| - I have been at this gym for about 18 months.
The zumba classes with Ondria are the BEST! I would give that class more than 5 stars easily. The only problem is that it gets very crowded.
I really enjoy working out here. In general, the people are nice. If I am not in a group class, I pretty much keep to myself, but none of the other members are ever rude or bother me. The main reasons I go here are the location and the fitness classes - both are great.
I do have 3 BIG problems:
1) Not necessarily the personal trainers (they have been quite friendly and helpful) but the managers of the personal trainers have been (In my experience) Jerks. I have seen an extremely high turnover in the trainers and now I realize why, the management pushes this "sell sell sell" attitude which is horrible for the people working out in the gym. This burly, red faced, bald man was so skeezy yesterday that I felt like I was in a back alley used car lot. I couldn't deal with how pushy he was. They tend to tell you they have a deal that is about to expire, but that happens all the time. It is just a line. I will never speak to another personal trainer there again because I don't want to get in another situation close to the one I experienced. This is a huge problem and I know that I am not the only one that has had a negative experience with this.
2) This gym is WAY too crowded. The parking lot is WAY too crowded. I circle forever to find a spot. I need to leave early just to get parking before a class. I wish that they would stop taking memberships to better the quality for their existing members. I like to work out when I go to the gym, not sit around and wait or get run over in the parking lot.
3) The equipment is broken quite often. Treadmills, stair machines, you name it. There are quite a few good ones, but a higher than acceptable amount are broken or make an annoying sound. I feel like this place is so into their bottom line that they don't want to improve the equipment. Some other locations have TVs on the treadmills!
