There's nothing better than being with a gym so long you get to experience all the growth that…read morecomes with it! Nikki & Nick have really built something special in Scottsdale. I haven't been at Bodi since the beginning but I have been a member for over 5 years and I definitely love that place! There are multiple options of classes that incorporate strength and cardio, yoga, heated mat Pilates and boxing (now Hyrox based class and straight lifting classes). They have expanded to 3 studios to offer all those classes, which is amazing! There's always a variety of exercises to hit the main muscles groups and the accessory muscle groups. The recovery room is super convenient to use after a class or on a rest day. Variety of class times to meet a large range of schedules. They truly value their members and community and are constantly finding ways to benefit the members even more. It can always be a little intimidating trying a new gym or class but I think they do a great job at trying to make everyone feel welcome & it's generally easy to follow along if feeling lost during a workout. The coaches bring so much energy & fun to the classes as well. Bodi is very affordable in comparison to other gyms (especially if you catch one of their sales around holidays). Class pass is another great way to experience some bodi classes. Definitely worth it to try at least once!!

I've only taken three strength training classes so far, but they've all been great. The workouts…read moreare effective, creative, and genuinely fun. I also love the layout of the gym it's clean, well spaced out, and the equipment is great. My only con so far is that, in my experience, the trainers haven't been very engaged with the class or offered much guidance on form. One of the things I love most about group fitness is when instructors hype up the room & shouting out members, offering motivation, or demoing the moves alongside the class instead of just in the beginning and I haven't really seen that yet. That said, the staff are all super friendly, the gym offers so much more than just strength training (which I'm excited to explore), and the playlists are a solid 10/10. If you're in Scottsdale or just want to try a new gym I highly recommend this one!

You provided us guidance to reach out to the club which we certainly did, unfortunately our emails…read moreare being ignored. Yes you're correct we did indicate years back that DC Ranch services (especially kids club) were great, purpose of this review is to let you know that unfortunately services are far from where they need to be for this very expensive club. We have questions about licensing that were always ignored as well or met with negative response. We have experienced overcharging, (when caught) the refunds were either partial or issued club credit - we never requested. We would love to talk to you in person or over the phone as we are being ignored by DC Ranch.

Village Health Club has some positives -- the facilities are generally clean, the staff on site are…read morefriendly, and it has the feel of a community club. When everything is operating as expected, it can be a pleasant place to work out. That said, there have been ongoing frustrations. The monthly cost continues to feel high for the value received, especially with added credit card processing fees that come across as unnecessary "nickel and diming." Renovations were promised within a specific timeframe, but key amenities -- including the sauna and spa areas -- have remained unavailable longer than expected while members continue paying full dues. Communication from leadership has also been disappointing. Concerns were raised but not meaningfully addressed, which makes it harder to justify the premium pricing. Overall, it's a decent club with potential, but the pricing, transparency, and follow-through on promised improvements need work.

Mr. Lucas James was instrumental in helping me look and feel great for my wedding…read more Not only did he recommend and push my workouts, he didn't hold back on emphasizing the significance of a clean diet. Additionally, his dietician named Mary was great in trying to keep me compliant (which was a challenge from my perspective lol) Long story short, I am very happy with his team, and would recommend anyone to trust his words of executive personal training and wisdom.

I've been working out with Lucas since I moved to Scottsdale about 1.5 years ago…read more Lucas is the first true personal trainer I've worked with, but I have had multiple gym memberships at various places, some of which allowed me to sign up for one-off 1:1 training sessions. Unfortunately, none of those gym memberships or 1:1 training sessions worked for me. The difference between my prior memberships and Lucas is the accountability factor and the added bonus of having a registered dietitian helping from a nutrition standpoint. No one at 24 Hour Fitness is holding you accountable to show up everyday, and no one at Orangetheory is delivering a workout that is tailored to your specific goals. Lucas has been great about adjusting workouts based on my personal objectives, and his dietitian has been equally great with consistent recommendations specifically for me. Above all: Lucas switches it up so it's not boring and mundane, he's fun and personable, and he's flexible with my crazy busy work and travel schedule. I'd recommend him to anyone looking to get fit. If you put in the work, you will see results!

It has been over 110F for the past two weeks here in Phoenix, so we try our best to stay cool and…read morehydrated. This past Saturday, we decided to come visit this aquatic center as suggested by my partner. The place has open aquatic recreation from 1pm -5:30pm and you can either hang out on the recreation pool side with slide and lazy river or hang out on the other side where there is lap swim and a diving pool. Both my partner and I wanted to lap swim, so this review is mainly for that. For residents, the charge is $4/person, a pretty sweet deal to hang out at a pool all afternoon vs. go into downtown Phoenix and pay way more to be in a very crowded pool at a hotel event. Locker rooms were fine, lockers available, and we opted to bring all our stuff close to where we could see it. I had some of my diving gear with me, and lifeguards had no problem with us using our snorkel and fins. You'd think on a 115F afternoon that this place would be packed, and thankfully, it was not. We had no issues with lanes, and at one point, my partner and I had separate lanes for about 20 min! Overall, this was a great experience. We got some relief from our heat wave, got in a decent lap swim session (probably need to swim more, arms aren't completely shot today lol) and the price was really good! We'll definitely be back for more!

I've been thinking about taking Pilates classes for a few years. I'm new in town and recently…read morerelocated to the Phoenix area. I looked everywhere for a good Pilates studio, then went on Google and Instagram and found this gem. I decided to fill out my information and Libby contacted me. She's amazing. I told her about my history of injuries and that I wanted to rehab my shoulder, and she was so understanding. I got set up for my first class and was extremely nervous because of my injuries. Before class started, Libby explained how to use the machine and helped get me set up, which made me feel comfortable right away. My first intro class was amazing. It was definitely a challenge, but wow, I worked so many different muscles I haven't used in a long time. The instructor, Kaitlyn, was amazing too. She helped me throughout the class and kept checking asking how's my shoulder since they already knew about my shoulder and knee injuries. Most instructors wouldn't take the time to check in during class, but Kaitlyn was right there helping me during different exercises and helping with techniques. After such a great intro class, I followed up with Libby and joined. Investing in your body is the ultimate gift. Helping me rehab my shoulder and knee injuries is going to improve so much for me. If you're looking for a great environment with patient instructors who truly have empathy, this is the place to join if you want to see real results. I'm excited about the future of this studio. Awesome place.

I knew the minute after I signed up it was a mistake, first off there's no low introductory class…read more Period. The instructors are super young, they play annoying music, they don't pay attention to your form or if you misheard what springs are changed, or even if your form is correct. They don't allow for stretch in between strengthen. It's easier on the body to rest one minute and stretch in between moves not 15 minutes at the end. I was so spoiled at the last business i attended, that went out of business due to owner retirement. I gave Define another few chances for $170- I was only able to get 3 classes in for the one month time period, due to my busy work schedule, living 25 mins away, and suffering from migraines. Total rip off! Never again. It's easier for me to pay as I go but the sales pressure you into getting the so called best value- which is only best for the owners pocketbook! Listen Ashley LeGrand Jahner- your hyped up sales tactics you force on your staff isn't doing yourself a service- word of mouth on a bad business has a greater impact than your friendsies putting 5 stars on here. And- this is NOT concierge. Look the word up. Every class but the 7 am on the weekend had a waitlist booked out for weeks.
