I have been a member of Equinox Great Neck for years, but I am leaving because the billing issues…read morehave become so serious that keeping a credit card on file feels financially unsafe. In my experience, charges can appear without clear notice or explanation, and resolving them can be frustrating. If you have ever purchased a private fitness training package or Pilates package, I strongly recommend keeping your own detailed record of the number of sessions remaining, cancellations, and any communication with trainers or the front desk. I have experienced mistaken charges related to private lessons, including charges that appeared to be connected to incorrect input by instructors or confusion around remaining sessions. Illnesses and unexpected situations can happen, but I found that the billing process does not always handle these situations carefully, and late cancellation or full-course charges may still appear unexpectedly. Another issue is the high turnover of private trainers and Pilates instructors. Customers can easily end up dealing with a new trainer or front desk staff who may not know the full history, especially if the prior trainer involved in the mistaken charge has already left the company. This makes it very difficult to resolve billing issues afterward. Overall, the billing and session-tracking process feels disorganized. I recommend that customers monitor their credit card statements closely, ask for written confirmation of all package balances and cancellations, and be very cautious about relying on the club's internal records alone.

Be prepared to jump rope, jumping jacks, running up & down stairs, squats, push-ups, use cool-obstacle course equipment and ropes. Overall the class was totally worth the money and I will definitely be back for more (some may call it torture...!

I am not a runner at all and probably spent more time walking than running. But the class was so positive and to be honest, everyone was so focused on themselves that they didn't care what I was doing. I have to make sure I'm staying safe too and won't injure myself. I enjoyed the class so much that when I came back to the city, I started taking classes once a week at a location near my job. I feel so energized after every class and my cardio is definitely improving.

Barre. So. Hard. I…read morecame here for the first time today and Kristen the instructor was super friendly and helpful. I've tried barre at Exhale and Bar Method before, but Pure Barre was definitely my favorite. Most barre classes are upbeat and challenging, but Pure Barre definitely has the best set of moves and number of repetitions. No matter how fit you are, this class will beat you up. I really loved that the stretches were scattered in between the most challenging exercises for sufficient rest. None of the stretches felt rushed, which is what I've experienced at other studios. The lockers are easy, there's a key to the lock so you don't have to bring your own. The studio itself is well-kept and clean, and the class wasn't crowded at all at the Sunday 7am class. Highly recommended!

I'm a big fan of the JCC--the facility is great, the crowd is vibrant and diverse, there's great…read moreprograms, and the staff is smart and genuinely helpful. So why only four stars? I joined to swim, and the pool itself is excellent. The problem is what happens right before people get in: no one showers. I've seen people go straight from the basketball court, still schvitzing, into the jacuzzi (ew!). I've even seen lifeguards hop in without rinsing off. When even the referees aren't following the rules, as stated on the sign there, it's not a great sign. All this isn't exactly appetizing. I've lived abroad and traveled quite a bit, and there's a cultural aspect to this. In France, skipping the pre-swim shower is unthinkable. In Iceland, someone actually supervises your scrub-down before you're allowed into the hot pots. In Mexico City, where I swim in a private gym akin to the JCC, it's definitely enforced. In Japan--forget about it. I've raised this three times with Steve Miller, the director of health and wellness. His view is that they add enough chlorine to kill the germs and that people should know better, but there's no real way to enforce it--lifeguards need to watch the pool, not police showering. (Though they do other distracted things like testing the water.) His proposed solution has been new signage--but who knows when? And I'm skeptical a sign will succeed where social norms have failed. It comes down to education. Most people in the pool where caps, for instance. Why? That's what they were told. So, why not tell them to shower? It's simply a matter of priorities, which this doesn't seem to be. Maybe I'm the only one who cares--based on the evidence, that might be true. But for a place that does so many things right, this one issue, for me, is hard to ignore.
