    I've been a weekend hacker for approximately 15 years of playing golf. My decision to start taking…read morelessons is largely due to COVID and not being able to snowboard (my main sport) for the year. I purchased a full package of lessons/fitting for a full year (25 lessons) My coach is Chris Sweet and he is an excellent coach. For the first two months, my swing was deconstructed into different parts and he does a great job of not overloading you with adjustments to make. During this time, my swing fell apart but it makes sense - especially if you understand the plateau of latent potential. From my initial swing evaluation to only 8 lessons and 10 weeks later, I've gained about 35 yards of carry distance on my 7 iron (130 yards to 165 yards) adding a nice draw into my shot shape and I haven't even gotten a club fitting yet. I think this speaks volumes about the quality of instruction I received with Chris. If you're familiar with learning something new and improving at it as quickly as possible, you'll know it takes commitment/practice on your part. They have a plethora of resources available to become a student of the game and continue learning even while you're not striking balls. Additionally, you can review past lessons and refer to them if something stops working with your swing which was critically important for me.

    I paid for my classes which included being fitted for clubs yet I was never afforded the latter. I…read moresent multiple emails to arrange for the fitting and never received a response. Also the instruction I received seemed to be more confusing than helpful. Since I've completed classes there I've spent a lot of time reviewing YouTube videos and reading books and I realized my issue was my hands. If you're not holding the club correctly you will never get your form correct especially on the back swing. Once I figured this out, my swing improved dramatically. But this is something they should have been stressed at GolfTEC. I felt as though the instructor was disconnected insofar as training and was just "mailing it in." I'm not saying it was worthless because that would not be fair - there were some good pointers that I picked up there but I felt there should have been more emphasis on basic concepts that may have made a huge difference for me. Are they friendly? Absolutely. They were never rude. They were always genuinely friendly. My recommendation is read as much as you can in advance and watch as many videos as you can before you go there because I doubt if you will receive any strong technical explanation (no handouts were given at all just some scribble on a board in the room). It isn't worth it in my opinion. I honestly believe that , with a little training, I could explain more than I received: when you are not good at something and then figure things out you can readily share those pitfalls with others.

    Incredible round of golf with friends. It was my wedding weekend and the greens were in pristine…read morecondition and the layout was challenging. Will certainly return this summer to try all 27 holes. Mulligan to the Green for life.

    Great course! One of the more challenging ones the area with elevation, difficult greens and…read morehazards that play to tee box. Fairly long at /almost 6500yrds. Fairways were nice and well kept. Trees are medium to large and do come into play. The elevation can throw off distances, so when playing a higher elevation green, club up for sure. Rough is ok unless to go for it in which case you run the chance of get ur clubhead snagged. Greens are tough...Seems the groundskeeper was having a bad morning but everything was on a slope it seemed. Still did better than the two regulars who were paired up with me. One thing that did get me was how humid it was...It wrecked havoc on my grip and I had to be conscious of it. Pro-shop like all the courses I have been to in NJ and border NY have no ball markers for sale. However, the gent at the shop gave a sample one since he heard I was visiting from CA. That was class of him for sure. Love the course and layout. I played Pines and Lake side which confused my golf app but 85 everywhere is 85. Highly recommend...Not sure why a lot of golfers in the area grade so harshly on their courses...As I have mentioned to others I have golfed with in the area. Your municipal courses are like amour high end courses from a groundskeeping standpoint. Plus most of the people I have played so far in the Northern NJ border NY we're ok at best 20-30+ hdcpers and are the last people who should review any course. Now if you are mid to single digit handicapper this is a must golf if you are in the area and highly recommended if you are looking for a challenging course.

