The moment I walked through the doors of Bloom a couple of months ago and we greeted by Jen at the…read morefront desk I felt like I was at home, a safe place. What I love about this studio that sets them apart from others is the variety of classes offered for all levels and types of people. Some of my favorite classes so far are: power flow yoga ( a MUST take class with instructor Bethany) , multi flow vinyasa, barre (take Kimies class!!!!), HIIT (Pattie is motivating) and low body blast. And I haven't even tried them all yet! There are a multitude of workshops that happen every month, from meditation, to restorative yoga, to yoga with your children, to focusing on healing just one part of your body. They even do ugly sweater yoga at a brewery every year! ALSO, there is a wellness studio on the second level with doctors of natural medicine, physical therapy, mental therapy. And Verbena!! A spa center where they offer massage, acupuncture, a salt room... it just keeps getting better. I haven't gotten a massage yet, but it's on my "to-do" list. Really tho.... can you ask for anything else? I seriously recommend anyone young or old, male or female to check out Bloom... who knows you might find what has been missing in your life! I know I did.

I also enjoy the variety of classes. I am more of a traditional yogi, but I like that there are also Barre method, pilates, and weights classes in the schedule. I just bought a month membership, so it will definitely provide for an all-inclusive workout! The studio is immaculate and spacious. It has a small, family feel, and yet it is run like an organized business. I am a long-time yogi, and I am very excited to bring my experience and business here!

The Fitness Center for women is local, small gym that's currently moving to a new location…read more Generally, the staff is very pleasant and polite, and they help you with everything, take free measurements for you and all. The trainers are VERY nice and polite. The owner, however, is anything but. I signed up twice --- the first time before I had gone to college, and had enough free time to commit to a schedule. It worked out fine until I had to cancel due to financial problems (I enrolled in college and could no longer afford to be in college and to afford the $41.48 membership fee, so I had to cancel.) I did this legitimately, by paying the $99 cancellation fee after about 5-6 months. After that, since I was in college, I did not attend the gym for about 2-3 years, until this summer when I had about 3 months to sign up again, this May (my new contract actually began 5/29/13). So, I thought fine, I can afford this until I get a stable income after graduating college (I am graduating this year.) However, as the months passed on, I noticed another charge on my bank account for $46.59 in ADDITION to the $41.48 which was already taken out. I was fully aware of the yearly $25.00 fee, which had already came out, but this was something else. This extra charge was explained to me (much later, I might add) and the staff of the bank as an "insufficient funds" charge. The $20 "insufficient funds charge" + $41.48 - $46. I called the gym the very day I noticed the charge, and immediately asked to speak to the owner, however she was on vacation at the moment and they said I needed to wait for a week until she got back. This was not acceptable due to the fact I had missing funds in my account at the moment, and I could not wait for the owner to sort it out with me. I am a college student and need EVERY cent in my account, and I do not account for such errors like "double billing" and other things that would cause my account to go into the negative. I had to call my bank and file a chargeback for the extra amount of the $46. Bank of America explained this charge as a merchant error, and the bank refunded me the amount. The gym owner very rudely stated when she called today, that she disputed the charge against her company, because it was "not her error" and said that the bank is going to retract the refunded amount from my bank. The owner, Kristie, was VERY rude and didn't seem to be very understanding of the problem. She insisted that she "did nothing wrong", and when I mentioned i'd like to cancel out of pure frustration and because I was moving out of town soon (and would be signing up with a much cheaper gym) in addition to all the trouble this has caused me with the bank (with overdraft fees and calling both the bank AND the gym to

I joined the Fitness Center For Women last June after having an annual physical that left me…read morefeeling very upset about my physical condition and weight. The nurse practitioner recommended it to me, and I have no regrets at all about joining -- it has been a wonderful experience. When you start, they evaluate your fitness level, and design a workout for you, also spending an hour of time with you making sure you know how to set up the machines and how to do each exercise without hurting yourself. I worked out on my own mostly over the summer and also tried the hula hoop class with Tanya. Not only is it a very fun class -- it is a good workout that raises your heart rate and makes you sweat. This Fall, I joined the Diva Boot Camp. I am far from a Diva, but I have found a great group of women who support each other with making it through some tough workouts and do so consistently. Kristie, the gym owner, leads the camp, and she keeps the workouts varied and interesting. She is encouraging and tough all at the same time. I was new to the area, and this has really made me feel like I have a community of people who are becoming friends and who are striving together to meet their goals. Next June, when I go back for my annual physical, I suspect it will be a very different experience. For anyone who has not tried an "all women's gym" and is curious -- I highly recommend it. It just takes the edge off and let's you focus on your workouts and not worry about whether you look presentable. There is not a lot of vanity -- it's a place where women can work out and feel at ease whatever your size or fitness level. Go for it -- you have nothing to lose (except a few pounds) ; )
