The facility is great! I love the exposed brick, rooftop pool and rock climbing wall in the front. Super friendly staff and this gym is very clean & nice. Best gym in the area!

Everyone should take Dance Power Groove with David Arias on Wednesday nights 8:15 to 9:15! Your membership is nothing if you've never taken his class ! :) he will kick your butt but it's worth it :)

Melody Legge

Personal TVs on each cardio machine with cable. Cell phone holder with old iPhone charger. Bring the adaptor and you can still charge your new iPhone.

Angie Osmanski
