I have been going to Whetstone for about 5 years, and I like it…read more I previously went to a "corporate" type place and after 8 years, they shut down and did not even notify me. Whetstone is smaller but that fits me. Weekday mornings there is usually a dozen or so "mature adults'' and it is a friendly relaxed atmosphere. Typically, Folks greet each other even if just to say "good morning". I have had trainers offer suggestions or help even though I am not their client. The facility is well maintained and clean. When Donnie, the owner, is not with a client he is usually checking equipment or cleaning something. He is very concerned with maintaining a high-quality facility. It may not be the place for everyone. I'm just an old guy that feels better when I work out and I think that is common on weekday mornings. I intend to continue going to Whetstone Fitness.

It's very sales oriented and I knew there was going to be a pitch at the end but they let me off easy They do require you to be there 30 mins in advance which is pretty extreme but it'll help you understand how OTF works and they get you set up. I was done in like 10 mins and I got to talk to the coach on my own which was great. I'll be back.

Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. Equipment was organized and neatly stacked in individual workstations. The week before I arrived I had emailed Juanita to let her know I'd be dropping in. She responded right away and sent me the class schedule so I could plan accordingly. Classes started and ended promptly. Metered parking on the street, but it's very cheap. Thanks for making my first drop-in experience a great one!

It is SO RARE to find a fitness instructor who is not focused on weight loss as essential to being fit.

She's thoughtful and kind to clients, and is developing a really awesome business that everyone should check out. Yay Big Fun Fitness!

There are a…read moreton of options which is really nice: short lunch-time mat classes fit in with the work week really well but then it's nice to also add in longer evening classes. I've only tried the mat classes so can't speak to their several other class types. There's always something new in the mat classes so never repetitive and target different strengths. Primarily only taken classes with Heather and really like her style! She's easy to follow and has a nice tone to her instruction. She's really flexible and nice about scheduling and using the package too. I've seen a few deals (Living Social & Groupon) around too so makes it more affordable to try out.

It is a family business which means there are kids, and an adorable dog. I love that about UTC. A family business knows how to treat another family. The lessons are wonderful. My kids have learned to defend themselves against bullies and are always smiling throughout the exercises. My youngest seems to really have blossomed as a fighter, which you would never guess to look at her. She is cute as a button, and a tiny thing with a lot of power. It can be a year contract for the cheapest overall plan and I understand that can be a deterrent but it holds you accountable. My kids are getting plenty of exercise despite the winter weather. There are month to month plans and I've never showed up to locked doors. I've been coming twice a week for a year, so I don't think this reviewer is credible. The owners exercise extraordinary kindness and guidance toward me and my girls. This place is a gem. Highly recommend.

I had tried massage and chiropractic, but realized that I needed to work on my core strengthening to help resolve my issues.

As soon as I walked in Rebecca acknowledged me with a smile from the front desk. She was so friendly and detailed in giving me a quick walk around of this location. Also met Kianna, one of the gym trainers, who's also very friendly. I really love the idea of badging in for access at any time of day! UPDATE: Unfortunately I'm not going here yet due to distance, i'm going to the Dupont one currently. The price of the month to month here in Lacey is a way better deal, but Dupont is just closer to my work which makes it easier to work out after work. Still will come here after my month at Dupont so I have access! I love the laid back, less crowded, modern vibes from these gyms!
