I have done CrossFit for over two years and before that worked out at one of the bigger gyms in North liberty, regularly attending their group fitness classes. I say that to level set my experience. I guess I was expecting more of the pseudo high intensity classes that are offered at the bigger gym. You know what I am talking about. The type of class where more attention is paid to the activewear that someone is wearing as opposed to the actual workout intensity that they are putting forth. Let me tell you. The work out at versa was intense! I can honestly say that it was one of the more high intensity workouts that I have done in a long time. While it did not focus on the weightlifting aspect that I was used to from CrossFit, I found the cardio portion just as intense. Before the work out began I felt there was an adequate amount of time dedicated to stretching and warming up. While the workout was going the instructors were supportive and helpful in their coaching. While I am not a member I would not hesitate to recommend this location to anyone looking for a high-intensity workout.

I had run on (almost) the daily on my treadmill. But man... something was missing. Enter Versa Fitness. Let me rewind a minute. Yelp had an event with them a couple months ago and I have NEVER been so sore after a workout. But I had also never felt so ACCOMPLISHED. I am a sucker for a runners high -- stress melting away with elation and a decreased ability to feel pain due to the endorphins released after countless miles. But, with Versa. I'll take all the pain for the gain. (Cause trust me... there will be some pain.) After the Yelp event, I wanted to join right then and there. No joke. But with a little still at home and constantly being a mom taxi... plus the gym being ALLLLLL the way across town from me... it's just not in the cards. Yet. Anyways. Imagine my excitement when I saw Versa was offering twice a day classes online during this hot mess? AND that they were free?! Nick, Josh and Ashley are amazing to workout with. So much passion and knowledge. (And did I mention heart? The gym literally loaned almost all of their equipment out to members when this COVID-19 businesses shut them down.) Last night I enjoyed a wonderful kettlebell class with Ashley. We did three sets of four exercises -- four times. What an amazing way to destress as you quarantine! They even have body weight only options for exercises... so no equipment necessary. Thanks, Versa Fitness!

Congratulations to our July 2019 Member of the Month, Corey Turner!

They have a nice space which I understand they are moving to an even larger property - I took this as a good sign that they are growing. I didn't get to spend much time with the coaches because the classes were pretty large (I could see they we're keeping an eye on me) but what stood out was the community is very welcoming. Lots of people introducing themselves and cheering everyone on was a great way to start the day.

All coaches have an attention to detail that helps you improve your movements--whether you're going through on-ramp or you're a veteran athlete. Coaches break down the movements each class, every day (which has to get monotonous)--but I believe that's because they realize the importance of returning to the basics no matter your level of experience. CFP also does a great job of varying movements and class structure to keep you coming back.

gym is pretty decrepid, unmaintained, and fairly gross/unclean…read more Equipment (4/5 in "effort" but 2/5 in reality): While they have a decent variety equipment, the vast majority of all the equipment is partially malfunctioning or broken (list provided below). - Nearly every incline-adjustable bench is slanted to a side and are cheap versions and are unable to support heavier weights safely. - 2 sets of cables, none of the cables have equal resistance and are rickety. - strength ewuipment like belt squat are cheap versions that do not have the proper motion. - nearly all padding is tore up and the preacher bench has such old padding it feels gross to touch - awful rubber dumbells mixed with badly maintained iron dumbells - majority of plate loaded equipment is has alot of rust and not maintained - cardio equipment is decent though. Layout and Space (2/5) The layout appears to be an attempt to be a fun and different gym with each room (place used to be a racketball court), but it fails as it feels cheaply and lazily done. How the equipment is spread out makes super-setting very difficult. A scavenger hunt is needed to find plates, cable attachments, and clips. Floors are really gross and appear to rarely be cleaned, while there is what seems like a forever broken hottub in the locker room the owners seem to not care to replace or remove to spruce up the feel from decrepid to decent. 1 male bathroom has a gerry-rigged stall and 1 urinal, but gross and there is never soap or paper towels. Atmosphere (1/5): The gym doesn't foster any Atmosphere. If you go hard and push yourself, you will get shunned and many patrons are there simply to get a "feel-good" workout as there is not intensity or focus. The issues with the equipment and layout make it difficult to push yourself here. The atmosphere is also abit gross with the clientele that go. Hours: 24/7 with a phone operated entry is a positive. For any serious or semi-serious fitness or weightlifter, it's not the go-to gym. Hours and location are convenient but that is about it.

