    Our daughter does private swim lessons with Sydney. She is great! Our daughter loves going as Sydney always keeps it fun while she is teaching. Best swim instructor she has had so far! She has made mountains of progress in comparison to our time with swimtastics. The girls locker room is always nice and clean as well, which we much appreciate.

    I’ve been going here consistently for over a year and a half. Very spacious. Really wish they had a hack squat or a pendulum squat machine. Replace the current squat machine that’s out of order every other week with one of those. And more stairmasters!!

    The gym and facilities itself are pretty nice steam room and sauna super hot. The only thing that’s weird is there’s creepy old men walking around butt naked for no apparent reason whatsoever. Maybe a few wear a towel signs would be helpful.

    nice facility and gyms but i’m so absolutely fed up with the parking ramp. you have to take a slip and get a sticker for it at the front desk which allows you to get out of the ramp. does it work? most days no!! then i’m stuck holding up a line and either have to pay a fee to get out or sit and try to call the ramp teller. it’s been this way for years, you’d think they would just figure out how to use your membership card to open the ramp