    I've been a member since 2019 and I must say....I love everything about this location. The parking…read moreis across the street from the gym and we are allowed 2 free hours of parking which is more than enough for me. The workout area is great. Since it's so big I have NEVER had an experience where my work out was slowed due to availability. I thoroughly enjoy chatting with the staff and I see the efforts they make to keep the gym as neat as possible. It is disappointing to see all the negative reviews but if you can read between the lines, machines being broken, weights all over the gym, that's all member caused issues. What I do see is staff addressing things as fast as possible. If a machine is out of service for a odd length of time just ask the staff for an update and they'll gladly let you know what the delay is. This gym is like my second home, the staff and many members are like family. I highly recommend this location!

    LA Fitness, 77 Cole Strret, Ridge Hill in Yonker, NY .....My Experience…read more I joined the LA Fitness in Yonkers looking forward to getting back into shape. Instead, what I expected to be a simple purchase of six personal training sessions turned into months of disputed charges, repeated requests for my contract, and ultimately having to involve my bank to stop the withdrawals. On my first day, I met a trainer named Giani. He was personable, engaging, and clearly an experienced salesperson. He initially presented me with a personal training package that was far beyond my budget. When I politely declined, he brought over his manager, who lowered the price several times. Even then, I explained that the cost still wasn't something I could justify. I also explained that my hesitation wasn't just about the money. Years earlier, I had been trapped in a gym contract that kept renewing and was nearly impossible to cancel. Both Giani and his manager acknowledged that they had heard similar stories. They assured me that LA Fitness was different and even gave me a separate written document stating that once my six personal training sessions were completed, my contract would not be renewed. That reassurance is what convinced me to move forward. We ultimately agreed on $71 per one-hour session. I paid $142 that day for the first two sessions and specifically asked to be billed $71 per month for the remaining four sessions. Before leaving, I asked for a copy of my contract. Giani told me their printer wasn't working but promised to mail it to me the following day. Looking back, I wish I had insisted on receiving it before I left. What has always puzzled me is that they were able to print the separate document stating my contract would not renew after the six sessions, yet I was told they couldn't print the actual contract itself. The contract never arrived. Over the next several visits, I asked Giani for a copy of my contract multiple times and was repeatedly told the printer still wasn't working. The billing problems started almost immediately. Instead of charging me the agreed-upon $71 the following month, I was charged another $142. At first, I assumed it was simply an oversight and expected it would be corrected. When I was charged $142 again the next month, I contacted Giani and explained that I had been overcharged. I requested a credit for the extra amount. The charges continued. On June 26, Giani emailed me and stated that I had signed up for 12 personal training sessions, to be used at a rate of two sessions per month, at $71 per session. He also told me that if I wanted to end the agreement early, I would have to pay a "buyout." That email was the first time I realized that what he believed I had agreed to was completely different from what I believed I had agreed to. I had agreed to purchase six training sessions--not twelve--and I had never agreed to any buyout provision. At least I finally had some indication of what had apparently been written in the contract I was never given. It also explained why I continued to be billed and how many more months I likely would have been charged for services I never believed I had agreed to purchase. By the fifth month (last month), I had been charged $284 more than I believed we had agreed to. I contacted my bank, disputed the charges, and asked them to block any future payments from LA Fitness. When another $142 charge appeared this month, I went to my bank in person, canceled my debit card, obtained a new card number, and filed another dispute. The funds were returned to my account while the dispute was being investigated. I also called the club and spoke with someone at the front desk. I mentioned that I thought it was unprofessional that I had repeatedly been told the printer wasn't working. She responded that their printers were working just fine and that they had no issues with them. Hearing that left me wondering why I had been told for months that they couldn't print my contract. Unfortunately, even though Giani said he would email me a copy last month I still have not received it. All I have are the notes I wrote in my LA Fitness notebook on the day we reached our agreement. I have no way of knowing 100% what was actually written in the contract they have on file except the inaccurate version that Giani informed me at that If you're considering purchasing personal training at this location, my advice is simple: don't leave without a signed copy of every document you agree to, verify exactly what you will be charged and when, and keep detailed records of every conversation. Better yet join another gym it will be less worry.
