She is two, so she is more than ready to leave after her hour playing, but she warmed up quick. The front desk staff is great as well. No problems so far. It's nice seeing the staff working out after, before or days off. Makes it feel a little more comfortable in the gym seeing so many familiar faces. Even though I never talk to anyone. Even when it's packed you can always get your entire workout in. Plenty of space. I would say my only complain is that the community of the gym is rather messy. They move chairs and benches around daily. And never put them back into a reasonable home. The dumbbell area is always jammed up with awkwardly placed benches. Making it super inconvenient for new awkward gym goers to know where to stand in the mirror area.

I recently moved to Greenville. When I started going to this gym, I absolutely loved it! The…read moreclasses are really great when they happen. That's right when they happen. Seems there's a problem and the teachers don't know when to show up or what they're teaching. They're changing the schedule and although there's a schedule online, that's very clear, the teachers don't seem to be aware of it. We show up for the classes and the instructors don't. One instructor always shows up 10 minutes late. I've spoken to other people who take our classes regularly and this one instructor is always late. One instructor, Katie, is great! She shows up early, she's prepared for her class. She instructions really well and she gives very clear instructions. The instructor that shows up late, her name is Angie. She's enthusiastic and a good teacher, but being chronically late is really wrong. Instructors need to show up early and be there before the class starts. Not walk in after the class should've started and first get set up. And today the third instructor didn't even know that she had a class to teach. She showed up for a class that doesn't exist anymore and then didn't show up for the class that does exist. Sadly, those of us showed up for class and had to keep going up to the front counter to find out what was going on. And no point did anyone come into the class and explain that there was a confusion on the instructors end and there would be no class, we all had to keep going up to the front desk. 20 minutes after the class should have started after asking the manager she said no there is no class today due to the confusion. But again, no one bothered to come into the room until all of us waiting around for a class to start that it wasn't happening today. One of the class members said she's looking for a new gym. I know I'm switching gyms.

I moved to the Black Mountain, NC area 4 years ago (2016). I had been working with a personal…read moretrainer in Atlanta, and I was anxious to find a gym near my new home. I visited a few "big box" gyms in Asheville and Black Mountain, then Ascending Fitness. I was immediately drawn to the small group cross training classes there (think physically safe, not like some other cross training places where injuries abound), but I doubted I could get as good a workout in a group vs. individually. Boy, was I wrong! After attending the group classes over a period of time, I realized I'd NEVER been stronger and in better shape (I'm a 62 yr. old woman, BTW), and the social aspect of a small group was fun and kept me motivated. I've been working out there 3 times a week ever since. The workouts are full body, including strength, balance, and aerobic. It's amazing how much Jim can work into 45 minutes. He also has a great library of online videos that use body weight and all kinds of household and hotel items to workout - very handy while we were all housebound due to Covid. If you're just starting out with a program, Jim also offers classes in balance and stability and "bridge" classes to transition from balance and stability to the full circuit training class. I can't say enough about the positive effects working out at Ascending Fitness brought/brings to me. All the creaky, sore joints and back are pain free now. 100% recommend this place!

I love working out at Ascending Fitness! The group exercise is small-limited to 8 people. Jim Frith…read moreis by far the best trainer I've ever worked with. He's extremely careful about injury prevention and knows how to train all ages and fitness capabilities. I got tired of packed gyms where I would lift weights and hope for the best. I did not want shoulder surgery like many of my friends were needing after their workout injuries. I've missed Jim and his wonderful clients during COVID. If you want a better quality of life, sign up now to have Jim assess you! You won't regret it!
