    This is going to be long...but I promise it will give you some clear insight hopefully into the…read moremind of. Bakersfit. I went to Bakersfit to find out if this company was for me. What I came back with knowing or not knowing about the company, how I was treated and most importantly denied pertinent information I was seeking in-person and made to feel inferior, ultimately prompted this review of them. I've included quotes as well from the conversation I had with the trainer at Union. It begins 4 weeks ago... I noticed in group pictures taken at a function what my mirror really wasn't telling me. I was really overweight! And I needed help! So I did a basic Google search of Boot Camps in Bakersfield. Bakersfit was one of the options. Because of it's convenient location to my work and home, it was the obvious choice. I checked out the website and their landing page was an overview with loud music that looped . I found it difficult to concentrate on reading because of the intensity of the music...finally I press mute. The overview page did confuse me. Were they selling a nutrition product with benefits of private gym workouts, or a private gym with benefits of nutritional education? Because I was seeking a Bootcamp experience I wasn't for purchasing nutritional products. I don't need them nor want them. But having this opinion, did it eliminate me as a fit? I hoped not. I really wanted the Bootcamp experience! The website isn't very clear by what they mean about the nutritional part of Their program. Not that I am against nutritional education! but I don't want to be sold supplements or shakes. To me pushing those kind of products are a "gimmick" I was left to wonder is their nutrition counseling based upon meal preparation at home or supplementing it with products they sell to their members. (I still don't know the answer to this question). After leaving them 3 messages on their business line during a four week timeframe and no one returning my call, passing their location on the way to work everyday, seeing the parking lot empty and lights off, I was excited finally at 6:30 pm last night to see cars in the parking lot and lights on. I just happened to be driving by. A guy who stated he was a trainer greeted me. I told him I had been trying to get ahold of someone for four weeks without success. He seemed irritated by my bringing that up and immediately said, "my name is... Your name?? ... Then "so what is it you are wanting? The trainer deliberately avoided acknowledging his or the companies failure to do a simple callback. If you don't intend to return my calls, why advertise it on your building? His next question he asked me if I had gone to their website because all of the information I needed to know was contained on the website AND people who enroll in their program purchase the program online and not in the studio. Yes, I had. It confused me that's why I am here standing in front of you. Hmmmmmm....Well sir, it's a true shame to discourage a potential client from the get-go by pointing out to them a need to get the "real information" on thewebsite. Afterall. I'm here at your studio, especially since your Facebook and your merchantCircle account encourage to do just that. After a 20 minute round and round getting nowhere conversation, about "gimmick gyms" my losing muscle in the past 5 years, and basically making me to feel under the scope...and his reference to my need to go online and check the information out, I was more confused and frustrated. Was this guy the owner...I hoped not. Because his grasp on the framework of selling his concept is thin, if so. And treating people like they are not important when they initially think that YOU are important to seek out is insulting! This trainer told me the following and I quote, "We don't have to help you." I took his words and demeanor as the following: In other words if going to the website is too hard...if clicking and making a purchase is impossible ma'am, maybe we aren't the gym for you. Do it our way or you don't get to be in our circle. It's that simple! I'm NOT going to collect payment or welcome you aboard here. Go online "We are not customer service oriented" said the trainer, in other words he said they didn't waste money to employ someone to greet people at their studio and talk about their program. The way they sell their program is online. You either get it or you don't. And they aren't wasting any time. Yes, As the trainer said EVERYONE PURCHASES OUR PROGRAMS ONLINE. " We are not like 24 Hour Fitness." You're right! 24 Hour Fitness would have in the very least greeted me warmly and wouldn't have made me feel like I was an idiot for stopping by and inquiring. There really is no crime in stopping by but that's what you made it to feel like. Bottom line: If you don't purchase the program online, you may meet up with. Mr. Resistance at the desk. Buyer beware.

    Horrible service--wasn't treated with respect. I will never consider this place-- there are so many…read moreother good ones in town.

    I've been coming to this In Shape for years! I've attended classes, did the treadmill, sat in the…read moresauna, and my little girl has stayed in the kidzone before as well. The room where they do Zumba and Bodypump is huge. The instructors are great, I attended Berto's class last night, and he was great! I can't wait to attend another Zumba class of his! The check-in staff is always so friendly. They always greet me when I walk in and say bye when I walk out. VTL training goes on right in the middle by check-in, so it is pretty loud. After a class, sometimes a friend and i like to sit at a table at the front to relax and talk, and it's hard because the VTL has their music really loud.

    Staff is not helpful. About 2 weeks ago I tried to use the message chair, I'm new to this gym, I…read morewas trying to figure out the remote but couldn't. The person at the counter kept watching me, and I'm watching her, hoping she would help me. I didn't ask and she never came over. So that's kinda on me. Today I went back to use the message chair, again not working. This time I ask the front counter. All he says is u have to reserve it. So I do. Still the chair isn't working. I go back to the counter. Straight away he says "it's not working? U have to hit the button on the wall." Woulda been nice to know all this information before I had to keep going back to the counter. And I had another incident over a locker. Just not helpful here. And the overall cleanliness isn't there. If my insurance didn't cover this place, I definitely wouldn't pay for it.
