My aunt explained that my father has cancer and gets confused, as well as she does not know how to use a phone well. She asked if they could have a paper copy to fill out or if someone could help them, they were told no. To pay that amount of money for a membership, and not get any sort of help for an elder, as well as a sick man, is insane. Disappointed to say the least.

Just go, ladies. Seriously. Just go…read more I am not a go to the gym kind of girl. Rather I am a drive past the gym as fast as possible kind of girl. However, since I am also a girl of a certain age, it's time to get serious about living a healther life, for crying out loud. This place is really special. Especially if you're gym-phobic, like me. First of all, it's only ladies, of all ages, stages, and levels of fitness, and the members are lovely -- supportive and friendly. Second, there's only a few of us there at a time -- this is part of the whole concept -- lots of hands on attention by the very skilled and caring staff. And they really are the best part of the whole deal. Tiz, Kevin, Dave -- they are so committed to each of us and such delightful human beings it's a powerful motivator. I look forward to seeing them each time I go -- reallly! I am physically able to do things I didn't think possible, becasue they genuinely can discern what I'm capable of. They push us, because they know what they're doing. And it makes a difference. I've been there just over a month and I really love it, and can't sing their praises enough. So -- just go.

It's very possible that this is classic January busy-ness, but if you want a less packed gym, I'd recommend checking the app to see the crowd level. About 90% of the gym goers at the time were men so the women's locker room was very empty and all showers were available (4 showers which is more than some other locations). Overall the locker room was clean and the facility was nice, although the locker area was quite dark. The bathroom had some wet paper towels scattered around which was odd since there was no dispenser for them, but was otherwise relatively clean.

I'm actually super impressed with this PF. Maybe not the staff, but certainly the layout of the…read moreequipment and the space available. We visited on a Thursday evening at 6pm and the place was busy but not too packed yet. This was our first time at this location and we wanted to change our home gym but the lady at the desk was confused and gave us some bizarre information on how to go about that. We just checked in and carried on. The cardio equipment is set up in 2 rows spanning the length of the gym and there appears to be enough for everyone regardless of how busy they are. There is an area with free weights and actual squat racks with space to lay a mat out and workout. There is another area for abs and more free weights in that section. The equipment is laid out in a way that makes ideal sense based on muscle group (I've seen other PFs where machines are just haphazardly placed around) so this was a delight to see. At about 630pm the place was so busy most of the equipment was in use and there wasn't a single spot on the floor to stretch so I hopped back on the cardio equipment. After our workouts we hit up the Black Card Spa zone - I am so glad they have 3 cryo massage chairs. Those are great post-workout! All in all a great gym and I'm really glad its so close to our house.

I rarely leave reviews but wanted to in the support of the best teachers and care providers we ever…read morecould have asked for in our community. Erolynn in Room 4 has been an instrumental educator for our wild and very extroverted 2 yr old. He comes home having learned new skills, song, words, animals, good behaviors, etc that I know for 100% have come from her style of gentle nurturing and support. If it was possible to keep him in her class through his daycare years I would, and I've tried:) She has taught him how to interact "gentle" with his peers and others, giving him and his classmates so much love it's expanded his horizons exponentially. He rushes to see her every day and has meant so much. As we enter into the last week of a wonderful year, I couldn't imagine leaving a review without recognizing the amazing staff that greet every family with so much enthusiasm and vigor each day, Ms Patty and Ms Andrea bring the kids in pumped for a fun day where they feel so loved. Abby and Joan and Ally in the preschool class are exceptional at nurturing young minds and young big emotions with our 4 yr old, helping him articulate and express his interests, make friendships and be respectful to themselves and others. Finally the swim staff, Brendan & Danielle who have helped generate a love of the water, safety, fun and excitement are incredible. There have been so many wonderful people that are a part of this place, we are so grateful.

She is basically mute, and they didn't tell me or ever once encourage her to speak. I told the director, Stephanie about the multiple OTHER policy violations I noticed and she did absolutely nothing about it, so I pulled her out, reported them to the state, and I'm sending my kid to therapy. Don't send your kids here, there is an investigation forthcoming. I have seen other small children being pulled up from the floor by their arms and being called names. This place is rife with abuse.