Never has this ever happened in any other establishment. We also had 2 birthday parties there that both went great! The party hosts are proper hosts, super helpful and attentive. If you are a parent of young kids you know how crucial having that help is. All the staff knows my son by sight and are always welcoming and really tolerant and patient with my AuDHD son who constantly runs into every place he isn't supposed to. We feel like family here. I haven't gone on a hectic day (intentionally) so I can't speak to the rule enforcement on those days, but I can say that I have seen the strictness vary depending on the vibe, age, and amount of kids there. I appreciate this because it's annoying to have to parent other people's older kids around safety if they are being too rowdy around the little ones. They're all still just kids, though! The only improvement they could make is adding a slide or 2, but maybe that is in the future! Who knows! The most important thing to me is the intention and advocacy I have seen in management. Keep it up!

I would like to preface this review with a statement I heard my six-year-old exclaim upon the ride…read morehome from the North Liberty pool. "Mom this is the best pool I have ever been to, My expectations were shattered and I had the most gratifying experience I have ever had at an aquatic center" On a more personal note, I can attribute the saving of my marriage to the incredible staff at the pool, the way they were watching my child while he swam rekindled my love for my family as I saw the love the guards had for the other patrons. My child had had always been troubled and I admit that I did do a great job of disciplining him, however the swift responses by the guards when my sweet boy stepped out of line were magnificent and forever changed his attitude towards authority. The only complaint I can ever possibly think of would be the concessions stand lack of soft serve ice-cream and the indoor pools lack of a hot tub, however the pool's temperature is always at an acceptable temperature so that doesn't seem to be an issue. Although the pool does not have a hot tub, the other amenities more than make up for it. The slides had my children in utter elation after their first ride. We had just finished planning out trip to Disney World, but after our trip to the pool our children insisted that they had already been to the happiest place on earth. We immediately cancelled our plane ride and plan on coming back daily. The diving boards were like no other we had ever experienced, and the ropes felt like an excursion through a tropical rainforest. Finally, the bucket. Let me tell you about the bucket. There we were, waiting as the bucket filled with water. As it started to tip, I could feel the fear, joy and excitement coming from my kids' minds. After the many gallons of water rushed over our heads, I actually had become younger. I am convinced the water at this pool comes from the fountain of youth. Another lifechanging experience I had at the pool was when my mother passed out in the parking lot, a lifeguard sprinted over, backflipped over the fence, and immediately, with just their presence, resituated her, and healed her broken hip, she also appeared much younger. The incredible management at the pool is easily seen with their swift response to any and all complaints, even those coming from the Facebook group "North Liberty Moms" Which if I am being honest, paints the picture of the pool and their staff in an unaccreted and unfriendly light. The PH level of the pool is so incredible, I thought I was swimming in filtered drinking water, the water felt refreshing on my skin and took away all my wrinkles. Strangely enough the scar I had had since a child miraculously healed with just two minutes in the water due to the pools incredible healing properties, and the incredible watchful eyes of the lifeguards. I could write a book about all the incredible experience I have had at the pool. however, my kids are already begging to go back so I must leave now to take them, even though it will be a long three-hour drive.

Only complaint I have is that there were some young teenagers rough housing in the lazy river area. At one point they had my 5 yr old nephew trapped under their floats. The life guards were told about this and they said they only break it up if someone is being hurt. So a 5 yr old trapped under a float by rough housing teens in the lazy river is allowable behavior? I think NOT! At the front desk I asked about a veteran discount and was told "I don't think we do that". Please educate your staff and PLEASE honor the spirit of a "lazy river."
