Only qualm would be needing to check in with a staff member each visit. Room for improvement could be a card that you get for the term of your pass. Otherwise, it was seamless! There's a great turf area for stretching/any kind of free weight or circuit you'd like to throw together. Free weight area has plenty of space to always get a mirror spot. Cardio equipment is a bit on the older side but did its job. I did a good amount of running and intervals, and didn't run into any issues. I will absolutely be back when I'm in the area next! And highly recommend.

I came here once while I was visiting Charleston for the weekend. Decent workout, but don't care…read morefor the attitude. Here's the thing... A megaformer workout is a fantastic workout anywhere you go as long as the instructor knows what s/he is doing. I'd say the classes here are up to par with classes I've taken in CA and NY, except you're paying big city prices for a short class (40 minutes instead of the usual 50-60 minutes at other studios), so the $35 price tag is very steep all things considered. The class was small and not full on a Monday morning- 5 people, including my last minute sign up in person. The teacher/owner did not focus much on form. I've taken other classes where the instructors are really good about making adjustments and watching students, even with larger groups. I had not taken a megaformer class in a year and felt she could've guided a little better (rather than expect us to just stare at other students who sometimes didn't know what was going on either). I had to complain twice about the cables on my machine being uneven (making it difficult to do symmetrical exercises) before she suggested I move to another machine; this was after she told me i might have uneven arms... I had to stare at her helplessly a few times before she helped me toward the last half of the class. So, to be fair, she did eventually come help me out. First classes are $20. If you look at the advertisements and the cards they have at the studio, your first class should be $20, but... it depends on the owner's discretion. She claims that the offer is only valid for locals, but that seems completely arbitrary, especially when the ads don't say that (see attached). None of the studios in NYC condition their first time specials on where you live. And in New York larger studios like SLT offer two classes for $36 for newcomers. When she proceeded to charge me $35 for my first session, I asked whether there were any intro offers to confirm... and she started to talk about her doing intro packages in New York where she just got back from vacation and I had to politely stop her because no, i'm talking about for me, right now, the person standing in your studio who is being charged...[insert eye roll].

I'm dropping my review down by a star. I have been here over a year now and while I like the gym…read moretheir AC is horrendous. I understand it's a big facility, of course everyone working out is going to heat the place up... so you would think they'd invest in a better unit and or run it colder. Within five minutes of being there, before I start working out on occasions, I'm already sweating. I don't remember it being this bad last summer. And that's the thing- it's not even summer yet so how much worse is this going to get? The staff remains nice and friendly. There has been no update in the equipment in the last year I've attended so half of it is new and half is outdated. That being said everything works well and there is something for everyone. Even when it is busy there is always equipment or space available for you to move. I've heard other members complain about the teens hanging around. While I haven't experienced that myself yet I can only pray this doesn't turn into another PF. That's why I left that gym- because parents used it as a daycare and instead of the teens working out they just hogged equipment to yap. I'll update over the summer.

There are no clear signs indicating where to park and there are a ton of potholes near the gym. Second, the lobby area is neat and clean. They have a cafe that is open to anyone, and you do not have to be a member to grab a coffee. They also have cool freebies like "Better Earned" stickers and rubber bracelets. I am actually wearing one as I type this, and it serves as a nice reminder of what I'm working towards.

It's not a bunch of machines with "how to" labels on them... it's free weights, squat racks, some benches, some machines upstairs... it definitely has a grit vibe... so if that's what you're looking for it may be a great fit for you!
