So I wanted to wait a while after I joined this gym to write a review. I've been going here for…read moreabout 4 months now + I've tried everything but the pool. The staff are really nice here + the facilty is recently renovated + looks pretty good. It is a bit small + quaint... + well lets be honest.... a little overpriced now a days with all these $10/month gyms. I joined because of the classes. The classes are OK--- belly dancing is fun... but i didn't break a sweat! there is a great bootcamp class on Monday nights. Wish it was more than once a week! I also wish that they had classes starting around 5:30pm more often for people who work in the area that want to get the gym out of the way right after work or lunch time classes. The classrooms are really small so they can get packed-- HOLY YOGA SPOON FEST. so cramped but that is because the instructor is really great. The spinning room is also VERY VERY SMALL and cramped. They are trying their best with the space they have. They work out area is small + a lot of the equipment is on its way out. they do have some newer ellipticals + treadmills with tvs on them if that's yo thang! If you need a lil local gym time, this is your kinda place!

My initial sentiments had the fortunate padding of coming at the end of a string of writing…read morepositive reviews. Knocking another star off because of a sad fact I was reminded of at one of my recent nightly workouts. Some of the personal trainers are an absolute displeasure to share the room with. As I always do (and as is considered polite in a crowded gym) when it is unclear if a person is using a piece of equipment I would like to get on, I asked one of them politely if they were using the machine next to them. The response I got was "Are you kidding me? If I was I would've yelled at you." I was literally taken back, there was no need for such a snarky response to a complete stranger asking a question aimed to be considerate. They also dash from area to area, taking up egregious amounts of this poor excuse of a weight room's already limited real estate with their one or two clients. All of this is done in a fashion that has caused me to almost get hit by weights and body parts while sitting still (in most cases while already having moved my equipment to be more accommodating to them). There are other paying patrons here besides your clients, please treat the area as such. **I would like to clarify that the above does not apply to the general staff, which is always friendly and helpful. Always a hello on the way in, a goodbye on the way out, and happy to answer any questions you may have. Another note on the locker rooms - there is almost always a crowd of kids just hanging out in there, taking up large amounts of the extremely limited space in this dingy, disgusting locker room. In addition to sitting around on their phones and video games for what seems like at least 45 mins at a time, they run right into the changing area soaking wet, making the floor a disgusting and slippery mess.

Healthtrax is a good fitness chain that provides nearly all the amenities one could need for…read morefitness and wellness. This location is no exception, although the facilities and equipment have definitely seen better days. The staff seem to be trying their best to inject some life into the location. There is still a lot to appreciate here: a jacuzzi, dry sauna, women's steam room, pool, basketball court, and racquetball courts. Their current condition, however, is a different story. The group exercise classes are solid, with options for nearly every fitness level and type of workout. Most of the Group X classes at this location use MOSSA programming. They are challenging enough to provide a good workout, but still approachable and beginner-friendly. At the same time, a facility offering this range of amenities is probably costly to operate and maintain. This location, in particular, is overdue for meaningful investment and modernization. The membership has increasingly shifted toward an older demographic, perhaps because of the emphasis on wellness and recovery. Families appear to come mainly for the pool, while younger members gravitate toward the basketball court. The racquetball courts have seen better days and have now been converted into multifunctional spaces, which is a bit sad. Evening group classes that once drew large crowds now rarely exceed five participants, with one or two exceptions. The morning classes are killing it, in contrast. The range of fitness equipment is comprehensive. There is a machine for almost every type of functional training or exercise, but much of it is very dated. It is almost a chicken-and-egg question. Would renovating and investing in the facility attract a new group of members who could help sustain the business, or does the gym first need to attract those members to afford the renovation? That seems to be where this location stands at the moment. For me, things are still good enough that I continue to go, but they could certainly be better.

The sanitation is a definite issue. it doesn't seem like any janitor or maintenance staff are…read moreemployed. The locker room cleaned and are pretty foul. Equipment is in disrepair. A poorly-funded health club option that struggles with diversity and sanitation Find alternatives.
