    Perfect place for teaching kids to swim. Our 6 year loves it here. The staff and instructors are always so nice and accommodating.

    first off, i want to highlight my experience with Toni, one of the personal trainers. i came in…read moreand he was doing a 1 minute plank = 5 minutes of stretching session. max 3 minutes. he displayed professionalism throughout my session with him. i've been a member at life time in the past in another state and had a great experience. this location is just as good, if not better. staff are friendly and helpful and the gym has a lot of amenities. the weight room can get packed during peak hours but they are closed until midnight which is nice for anyone who chooses to workout late. they have towels, shampoo, mouth wash, hair spray, hair dryers, shaving cream and razors, and deodorant in the locker rooms. the price is definitely worth it if you use the amenities.

    Very disappointing experience at Life Time Athletic…read more One of the biggest issues is the complete lack of enforcement around the outdoor hot tub. The posted rules clearly state that the hot tub is for ages 12 and older, yet there are regularly groups of children who appear to be well under that age using it. Every now and then a lifeguard comes over and asks about their age, but by now the kids seem to know exactly what to say: "We're 12." The lifeguard accepts the answer and leaves. What's even more frustrating is that after the lifeguard walks away, I've heard some of these kids laughing about the fact that nobody can do anything about it. The issue isn't simply that children are in the hot tub. Personally, I wouldn't have a problem with kids enjoying it. The problem is the lack of supervision and enforcement. On numerous occasions I've seen children eating in or around the hot tub, with pieces of food ending up in the water. It's unsanitary and completely unacceptable. I don't know when management and the lifeguard staff stopped caring, but when you're charging some of the highest membership fees in the area, members should expect much better standards. Rules should either be enforced consistently or changed altogether. Another disappointing change is the replacement of many of the water fountains with units that don't clearly show the status of the water filter. Members should be able to easily see whether a filter is functioning properly or needs replacement. For a company that constantly markets itself as being focused on member wellness and health, this seems incredibly ironic. Life Time positions itself as a premium fitness club, but the declining attention to cleanliness, rule enforcement, and member experience makes it harder and harder to justify the premium price.

She does an…read moreexcellent job of thoughtfully planning workouts that took my physical issues into account, making every session both safe and effective...much more so than other trainers I have had through the years. She's a great coach; kept me on track, always cheerful, positive, and motivating. This became something to look forward to, instead of dreading it, making it very helpful in meeting my goals. Membership here does require a long-term commitment and swimming around full team schedules. I like the personal feel of the gym; the lap pool is warm enough for me; and the outdoor area is GREAT for families. It's not a new facility, but the equipment is well maintained and there are a variety of exercise classes.

She flat out told me no. That basically have to pay almost $1,000 for their membership and the about $54 to $200 a month in addition to. They don't just allow people to just sign up and pay per water aerobics classes package or per class. I am trying to find places close to home that do indoor and outdoor water aerobics to be active. And not having luck. But don't go to Granite Falls Swim & Athletics in Rolesville! What a joke and way too expensive!!

    This used to be a wonderful place to take my daughter for summer camps and teacher workday camps…read more She started at Flour Power when she was about 2-1/2 in the classes they had for littles, then started going there for camps when she started school and she's 13 now. This year things have really changed there for the worse...there are WAY too many kids in the space and almost the entire staff turned over. I've been debating about no longer going there after this summer is over, and this morning was the last straw. I dropped my daughter off and there were 2-3 staff people in the front kitchen and NO ONE acknowledged us or greeted my daughter. This is really sad and insulting. I realize the staff were busy but nothing should stand in the way of greeting a customer and making them feel welcomed if you want them to return. If they don't realize someone is coming in because there is too much chaos, maybe they need to tie bells on the door.

    This business is located in north hills so make sure that you arrive a little early in case it is…read morehard to find parking. The studio is very colorful with lots of decor and several tables and chairs in the front of the business. Aprons are also provided. I heard about the adult chef series from the owner Debbie at the north hills block party. She was really nice and excited about this event. At the chef series event she told us that they had just started the adult cooking classes about 6 months ago and that they are so much fun. For today's event they had a special food and wine pairing with Total Wine. The Wine Steward, Nathaniel, recommended certain wines that would go well with the items that we prepared this evening. He was very knowledgeable and funny. He also gave us coupons for future purchases at Total Wine. This was my first times at a cooking studio so I thought that each person or group that came together would prepare all of the recipes but each table ended up making one of the 3 recipes. This ended up working out well because the two hours would not have been long enough for everyone to do all of the recipes. Our table ended up making the southern cornbread but since it was a quick recipe we also assisted with the Butternut Squash/Apple & Pear Soup. The last table made the Spicy White Bean Chicken Chili. The food was really good and filling. I thought that the chili was going to be really spicy because it had green chili peppers but it had the perfect amount of heat. I didn't know what to expect from the soup but it had great flavor. The cornbread was not bad but our table thought that it was missing something. The butter that was provided helped. The wine tasting occurred while our food was cooking. It started off well but then when a few of us left to finish the soup we never really got back on track with it. I enjoyed hearing Debbie tell us about the past and future adult chef series classes and the children's classes. We also enjoyed being able to meet and interact with so many cool people at our table. Debbie and her staff were very helpful providing us with utensils, drinks, directions, etc. We had a great time!
