Upstairs is a ton of cardio equipment and a room for stretching or using the medicine balls. There are also basketball courts, a walking track and racquetball. The place is always clean and the staff is friendly. The weight room can get busy around 5:00pm but we've never had a problem finding a machine upstairs to use. We're very happy with this gym.

It never feels overcrowded, which makes it easy to take your time and move comfortably through your workout. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and always accommodating. As for the pool area, I haven't used it yet, but it's reassuring to see a lifeguard always on duty. The view of the pool from the gym is a nice touch, and the space itself is thoughtfully designed with both a kids' area and a full size pool for laps. One of these days, I'll definitely have to take advantage of it. Great job City of Tamarac

I would understand if it was closed during the months of November - January because it's cold but it's hot now!!!

I found Croissant Park Pool while staying at my sister-in-law's in Ft. Lauderdale. I love swimming,…read moreand wanted something to do while she was at work. I went for the Aqua-Zen & Hydro-Fitness classes. The teachers were both great; energetic and engaging. The classes were a mix of people. Lots of boaters, but that might be true for anything in Ft. Lauderdale. Water aerobics is easier on the joints so while it's good for everyone, it's one of the few exercises people can do if they have joint issues, or are recovering from an injury. While it isn't the same as swimming laps, I was definitely sore after my first class. I also like that classes are often back-to-back. So if you're like me and want to do two classes in a row it's easy to do. Your first class is free. If you just want to try it, see what it's like, you can go at no charge to you. If you enjoy it classes end up costing about $4 a class. Much more reasonable than Soul Cycle or Orange Theory and still a great work out. And it's outside! Hydro Fitness*: Monday, Wednesday, Friday 10 - 11 a.m. Water Aerobics I Schedule*: Monday, Wednesday, Friday 8:30 - 9:30 a.m. Saturday 10 - 11 a.m. Aqua Zen Schedule*: Wed 11:15 a.m. - 12:15 p.m. Pricing: Resident: $30/10-visits $75/30-visits Non-Resident: $45/10-visits $112.50/30-visits Senior/Military Resident: $15/10-visits $45/30-visits Senior/Military Non-Resident: $25/10-visits $75/30-visits If you wanted to do your own lap swim routine, Adult Swim is at the same time as the classes. There are lockers on site. Bring your own lock. Everyone in the class was also really nice. I think they said they even go out to lunch once a month. If you're into water sports it's a good way to get some water based cross training in.

They have a wide range of…read moredifficulties, ranging from the tough (Body Combat) to ones geared for seniors such as chair yoga. I prefer the middle range with classes like Pilates and barre. I do wish they would mix up the class times once in a while because I've been going for about two years and schedule hasn't changed much so I end up doing the same classes each week. The instructor Jennifer is great. I love that she does different things each week so I don't get bored with it. The place is clean, large, good staff, nice pool. I like the E gym so you don't have to adjust weights as it remembers when you scan your bracelet. They have a lot of community/family based events.

1 Star -- Extremely Disappointed After 6 Years as YMCA Members…read more Unfortunately, after what happened today, we decided to cancel our YMCA membership and our children's swimming lessons. We have been YMCA members for six years. We have used this facility regularly, our children have taken swimming lessons here, and we have invested a lot of time and money into this membership. That is why today's experience was especially disappointing. I have already left a negative review about this YMCA, but today's situation honestly went beyond what I consider acceptable. This morning, I came to the YMCA for my workout. Around 11:00 AM, as I was leaving, I noticed an older woman in a white car trying to park next to my vehicle. There was no actual parking space available, and she was trying to squeeze into the area between the designated parking spaces. I didn't pay much attention at the time because I was in a hurry to pick up my daughter from daycare. After picking up my children, I returned to my car and discovered significant scratches on the plastic part of my vehicle. The damage was large enough that the paint had been completely scraped off. I immediately went back to the YMCA, hoping they could check their security cameras and possibly help identify the person responsible. Instead, I was told that they could not review the cameras themselves and that I needed to call the police. I was told that they would review the footage only if the police requested it. We called the police. An officer came and documented the incident. However, he did not even go inside the YMCA to review or request the camera footage. He simply explained that cameras of this type are often not clear enough to identify a license plate or a person's face. What I found especially frustrating is that there seemed to be no attempt to look for another way to identify the person. Even if the video quality was not good enough to clearly see the license plate or face, I suggested checking the approximate time of the incident and comparing it with the YMCA's membership check-in records. Members scan their membership when entering the facility. I had seen exactly where the woman went after parking, so it seemed reasonable to at least check whether someone matching the description entered the building around that time. Instead, I felt completely left on my own. I understand that the YMCA cannot be responsible for every incident that happens in its parking lot. I am not expecting the YMCA to pay for my car or to magically identify the driver. But after six years as a member, I expected basic cooperation, communication, and a genuine effort to help when something like this happened on YMCA property. The damage to my car was upsetting, but the lack of assistance and the way the situation was handled was even more disappointing. After six years, this was the final straw for us. We canceled our membership today and also canceled our children's swimming lessons. Very disappointed that after being loyal members for six years, this is how our relationship with the YMCA ends.
