This is a shout out to Matt at Rreal Fitness. I signed up for a free evaluation with Matt for…read morestrength training. I did this because I was experiencing a lot of pain in my back and what felt like tennis elbow every time I worked out. As a middle-aged woman I wanted to incorporate more strength training to get stronger but also increase muscle mass and tone some areas. I'd been lifting for over four years and hadn't noticed a difference and was always in pain. From my initial evaluation all the way up until I finished 12 sessions, Matt taught me how to lift properly, how to engage the mind muscle connection, how to use my abs and my glutes to get more out of each exercise. Today I am pain-free, can I say that again, pain-free...and seeing results and it's amazing! I feel so different than I did just two months ago. Matt is engaging, encouraging, great at explaining and demonstrating the exercises, his workouts are well thought out and actually fun because you don't feel like you're killing yourself and still getting results. Thank you Matt for being awesome and thank you Bobby for opening up Rreal Fitness, I feel like a new person!!

Outdated equipment - especially the bikes that are so old and really not usable. Only one bike has…read morea seat that is not broken. The bikes were so close together and during Covid it was a challenge to workout on the bikes. I was promised that there would be new bikes -- instead they just kept putting more equipment around the bikes, making it harder to get around. The steam room never worked and was promised a sauna -- ever happened. Then the duct tape started appearing on the equipment. It is standard in all gyms that people wipe down the machine after use -- and here there is no sign, and way too many people do not wipe the equipment after use.

Towels seem to be the distinguishing factor--a premium club standard--but they were small and threadbare. Now I bring my own towels to Planet Fitness, and for under $20 I'm getting the same workout and a (much) cleaner shower. I too have pics of mold in SSAC showers, which I took to the front desk when they questioned it. In the end, SSAC was able to charge my card for months though I stopped going. It was my fault, because I'm bad about canceling memberships or returning things at stores. But then finally my card expired and when SSAC couldn't get more from it, I received an obnoxious, over-the-top letter from a lawyer. No doubt, they're technically in the right ("per the agreement"), but after years of patronage, legal threats strike me as bad form. It would have been better to ask if there was a reason I left, and whether they might do anything to bring me back.

OK, I get it that Zumba is all about making workouts fun and bringing the joys of dance and music…read moreto everyone, but I can honestly say, after having tried most of the Zumba classes in the Boston area, that I cannot stand when a class is taught by an instructor who has less dance skills, rythym, and coordination than a bobble head on the dashboard of a pick up truck. This is where Jackie comes in, an accomplished dancer and fitness professional. The Zumba classes at Bodyfit just get better and better. Jackie incorporates bollywood, various latin dances, hip hop, swing, and other dance styles to keep things interesting. I don't get bored (this is a feat in itself for me) and I really like that Jackie cycles high intensity songs interspersed with low intensity to keep that metabolism going. I have learned so much about dance, it never feels like a workout, and it is super affordable.

I love this place! I was looking for a good Zumba class in the area. Like the other reviewers I've…read morebeen to some pretty bad classes. One that I took at my gym was entertaining in that I've never seen anyone do Latin dance moves with a bored expression on their face. Jackie is not playing around. The moves are fast, she will seek you out if you are totally lost, and she is always enjoying herself. After trying one class for free (go to her website and print out a pass) I decided to pay the monthly fee ($59). Unlike some places she doesn't put rigid restrictions on passes. I'm going to spend the month taking each of her classes and figuring out which ones I want to continue. I find her Zumba class very challenging, but I also really liked her kickboxing class.
