| - First off, if you're interested in fitness, real, honest to god get-in-shape, look good naked, fitness, this place is not for you. If you are looking to markedly improve your cardiovascular/respiratory endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, coordination, agility, balance, *and* accuracy, this place is not for you.
Their free weights are stuffed in what some other fitness clubs would consider a closet. If you know what a clean and jerk is, and you go to this club, you're in The Village's 1%. Even the pool was a disappointment. It's not for laps, it's for moms to sun and read magazines while their kids splash and fart.
Don't get me wrong. You *can* get into shape here. But you *can* get into shape in your backyard. The cost of joining up could buy you a great set of Olympic weights, a pull up bar, new shoes, a weight vest, a kettle bell or two, a jump rope... But you wouldn't be considering a club if you wanted to get fit in your backyard and buy all your own equipment.
Now, if you're into tennis, this place will accommodate. I think half it's footprint is set aside for courts.
If you're into pretty girls in full makeup wearing their brand new Lulu Lemon Yoga Pants (and believe me, it's ALMOST worth joining for this particular scenery), there's plenty of that. If you're into orange dudes who won't sweat because it'll muss their hair and they simply spend toooo much on product to deal with that, then this place is for you. If you dig stepping on french fries the aforementioned farty kids dropped on the floor while chasing each other and screaming while wearing a full set of Under Armor compression gear that costs an average person's car payment, you'll dig this joint. If you're into a place to pretend you're into fitness and "be seen" then you should join up tomorrow. If you want to the cashier at AJ's to notice your latte cup with "The Village" emblazoned across the front while you buy your parakeet four cases of Fiji water to bathe in, then this place is for you.
There are some people here who are in great shape. There are some people who are flat out awesome to chat with. The customer service is nice. I would club baby seals for some of the girls here to star opposite me in a romantic comedy. However, all of the positive aspects of this place are not involved with fitness. They're recreational, hang out, be part of a scene type of pluses. If you're willing to pay for that, then saddle up partner. But if you want to be taken seriously when you say you "work out", by people who actually do, then you don't work out at The Village.
