They'll let you try a workout for free, and if you like it, you can do a 30 day unlimited workouts for $30.00 trial session. I've been twice now, and have already cancelled my Y membership. The workouts are challenging and push you hard, but (a) are not impossible, and (b) you're finished in 30 minutes, so if you just keep pushing time goes by fast. The variety of the workouts are key. Great location right off Park Street bear Il Desco and they interior is big, airy, and the equipment is new and clean. Plenty of times during the day from morning to lunch to after work. They have showers too so you don't go back to work smelling like a Wookiee if you hit a lunch workout.

When I came to First Coast, I had been doing CrossFit for almost 3 years and been a member of three…read moreother boxes (CrossFit gyms). Four years on, my daily workouts out at First Coast would be the daily highlight of my workweek routine. I recently moved abroad so I am no longer a member, and unfortunately for me, I think it will be hard to find a gym that I will hold in such high esteem again. You do not need to know how to do any CrossFit movement to get started here, just a curiosity and willingness to give it a try. The coaches and people here will welcome you in. I'm grateful for how my fitness progressed at First Coast, but also, possibly more so, how I felt like I was part of a community of like-minded and caring people in Jacksonville.

The handles on some of the equipment is wore out a bit and quite a few locker handles are broken but that's not that big of a deal. The real issue is that I shouldn't have to go into the toilet and see shit stains on the floor and around the rim of the toilet it's absolutely disgusting. This isn't a one time thing this has been happening for ages, the workers aren't trying to clean it up, I can understand not wanting to have to clean filth like this so often but c'mon it's part of ur job at the end of the day. Shit everywhere all the time if it wasn't bc of the toleitsthis would be a 4.5 stars for me.

My family and I have been Y members for nearly 3 years until just a couple of weeks ago when we…read moremoved away. I unequivocally and 100% recommend the Y for a family. Staff are all generally all helpful. Front door staff try to be quick. The service desk can be quick, but lines do occur since there is generally only one or two people working it. The KidZone staff are the true gems of the Y. My daughter loved all the caring folks who watched her daily for a couple of hours while we worked out. I cannot tell you how great they are. I never used the training staff, but they were helpful when needed. The one staff member that completely sucks is the skinnier old guy with the grey beard. That guy has the ick and tried to shoo me away from equipment when I was working out on it just because he wanted it. I politely let him know the equipment would be available when I finished. The Y activities for our daughter were really great. During our time at the Y we participated in an Easter Event, Daddy Daughter Dance, Wellness Days, Christmas events, and more. This really helped us feel part of the community and I made some great adult friends. The programming staff are stars at their job. The indoor pool is amazing. My daughter went from zero swimming skills to being completely able to swim alone at 3.5 years of age. The program pool is heated and made teaching our daughter how to swim a great experience. Parking can be difficult at the Y if you come in the afternoon. Saturday mornings were also another time you would want to avoid the parking situation. It would be great if they paved the other lot and added lines. It was the Wild West down there. Additionally, folks will dent your car and not care or leave a note. Parking here with a nice car is a big issue especially if you want to avoid dozens of small dents and chips. The actual weight lifting area is perfectly fine. If you are someone that likes classic weight lifting gyms, this really isn't the place to join. You can get a great workout in, but I found folks lacked gym etiquette knowledge. Same for the running track upstairs where there are running directions for each day. The amount of folks that cannot read directions is a bit appalling. Additional areas that are great are the full sized basketball court with 6 hoops and the playground outside. I found time to play basketball every week. The one downside is no basketball league for adults and unequal time given to basketball compared to other sports. I would have loved a volleyball drop in too. Considering how popular volleyball is in the area, it would have made sense to add. Overall, the Y is amazing. There are many great staff members and many great members that made coming here a wonderful experience.

I will say, the attendance here is pretty low, so hopefully they are able to get the numbers up in their classes.

Parking is a breeze, I was initially worried the strip mall style parking would be a hassle. The studio is a bit tough to find your first visit though, it's on an alleyway between strip mall style businesses. I'll be back soon!

The community is incredibly encouraging and welcoming. The relationships established here go beyond the studio and I feel honored to know our members. When I first started with OTF I could only power walk on the tread and I had no clue about proper form with weights. After 5 months I am able to hold a run for 30 minutes which felt out of reach for me previously. The coaches make sure that I'm lifting correctly so I don't injure myself and so that I see results for my efforts. The coaches and the team genuinely care about not only the members' goals but their overall wellbeing. It is such a nurturing community to be apart of.
