking lot right across the street. Super easy and convenient. Locker Rooms: They are very clean and pleasant to be in. The lockers allow you to set a code, so there's no need to bring your own lock or carry around a key. The women's locker room has 4-5 showers and a steam room. Overall this is a great place to work out. The gym, its staff and members are full of positive vibes and I just enjoy being there. :D

**FREE PARKING* (see my update below)…read more Additional updates to this review is below. 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.

They are usually pretty packed on Mondays and Fridays as she has a strong and loyal following. I moved to the area a year ago and signed up with her. I took her classes and was hooked. I literally craft my life schedule so I can attend as often as possible. I have spinal and lower back problems. She is a very experienced and highly qualified personal trainer. Her instruction made me stronger (cardio endurance and muscle strength), leaner and bikini ready! Also significantly improved (decreased) my back pain as I now have (visible) abs and much stronger core and balance. I am in my early 50s. I've gotten so many compliments on my physique, even told I pass for my 30s. A lot of older women in class, but don't let that fool you-these ladies blew me away with their endurance. Over time, you realize you are getting stronger and realize the improvements. Highly recommend. Oh they also offer yoga at 6:15 on Thursday evenings. Erin the yoga teacher is an experienced professional. Nikki teaches Sunday morning at 9a, and is also a very experienced fitness trainer and yoga instructor. Great classes to get invigorated and a solid stretch which is great for muscle recovery. Both are great for stress relief as well ‍

I enjoy the facilities and services at 121. Parking and saunas are a huge plus. The only concerns I…read morehave are regarding their recently opened Uptown Cycle. I've attended at least five classes here, and I think the studio space is well decorated (albeit a tad small) and the instructors are decent for the most part. The "reception staff" however needs some work. The past two classes I've taken I've been greeted with a surly, insinuating "can I help you?" upon walking in. Perhaps a more welcoming and friendly "Hi! Are you here for the 12pm class? Let me check you in" would be more suitable. Additionally, instead of sitting in your chairs during class on your phones (yes, class participants do see you back there) try to be more a tune to the class needs. For example, 30 minutes into an hour long class today, the room was getting quite stuffy. Obviously the instructor is preoccupied, so maybe the staff member doing nothing should take some initiative and turn a fan on for the class. I personally love 121, their new spin studio could just use some more improvements.

One to One has all the basics. But they're all charged at a premium courtesy to them being on…read moreUniversity Circle. One to One oftentimes has promotions such as a senior/65+ year old special. Other than those specials, One to One isn't worth the cost unless you're a student at Case. The indoor track looks more suitable for rolling a ball as opposed to running on. The swimming pool is an extra fee and located in the Veale Center. The only workouts you can do here are all on machines since the space is so small. The weight room is sorely lacking too. One to One is good for a person who is into casual all around fitness. Not for someone who's more dedicated to one muscle area and looking for a personal trainer. Parking available in a nearby garage. One to One will validate parking as long as you remember to ask the employees before leaving.
