The people that work here at the front desk are fantastic. Very nice. The men's sauna has been…read moredown for like 12 weeks or so and no one really seems to have any sort of update on when it will be ready. I actually ended up pausing my membership until they get it back up and running. It's really my only complaint but the number one reason I use the gym after a long run.

I sadly need to update my review to emphasize that the men's locker room is still not maintained or…read morecleaned on a regular basis whatsoever. I have been a member here for years, and continue to watch the conditions deteriorate. I have notified management, and they always have the same response: "we let our cleaning company and maintenance team know about the issues" ... and then absolutely nothing happens. I haven't been able to use the steam room in weeks because the mold has gotten so bad and the stench is unbearable. There is hair, grime/dirt and refuse all over the floors, walls and benches which doesn't get cleaned up. There is an mold in the shower area ceiling, walls, and stalls/curtain which continues to grow worse every week. There are also flies in the shower area year round and they have been there for years. You can watch them crawl all over the ceiling and the stalls as you shower, and sometimes they land on you. I give Lu Brito credit for sitting down with me several months ago and acknowledging all the issues I pointed out in my previous review. He agreed that there was a big problem, and that he would be really keeping a close eye to make sure that the Men's locker room started to be cleaned again. He assured me that they would take a "proactive" approach instead of a "reactive" one. But basically, several small repairs were made to rotting or broken infrastructure, and absolutely nothing changed in terms of cleanliness. No lasting changes occurred as a result of that conversation which is why I am writing this update. I am appalled that the executive director Debbie Fringuelli continues to be passive towards these concerns and doesn't play a more active role in addressing the issues. The photos speak for themself. This is not a sanitary environment, and staff continues to gaslight by saying that "the locker room is cleaned nightly." You can literally observe the large cobwebs grow bigger over the mold which proves that is untrue. I have belonged to dozens of gyms in my life, all over the country. This is by far the most neglected facility I have ever been to. They recently raised rates (twice) and I seriously have no idea where that money is going but it is certainly not going towards cleaning or maintaining the facility. Bottom line is they need to clean up their act, and this facility. The male patrons of the Gleason YMCA deserve better.

They put her in a class with four more experienced girls, all of whom knew each other - and the "coach" subsequently ignored those girls making fun of our daughter for not knowing as much. 2. When we brought this to the manager's (Keri) attention, they validated our concerns: "Both the coach and I had to stop the class and talk to them about their behavior several times." But their suggested solution was to move our daughter out of the class instead of continuing to make the other children improve their behavior. When I mentioned a partial refund, she couldn't get off the phone quickly enough. 3. We followed up about this numerous times, and after speaking to us twice, Keri stopped returning our calls. Eventually, we had leave work to visit the business in-person - only to be told that it would be best if they gave us a refund for the remainder of the class (but NOT the poor first few classes) and that she stopped attending. It is very clear that GAB is more interested in money than in helping build kids' confidence and manners. We won't be sending any more business their way, and advise others to stay away.

Awful experience for a birthday party at the NORWOOD LOCATION - look for alternatives (ACTON…read moreLOCATION IS GREAT). Had my daughter's birthday party at Gymnastic Academy of Boston in Norwood, and it was a mess from start to finish. VERY poorly organized and badly managed. I had to decorate the party room by myself with the help of other parents since staff was nowhere to be found. Parents were unsure where to go and had to call me to ask for directions. Party didn't start on time since the coached weren't welcoming the kids inside the gym. I wasn't able to attend the actual gym activities and take pictures because I was left with decorating and organizing the party room, including serving all the pizza and cake, making sure that kids were served when they got to the actual room. The place was left to be "run by" 2 young teenage girls, that were also the coaches who were supposed to supervise the kids and coach them through the activities- needless to say how that went.It was clear that they were underqualified, affecting the quality of the event. The only time one of the girls appeared was 10 min before the end to let me know that if we exceed the time, we will have to pay, she did care to say that while I was sweating, serving cake to the kids and even after witnessing that she just left. During the gym time, there was hardly any supervision for the kids, and they were jumping around dangerously, almost hurting each other, I heard that from multiple parents after the event was over (what an embarrassment). To make matters worse, I called the business after and asked to speak with the manager, Cindy, who returned my call after many follow ups. I explained that I would like to see the safety and staff issues addressed and compensation is more than appropriate. She assured me that she will call me back to touch base and never did. I followed up by phone and email and eventually received a reply from one of the employees offering 1 camp day. I replied that are all set for camp and that's far from an appropriate response for the organization and safety issues experienced as paying customers. I have not heard back since. This could have been resolved efficiently if my complaints were recognized and assured to be addressed along with appropriate compensation. Since neither happened I felt being brushed off which aggravated the situation even more. I am not the complaining type but given that this was my daughters birthday party and the feeling of being treated as a nuisance rather than a respected customer I decided to call the higher management and complain not only about how the event went but also about the management's unprofessional and disrespectful behavior towards their customers. I spoke with Jamie, who is the owner of the Acton location, and he was terrific and overall a great manager. He explained that the 3 GAB locations are individually owned, and he is in charge of the Acton location, while Miss Cindy is in charge of the Norwood location and is actually the daughter of the establishing founders. This is really unfortunate because if you have a problem, Cindy is the person in charge and good luck in getting an appropriate problem-solving solution from her or being taken seriously as a paying customer. Jamie really cares about his business and his clients and took full responsibility for our poorly executed event, apologizing for it and offering to throw my kids next bday party in the Acton location. He even mentioned that he tried himself to speak with Cindy about our event but is still waiting to hear back from her since she is traveling (which often seems the case every time I tried to contact her). Jamie successfully salvaged the reputation of the Acton location and I will be more than happy to conduct future business with him. This post is an adequate closure for me to let other present and future paying costumers know how this business operates. Just sad that it affected my daughters special birthday party that we were all so looking forward to.

