What do you like about our programs and activities?

You have cutting edge equipment to exercise with. The instructors are helpful. I have been attending the Active Older Adults Classic which I have been thoroughly enjoying. My suggestions are to purchase a few more sets of weights, replace the ties with bands and supply the instructors with microphones. I wear hearing aids and it is difficult at times to hear Barb because of the echo in the gym.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

Childcare is great and the reason we signed up to begin with as it’s the only gym around that does child watch for infants under 1. I do however wish they were more strict on a sick rule. Kids that are sick should not be allowed to go. We haven’t participated in any events other than Santa and that was great! We will sign up and participate in much more in the future

Nice atmosphere and people .

It would suit me if people would stay off their phones and just enjoy the moment when working out !
A sign ‘ NO PHONE ZONE’ would help .
