Solid class structure, a decent amount of colored belts and nice clean facility. For reference, I am a purple belt under Jeff Messina out of Revolution Dojo in Houston, Tx, I'd recommend you stop by to see these guys if you're in the area. I travel a lot for work and have been to multiple gyms and can say this spot is legit.

The coaches are knowledgeable, helpful, and always there for the fighters and clients. We have many people who participate in competition MMA, kickboxing, and jiu jitsu, but we also have a large body of individuals who come for the fitness classes we put on. Everybody is family at infinity and you can feel the love and support from the staff and clients during every class and workout!

My kids have gained confidence a hundred fold and the instructors are amazing at meeting each of my kids where they are to help them develop both physically and intellectually. I started training well after my kids started and now we train and play together! Even if martial arts is only planned to be a season of life, your kids and family will benefit for a lifetime by joining this group of amazing instructors.

I appreciate the other lessons that are built in as well during the kids classes. These discussions address a wide range of topics from personal responsibility to bullying to academics.

I have been shocked at how hard it has to find an indoor pool that is open year around ! Ozark has…read morea beautiful facility but their swim program is rarely functioning. Nixa's pool has been under construction forever and even when it is open it is outside. Republic is outside too. Enter the good old YMCA. Their swim program is well managed in the hands is Marcella. Their program is positive and dependent and the swim team price is very manageable. I am so happy with the swimming I haven't even begun to check out their amazing classes.

I love the Downtown YMCA. I was a member here when I was in college in the late 80s and am a member…read moreagain after moving back to Springfield a few years ago. A friendly atmosphere. They have fitness classes daily and open swim times in their basement pool. It's really great the way it is divided into different levels depending on what you are looking for. Most of the weight machines plus free weights and indoor rock climbing are in 2nd floor. The 3rd floor has a track which goes around the entire upstairs and mainly has cardio equipment. The weights include the only four way neck machine I have seen at a commercial gym. They also have a deadlift platform, power racks, pull-up machine, dumbbells to 120 lbs. Plus they have too many extras to mention. It's a great place that does a lot of good for the community with kids activities and a true health focus. I live close enough to walk and feel very fortunate to live so near. Highly recommend!

I am also a Silver Sneaker member but today I came with my granddaughters who are out of school. The older ladies working the front desk acted like it was such an inconvenience to wait on us. Then proceeded to let us know that none of the amenities for children are available until after 4 so that older members can enjoy it. Even the lifeguards were grumpy! School is out and kids should be able to enjoy the facilities! Isn't that what parks are for? What a shame! I have family that retired from the park board and they are appalled too. I was also disgusted by the restrooms and changing room. They smelled of urine terribly!

From what I'm told this is an ongoing issue. There are instructors who would cover classes if childcare would open earlier, but the park board will not open even 30-minutes earlier to accommodate their best instructor. Obviously they don't care about their paying customers.

He has started to really try and focus more and use his self control. They really make him feel good about himself, always coming at him with positivity and high 5s. One thing that I really love is not only are they welcoming to all, they talk to each person at their level. If they are trying to tell my son something, they get down to his level and talk in a way he can understand instead of talking to him like he should know what he is supposed to do. The senseis are very patient and kind to him and make it very fun. He is always ready for class!
