Excellent staff, however the higher ups don't care enough about 1.0 members to schedule classes…read moreduring the popular times. At least we used to have a 7 AM option on Mondays now they've pushed their 1.0 to 6 AM. Super frustrating to see their higher level 7 AM class with seven openings and their 9 AM class with seven open reformer while we remain on a very low scheduling, priority. Club Pilates management does not care about their 1.0 who work. Buyer beware!!

Hooray!! Thanks to MaZi, I've lost 17 lbs so far :p…read more I started going to MaZi Dance in April this year, so it's been almost 3 months... from two-three classes a week till six classes a week, you can tell how much I love this place. Having a wedding coming up (oh well... still 8 months to go), I decided to lose all the weight I gained during dating my fiancé ;) I started working out in Feb this year and originally just played with elliptical in my building - since I am paying assessment, why should I pay extra for gym? Of course, I got bored... at the same time, a friend of mine started going to MaZi, and that's when I fell in love with this place. Most importantly, Z-Cardio instructors - Karen, Nickie, Siobhan and others are all super energetic and enthusiastic! As each class approaching its end, I become all sweaty and start to wear the "you-owe-me-a-million-dollar" face, but the instructors are still smiling and cheering people up! Guess that's why I can never be a good instructor lol About a month ago, I started their Ballet classes :) Experience with Liz and Marisol has been perfect as well. Why I don't go to other BBB classes? Because I don't own a mat XD but I'm thinking about getting one.

As a dance noob, I thought that I'd try to dive head first into a dance fitness class. I had heard…read moremany good things about MaZi from some friends and thought I'd buy a 5-class Groupon to test it out (at a $20 value, it's a steal!). I loved it! The dance instructor that taught the noon class I took (Alex) was incredibly welcoming to people with a variety of dance experience (in my case, none LOL). I had struggled at first to get the hang of the moves, but eventually I was able to keep up to some extent and get a nice sweat going! I would highly recommend trying MaZi Dance if you are looking for a very fun and active way to exercise :)

This is my first time doing aerial fitness and fitness is definitely happening. This class was fun…read moreand very different from what I usually do. I was there for a private birthday party which I really enjoyed because we had the whole studio to ourselves. If you're looking for a fun interactive activity this is definitely something to try.

She gave me a quick tutorial on what would be the main resting positions of the class. I feel like the class wasn't a super sweaty workout but it's one my body will feel tomorrow. I worked out muscles I didn't know existed. When I'm in Chicago and in South Loop I will make sure I can take her class. She was great and her playlist was perfection!

In town for a few days and needed a gym that offered day passes…read more The process to obtain a Day Pass was easy and the front desk was very helpful . The gym is much better than the large chain gym. Very good locker room amenities and a decent gym floor layout. Is it for serious Bodybuilders or Powerlifters ? Not the vibe here. Overall , I would use this facility again even though it's a bit pricey for a Day Pass.

Great first visit to FFC! I took a Pilates class with Bree…read moreand definitely left with that satisfying "good hurt" feeling, if you know, you know! The gym is clean and well-organized, which is a big plus for me, especially since large gyms can sometimes seem cluttered and confusing. The staff was friendly and helpful. I can't say enough good things about this place.

I think the 3.5 star average is a bit too low, but there are some improvements that are needed…read more I overall enjoyed it. Barre Code overall is such a great workout, and I love its variety of classes and encouraging instructors. Mallory was encouraging and does a great job. I don't like that we have to bring keys with us into the studio; the keyless lockers in the River North location are better IMHO. There is also no cell service. The studios are very small - at least mine was. This made the class a bit frustrating insofar as I was worried I would be kicking my neighbors. I wish some of the people were told to move more to the front to spread out. The space is already too small for the amount of people who signed up, and jockeying to find a spot is frustrating. Being nervous about encroaching on someone's space or, worse yet, hitting them is anxiety provoking, and I don't want unnecessary anxiety when I'm trying to do a great workout (who would?). I would also recommend turning the lights down a bit in the studio - other locations do, and it feels a bit cooler!

I was disappointed with the club. I was a member for a few months with a good deal and had planned…read moreto come back in the winter if there's another good deal. The advertising for non member events are very restrictive and former members are excluded from non member events. I was informed over the phone by Jason and I think that its false advertising that its open to non members with unwritten requirements. There are some good deals in the winter and the gym was clean but once you are not a member, some of the staff do not appear to be very friendly or have customer service skills. I guess they don't want my business or return business again. I want to be part of a club where the staff is friendly and helpful whether or not I am a member.

This review is for the Adult classes, specifically the ballet class. When I first started going it…read morewas a monthly fee for 2 classes of your choice. It then moved to 1 class for the monthly fee. This is a little pricey considering the fees for the other studios in the area that offer adult classes. If you took ballet as a child and want to get back into it and grow, I would not recommend this studio. The training of the teachers they select for this class is wishy washy. Sometimes they have teachers that are professionals or former professional dancers, which is great. Sometimes they have teachers that trained as a dancer so they took ballet classes, but ballet isn't their thing, or in the case of 1 person they would use to sub doesn't even like ballet. I signed up for ballet. I don't want a hip hop fusion or jazz, but ballet. There doesn't seem to be any mentoring of the younger teachers so they can grow and develop. I don't see the younger students exhibiting studio etiquette. Also not sure if it's even taught to them. When I was a young student, when the class ended, you needed to gather your things and leave and the class helpers made sure you were with your parent/guardian. There's a lot of lingering so the next class starts very late, but still ends on time, so we are cheated out of time and money. They also need to be more transparent on their money practices. They would sometimes randomly cancel class or breaks in the middle of the month, with no mention of giving a credit unless you specifically call or email to inquire. If you don't inquire, they have no intentions on offering a remedy.

Good dance studio. Good teachers. Very sympathetic to adult dancers by making accomodations for…read moreany physical issues. Problems with the studio - no locker rooms, they turned them into storage it looks like, very small waiting areas/hallways with kids' bookbags everywhere, you have to bring your coat/belongings into the dance studio because no lockers and hang your stuff on the bar because ants will crawl into it. It takes 30 extra days after you cancel your membership so they can charge you one more time.
