But charged for the full hour under the senior therapist. Prior to starting, I had requested on several occasions statement/bills for services I had since I was out of network and wanted to pay as I go so as to not rack up a huge bill at the end. I had done this through email with the administration and with the front desk. I was informed that statements/bills were issued at the end of the month. I also was asked for a credit card too. Next thing I know, my credit card is charged and I have no bill of service. Supposedly, my account stated that I requested no bill or statement. Patently incorrect. Long story short, I was disappointed with the business model and to some extent the care I was given at Performance Optimal.

I walked by this gym for several months before deciding to Join. I have to admit this has been one…read moreof the best decisions I have made. The classes are taught by expert instructors who love what they do and are great motivators. It was my first time taking a Barre, Pilates, Yoga and Zumba class. It was easy to follow the instructors. I learned as you continue taking the classes you develop a stronger core and are able to work out more effectively. Lifetime gym is immaculate with a variety of amenities including a Sauna, Eucalyptus Steam Room and an outdoor Pool. They have classes for everyone including active older adults (seniors). The membership is not cheap but it's worth every penny. A great investment for a healthy lifestyle.

The cafe, outdoor space, and workout areas are all well kept. They have studios and class space as well. You can grab food or a drink in the cafe on the main floor. If you go upstairs, you'll find the spacious workout area and outdoor pool. The outdoor pool is open to residents all of the time, and it's open to members during the week. I love it here! I'll definitely be back again soon. What a great work out space!

The bootcamp classes are challenging and will help get you into shape no matter how athletic you are today. All of the teachers- I took classes with Ellis and Reggie- are extremely patient and supporting. They take the time to make sure you are doing the exercises properly, and give custom workouts even within one class to make sure everyone is appropriately challenged based on their fitness level. Last but not least, you will no doubt become great friends with the other bootcampers. It's a supportive group of people which is just about the best motivation you can have to get out of the house and make it to the gym. The unlimited monthly class pass is the best deal and is worth every penny. Do yourself a favor and join this gym!

I started training with Madison two months after my third baby was born. After having 3 pregnancies…read morein 5 years, my body was NOT feeling right. I had lost a ton of muscle, added a bunch of fat, and my posture had suffered. Initially I planned to train with Madison for 6 weeks to get myself back on track, but it's now 5 months later and I still see her weekly. I can not believe the impact that slow motion strength training has had on my body. I have gotten so much of my strength back and even developed muscles that have been neglected all of my life, which has enabled me to add some cardio and vinyasa yoga. My posture has gotten significantly better despite the fact that I'm still nursing and work at a computer most of the time, thanks to the series of exercises that Madison designs for me. I've lost almost 20 pounds, and definitely converted a bunch of fat to muscle. My butt and thighs are so much tighter than they used to be (sorry if that's TMI!) All in all, it's an incredible workout in that the results are very noticeable and the time commitment is tiny. That said, you DO have to be dedicated. Madison will ask you to push yourself really, really hard. Sometimes in the middle of workouts, all I can think is "Why am I doing this???" But then I remind myself that I just need to give it my all for 30 minutes, which really isn't that much. By the time I finish the workout, I'm absolutely exuberant as I walk out of the gym feeling strong and like I'm standing taller and more confidently. Usually I'm really sore for a day or two and then I start getting really excited for my next session....it's addictive to feel as good as it makes you feel :)

Koko FitClub in Darien is by far the BEST fitness club around. In my 8 years of living in…read moreFairfield County, I've belonged to the expensive gym in Noroton Heights, two $10/month gyms in Norwalk, and the community-based center in Darien. None of these 4 options offered me the motivation or structure to keep my commitment for more than 2 months at a time. I've been an active Koko member - going 3-4 times per week -- for a year and it's changed my life. I've not only dropped 25+ pounds but I ran my first half-marathon in May. Strength training programs are individualized for you, and each machine will lead you through your customized workout. It IS like having your own personal trainer, but automated, which is even better! There are also 15 minute cardio programs (on both the treadmill and elliptical) that are both quick to do yet intense enough to give you a complete workout. And, for those of you who are driven by data, each member can log on and access their workout history, track their strength gain, eBMI, and lean muscle mass progress. Koko even offers nutritional planning and menu options, based on your individual profile. Oh, and the place is immaculate, the staff is supportive and friendly, as are the other members. If you're looking for a new fitness club that will keep you engaged while also fitting into your busy lifestyle (did I mention that I'm a full-time working mom of 2 little boys?!?), you should definitely head into Koko and check it out.
