Absolutely incredible gym tucked away off the main road close to Pantops. A day pass is $10 and a…read moreweek pass is $25 which I think is a great deal if you're just visiting for a short time. You are able to access the gym any time of the day even on a guest pass - just message/call the owner ahead of time to get access information. The gym itself has only a few cardio machines: treadmill, elliptical, erg, ski erg, stair master. What is truly the star of this gym are the machines. No two machines are exactly the same and each serve a specific purpose. I did a full leg day here and had 3 different leg presses and a hack/reverse hack squat machine to choose from. The cable equipment had every type of handle/grip that you could want nicely hung up on the wall. There are a good number of dumbbells and barbells to use as well. There's a very small turf area with a sled, boxes, bands, and kettle bells. If you only want to do cardio, this may not be the best fit, but if you do any type of weightlifting (powerlifting, bodybuilding, crossfit) this is the place for you! I will definitely be returning the next time I find myself in Charlottesville!

My daughter and I have been members of the Brooks Family YMCA in Charlottesville for less than 6…read moremonths and we love it. It is an incredibly clean and organized facility with lots of options for cardio and weight training. I love the spin classes which are available almost daily and various hours of the day. The instructors for spin classes are all incredible and challenging yet approachable and encouraging. The indoor walking/running track is awesome boasting large beautiful window seats which offer beautiful views of the trees behind the building. There's even a child care facility onsite! The design of the building itself is also thoughtful. There are locker rooms but multiple cubbies and jacket racks for storage. There are two levels , the lower level with the basketball court and yoga/ studio rooms as well as a large weight training area. Not to knock the local fitness centers but I was a longtime member of ACAC however due to a job change I could no longer afford that membership. I've waited 4 years to rejoin a gym and the Brooks Family YMCA is definitely worth the wait. Everyone I meet at the YMCA appears to be as satisfied as I am and why not?!? We have the cleanest, most modern and affordable facility with the most amenities in Charlottesville, Va. Thank You to everyone who had a hand in brining this YMCA to our area.

This facility does not honor the military outreach program that the rest of the YMCA's across the…read morecountry have implemented. The rude lady at the front desk yesterday said she called her manager, who told her we needed to give her a "list from the DOD." First of all, there is no DoD, it is the DoW. Second, who would give you this list, Hegseth? Third, we have CaC cards that prove what part of the DoW we serve with.

I visited upstairs and did the elliptical, some free weights and a leg press. all worked great. I was disappointed to learn that ACAC as a multi-location workout facility doesn't have a membership tier that is inclusive for temporary/non-residents. it's either, you buy a one-time pass for $25; a three-day one; or a full monthly. nothing in between. Charlottesville itself is known for having a very transient, ever-changing population so this policy doesn't make sense to me. When I was there, some weirdo was on the stairclimber making this god-awful coughing noise about every 10 seconds. look, I know everyone has their workout quirks but spreading your germs around knowingly (in the age of airborne viruses like COVID) is a bad idea. I brought it to the attention of the desk attendant and she did not seem particularly phased by the news. ACAC Downtown is within walking distance of my flat/crashpad so I will go back. but I'm just hoping they either bring back the punch card or institute a program for non-residents to make life a bit easier.

The women's locker room is disgusting, it smells and there is hair all over the floor and on the shower walls and floor. The hot tub is dirty too. The locker room is way over due for an overhaul. The lockers are dirty and don't get cleaned out ever. It doesn't make sense to have kids in the women's locker room either. Have a family area for changing clothes.

You can rent shoes for $2 cash, or a little more if you pay with card. Bikes are assigned in advance, but you can change it at front desk. Now onto the class! Studio is dim lit - which is great because you don't really have to worry about anyone but yourself. Music is loud and bumpin'. The instructors are all super friendly as well and give great cues. Rides are rhythm based - so you want to try and stay on beat to maximize the workout! The best is during pushes - the mirrored wall lights up club style! Workout is well balanced with flat roads and hills, there's always a solo song and an arms workout song! I always end up sweat- I mean sparkling after class :) My favorite part of the entire Zoom experience however, is once class is over, there is an absolutely splendid tiny cold wet towel. Let me tell you, after a hard an sweaty workout, this small treat is absolutely godsend. To top it all off, there is a minty touch to the towel - no doubt a product of essential oils. Even though it's a small touch, it is HIGHLY appreciated and really refreshes! Overall, Zoom is a wonderful studio! I go via classpass, but they have student specials! Check it out!