I regret to inform Parents who have children attending this Daycare. My grandson started this…read moredaycare less than a year ago. At first he got a common cold in 2 weeks there. Then after we got that to kind of clear out he got severe nasal and congestion infection which caused green Mucus and he need breathing treatments from the hospital. At this time the Director and I had a conversation and I expressed my frustrations. I spoke about what was the Cleaning procedures in the classroom at the end of the day. I started to pick him up and only then did I start smelling bleach or sanitizer when i picked him up. The teachers in Ms Brittany's class are young so I asked what certifications they had or do they have children of their own which I never got an answer. I told my daughter it was time to take him out. The director asked her to give them the opportunity to prove themselves to be trust that there would be no more illnesses. then about a month later he got pink eye !!! Now im really upset but my daughter says Mom you might be right this place is Not experienced enough. Now a month later he has a skin infection on his skin by his private area which we were told it is contagious and transferred by changing one child and not washing your hands or using gloves during changing time . It is clearing up THANK GOD but i worry about the scar it might leave in his skin . He will NEVER Return to this Place ever Again!!! I just want people to know that our experience with this Daycare is HORRIBLE. If your child has this same issue with Brittany's class it will not stop being a Problem. I Urge you Parents to ask about Change time and what illness are children still able to attend with illnesses that can be contagious. My daughter has to work and I had to stop working to take are of my grandbaby. I care about children and wanted to let Parent s Know your child will experience illnesses that could have been Avoid with Clean a sanitary routines . He is getting better and we are looking for a MUCH Better and Clean Daycare . HAVE LEADERS WHOM KNOW WHAT IT IS TO KEEP SICK CHILDREN SEPARATED OR STAY HOME UNTIL FEELING BETTER. I THINK THEY NEED A better DIRECTOR WHO KNOWS HOW TO KEEP Kids healthy and Happy everyday. I have pictures of every time he got sick ,the affects are pain he endured . I would NEVER recommend this Daycare to ANYONE

I love being a member of this Y! First of all, it's really big and it took me a long time to get…read morethe run of the place. I'm still finding new rooms and amenities that make my membership really worthwhile. Most recently, I discovered the 18+ women's locker room, which is separate from the regular women's locker room and it is absolutely wonderful! It's pretty quiet in there, and it includes vanities, hairdryers, a pumping lounge, a sauna, changing rooms, and lockers. It's a very comfortable space for women, which I can really appreciate! I'm also a big fan of the yoga classes here. Tuesday night's "gentle yoga" is a great class with a fantastic instructor. I always look forward to going! There is a little bit of the spiritual aspect of yoga thrown in, but it is not too much. It is mostly focused on the yoga itself. And while it is a slower-paced class, the instructor will suggest ways to make a pose more challenging. Thursday night yoga is also a good time, and a great workout. It feels more like a fitness class, but it still retains that zen yoga energy. There are also day-use lockers that do not require a separate lock - just entering your own code - next to the yoga studio, which makes storing all my stuff really easy. There is also a lot of workout equipment! There is a good variety of machines for cardio (I love the cardio mezzanine, it's such a nice space overlooking the weight room) as well as for weights. When I do not want to workout in the weight room, I can go into one of their gymnasiums and use the free weights in there as long as there are no classes going on. In general, the Y is pretty clean and updated. The only exception is the regular woman's locker room. The staff have always been kind to me and very helpful when I need something. As for parking, the lot gets pretty hectic. It's on a somewhat busy side street off of a busy main road. The lot itself is tight and strict about the use of the parking pass. Overall, there is a lot offered here and I have always been pleased with my experience here.

But more importantly, the owner and her staff are fantastic. They are so nice to my 3 year old son. They are patient and kind and I trust them 100% to take care of my son. They have a ton of classes on their schedule to accommodate families with even the busiest schedules. For little ones like my toddler, the lessons are more about gross motor, balance and coordination skills rather than actual gymnastics moves though they do actually sprinkle in some actual gymnastics stances even for the little guys. They also have two free play times each week that any member can attend so that the kids can get exercise more than just on their class day. During the winter months I worry about my son getting enough exercise, so this is a real plus in my eyes. Tumble Fun also hosts birthday parties and sometimes have "kids nights out" where they take care of the kids in the evening, let them play in the gym and give them treats to eat. Oh, and they have a bouncy house INSIDE the gym! I think that's totally cool. :) So to summarize, this gym rocks! Sign your kids up for the next session. You won't regret it.
