I want to give some much needed feedback to LA fitness's corporate office in regards to a drastic change at the club located on 7365 N. VIA PASEO DEL SUR SCOTTSDALE, AZ 85258.
Recently, a large area of the gym which was commonly used by countless paying members was roped off and plastered with signs restricting it's use to trainers and their "pro results" clients only. This is the largest area of the gym that was used for stretching and floor exercises. This location has always been extremely busy and any floor area is valuable. With this change, the gym has been further constricted for the benefit of few and at an added risk of injury to the majority of members due to the closer proximity we're restricted to exercise in.
I'm not quite sure what prompted the drastic change to the location and the creation of a "second" class of membership to the gym that touts it's community feel; I certainly don't feel like a part of a community. When I asked the sales manager, Griffin, about the change he said, "it was directed by corporate" and he didn't have any skin in the game in regards to the change.
I hope you'll reevaluate this location's change, or like they say I believe members will vote with their wallet and leave to greener pastures.
